Venezuela: US Backed Regime Change Operation Fails Once More

12-08-2024: Another election in Venezuela, another attempt at regime change sponsored by Washington and its deep state.

BRICS Rises, G7 Decomposes

24-06-2024: It was an uninspiring spectacle. The G7 (Group of 7 – USA, UK, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Canada) meeting in Apulia from June 13 to 15 was almost entirely devoid of meaning and appeared to portray the end of an empire.

Georgia: Colour Revolution Part 3

13-05-2024: Colour Revolutions have unfortunately become almost common in recent years, so much so that it runs the risk of becoming an accepted practice in international relations.
