As the boomerang effect of the sanctions on Russia starts to be felt in Europe, adding to the hyperinflation of commodity prices in household bills, the mood of the European population is rapidly shifting from a gung-ho endorsement of the anti-Russia policy to a real revolt against the established elites. This is most visible in the mass strike which has […]

On July 10, Le Monde and 40 other main papers which are part of the International Consortium of investigative journalists (ICIJ), published “The Uber Files”, with revelations from 124,000 private e-mails and documents leaked by former lobbyist and Uber official Mark MacGann, to the British daily The Guardian.

Does the name Eric Heymann sound familiar? This newsletter covered a 2020 paper he wrote, asserting that the European transition policy to a “zero carbon” economy would not be possible without “some sort of eco-dictatorship” (cf. SAS 3/21).

The hopes of the United States and Europe to align developing countries behind their anti-Russia and anti-China policy were brutally dashed at the meeting of G20 foreign ministers in Bali, Indonesia July 7-8.

Whatever Western leaders may think of Vladimir Putin and his policies, they would do well to listen to his view of how the world is evolving and why. He expressed just that clearly in remarks to the Duma on July 7 (English translation available here). His criticism of the West’s policy is shared by a large majority of the world, […]

Astute observers see in the assassination on July 8 of former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe a dangerous show of force by the war party. The message is clear: any leader or nation that breaks ranks on the anti-Russia and anti-China policy will suffer the consequences. Shinzo Abe was the most powerful political leader in Japan, and among the strongest […]

The perfect storm of hyperinflation, energy shortages, a resurgence of COVID and industrial layoffs is now starting to hit the EU. It could have been fully avoided, had governments: 1. prevented the ECB from bailing out the bankrupt financial system with hyperinflationary monetary expansion; 2. avoided the flight forward out of fossil fuels; 3. carried out at the very least a feasibility study […]
