At the NATO Summit in Lithuania, on July 11-12, the trans-Atlantic powers plan to escalate the war against Russia, while simultaneously expanding the supposedly “North Atlantic” alliance into Asia.

The “Summit for a New Global Financial Pact” in Paris, June 22-23, turned out to be more controversial than host Emmanuel Macron had expected. Among the attendees were many of the leaders of Western European, African and Latin American nations, as well as the heads of the IMF, World Bank, U.S. Treasury Department, the ECB and the European Commission (cf.

As ECB chairwoman Christine Lagarde announced more interest rate hikes for the future on June 27, reactions among economists split between those who said “it’s too much” and those who said “it’s too little”. While the former warn that EU economies are already in a recession and higher interest rates will inflict more damage, the latter insist that inflation in […]

On June 27, in Nanterre, a working-class suburb of Paris, a 17 year old youth, Nahel, was shot and killed in his vehicle by a policeman, during a police control.

As the Environment Committee of the European Parliament failed to reach a majority in favor of the infamous EU “renaturation” bill on June 27, mainstream media launched the alarm: the Green Deal is threatened with failure.

The third week of trading on the stock markets in June ended with a spectacular 37% drop in the shares of Siemens Gamesa. The company, a merger since 2016 of the former wind power division of Siemens Energy and the Spanish wind power system producer Gamesa, had been incurring losses for some time by then, which led Siemens Energy to […]

King Charles III is making a dual killing on the “climate change” hoax: in financial profits from the monetary inflation it is causing, and in the people it is eliminating from the planet. As for the first, the Royal Family could be awarded £111 million from the wind farms built on the Crown Estate, a “windfall” profit of almost £24 […]

According to the latest figures from Brussels, the EU has given Kyiv €72 billion in economic, military, and humanitarian aid since February 2022, draining its coffers. Nonetheless, the European Commission announced in June that it would offer Kyiv an additional €50 billion in loans and grants. That move has been opposed by Hungary, whose Prime Minister Viktor Orbán said on […]

Representatives from 53 African countries (all but one) and 12 international organizations attended the third China-Africa Economic and Trade Expo, which ran from June 29-July 2 in Changsha, Hunan Province. This year’s event attracted 1,500 exhibitors, a jump of 70% compared to the previous Expo. Global Times pointed out that bilateral trade between China and African countries saw a 20-fold […]

Any evaluation of the strategic situation that is not based on the confrontation between Global NATO leaders and Russia, a nuclear power, with the threat of nuclear Armageddon in the equation, misses the point.
