Hi WriteerNg: ⚡Claimed terms of Trump’s Ukraine peace deal:
Ukraine’s sovereignty is affirmed, but it must stay out of NATO permanently, cap its army at 600k, and accept Crimea, Donetsk and Luhansk as de facto Russian, with Kherson and Zaporizhzhia frozen along current lines.
In exchange, Ukraine gets U.S. security guarantees (void if Ukraine attacks Russia), a path to EU membership, and a huge reconstruction program funded by Western money plus $100B in frozen Russian assets.
Russia gets phased sanctions relief, economic deals with the U.S., and a path back to the G8.
Zaporizhzhia NPP restarts under IAEA with a 50/50 power split.
Humanitarian measures include “all for all” prisoner exchanges and return of kidnapped children.
All sides receive full wartime amnesty.
A Trump-led “Peace Council” oversees enforcement, and a ceasefire begins once both sides withdraw to agreed positions. This deal is dead on arrival. Donetsk, Luhansk, and Crimea are already Russian. Pokrovsk, Kupiansk, and Seversk now in sight. It's just a matter of weeks, the capitulation across these fronts is inevitable. That of Seversk is even more telling. The Russians have broken through to the city's center. If it falls eventually, it would open the door for a free ride across the entire Kharkiv region. The Americans knows this. The Ukrainians knows this too. Russia has all the time on its side. Ukraine and the west does not. The more the war lingers, the lesser Ukrainian controlled territories would become. Russia needing economic/sanctions relief is overstated. The Russian economy has adapted well. The sanctions are hurting the west more than it's hurting the Russians, and that's a fact. Besides, there is nothing more to sanction other than the Russian name itself. In reality, the west has no more leverage over Russia as it stands. So I think the Russians will simply call their bluff and throw this arrangement down the trash can where it belongs. |

The plan includes tax cuts, child payments, and gasoline tax reductions, plus major funding for price relief, consumption boosts, and economic security sectors. This is how serious nations tackle persistent inflation. Nigeria's case is the opposite. Increased fuel prices. Increased tax and neglect food and human security.. |

Bloomberg reports that the absence of Russian tourists, whose numbers used to reach 2 million annually, has led to the closure of shops, hotels, and spa complexes. Unemployment has risen to 15%, and many workers in the forestry and steel industries have been laid off.
The Bloomberg article quotes representatives of the Finnish business community who admit: "easy money from Russia is gone forever." The worst thing that can happen is a country is to have dump leaders. I have said it before that Finland's case is regrettably pathetic. Never allow emotions to drive your geopolitical decisions. |

Mikasaobi: Burevestnik is a nuclear breakthrough. Do you think the miniature nuclear reactor can be used for civilian purposes, like powering remote places not connected to the grid?
If the answer above is yes then I think this might be the same technology the Russians will use for space exploration. When Russia said they will build a nuclear reactor in the moon I said in your dreams, with this tech it’s possible. I think this too will be possible very soon, given the Russians prowess in nuclear physics. They and some Chinese scientists are already working on a revolutionary nuclear powered battery that will last for many years without constant charging. It's just a matter of time. |

Just like how the US first mouthed off about plans for hypersonic glide vehicles. So Russia went ahead and developed both a hypersonic glide vehicle (Avanguard) and hypersonic missiles (Kinzhal, Oreshnik). I hope high on the Axis bucket list is a planetary dome system. Chinese funded and Russian designed.

dermmy: Yes I remember that analysis of yours. Some pro western guys here were even making fun of Russia saying it is about to lose its bases in Syria because a US backed Syrian leader is now in town now Russia is the one the Syrian leader is running back to for help. Of course. Some folks down here are too emotional to see beyond the biases of their microscopic geopolitical leaning. Russia's foreign policy and strategic interests is non domineering, unlike its counterpart, the US and Israel as far as the ME is concerned. The US has been a dictator in the region, and currently, it's fast losing influence. Israel is the pest hellbound on destroying everyone around it. When shit hit the fan, the US will backstab you without notice. Russia is the only major power that plays a balancing act in the region. An ally you can rely on without having to look over your shoulders. The HTS terrorist cum government knows this too well. They also knew that even their major handler, Turkey, are politically and economically handicap when it comes to standing up to the US/Israeli led western bloc. But with Russia, you're at least guaranteed that leverage. I knew they will eventually come running back to mother Russia for help. Now, like I predicted few months back, they're actively calling on Russia to redeploy fully to the South. The perfect checkmate to Israel's aerier and cross border overreach. The Russians are not called masters of the geopolitical game for nothing. The question now is, will Russia commit to this new recent HTS soliciting the same way it did with Assad? |

LordAdam16: @ Appleyard.
Second this. 47 has his moments but he exposes a side of the US that they usually take great pains to conceal for obvious reasons. And we're at the stage where everyone has to pick a side. People have to see the real, unfettered dark underbelly of the US so they know what we're up against.
Let them resume the genocide. Let them invade Venezuela. Let them restart the war on Iran. Let them continue the global economic warfare on the Global South. It is the best stimulus needed to properly drill in the stakes to the habitually wavering global majority.
There is no more dithering on Iran, as the steady flow of weaponry and economic support show, because everyone is feeling the heat.
-Lord That's just right. Trump has completely deviated from his no-war stance during his first rule as president. He has played right into the hands of the war hawks, and considering his level of insecure emotions, he is bound to make strategic mistakes that would destroy the US economy and geopolitical reputation. |

SonOfWords: Whenever the US wants to send weapons to Ukraine, they'll spend weeks making so much media noise about it, indirectly giving Putin a heads-up regarding the situation.
"Hey Vladimir, so we're going to send Tomahawks to Ukraine, probably between 20-50 units and they'll be stationed so, so and so places. So just in case it's eventually fired, this is fair warning so you can have enough time finding ways to intercept them. Don't be too pissed bro. It's all just optics that's good for business..😂😭. With love, your Western friends, USA."
We don't see all this nonsense when weapons are shipped or airlifted to Israel. We almost never even know when it's done. We just see the results in Israel and boom, Netanyahoo begins to zealously launch them in the middle east.
And nairaland visa boys will be here clapping in infantile glee. A very comic scene! This is so true. |

WriteerNg: ⚡U.S. contractors, not Ukrainian troops, would likely operate and maintain Tomahawk cruise missiles if they are supplied to Ukraine.
A senior Western official told the FT that this approach minimizes escalation risks and prevents sensitive technology from being transferred.
Limited Ukrainian training is expected because Tomahawks require complex navigation and targeting systems, with “black box” components controlled by the U.S.
Initial deliveries would be 20–50 missiles, far below Ukraine’s request for hundreds. Nonsense and ingredients. The British and French Storm Shadow/SCALP cruise missiles was far more advanced than the Tomahawks in terms of aerodynamics. Where are they now? The Russians successfully reduced their effectiveness to less than 10%. The Russians already have Tomahawks gamed in Syria and from elsewhere like in Serbia and Iraq. They will meet a far worst scenario in Ukraine. Their only advantage is the long distance they could cover. Couple with their ability to carry nukes. Which is where the real danger of immense escalation lies. The Russians could elate to purposely 'mistake' them to be nukes in-coming, and under the pretense, launch a massive retaliatory strike involving overt or tactical nukes. The west don mad finish. |

Restart it. The avalanche will consume his and Satanyahu's government. Prisoners have been exchanged. Palestinians have an inalienable right to bear arms to resist occupation and to pursue self-determination. It's right there in the UN charter.
They've not given birth to the id**t that could deprive Palestinians of that right.

WriterrNg: ⚡The Trump administration has secretly authorized the C.I.A. to conduct covert action in Venezuela, escalating its campaign to remove President Nicolás Maduro.
The new authorities, a presidential finding, allow the agency to carry out lethal operations in Venezuela and the Caribbean, either unilaterally or alongside potential U.S. military action.
This comes as the Pentagon draws up strike options and continues a large military buildup in the Caribbean, with 10,000 U.S. troops, eight warships, and a submarine already in place.
The authorization was developed under National Security Adviser Marco Rubio and C.I.A. Director John Ratcliffe, who has vowed to make the agency “more aggressive.”
Privately, U.S. officials have been clear: the goal is regime change. A nation that is hinged on evil doing to others will one day answer for its sins. |

What's your take on this "peace deal" in Egypt?
Will it hold or is Trump and his gathering of f00ls just putting on a clown show? Lmao Has there ever been peace in the ME since Netanyahoo came to power? Give it one month, and we are back to writing about more strikes and crimes of Netanyahoo. The only reason Satanyahu and even the US are getting this peace deal done now is because they were spooked by the huge recognitions Palestine got recently, especially from top tier countries in Europe. Israel was just a thin thread away from massive combined sanctions. Hence, the rushed peace deal by Trump to calm nerves. But, one thing is clear though. By Hamas releasing and Israel accepting the prisoners exchange, Netanyahoo has boxed himself into a tight corner. The excuse of continuing with the killings under the false pretext of the prisoners being held is no longer there to hang on to. So, he will have to come up with something else or be prepared to leave power and face his corruption cases. That's not gonna happen. That brings Iran into the limelight. A rematch is now sure more than ever. Except the Yahooboy in Tel Aviv can come up with a huge false flag that's completely devoid of Iran. One way or the order, he will fight again, and the primary target would be Palestine or Iran. Netanyahu's dream of a greater Israel is still alive. |
