🇷🇺 Nikolai Peskov (son of Dmitry Peskov) at the front as part of the Wagner PMC

Here's what Nikolai says about all this hype:

“I never paid attention to what they say behind their backs. I took an oath to serve my Motherland many years ago. Long before the events in Donbass and the special operation, I had the honor of representing my branch of the armed forces at the May 9 Victory Parade. And today I managed to fulfill my duty and defend my country on the battlefield in the ranks of the Wagner PMC. Do not hesitate, the truth and victory are ours!”

240 years ago, Empress Catherine the Great made Crimea part of the Russian Empire.

When the Warsaw Pact was dissolved and the USSR collapsed, a unipolar model took shape. At the geopolitical level, it corresponded to the sole domination of the West, its achievement of undeniable superiority and total leadership overall potential opponents (primarily over the remains of the Eastern Bloc represented by Russia in the 90s of the 20th century). This is reflected in the most important strategic documents of the United States of the 1990s – the military doctrine of “full-spectrum dominance” and the prevention of the emergence in Eurasia of a geopolitical entity capable of somehow limiting the completeness of US planetary control. This was called the “unipolar moment” (C. Krauthammer).

Ideological domination corresponded to geopolitical unipolarity.

Back in the 1930s, the Italian communist Antonio Gramsci proposed using the term “hegemony” primarily as a worldwide expansion of capitalist ideology. After the fall of the USSR, it became obvious that the military, economic and technological hegemony of the West was accompanied by another form of hegemony – ideological – that is, the total spread of liberalism. This is how one ideology began to prevail almost all over the world – the liberal one. It was built on the basic principles that hegemony considered and imposed as universal norms:

— individualism, social atomization,
market economy,
— unification of the world financial system,
— parliamentary democracy, multi-party system,
— civil society,
— technological development and, above all, “digitalization”,
— globalization,
— the transfer of more and more powers from national states to supranational authorities – such as the International Monetary Fund, the World Bank, the World Health Organization, the European Union, the European Court of Human Rights, the Hague Tribunal.

Ideological Sovereignty In a Multipolar World

Ex-President Warns G7 Against Banning Exports To Russia

Russia may quit the Ukraine grain deal if the Group of Seven (G7) nations place a total ban on exporting goods to the country, former president and current deputy chairman of the Russian Security Council, Dmitry Medvedev, wrote in his Telegram channel on Sunday.

According to the senior official, Moscow may retaliate by restricting its exports to Western states.

“The G7 idea of a total ban on exports to our country is excellent in that it also implies a reciprocal termination of exports from our country in the most sensitive categories for the G7. In this case, the grain deal and many other things they need will end for them,” Medvedev wrote.

The main goal of the meeting is to offer member states an opportunity to reaffirm their unconditional commitment to the core provisions of the UN Charter, primarily those with regard to strong adherence to the sovereign equality of states and refraining from interference in their domestic affairs.

🇵🇸 On April 25, Sergey Lavrov will chair another UNSC high-level event, an open debate under the agenda item “The situation in the Middle East, including the Palestinian question.”

The Palestine problem which is central to the Middle East settlement process, is further from a solution than ever. It adds more urgency to the overall task of restoring the peace horizon and reaffirming the commonly acknowledged international-law basis for the settlement, including the two-state formula.
