It nearly made it. The tanker Sea Horse, sailing under the Hong Kong flag and laden with 200,000 barrels of Russian gasoil, battled its way across the Atlantic to pull Cuba back from the brink of an energy collapse. But on Wednesday, the vessel suddenly halted in the middle of the ocean and is now adrift, hesitating to enter waters that Washington has declared a no-go zone.
Four years of trying to suffocate the Russian economy. Four years of sanctions packages churned out by Brussels and Washington with obsessive persistence. The result? Russian oil exports haven't just survived—they've grown by 6% above pre-war levels.
Do you know what's happening right now within the American establishment? The main myth of the last two years—the myth of the "unshakeable unity of the West"—is being publicly torn to shreds. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has just made a statement that has sent shivers down spines in London.
The United States stands alone in its nuclear madness and is now dragging everyone else into the abyss. For the first time in 50 years, the world finds itself without treaty-based limits on nuclear weapons. Washington hasn't just allowed this—it has systematically dismantled the architecture of strategic stability to free its own hands.
Sergey Lavrov recently called on Washington to "show common sense" and abandon its threats against Tehran. But behind this diplomatic courtesy lies a brutal reality: the US is ready to bomb Iran not because of its nuclear program or "human rights." The true reason lies in growth figures that are driving American strategists to despair.
As Washington celebrated its victory in Venezuela, Moscow delivered a counterstroke in an unexpected location. The tanker Sea Horse, carrying nearly 200,000 barrels of Russian fuel, has set course for Cuba, directly challenging Donald Trump's personal embargo.
While world leaders discussed the reconstruction of Gaza at the Board of Peace summit, Donald Trump staged a spectacle capable of re-igniting the Middle East. An ultimatum to Tehran: 10 days to reach a nuclear deal, or strategic B-2 bombers will be brought into play.
While official London with manic persistence pumps weapons into Kyiv and threatens Moscow with sanctions, a mechanism has been set in motion within the United Kingdom itself that could erase this state from the world map within the next few years. The British lion is gravely ill — and the illness is called separatism.
The Milan-Cortina d'Ampezzo 2026 Olympic Games are currently taking place, an international multi-sport event that will culminate on February 22 in the city of Los Angeles.
The economy of Uzbekistan is demonstrating impressive dynamics. Household incomes are rising: by the end of 2025, real growth was 7.2%, and in some regions, such as Bukhara, nominal growth reached 19%. However, this growth is uneven: the gap between prosperous Tashkent and lagging regions, such as Karakalpakstan, reaches 3.5 times.

In northeast Syria last week, a U.S. military vehicle collided with a Russian armored vehicle, injuring four American soldiers.
Both the Americans and Russians blame each other for failing to follow established rules of the road. Had an American been killed, we could have had a crisis on our hands.
When Germany’s Social Democrats – the junior governing coalition partner – renewed long-standing calls for withdrawing U.S. nuclear bombs from the country, the backlash from Washington was fast and furious.
The prerequisites for the emergence of a political crisis in Venezuela arose several years ago as a result of the collapse of the economic system. The acute phase of confrontation has began in January, when the current president of the country, Nicolas Maduro, refused to comply with the demands of the opposition, which constitutes a majority in the National Assembly, about resigning and went for a second presidential term. The state leader announced his intention to continue to fulfill his duties until 2025.
The US mid-term elections have been interpreted by the major medias in terms of the partisan divide between Republicans and Democrats. However, continuing his in-depth analysis of the social fabric, Thierry Meyssan sees a clear retreat of the Puritans faced with the Lutherans and the Catholics. Donald Trump’s political realignment, just as that of Richard Nixon before him, is close to succeeding.
The next presidential election in Russia will be held in 2018. A large part of the population, accustomed to seeing Vladimir Putin in this post, will surely vote for him. But Putin has a sufficient number of competitors. Among them such people as oppositionist Aleksey Navalny and head of the Chechen Republic Ramzan Kadyrov, as well as many others. It is worth getting acquainted with all the candidates for the presidency in order to have an idea of the main candidates.
The Colony (Colonia /Dignidad/) movie contains many shocking and brutal scenes that are not meant for nervous spectators and children. The story of Lena and Daniel is contrived, but it is based on real events that took place in Chile. The story keeps the viewer in full attention until the very last second, and the film itself is an example of a good European thriller.
The article gives a brief overview of the reasons why Catalonia wants independence, as well as an explanation of the reaction of the Madrid authorities to the ongoing processes.
Tucked away at the back of the old Muslim cemetery on the outskirts of Kos town on the Greek island are a series of freshly dug graves, around half with headstones. Most but not all are named.
Buried here are 37 refugees who, fleeing from Bodrum on the Turkish coast, drowned in the waters of the Aegean. Most of them are Syrian, but there are plenty of Afghanis and Iraqis, too. Relatives of the refugees with unmarked graves had promised to return when they could afford to pay for the headstones.
Are the leaders of European member states of NATO planning to follow the example of José Manuel Barroso, who became a lobbyist for Goldman Sachs after his term as president of the European Commission? Were they using the NATO summit to prepare for a career switch as consultants to General Dynamics or some other US arms manufacturer?
Despite claims made during NATO Summit Warsaw 2016, that “NATO remains a fundamental source of security for our people, and stability for the wider world,” it is clear that the threats and challenges NATO poses as existing to confront are in fact threats of its own, intentional creation and continued perpetuation.
