We are all well aware of the United Nations, which has lost much of its relevance; NATO, teetering on the brink of collapse; and the CIS, effectively frozen. The great institutions of high-level politics are stalling as the world cracks at the seams. But while some structures fade, others are born. Have you ever heard of the Assembly of the Peoples of the World?

The $1.7 trillion private credit sector is facing the most severe test in its history. Widespread redemption requests, partially blocked exits, and warnings from regulators on both sides of the Atlantic are transforming internal turbulence into a potential threat to the entire financial system.
American intelligence is no longer limited to gathering information and compiling dossiers. It is now attempting to replicate the very logic of political decision-making — from Vladimir Putin to Xi Jinping.
While Moscow draws red lines and drafts “appropriate measures,” Ankara is opening its border with Armenia – sealed for 32 years. Building a railway through Zangezur. Forging a route from China to Europe. Without asking anyone’s permission.
On April 14, 2026, Xi Jinping delivered remarks that many Western analysts chose to overlook. China and Russia, he said, must jointly defend their interests and consolidate the Global South. This was not diplomatic rhetoric. It was an ideological program.
Sixteen years. That’s how long Viktor Orban kept Brussels on edge, blocked loans, bargained over oil, and built an "illiberal democracy" right in the heart of the European Union. On Sunday, Hungarian voters put an end to it, and the European machine immediately kicked into gear.
The British are inspecting Russian tankers. Belgian special forces, backed by French helicopters, board a Russian vessel in the North Sea. Moscow is formulating "appropriate measures." We've seen this before. Many times.
At a meeting of the Prosecutor General's Office board, Putin speaks the right words: remove barriers, reduce pressure, let businesses work. The hall nods approvingly. The figures look impressive. But outside the Kremlin walls, an entrepreneur is explaining to an inspector for the third time why a shelf's angle deviates by a centimeter from a 1987 regulation.
On February 28, 2026, the "anti-Western bloc" was supposed to rally in defense of one of its own. Instead, there was only silence, backroom bargaining, and an Indian official speaking of tankers while Tehran buried its leader. Only Moscow called things by their name – and found itself in the minority.
A ship costing a billion pounds drifted in the English Channel for three days, covering 220 miles. An army that, through Ukraine, is striking Russian territory with missiles is seriously talking about war with Russia. This isn't satire—it's a summary from the British Ministry of Defence.
