πŸ‡°πŸ‡΅ πŸ‡°πŸ‡· - North Korea launched several ballistic missiles [approx. 10] today early morning towards the direction of the sea east of South Korea, in the Sea of Japan.

At least one of them fell near waters off South Korea eastern coast. This launch triggered an Air raid warning in Ulleung-Gun, an island off the coast of South Korea in the Sea of Japan.

Around three hours later, the South fired three precision air-to-ground missiles from warplanes into waters off North Korea's east coast.

As a result of this situation South Korea raised level of its military readiness while Japan is having an immediate national military council.

🎀 Walk & explain

Is Iran preparing to retaliate? Part 1

Yesterday, a red flag was hoisted over the dome of the Iranian Jamkaran mosque in the city of Qom.

This could be interpreted as a signal that a war retaliation against West is imminent.

The red flag symbolizes the unjustly shed blood & call to avenge the innocent.

A few days ago a terrorist attack took place in the mosque in Shiraz.

Last weeks the Iranian government has beem accusing the US, Israel & Saudi Arabia of destabilizing the situation in Iran by supporting the insurgencies through media and promoting violence.

The red flag over the sacred Jamkaran Mosque is a symbol of war & blood that must be spilled. Until then, the flag cannot be lowered.

The mosque in Qom was not chosen by chance. It is one of the holiest Shia mosques in Iran, where pilgrims flock from different regions

Last time red flag was raised before rocket attacks on US base of Ain al-Assad in Iraq. After the assassination of Iranian General Qassem Soleimani in Baghdad.

Is Iran preparing to retaliate?
Part 2

The Iranians are very sensitive to these kind of symbols, so the government of the republic will undoubtedly take some action against enemy targets.

Another question is how far the Iranians will go in escalating tensions in the region. 

In our opinion, It is highly doubtful that there will be massive strikes that could lead to a direct collision.

Symbolism of retaliation first of all is mostly aimed at the internal public. 

A full-scale war is not in Iran's interests, given the general instability in the country.

Probably, Iran will limit itself to some indicative strikes on some targets in Iraq and Saudi Arabia with the help of the Houthis in Yemen.

Maybe in refineries and US military base in the region would be our estimated guess?

We do not expect a full scale war escalation here.πŸ™

The minister of Energy of Qatar Al-Kaabi announced that putting a price cap on gas is hypocritical and in that case gas originating from Qatar might finally be channeled elsewhere.

Traders from competing countries could in such a case buy the amounts of gas initially planned to be delivered to Europe, since they are able to offer higher prices.

Germany & other European countries want to substitute the Russian gas with deliveries from Qatar. However the minister of the Emirate strictly notes that gas from his country may end up elsewhere.

β€œFree market is always the best choice. Everything is defined by the price which a country or a company is willing to pay. β€œ Al Kaabi stated during his interview in German newspaper Spiegel.

Chinese President Xi Jinping meets with Pakistani Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif in Beijing, Nov. 2, 2022.

Sharif is on a two-day visit to Beijing. China is hosting a number of foreign leaders this week, as China vowed to increase the nation’s global influence.

Xi Jinping & Shehbaz Sharif agreed to launch a high-speed rail project that could cost $9.85 billion!

Earlier Xi met with Vietnam’s Communist Party chief Nguyen Phu Trong.

What comes next for China leader?

On 4th November Xi will meet with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and afterwards with Tanzanian President Samia Suluhu Hassan.

Later this month, he will likely travel to Indonesia and Thailand for major summits attended by global leaders including Joe Biden and perhaps Vladimir Putin.

Erdogan achieved significant diplomatic success today. Noone understands how.

Today's reports:
1. He convinced Ukraine to give written assurances to RF, stating Ukraine will not use again the "grain deal" sea corridor for military attacks.
2. He convinced RF to return to "grain deal".

When asked by reporters how he managed to convince Putin, Erdogan responded: " i will tell it to Biden first"...

Turkey 's geopolitical role is seriously upgraded despite their ambiguous position on Ukraine conflict".

A country on the verge of bankruptcy; with 72% inflation in 2022 has managed to secure both funds and future deals.

A few days ago Russia and Turkey agreed to make Turkey " a gas hub for Europe". Practically it means Turkey will be accumulating Azerian, Russian gas & then reselling it to EU and others in the prices they want.

It is unbelievable EU is down the path of changing reliable cheap Russian gas to either US LNG (5x more expensive) or even worse for gas supplies from an intermediate like Turkey. πŸ™ˆ

πŸ”₯ Update

Brazilian elections - situation in the country:

While in social media circulate videos of unrest , fights , demonstrations and even shocking scenes of a car rolling over the crowd, it is very important to maintain a calm and objective outlook on the sequence of events.

Our analysis shows that we are closer to a de-escalation of the crisis in Brazil.

Lets take a look at the timeline:

Monday start massive roadblocks by angry Bolsonaro supporters.

Tuesday Bolsonaro makes short statement in mainstream media during which he does not really concede defeat.

This message does not really calm down protesters.

Meanwhile Lula supporters & police start cleaning some of the roadblocks.

Wednesday as you can see in last video Bolsonaro posts on his facebook a video-message calling to respect the law & order, to stop roadblocks and demonstrate more peacefully!

Big rallies still take place on squares in Rio and Sao Paulo.

However the possibility of military overturn or extreme violence seems now lower.

Indian Minister of Petroleum & Natural Gas Hardeep Singh Puri puts CNN journalist Becky Anderson back in her place.

The aggressive journalist tried to accuse India for purchasing Russian Oil & Gas despite the conflict in Ukraine.

However Hardeep with decisive and specific arguments did not allow anyone to believe India will play USA games against the best interests of India own citizens.

He mentioned:
1. Oil companies buy on free markets on basis of best price.

2. India s biggest oil supplier in September has been Iraq, not Russia.

3. India's main duty is to make sure 1.4bln Indians have energy.

4. India is the 5th biggest economy & is not falling under pressure from anyone.

5. "No we do not feel any moral conflict... Our moral duty is to our people."
