Putin-Xi Meeting at summit marks the rise of Eurasia
In contrast, Washington’s coalitions in the ‘Indo-Pacific’ and elsewhere are failing to gain new adherents.
The military strategy in Ukraine appears to have no diplomatic counterpart. When it comes to grand strategy, Washington may be its own worst enemy.

⚡️BREAKING NEWS⚡️

We will never recognize sanctions against Russia, Iran has had sanctions imposed against it for years but we have managed to prevent the consequences - Iranian President Raisi in meeting with Putin today.

🇷🇺🇨🇳🇮🇳Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi confirmed his participation in the summit of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization(SCO) in Samarkand. Global Times writes ,that the presence of Modi at the SCO summit against the background of non-alignment with the American IPEF bloc indicates that India adheres to an independent policy, and analysts hope that the country will cooperate more actively with other SCO members, including China and Russia, in the joint promotion of a multipolar world. Against the background of all this, there is another news: Indian Deputy Foreign Minister Vinay Quatro notes that India is not a G7 country that is considering the possibility of introducing a ceiling on prices for Russian oil.

🇨🇳 🇷🇺 🇮🇷 cooperation between China, Russia and Iran is reaching a new level. Back in the 90s of the last century, the famous American political scientist Brzezinski wrote that such an alliance between these three countries is extremely unprofitable for the United States

Iran signed today Memorandum of accession to the SCO. Apparently, cooperation between China, Russia and Iran is reaching a new level. Back in the 90s of the last century, the famous American political scientist Brzezinski wrote that such an alliance between these three countries is extremely unprofitable for the United States. So the geopolitical tension in the world will continue to increase.

Based on this, it can be assumed that there are practically no chances of any warming of relations between the West and Iran. Thus, the probability of concluding a new deal on Iran's nuclear program is very low. This means that there will be no lifting of the embargo on the export of Iranian oil, and additional barrels of "black gold" will not appear on the world market.

Two months earlier, the Americans attempted to lower oil prices with the help of the Saudis. But it failed miserably . At the moment, it looks like only a deep recession in the United States can lower oil prices. And then not as much as it was in previous crises.

◾Kyiv blocks accounts of those evacuated to Russia — they lose all their life savings

◾Ukraine has blocked the bank accounts and cards of its citizens who fled from the Kyiv regime to Russia, Russian human rights commissioner Tatyana Moskalkova has said. Many of them have lost their lifelong savings.

◾"Their Ukrainian cards are blocked, and they cannot withdraw their own money — salaries, pensions, savings — from the banks," Moskalkova said.

◾Now, she said, the issue of hryvnias is also acute — many refugees do not have enough money they brought with them, and it is hard to change Ukrainian currency in Russian banks now.

According to the authorities of the Kherson region, a Ukrainian landing force of 120 people was destroyed on the Kinburn Spit.

President Vladimir Putin’s expanding war effort appears to be lifting Russian industrial production, helping his economy outperform many of the worst forecasts amid sanctions.

The secrecy surrounding the manufacture of military hardware hasn’t fully obscured the impact it’s starting to have on output. Production of “finished metal goods” -- a statistical line that besides items like cutlery includes weapons, bombs and various types of ammunition -- surged almost 30% in July from a year earlier after steep declines in the previous months.

A separate category called “other vehicles and equipment,” which alongside bicycles and similar products counts ships, planes and armor, is also among the biggest outperformers.

“Manufacturing would have performed much worse if not for the war,” said Tatiana Orlova at Oxford Economics.
