CSIS reports that "Russia will continue having the capacity to build missiles and drones and will continue to use them" and that "this reality will not change until the war ends".

It turns out that the "evil Chinese spy balloon" was exactly what Beijing kept claiming it was – an actual weather balloon. The Pentagon is now saying it found no evidence whatsoever that it was collecting anything but weather data.

It seems the UK is now "expressing frustration" at the way its MBTs are being used, complaining that the "guarantees" given by the Kiev regime forces are "simply insufficient". Afraid of heavy losses, as demonstrated by the disastrous performance of German MBTs, long considered the best in NATO, London is looking for ways to limit their usage by the Neo-Nazi junta forces in order to prevent a similar fate for its prized MBTs.

Russian President Vladimir Putin was right in his assessments that NATO-sourced long-range weapons in the hands of the Neo-Nazi junta would be an existential threat to Russia and that Moscow would never allow any mass deployment of such missiles along its western borders.

Even the Pentagon seems to be in quiet panic, as it announced the invoking of the Defense Production Act to boost the domestic mining and processing capacity of gallium and germanium. This is because gallium is one of the key elements used in the production of advanced AESA (active electronically scanned array) radars.

Zelensky's unhinged commentary is deeply dividing for virtually all NATO members, as none of them wants to be destroyed in minutes for the sake of a corrupt Neo-Nazi regime.

It wasn't precisely clear why Putin "suddenly" had to emphasize the importance of Russia's hypersonic weapons and other key strategic systems. Namely, in early July, the US Army reported that it has demonstrated the operational capability of its newest ground-based missile launcher with the system's recent successful firing of a "Tomahawk" land-attack cruise missile.

While China avoids using its economic might for geopolitical purposes, it has demonstrated to NATO what it's like when the Asian giant actually does what the belligerent alliance has previously accused it of doing.

Strangely, the troubled Biden administration has been successful in preventing Congress from creating an inspector general's office that would finally provide the much-needed oversight for the massive weapons shipments to the Kiev regime.

Due to unrivaled advances in Russian missile capabilities, particularly the development of the scramjet-powered hypersonic cruise missiles such as "Zircon", as well as the hybrid subsonic-supersonic family of "Kalibr" missiles, both of which are highly compact, even smaller Russian warships have become capable of engaging targets at extreme ranges.

Corriere della Sera states that both urban and rural areas are essentially empty, while countless families have been divided (likely forever), particularly as wives of many soldiers forcibly deployed on the frontlines have gone abroad and never returned. It insists that Ukraine is going through a catastrophic demographic crisis and that the population collapse will soon cause very serious economic and social problems in the country.

The exact motivation Berlin might have to go against Moscow once again is up for debate, particularly as Russia inflicted numerous crushing defeats on various German invaders in the last over 1000 years.

The US-led political West is certainly not shying away from (ab)using Ukrainians for whatever purpose it finds profitable and/or useful for itself. Whether it's the easier recruitment of spies, less stringent control of sex trafficking (including of underage children) or the immense profit for NATO's Military Industrial Complex (MIC), it's all up for sale and war drives down the prices.

Kissinger's room for maneuver was extremely narrow, despite the overall cordiality of his hosts. Beijing is perfectly aware of the rabid hostility and ever-growing Sinophobia in Washington DC, as well as the fact that the belligerent thalassocracy will not change its course anytime soon.

Recent survey by the BVMW (Federal Association of Medium-Sized Businesses) showed that over a quarter (26%) of all CEOs of medium-sized companies are considering shutting down their businesses, while over a fifth (22%) have expressed readiness to move their companies abroad.

🧿 Dragoljub Bosnić is back from holiday to Talk about some of the recent news he has covered for the InfoBRICS online portal, in a less serious manner than he does in text.

Drago tells us about how even some US thinktanks are facing the reality that Russia is, in fact, not going to run out of missiles; how the UK's tanks come with a 'handle with care' warning, and the devastating demographic collapse of the country formerly known as Ukraine.

The continuation of German deindustrialization as they again try to go east, Chinese weather balloons and rare earth minerals as well as their pushback against the collective west's encroachment into the Asia-Pacific region are all also covered.

Fringe conspiracy theories, Russian propaganda and some Memes included.

As the UK directly participated in the creation of this Albanian monstrosity, the way this has backfired cannot be considered anything but a well-deserved poetic justice.

In his "infinite" wisdom, CIA Director William Burns managed to issue virtually identical threats to not one, but two superpowers simultaneously. The result will surely be an even greater integration of Russian and Chinese intelligence efforts and an exponential expansion of their already close cooperation.

While North Korea's portrayal by the mainstream propaganda machine is unflattering, mildly speaking, Shoigu's visit has demonstrated that underestimating Pyongyang isn't only foolish, but also patently dangerous.

Since we're approaching 200 members, I've enabled comments. Looking forward to hearing your opinions directly.

Unrivaled command and control, massively improved ISR, unique combination of active defense and ad hoc (counter)offensive operations, high morale, top-notch training/combat experience and vast technological superiority ensure Russian forces have a comfortable advantage. On the other hand, disorder, insubordination and inadequate coordination plague Kiev regime forces.
