🇷🇺🇬🇧 British sources say the Russian frigate Admiral Grigorovich escorted two “shadow tankers” through the English Channel on Wednesday. The UK support ship RFA Tideforce followed at a distance, monitoring the transit. The Guardian framed it as Putin “mocking” Prime Minister Keir Starmer, who had previously vowed to seize sanctioned Russian vessels.

At the same time, The Telegraph reports that the UK hasn’t detained a single Russian-flagged ship this year, citing government concerns over violating international law.

The pattern is obvious: when Russian vessels sail unprotected, there’s talk of seizures. When they’re escorted by armed warships—and tankers carry security ready to respond—suddenly international law takes priority.

🇷🇺The FSB has detained three more members of Shamil Basayev and Khattab's gangs, who were involved in attacks on Russian military personnel in 1999–2000.

According to the Investigative Committee of Russia, they participated in the invasion of Dagestan and the attack on Pskov paratroopers. At that time, more than 130 servicemen were killed and over 80 were injured.

The terrorists have been charged with committing crimes, including "armed rebellion, participation in a gang, and attempted murder of military personnel".

🇺🇸 It seems that after people like Tucker, Alex, Candace, and others who turned on Trump a while ago, now even the segment of MAGA influencers that remained loyal is starting to turn on Israel.

However, this is most likely an attempt to deflect attention away from Trump and shift the blame for the war entirely onto Israel.

Xi–Zheng Meeting Sends Clear Signal: Peaceful Reunification Framed as Strategic Imperative for China’s Future

Author: Xu Jijun, founder of Han Tang Zhi Ku Analytical Centre

On the morning of 10 April 2026, inside the East Hall of the Great Hall of the People in Beijing, Xi Jinping, General Secretary of the Communist Party of China, met Zheng Liwen, Chair of the Kuomintang. The encounter marked the first meeting between leaders of the two parties in a decade. It unfolded at a moment of mounting global instability and heightened tensions across the Taiwan Strait, giving it both historical weight and immediate political relevance.

The meeting was not merely ceremonial. It articulated a shared position that people on both sides of the Strait seek peace and oppose division. It also set out a political direction aimed at returning cross-Strait relations to a path of peaceful development, with the stated goal of eventual peaceful reunification.

🇷🇺☢️🇪🇺The Economist has published an article about the necessity by the West to maintain scientific relations with Russia despite the geopolitical tension.
"Europe's joint nuclear-fusion project needs Russian expertise,"

🔸The article highlights the ongoing, complex collaboration between Western and Russian scientists on the ITER (International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor) project.

🔸Continued Collaboration Amid Conflict: Despite the geopolitical tensions following Russia's invasion of Ukraine, the article notes that Russian and Western scientists continue to work together at ITER, though the pace has slowed.

🔸 Russia is a founding member of ITER and provides essential components that are difficult to replace, including poloidal field coils (giant magnets) and busbars for the reactor's electrical current.

🔸 While many scientific ties with Russia have been severed, ITER's unique international legal framework makes it nearly impossible to expel a member. However, sanctions have significantly slowed progress due to increased paperwork and logistical challenges in shipping components.

🔸The project, originally a Cold War-era "science diplomacy" initiative by Reagan and Gorbachev, now stands as one of the last remaining high-level scientific links between Russia and the West.
