The 🇺🇸 American media reports that alleged leaked documents from the Pentagon reveal that countries such as the UAE or 🇪🇬 Egypt have already sided with 🇷🇺 Russia.

The 🇦🇪 UAE is reportedly ready to work together with the Russians against the CIA, while Egypt is even ready to support the Russian war effort by sending weapons, even though the US has "invested a lot" in developing a military and diplomatic partnership with this African country.

⚡ 🇧🇷 Brazil's President Lula is arriving in 🇨🇳 China today for a 4-day visit, which will herald a tectonic shift in Latin America's geopolitics.

The No 1 paradigm is, of course, the use of Yuan in Brazil-China bilateral trade.

If Brazil joins the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), heads will explode in Washington DC. Last year, 🇦🇷 Argentina joined the BRI.

Significant boost in investments, infrastructure and trade. Brazil needs to grow its economy with good jobs.

There are lots of win-win opportunities here. For example, China can open up numerous manufacturing plants in Brazil to export to Latin America and even the 🇺🇸 US.

🇨🇳 Xi Jinping and Lula will definitely discuss 🇺🇦 Ukraine peace plan, BRICS expansion, BRICS currency and the architecture for the era of post-American Century.

2023 might be the year the Monroe Doctrine died.

Chad just expelled the German ambassador for disrespect. Things are moving fast. Only thing i am worried about is China. Are they going all in or one leg in and out? Russia doesn't care, they are all in but China stance worries me a bit.


Macron isn't to be trusted! He is a banker.

One eye on things in the Middle East.

China is already all legs in, but to understand the Chinese, you need to be very conversant with Confucianism. Chinese plays the long game, and they are as silent as a graveyard, but hit the hardest.

If not for China, Russia will have already been defeated, and broken into piece. China singlehandedly saved Russia. That's how powerful China is. China also have lots of backdoor deals with Russia that you won't hear about.

Hence Putin travelled to Beijing to get the assurance of the Chinese before entering Ukraine. The '"ally with no limit" document. Read it. Published by both china and Russia.

China have brought the middle East on its side by bringing peace between Saudis and Iran. So all the war industries of fanning conflicts to sell weapons vanished overnight. That's all legs in.

China doesn't rush. It's playing the long game. Mind you, they have the highest external reserves in USD, in trillions, and the US will steal it like it did with the Russian reserves if they jump too quick.

From my calculations, 2025 (the year china will achieve independence in everything western in tech), will be when they will flex their full muscle. But China is already in. Full time.

⚡One in five 🇺🇸 Americans have a family member killed by guns - Survey

Warmongering Nation!! Am not surprised.

Gun is the cheapest thing you can get in America. Even if you a poor as a churchrat, you can still buy a gun, even if it is second hand.

They are 400 million guns in America. The number of guns and firearms is more than the American population which is 330 million people.

A lot of Americans has guns more than those that has phones and cars.

Military industries complex and Gun producing companies will be cashing out in $billions at the expense of the blood of Americans. Even American government is also guilty for legalising such stuff.

The manner people are killed and injured in America, you will think they are fighting a civil war.

2nd Amendment is curse to America.

The Chinese should not fail or else, everybody go turn to slaves. I went through the GeoPolitics subreddit, and reading the posts by Westerners about India's non-alignment and reluctance to condemn Russia reeks of arrogance. They really want India to omit Russia and align with them. They expect India to forget what the US did to her when she supported Bangladesh to gain independence. If India fvck up, na she sabi.
