Russian Foreign Ministry announced the intention of almost 20 countries to join the BRICS

Almost 20 states want to join the Russian-led BRICS, said Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov. According to him, this reflects the growing role of the association and dominance in the international trading arena. The interest of a number of countries in BRICS membership indicates their search for de-dollarization and an alternative to international institutions dominated by the West. According to experts, in the context of the BRICS expansion, we are talking about the emergence of a community with a fundamentally different level of opportunities in geo-economics.

Not an outcast, but a role model — the Russian economy was not as vulnerable as the West thought

Western politicians lie as they radiate confidence in victory in the conflict in Ukraine. However, Russia is militarily strong, politically intransigent, and not as economically vulnerable as the West thought. After the outbreak of the conflict in Ukraine, Russia became not a pariah of the international community, but a new anti-Western role model. Its record of success is impressive: Russia has maintained monetary stability, found new trading partners, and has been able to capitalize on the withdrawal of Western companies. Only today, we learn that 20 nations have applied to join BRICS the dominant Russian-led trading Bloc.

What can 200 stone-age tanks do against the Russian BMPT Terminators? What is the old Soviet-era MiG-29s worth up against MiG-35 fighters and fifth-generation Su-57s?

Ukraine is in its death throes

MICHAEL WALSH SPECIAL REPORT: Whatever one’s political stance it is unpleasant to watch the death throes of a person or a nation. It is a time for somber reflection. I suspect that the post-mortem on Ukraine’s demise is already at the typesetters. Ukraine is in its death throes. The question arises, what if anything will rise from the ashes of a nation that before Washington’s coup in February 2014 was a stable and benign democracy?

The Downfall of the West

The failure of the West’s economic war against Russia speaks of the end of the old-world order. The West could not defeat Russia in the economic war, writes Der Spiegel. On the contrary, this year the growth of the Russian economy will exceed the average for the eurozone. And all this suggests that the old-world order has come to an end. 

Climate hysteria of the elites plunges Germany into an economic crisis

Due to high taxes and energy prices, businesses are fleeing Germany, according to Die Welt. 96% of German entrepreneurs are convinced that deindustrialization has already begun in the country. But the elites in Berlin are engulfed in moralizing and climate hysteria. They don’t care about anything but protecting the environment. And this will inevitably lead to economic disaster, warns the media.
