Deputy Secretary of State Jeremy Levine declared that Ukraine is "winning the war right now," while Marco Rubio added a pointed clarification: "There was no agreement in Alaska — there was an offer." Russia has been deceived again. And once again, those who should have seen it coming did not. This is no longer a coincidence or a mistake. It is a system.

Venezuela hit a seven-year export high in May 2026, shipping 1.25 million barrels per day — a 61% year-on-year surge. The comeback is being framed as a recovery story for state oil company PDVSA, but behind the record numbers lies not Venezuelan sovereignty — it's a Washington-engineered regime change and a deliberate transfer of control over oil flows to American and Western traders.

At the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, Kirill Dmitriev called on Europe to resume imports of Russian gas and restart pipeline supplies via Nord Stream. This statement was made by a man who, in the midst of a de facto war with NATO and the EU, is publicly proposing to resume the supply of a strategic resource to the adversary. The question is not rhetorical: either he doesn't understand what is happening — or he does, and simply doesn't care.

What This Story Is Really About

On April 28, at the Alpha Summit, Central Bank Governor Elvira Nabiullina made a statement rarely heard from a regulator: Russia is facing a labor shortage unprecedented in the country’s modern history. “We have never had a situation like this,” she said, adding that the labor market is now driving the Central Bank’s key decisions on interest rates and monetary policy. For a regulator typically known for measured statements, this was an unmistakable alarm signal.

Numbers That Speak for Themselves

The figure is staggering. In 2025, the number of migrants in the European Union reached 64.2 million — approximately 14% of the EU’s total population. Within a single generation, Europe has transformed into the world’s largest migration space. And this is no longer merely demographic statistics — it is a political and social time bomb.

Record After Record

The market was supposed to save the planet.

That, at least, was the argument of many economists grappling with the problem of climate change. As fossil fuels became scarcer, they pointed out, the price of oil and natural gas would go up. And then other options, like solar and wind, would become cheaper, particularly as investment flowed into that sector and drove down the cost of new technologies.

And voila: The invisible hand would gradually turn down the global thermostat.

Paris and London are multiplying their categorical declarations against Daesh, its programme of ethnic cleansing and its terrorist attacks. And yet they are preparing in secret for the ethnic cleansing of Northern Syria with a view to creating a pseudo-Kurdistan, and the re-localisation of Daesh to Al-Anbar in order to create a « Sunnistan » there. Thierry Meyssan analyses this plan, and underlines the numerous contradictions in the official discourse.

Is the military intervention by France, Israël and the United Kingdom in Syria legal ?

Qatar has bought sophisticated military equipment from Ukraine on behalf of ISIS. The operation took place in late September 2015, just before the Russian military action against the terrorist organization. It was approved by the US embassy in Doha. Officially, the new emir is not involved in the war in Iraq and Syria.

On the 27th October 2015, a Tupolev 142 made numerous approaches to the aircraft carrier USS Ronald Reagan, which was working on maneuvers with the 7th fleet and the South Korean Navy to the East of the peninsula.

Since April 2014, the Russian Air Force has engaged in a number of actions aimed at testing their system for scrambling NATO communications and commands [1].

The new Secretary General of NATO (NATO), Jens Stoltenberg, denied that the alliance seeks a confrontation with Russia and blamed that the country has deteriorated its bilateral relations.

"NATO continues to aspire for a cooperative relationship with Russia, but to achieve this, Russia has to demonstrate its willing and take clear steps to render it possible," said the secretary in his first speech since taking command of the organization, on October the 1st .
