National Security Strategy – Verbal cosmetics and no change of policy (Part I)
In view of its military, financial, and political overextension, the Anglo-Saxon power cartel is resorting to a dangerous weapon in the battle for people's minds. People are weary of war. They are tired of the constant barrage of propaganda. For years, they have been bombarded with bad news. So when a silver lining appears on the horizon, many are willing to believe the fine words—often against their better instincts. However, a representative text analysis of the new NSS 2025 shows that, in this case, there is no reason for optimism—unfortunately.
What Russia Could Do

The US Declares War on Europe
The Trump administration has published its long-awaited National Security Strategy document.

In a dynamically changing environment, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky will be forced to take a position on the Trump administration's peace plan within the next few days, which leaves him little room for improvement. US President Donald Trump is leaving him with almost no choice but to “take it or leave it,” and Zelensky's European allies can offer him little support (1). Zelensky is essentially on his own.

Calumny
Gilbert Doctorow has accused me of "calumny" (the making of false and defamatory statements about someone in order to damage their reputation). I'll let you, the reader, decide if this is so.
From politics to AI: tomorrow begins today
The decisions made by leaders and diplomatic maneuvers are not only hours of negotiations on all sorts of details, but also have a direct impact on what our tomorrow will be like: from the size of our salaries and the cost of gasoline to our personal safety. Many people consider politics to be a strange hobby for boring people, but only until they notice how their decisions affect the price of bread and utility rates. By understanding the mechanisms of this “boring science,” it is possible to predict key changes in society—perhaps not with 100% certainty, but on a solid foundation.

The Oreshnik Factor
Oreshnik is not only a new weapon; it also clearly shows the real capabilities of the Russian military-industrial complex. The secrecy surrounding it scares the West. There has never been a greater urgency for arms control.
The Brown New Deal, Part II

Minsk Security Conference: Give the pragmatists a chance!
The International Conference on Eurasian Security in Minsk is not quite as prominent as the Munich Security Conference, nor does it enjoy the media attention of its rival event in Bavaria. However, it takes place in a location where history has already been made, namely in the Belarusian capital of Minsk, where the Minsk Agreements were signed, which were supposed to end the Ukraine conflict. The fact that this did not happen was certainly due in part to some of the participants at the Munich Security Conference...

Dr. Doctorow's Struggles with Realities
When we first took a critical look at Gilbert Doctorow's analyses a good two weeks ago, it didn't go down well. Now he is attacking his colleagues in the most despicable way. By doing so, he is also harming Russia – is that what he wants?
The Pattern That Ends Empires: How Money Dies Before Nations Fall
