🚨Victor Gao: China🇨🇳 is NOT supplying weapons to Iran, Iran is on its way to SUCCESSFULLY DEFENDING itself against the US🇺🇸 and Israel

‘China calls for an immediate end to this war, and China applauds and very much is opposed to a war of aggression.

China’s support to Iran has been unequivocal, very explicit. And this is the reason why Iran has been expressing thanks to the very strong and consistent Chinese support.

China, I think, believes Iran still has enough wherewithal to defend its sovereignty and territorial integrity.

And I don’t think there has been any specific request from Iran for Chinese military help. And this is the reality. So I’m firmly opposed to any allegation that China is supplying weapons to Iran.

Iran is fully capable of defending itself because it keeps demonstrating and surprising many countries by the kind of weapons, either drones or missiles, or even missiles with a range of up to 4000 kilometres and all kinds of warheads that they can carry.

And I think Iran is on its way to successfully defending its sovereignty and territorial integrity, regardless of the massive amount of losses, including loss of life, that the United States and Israel have inflicted on Iran.

Iran has not requested for any military aid from China, and China does not supply weapons to a country at war.’

-Victor Gao, President of the Center for China and Globalisation, on the latest episode of Going Underground

'Facts have PROVED that the US🇺🇸 is the biggest source of chaos in the international order.'

—Deputy Chief of China's🇨🇳 PLA
Joint Staff Department Jing Jianfeng:

'The US uses the rules and orders as hegemonic narratives. When these rules and orders serve its interests, the US employs them, when they do not, the US discards them.

From Afghanistan to Iraq, from Ukraine to Gaza, all these crises and conflicts are results of the self-serving double standards of the US.’

Victor Gao: ‘When China🇨🇳 got involved between Iran and Saudi Arabia🇸🇦, you got PEACE. When the US🇺🇸 and Israel got involved…you get hostility, WAR, confrontation, DESTRUCTION. So the choice is very obvious for Middle Eastern countries.

I hope when the dust settles after this war of aggression against Iran, the Iranians and the Arabs will shake hand again, preferably with Chinese intervention and mediation and they may cement their friendship and cooperation for decades and centuries to come.

Because it will be suicidal for the Sunni Arabs and Shiite Iranians to be at each other’s jugular.

It will be much better if they can recognise each other, respect each other, shake each other’s hand and engage in cooperation with each other rather than as some other countries are leading them in the wrong direction, being hostile with each other, trying to destroy each other, get to each other’s jugular.

That will not be a better Muslim world at large.’

Victor Gao🇨🇳: 2026 IS THE BEGINNING OF THE END OF PAX AMERICANA🇺🇸

‘Whatever President Trump and the US Government are doing right now, launching war after war against Venezuela, against Iran, against Cuba, or trying to take over Greenland or take over Canada etc. all these things are not making America great again.

As a matter of fact, they just serve the opposite purpose. They will actually make the United States much weaker.

I would say if history looks back at the year 2026, they may mark the year 2026 as the beginning of the end of Pax Americana. Why? Because America is disregarding international law, trampling on the United Nations Charter.’

And China🇨🇳 has become the fierce defender of world peace, the major champion of defending international free trade.

So I hope mankind will have conscience and judgement to say which country is doing the right thing.

And in this particular case (Iran), it’s the United States which is doing the wrong thing. And China is doing the right thing.’

🇨🇳🇺🇸China’s US Treasury Bond Holdings:

2013-2014: Approximately $1.3 Trillion

2026: Approximately $693 billion

A decline of 46.7% in just over a decade.

Meanwhile, China’s gold reserves:

2013-2014: Approximately 1,050–1,100 tonnes

2026: 2,300+ tonnes

An increase of over 100%

As the US has increasingly become an out-of-control declining hegemon and an unstable rogue state, China is quietly divesting and de-risking with the aggressive stockpiling of gold.

WHY DOESN’T CHINA🇨🇳 DUMP US🇺🇸 TREASURY BILLS?

Victor Gao: ‘China wants to make sure that the Chinese foreign currency reserve can be well-invested. And investing in the US treasury is one of the ways to deploy Chinese foreign currency reserves.

China used to be the largest treasury bond holder. China consistently and continuously reduced its US treasury bond holding. And this is also a fact well-recorded. And in the future, I think China will continue to decrease its US treasury bonds.

China also cares about the financial integrity of the global financial market as a whole. And for example, if the United States financial market tanks, it’s absolutely bad for the United States, that’s without a doubt.

But, it’s also bad for the international economy, international financial integrity.
So from the Chinese perspective being very philosophical for thousands of years, the Chinese mind is always being very philosophical.

We want to do the right thing, even if doing the right thing means the opposite side will benefit. And we do not want to do the wrong thing, even if doing the wrong thing will make the hostile side suffer, if mankind will suffer more.

So I think, you are talking about an equilibrium. And the Chinese equilibrium is always don’t do unto others what you do not want others do unto you.”

'There is a WORLD WAR...there is already a war on China🇨🇳. There has been a war of attrition against Russia🇷🇺...breaking up the Russian Federation is a US objective!'

—John Pilger (1939-2023) speaking to Going Underground in 2020.

As China continues to leave the US behind in the dust by just about every metric, expect the coming war on China to intensify further, as the US’ desperate and violent intolerance towards the idea of no longer being the dominant superpower grows by the day.

The old world is dying, and the new world struggles to be born; now is the time of monsters.’

On this day in 1937, Italian communist leader and theorist Antonio Gramsci died. He was born in Sardinia to a poor family and witnessed class oppression firsthand. Gramsci became a key figure in the Italian Communist Party and opponent of Mussolini's fascist regime.

He was imprisoned in 1926 and endured severe torture at the hands of Mussolini’s fascists. While in prison, he wrote the Prison Notebooks, where he developed groundbreaking ideas on cultural hegemony; the idea that ruling classes maintain dominance by shaping cultural norms, values, and ideologies to secure consent, not just through force. Gramsci argued that true revolution required challenging this cultural control, making him a pioneer of modern revolutionary theory.

He died in 1937 from illnesses brought about by the draconian conditions he faced in fascist Italy’s prisons.

🚨LEAKED: UK🇬🇧 Ambassador to the US🇺🇸 admits the truth:

‘I think there is probably ONE country that has a special relationship with the United States, and that is probably ISRAEL.’

Given the ridiculous state of British politics, Amb. Christian Turner will probably be widely called an anti-Semite for stating the obvious.

He also called the term ‘special relationship’ for describing US-UK relations backwards-looking.

So pathetic is the UK’s foreign policy establishment that they admit they are a vassal state, with the ‘special relationship’ being nothing but a PR term to gloss over their vassal status…

But will likely do nothing different to change their foreign policy and pursue strategic diversification.

🚨Rooppur to Power 10% of Bangladesh🇧🇩: Nation Enters NUCLEAR Era

Bangladesh is set to meet over 10% of its current electricity demand from the Rooppur Nuclear Power Plant, according to Alexey Likhachev of Rosatom. Marking a major milestone, nuclear fuel has now been successfully loaded into the first reactor, signalling Bangladesh’s formal entry into the nuclear power league.

With a planned capacity of 2,400 MW and an estimated cost of $13 billion (90% financed by Russia), the project is central to Bangladesh’s energy transition. The first unit is expected by July 2026, with the second following in 2027. As commissioning progresses, moving from fuel loading to controlled power generation, the plant is set to boost energy security, reduce fossil fuel dependence, and deepen Dhaka–Moscow strategic ties.
