In order to understand that something is being prepared in Belarus, one did not have to be particularly smart or have exclusive information. Banal logic dictated (I spoke and wrote about this) that in order to hope for success, the planned American operation against Russia should not have been limited to Ukraine’s attack on Donbass. […]
Russian Sinologist Nikolai Vavilov analyzes the situation in Myanmar in the context of the US-China confrontation. What’s going on in Myanmar? Most recently, the opposition of Myanmar, which is now fiercely fighting the military government that has seized power, announced that China has begun to send troops into the border regions of the country.

The situation in long-suffering Ukraine (without any irony towards the country and its people) is developing in such a way that it can be stated that those interested in the conflict, possibly armed [conflict], have completed the pre-war preparatory measures, at least in the diplomatic sphere.

January 20 of the new 2021 is steadily approaching, and just as relentless is the vague feeling, almost physical, that the American nation is missing out on its one chance. Every day this chance is melting, disappearing in nothingness. On January 20, declared president-elect, 78-year-old young promising politician Joseph Biden will officially take over as […]
The 16th big press conference of Russian President Vladimir Putin has drawn a line. In the history of the “concentration of Russia”, a thirty-year period has come to an end, characterized by successively advancing: fascination with the West, doubt in the West, and disillusionment with Western “values”.

A number of materials prepared by the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the Great Victory in Great Patriotic War. Must see. Eternal glory to the fallen heroes.
