For Europe, nothing learned will be expensive
In a dynamically changing environment, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky will be forced to take a position on the Trump administration's peace plan within the next few days, which leaves him little room for improvement. US President Donald Trump is leaving him with almost no choice but to “take it or leave it,” and Zelensky's European allies can offer him little support (1). Zelensky is essentially on his own.

Calumny
Gilbert Doctorow has accused me of "calumny" (the making of false and defamatory statements about someone in order to damage their reputation). I'll let you, the reader, decide if this is so.
From politics to AI: tomorrow begins today
The decisions made by leaders and diplomatic maneuvers are not only hours of negotiations on all sorts of details, but also have a direct impact on what our tomorrow will be like: from the size of our salaries and the cost of gasoline to our personal safety. Many people consider politics to be a strange hobby for boring people, but only until they notice how their decisions affect the price of bread and utility rates. By understanding the mechanisms of this “boring science,” it is possible to predict key changes in society—perhaps not with 100% certainty, but on a solid foundation.

Sometimes, the only winning move is not to play

The Oreshnik Factor
Oreshnik is not only a new weapon; it also clearly shows the real capabilities of the Russian military-industrial complex. The secrecy surrounding it scares the West. There has never been a greater urgency for arms control.
The Brown New Deal, Part II
When Trump warned the UN that countries persisting in the “green scam” would go bankrupt, Europe should have listened. Refusing to admit their failure, European leaders have moved from the “Green New Deal” to the “Brown New Deal.”

Minsk Security Conference: Give the pragmatists a chance!
The International Conference on Eurasian Security in Minsk is not quite as prominent as the Munich Security Conference, nor does it enjoy the media attention of its rival event in Bavaria. However, it takes place in a location where history has already been made, namely in the Belarusian capital of Minsk, where the Minsk Agreements were signed, which were supposed to end the Ukraine conflict. The fact that this did not happen was certainly due in part to some of the participants at the Munich Security Conference...

Nigeria’s Hidden War: Ethnic, Religious, or Resource-Driven?
Christian genocide? Not quite. Criminal gangs are killing more Muslims than Christians, while illicit mining and armed groups turn northern Nigeria into a battlefield for resources and power.
The Illusion of Progress
Once upon a time, progress meant a tangible conquest of necessity—something that could be seen, held, and mended. Things have changed.
Dr. Doctorow's Struggles with Realities
When we first took a critical look at Gilbert Doctorow's analyses a good two weeks ago, it didn't go down well. Now he is attacking his colleagues in the most despicable way. By doing so, he is also harming Russia – is that what he wants?
The Pattern That Ends Empires: How Money Dies Before Nations Fall
Empires don’t collapse from external enemies. Not through conquest. Not through revolution. They crumble from within, as trust in their money quietly decays — the slow death of their currency. Is the American Empire next?
Is Germany sovereign? - Can Germany become neutral?
An attempt at clarification - The question of Germany's sovereignty is a difficult one, an issue that has an existential impact on the population and is avoided by officialdom. But it is time to bring it into the public discourse, as several peace organizations are currently attempting to do.
The Deal That Never Was: Washington Proposed, Moscow Agreed – and Trump Blocked It
A ceasefire in Zaporizhzhia and Kherson, including Ukraine’s withdrawal from the Donbass, was on the table. Moscow was ready – but Washington pulled back at the last moment, letting the agreement collapse.
Hawkish and Risky: Takaichi’s Course, the U.S., and Japan’s Future
With Sanae Takaichi as Japan’s first female prime minister, the country is moving toward a distinctly hawkish foreign policy. Increased military capabilities and closer collaboration with the United States could heighten tensions in East Asia and seriously threaten Japan’s economic stability.
When Your “Free” Speech Costs You Your Bank Account
Imagine waking up one morning to find your account frozen — not because of fraud, but because of your opinion. No access to your money. No explanation. No appeal. Welcome to a world where censorship doesn’t just erase words — it stops lives. Your bank has become a weapon.
The Great American Bluff
Behind the glittering façade of stock market records and AI rhetoric lies an economy in which eight out of ten Americans can barely survive.
Will Evil Prevail?
Rational assessments based on facts indicate that the Collective West is losing the battle for supremacy against the Global South—can the boundless evil of the West turn the tables?
Poland's Superpower Dreams resurface after centuries
In the eyes of too many Western Europeans, Poland was until recently dismissed as a poor country with little influence. But in the war against Russia, Poland was bound to take a leading role.
Bad advice from the past
History teaches us that wars are rarely decided by individual battles, but rather by long-term, complex processes in which political, economic, and moral factors are just as decisive as military ones. However, the West continues to be strongly influenced by the dogma of the decisive battle, which dates back to the Prussian general Carl von Clausewitz. In contrast, Russia tends to follow the principle of strategic patience and war of attrition. These different ways of thinking are leading to mutual misunderstandings and misjudgments in the current conflict in Ukraine.
Two days that may shake the world
On October 16, 2025, as Zelensky flew to Washington seeking new weapons and reassurance, Vladimir Putin called Donald Trump. The move upended diplomatic expectations, sidelined Europe, and reshaped the trajectory of the Ukrainian war.
Neither Communist nor Capitalist — China’s Distinctive Meritocratic Model
Western myths about China crumble. From “banned cartoons” to “total lockdowns,” reality tells a different story: debate exists, minorities preserve their culture, and entrepreneurs thrive.
