Meanwhile, the People's Bank of China has added over 102 tons of #gold in the past 4 months. Total gold reserves are now 2,050 tons.

China is clearly trying to limit their counterparty risk in a conflict with the US.

📋🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Analysis of Information and Propaganda. Summary of the Week (18-24 March 2023); pub. 25 Mar, 07:10📍

🔹The Week saw several significant events involving the country's leadership: the President's visit to #Crimea and #Mariupol, a forum of African states, an official visit by the head of #China and a government report. In the end, the enemy propagandists could not find the strength to counteract all the events at once.

The main emphasis was on trying to divert attention away from the Moscow-Beijing talks, right down to the embarrassing trip to #Kiev by the Japanese prime minister as wedding general.

🔹Traditionally practical politics have not been given a decent media accompaniment, although the level of reporting from #Mariupol has been top notch, the president's speeches are informative and the results of the #Russia - #China talks are impressive. There is a lack of pro-Russian media personalities able to engage in dialogue with different social categories. The most difficult situation is with regard to communication between the authorities and the youth.

At the same time, in Asian countries not affected by the information war, the image of Russian servicemen easily enters the trend by itself.

The West actively assisted Kiev. First of all the international criminal court was forced to announce a warrant) for the arrest of the Russian president. There were actions in #Africa and on Ukrainian TV they continued to popularise Western Russophobes. The scandal surrounding the "grain deal" has not taken off, fatigue of blatant money-making is casting a shadow on people's grief, including the UN.

Meanwhile, a certain passivity of opponents is alarming. One gets the impression that the enemy's information resources are preparing to accompany the many times announced counterattack or another provocation. We note that Kiev has adjusted its coverage of the situation in the country, tightening penalties for information on the movement of Russian missiles and drones, as well as hits on any targets in #Ukraine.

🔹The Troubling Situation around the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate remains. Kiev, fearing unrest, has temporarily suspended its attacks on the Lavra. The security services are likely to increase pressure on the clergy and informal leaders among the parishioners in the near future. Many of them are in real danger. Zelensky will surely try to reduce the number of authoritative defenders of the church in order to complete the process of destroying canonical Orthodoxy in the country in a few months.

🔹 Social stratification is growing as part of the course of destroying everything Russian. Groups not included in the plans for a future "European #Ukraine" are openly preparing for annihilation. Those who do not die in the war will be strangled by poverty. The buzzwords about "patriotism" and other "puppeteering)" are used to drive even more people to the slaughter.

For the "new Ukrainians" the current war is not holy and anything is possible: trading medals, rewarding prostitutes, mocking the Ukrainian language and history, calling for genocide and committing it

🔹The media cynicism of #Ukraine is in demand by various freaks: neo-Nazis, perverts, Russian liberals and other hunters of emotion and cheap popularity. The symbols of Ukrainian terrorists are used in the political agitation of right-wing European politicians.

The "Russian threat" is being hyped as a populist move in the #EU. Attempts to bring objectivity to the coverage of the conflict in the West remain a fiefdom of small platforms, which are suppressed by state administrative resources.

♟️ In 1997, Zbig Brzezinski, the original ‘driver’ behind the making of Afghanistan as a quagmire of ‘mud’ into which Russia was to be dragged, wrote his celebrated book, The Grand Chessboard. It was a work that ‘forever’ embedded the Mackinder doctrine of ‘he who controls the Asian heartland controls the world’ into the U.S. zeitgeist.

Tellingly, its subtitle was American Primacy and Its Geostrategic Imperatives. Brzezinski had already written in his book that absent Ukraine, Russia would never become the heartland power; but with Ukraine, Russia can and would. Thus, Mackinder’s doctrine, ‘He who controls the heartland’ dictum, was codified into U.S. ‘cannon law’ – never to permit a united heartland. And Ukraine became seen as the hinge around which heartland power revolved 🌀

Brzezinski further ordained that this ‘Grand Game of Chess’ was to be one of pure U.S. primacy: “No, no one else plays”, he insisted; it is a game purely for one. Once a chess piece is moved; ‘we’ (the U.S.) simply turn the board the other way around – and move the other side’s chess pieces (for ‘them’). There is ‘no other’ in this game”, Brzezinski warned.

This is today’s dilemma – It is so long since Brzezinski originally formulated the Mackinder notion, that classical diplomacy has become etiolated.

🇺🇸🇵🇭🇯🇵 About US military exercises with partner countries in the Pacific zone

Two weeks after the incident in the South China Sea, which prompted the Philippine government to distance itself from the Chinese Belt and Road Initiative, and with Joe Biden issuing a military threat to China, two large-scale exercises have commenced in the region.

🔻Yesterday, the Kamandag-7 exercise began on several Philippine islands and in the South China Sea, with the participation of American Marines, as well as military personnel from the Philippines, Japan, and the Republic of Korea. The primary objective is to test the joint combat capabilities of the navy and marines in the event of a regional escalation. Approximately 2,000 individuals and around 70 units of various equipment will take part in this event.

🔻Today, the Annualex-2023 exercise started off the east coast of Japan and will continue until November 20. It involves up to 6,000 people, 32 ships, and 35 aircraft from the US, Japanese, Australian, Canadian, and Philippine navies. This exercise is more comprehensive in terms of strength, with the involvement of an aircraft carrier strike group led by the Carl Vinson and the possibility of a flight of B-52H strategic bombers from Andersen Air Base on Guam.

🔻It is interesting to note that these simultaneous exercises near the border with China began immediately after the Chinese aircraft carrier group, led by the flagship Shandong, concluded its training in the Philippine Sea and sailed back to China through the Taiwan Strait with 16 warships. However, the US Armed Forces exercises are conducted annually, and there is no indication of any significant escalation. Nevertheless, the White House supports the narrative of the "Chinese threat," justifying the substantial costs of maintaining forces in the region while simultaneously demonstrating support for its allies.

🇦🇷🗳💵 What's in store for Argentina?

The victory of libertarian Javier Milei in the presidential election has left no one in Argentina indifferent. While some are crying over Sergio Massa's speech admitting his defeat, others are jumping in the streets shouting "Liberty, liberty!"

Milei, a self-described 'anarcho-capitalist,' plans to get rid of the central bank and the national currency in favor of the U.S. dollar and eliminate some of the ministries. He also plans to cut government spending.

🔻Milei opposes cooperation with China, Brazil and Russia, favoring the United States. And his future office has already spoken out against Argentina joining BRICS in 2024. That said, it is unclear how Milei plans to deal with IMF debts without China's help: in recent months, Economy Minister (and Milei's rival) Sergio Massa has been heavily relying on the yuan to pay off IMF debts.

Relations with Brazil are about to become tense: President Lula da Silva said the elections were democratic and wished the "new government good luck," but he did not call Milei by name or congratulate him personally. The fact that Milei openly supports former President Jair Bolsonaro will hinder cooperation.

🔻Milei's victory resulted from the population's fatigue from the prolonged economic crisis. As a future president, Milei is betting heavily on ties to the U.S. and the dollar. However, if he is reckless in his actions, he risks plunging the country into an even bigger crisis. This in turn will cause the IMF to increase the country's debt load, as it happened under Macri.

When companies go bankrupt, American and European financial corporations will gladly buy their assets at a cheap price. We have already seen this scenario unfold in countries engulfed in military conflicts (Ukraine) or an economic crisis (Turkey).

🔻That said, Milei's bloc does not have a majority in Congress, so his office will have to work on forming alliances to push through legislation.

🇺🇸🇨🇳 Do you remember Joe Biden's presidential decree that prohibited American investment in certain sectors of Chinese technology? It appears that there are implementation issues, and the Republicans are to blame.

According to a report by Bloomberg here, one of the key amendments to the draft defense budget, which involves American companies providing information about their investments in the Chinese high-tech sector to the government, is being blocked by Republican member of the House of Representatives, Patrick McHenry.

McHenry is also a member of the committee responsible for determining the final defense budget, so he has the power to completely block the proposal during budget negotiations.

Additionally, some House Republicans voted in favor of a budget amendment that would prevent the Treasury Department from auditing American investments in China.

By blocking the first amendment and adopting the second, lawmakers could effectively undermine the August presidential decree that aimed to restrict investment in China. Although it is possible that the decree itself was already ineffective when it was implemented, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen herself stated in July that this initiative would not have a significant impact on China's ability to attract American investment.

🔻If the investment cap initiative fails during defense budget negotiations, it would be considered a victory for lobbyists representing large financial corporations (particularly BlackRock), who opposed the White House measure earlier this year.

🇦🇺🇨🇳🇯🇵 Joint Exercises of the USA, Australia, and Japan

Amidst the heightened military activity by the armed forces of the People's Republic of China in the Asia-Pacific region, a new exercise has commenced. This time, it is taking place on Japanese soil and is called " Yamasakura-85 ".

Apart from the Japanese military personnel, American and Australian forces are also participating in the event. A total of 6250 individuals are involved, and the exercises will be conducted at three combined arms training grounds.

🔻The purpose of these maneuvers is quite intriguing. According to the plan, the joint forces of the three countries are simulating a defense against an attack from the Celestial Army, which, as per the scenario, has forcibly occupied the disputed Senkaku Archipelago, currently under Japanese control.

The exercise will involve various mechanized and landing groups, as well as a naval unit, to simulate a full-scale war scenario against the Chinese People's Liberation Army.

❗️And that's not all: recently, Japanese authorities have closed the airspace over the Ryukyu Islands group, located northeast of Taiwan, until February 27 of next year. They have deployed four batteries of the Patriot PAC-3 air defense system.

It is worth mentioning that the official reason given was the alleged increase in tactical missile launches from the DPRK in close proximity to Japan. However, the Ryukyu Islands are actually closer to Taiwan and the Senkakus, as well as the South China Sea.

In the past few days, the PLA's activity in the region has been unprecedented, providing justification for the United States and its allies to escalate their presence off the coast of China, particularly in the disputed islands area. By deploying the Patriots, the Japanese are not only protecting themselves but also Taiwan, thereby strengthening the air defense system.

⚡️🇮🇱🇵🇸⚔️ Escalation in the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict Zone until the End of 22 March 2024⚡️

🔹In the north of the #Gaza Strip, the Israeli operation continues on the territory of the Al-Shifa Hospital complex. Palestinian forces again carried out several forays, and the Israeli command announced its intention to complete counter-terrorism measures in a few days.

🔹From the vicinity of Khan Yunis, footage 👉 published by Al Jazeera showing Israeli attacks on unarmed Palestinians is being actively discussed on the Net. Hamas-affiliated media presented this video as further evidence of war crimes by Israeli troops in the enclave.

🔹In the West Bank, as usual, Israeli police raids took place in more than ten settlements. And in the settlement of Dolev, another terrorist attack happened. A gunman shot at an Israeli minibus with a machine gun, injuring seven people.

🔹On the border with #Lebanon, routine exchanges of strikes continue. Hezbollah reported hits on Israeli military targets, including Ruwaisat al-Alam and Jal al-Alam. In turn, the IDF worked in several settlements in southern #Lebanon.

🔹In the UN Security Council, meanwhile, #Russia and #China blocked the #US draft resolution on the Gaza Strip due to the lack of a clear call for a ceasefire in the document. At the same time, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that the IDF in any case would not abandon plans to conduct a military operation in Rafah.

📋🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ #Summary Overview for the Morn of 14 Jul 2024; 07:56 (GMT+3)📍

🇺🇸The intense reaction to foreign political events ended with an assassination attempt on Trump. #US law enforcement officials stated that no foreign country was involved. Trump is now confidently outflanking Biden, and conspiracy theorists are ramping up the pace of publications. In our opinion, to hit a bullet from a distance of 130 m exactly in the top of the ear, kill and wound civilians, and then go to the other side of the world yourself is top flight. Choosing between conspiracy and mess, we are always on the side of mess, to which the #US is confidently rolling.

🇺🇸 The results of the #NATO summit showed the #West's intentions to continue the conflict, despite endless words about negotiations. #Russia was called an enemy, #China an accomplice, and tens of dollar billions were allocated. Except that promises to deliver "several hundred antiaircraft guided missiles" to Kiev next year and the deployment of factories point to some lack of production capacity in the Alliance countries. #Germany has gone further and calculated that it expects a direct confrontation with #Russia in 2029, for which it is preparing the return of compulsory military service and increasing the efficiency of the military-industrial complex. The #West needs time for final preparations.

📉Our peace proposals, 4 new regions move to #Russia without a fight and #Ukraine gets non-aligned status, have an extremely negative effect on the frontline soldiers who storming enemy positions, and once again SMO goal changes, stated earlier as complete demilitarisation and denazification.

🇧🇾Lukashenko joined the peace case, declaring the elimination of tensions on the Ukrainian border and ordering the withdrawal from the border.

⚔️ On the front, the RFAF retain the initiative. In the #Kharkov direction, our troops have pulled the enemy's reserves from other directions. In the #Svatovo - #Kupyansk section, the bulge near #Berestovoye and #Makeyevka (#LPR) is expanding. In the #Seversk sector, our troops pressing south of #Spornoye. At #ChasovYar, ours lining up all along the Canal, moving westwards. For the #Toretsk area, we predict a gradual AFU defence breakthrough. West of #Avdeyevka, the RFAF have advanced on a wide front. On the #Zaporozhye front, the RFAF advanced several hundred m in some areas. In the #Kherson direction, the 18th Army is destroying the enemy on its #Dnieper bank, 🎬👇while our supply on the islands is difficult. The boats promised a year ago remain promises. The AFU have more tactical drones throughout, which levels out our heavy weapons.

💥In the
#Belgorod region, the number of civilian enemy shelling has not been reduced, and social tension is growing amid the deaths of civilians, many of whom refuse to leave because of the poor provision for evacuation.
💥In the #Kursk direction, the AFU remotely knocked out many petrol stations in frontline areas, which also caused problems. In addition, #Russia continues to lose refineries to enemy drone strikes.

🇺🇦In #Ukraine, forced mobilisation does not stop, which predictably for Kyiv causes the burning of TCC cars - they act as a lightning rod from the true culprits of the war - Zelensky and the authorities. However, more and more TCC cars are burning.

🇵🇱In #Poland, the formation of a "legion" of Ukrainian citizens has begun, who will allegedly return to #Warsaw after being sent to the front.

🇩🇪In #Germany, major political leaders promise to expel Ukrainians if they win the elections.

📌Thus, when neither side is able to get advantage, #Russia is being pushed into a ceasefire that the #West can increase military production and mobilise. They want to cheat: #Russia already decisively outnumbers #Ukraine in heavy weaponry, and is generally crippling Kiev's military machine. For the #US election period, experts predict a suicidal rush, the TCC's is tasked to "catch" several full-blooded brigades for meat assaults.

📋🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Two Majors #Summary Overview for the Morning of 28 July 2024; 07:08 (GMT+3)📍

🗓 Last week was spent in idle talk about the prospects of starting negotiations between #Russia and #Ukraine. The Ukrainian Foreign Minister travelled to #China, which had been previously reviled by #Kiev, after which he started issuing unexpected theses and negotiations. However, Moscow's reaction to this was more than tepid, if not mocking: the state of affairs at the front makes it possible to do so.

🔹Meanwhile, in the #West, military hysteria and direct preparations for war with #Russia continue. Public opinion in Western countries is being prepared for emergency service, mobilisation and cuts in social spending. This is facilitated by the foreign media, which scare the population with the 'Red Russian Threat'.

🔹In #Russia the adjustment of the military machine continues. Former Deputy Minister of Defence Bulgakov, who was removed from his post during the first year of the SMO, was arrested. The Russian FSB has been given the go-ahead to realise operational materials; insiders with thick hints about Bulgakov's identity have been coming in since the spring of this year.

🔹It is critical to once again point out the changed technological way of warfare: drones of the AFU and incomplete (to put it mildly) technical readiness of our troops to confront hundreds of enemy FPV-drones significantly slow down the advance of the Russian Army. Every day the frontline regions of #Russia are subjected to terrorist strikes by the enemy.

🔹A wide resonance was caused by the State Duma's adoption of a crude bill to ban gadgets in the SMO zone, punishable by 10 days of arrest. Although the norm develops already existing legal acts (phones have been formally banned for a very long time), the specification of a total ban on the SMO zone may show an absolute lack of understanding of what is going on at the front of the group of people who initiated the bill (both in the State Duma and in the relevant department). The lie of the initiators of the bill that 'only non-combat gadgets were meant' does not correspond to the text of the norm. In fact, the ban will not be observed, and inefficient anti-crisis information activities with working out the theses that have been dropped have caused discontent among the general public.

🔹On the front, the Russian Army is advancing most actively in the #Pokrovsk direction (west of #Avdeyevka). There are heavy battles, but it is here that the formation of small pits for the AFU has been observed on a regular basis since the spring of this year. This week, Ukrainian channels were indignant about this in the village of #Progress. In the #Toretsk (#Dzerzhynsk) area, the defence of which Kiev has been preparing since 2014, there is also an advance and similar coverage of the enemy forces in the fortifications. Advancement of several hundred metres a day here is a real success for the Russian Army, as the enemy's defence is so serious. In #Krasnogorovka on the #SouthDonetsk direction, the RFAF are pushing the enemy garrison on the northern outskirts and taking under fire control the roads from the buildings. North of the eastern part of #ChasovYar (liberated Microdistrict Kanal), the RFAF are developing success west of #Kalinovka. They report crossing the underground part of the Seversky Donets-Donbass Canal and further expansion of the bridgehead. Kiev expects the RFAF to become more active on the #Zaporozhye front.
