#Ukraine

The West has now focused on persuading countries of the Global South to take part in the so-called Peace Summit. Organised without Russia, it purports to find a peaceful resolution to the Ukraine conflict. The sole purpose of this gathering is to promote Vladimir Zelensky’s so-called peace formula, which is a total fraud. It is a list of ultimatums for Russia.

Attempts to determine the outcome of the Ukraine conflict without Russia’s involvement are doomed to failure.

#France #Neocolonialism

French President Emmanuel Macron labelled Russia “the sole colonial power of the 21st century” waging an imperialist war and being a destabilising influence in Africa.

Perorations of this kind are inappropriate considering France’s dubious role in Africa. The international community remembers the dirty pages of Paris’s colonial history; France is still striving to exploit Africa’s resources, masking its neo-colonial methods and schemes with false rhetoric and pretended concern for the Africans’ welfare.

#Moldova

The West, through the Kiev regime, is dragging Moldova into the Ukrainian conflict and what’s more, is regarding it as a possible second Ukraine. The Moldovan authorities are getting closer to becoming direct accomplices of the criminal Kiev authorities, while making their own population hostages.

We have repeatedly pointed out to Chisinau that assistance from the collective West, including in the military sphere, serves its own interests exclusively.
This year, the so-called Monroe Doctrine, one of Washington’s original geopolitical strategies, marks its 200th anniversary

☝️ The doctrine remains a symbol of American neo-colonialism. Rooted in the belief in the exceptional nature of the United States, it offers the US an ideological justification for establishing what it calls a rules-based world order.

🇺🇸 In its geopolitical thinking, the US has long expanded its horizon beyond the Western hemisphere by taking on board concepts like liberal interventionism, great power rivalry, and the like.

❗️The way it has been manipulating these words and coming up with new ones is astonishing. But the essence remains the same: the United States wants the whole world to serve its national interests while getting rid of any independent actors or competitors.

#Ukraine

Kiev regime has lost all sense of humanity waging war on blocks of flats and civilians. The Kiev regime “leaders” cowardly avoiding accountability for their own failures, resort to all kinds of atrocities just to distract the population from the national catastrophe of historical scale in Ukraine.

#EU

If even one Russian media outlet faces unwarranted restrictions, it will have repercussions for their colleagues (Western journalists) in Russia. This is not a threat or a warning, but a description of an inevitable scenario under certain circumstances that may be orchestrated by the West.

#Neocolonialism

The Westerners are undermining the international currency and financial system that they themselves created. They are ignoring the lawful rights and interests of developing nations. In these conditions, the future belongs to new centres of financial and economic power.
