Urgent Action Required Against Environmental Pirates


August 26, 2019, Strategic Culture Foundation (Russia) https://www.strategic-culture.org/news/2019/08/26/urgent-action-required-against-environmental-pirates/

There is a new type of pirate on the international scene. These are not the swashbuckling brigands of yore but national leaders who are intent on plundering and pillaging the world’s most-environmentally sensitive resources. From the Amazon rainforest, described as the “lungs of the Earth” because it provides 20 percent of our planet’s oxygen, to Greenland and the Antarctic, unscrupulous and ignorant leaders are placing the entire planet in jeopardy. These leaders include Donald Trump and Brazil’s Jair Bolsonaro, who fancies himself as the “Tropical Trump.” In rejecting scientific methods of measuring and tracking the adverse effects of climate change, political leaders like Trump, Bolsonaro, Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte, and others are practicing a form of epistemological nihilism, which posits that environmental and climatic science proving the effects of cascading man-made climate change are untrue.

It is a close race to determine whether Trump or Bolsonaro are having the greatest negative impact on Earth’s climate. Although both reject sound scientific methodology, Bolsonaro slightly edges out Trump due to the fact that the “intellectual” guru for Bolsonaro, a far-right Brazilian “end-times” evangelical “Christian,” is a Virginia-based conspiracy monger named Olavo de Carvalho. Among his other fanciful notions, Carvalho entertains the idea that the Earth is not a sphere but flat.

As wildfires of biblical proportions plague Alaska, Siberia, and the Amazon Basin, unprecedented heat waves hit Europe, and the Greenland Ice Sheet and Western Antarctica melt as Trump figures out how to annex Greenland from

UK: Boris Johnson – A Dangerous Yes Man to Washington


July 26, 2019, EDITORIAL Strategic Culture Foundation http://www.strategic-culture.org (Russia) https://www.strategic-culture.org/news/2019/07/26/boris-johnson-dangerous-yes-man-to-washington/

The clownish figure of Boris Johnson comes with a trunk load of anti-Russia baggage as he arrived in Downing Street this week as new British prime minister.
The dour, hapless Theresa May has been replaced by a guy who seems to think that geopolitics is a circus conducted with custard pies to the face.

His past deplorable comments about the Skripal affair blaming Russian President Vladimir Putin for ordering an assassination plot in England last year, plus his outrageous denigration of Russia’s World Cup as comparable to Nazi Germany holding the Olympic Games in 1936, demonstrate that this politician is unfit for office. He can only make relations with Russia even worse.

Moreover, Johnson’s cringing sycophancy to US President Donald Trump adds a whole new disturbing risk of war with Iran.

Everything about this 55-year-old polemist, who made his journalistic career on the back of concocting sensationalist rubbish, speaks of someone who is unscrupulous and a self-serving egomaniac. Added to those “qualities” are his dense stupidity and

1- Urgent statement of DPR Defense Ministry

The situation in the Donetsk direction tends to aggravate. For several days the Ukrainian side has been preparing to conduct a large-scale provocation aimed at justifying Kiev’s failure to fulfill its obligations under the Minsk Agreements and their disruption of the elections to local authorities. Kiev ignores requests of A.Merkel and F.Hollande, but listens to the assurances of support from Washington representatives.

According to our intelligence, the day before over 30 artillery systems, tanks and mortars were delivered to the fighting positions of the 58th separate mechanized infantry and

Macedonia: Playing Solitaire with Marked Cards/Македонский пасьянс с краплёными картами

22.05.2015, Strategic Culture Foundation http://www.strategic-culture.org (Russia), Фонд стратегической культуры http://www.fondsk.ru (Россия)
  

As the events in Macedonia unfold, the situation starts to look more like an orange revolution orchestrated from outside. Those who stay behind it use the experience of former Yugoslavia, the post-Soviet space, North Africa and the Middle East. At the start protests are incited to put forward economic demands. Non-government organizations join in, the public opinion is influenced by world media, especially in the European Union member states. The organizers use pro-EU and Euro-Atlantic sentiments of protesters for their own ends (they are told that the being pro-EU and pro-NATO means fighting for democracy). Round tables and talks are organized with the presence of the United States and the European Union. The European Council has already expressed «its grave concern regarding the deteriorating situation in the country, in particular in the area of rule of law, fundamental rights and freedom of media, which are core democratic values at the heart of the EU and its enlargement policy. In the interest of the citizens, democracy, rule of law and political stability, the Council urges political leaders to rapidly address those concerns».

The Albanian factor greatly influences the events. It may lead to involvement of other forces and even neighboring states. Albanian radicals started the «orange revolution style» protests in Kumanovo and other places. Once started it will not end up with the resignation of the government headed by Nikola Gruevski. The interests of Albanian radicals and

Ukraine deceives Europe/Украина обманывает Европу

16.05.2015, Strategic Culture Foundation http://www.strategic-culture.org (Russia), Фонд стратегической культуры http://www.fondsk.ru (Россия)


A year and a half has passed since the well-known dramatic events took place in Ukraine. Having come to power the regime started to practice a kind of Newspeak, or fictional language. Misleading terms are routinely used to deceive people.

* * *

There had been a lot of kerfuffle before the EU association agreement was signed. As a matter of fact this document turned Ukraine into a colonial state. The new regime was servile enough to cede to pressure and convert the country into a colony of the European Union. It said the step was undertaken to meet «the aspiration of Ukrainian people to join Europe». Then the new government started to talk about «the struggle against bloody tyrant Yanukovych». Let me note that the former President of Ukraine did not give an order to use force against neo-Nazi militants when they opened fire at security forces, launched arson attacks and staged pogroms…

«Unknown snipers» under the command of then Maidan Commandant Andriy Parubiy, the former Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine, perpetrated an act of mass murder killing protesters and policemen in the

Kiev starts to get frustrated with Europe/Киев снова разочаровывается в Европе

30 abril 2015, Strategic Culture Foundation http://www.strategic-culture.org (Russia), Фонд стратегической культуры http://www.fondsk.ru (Россия)


The April 27 Ukraine-EU summit in Kiev frustrated the hosts. The joint declaration was turgid enough praising bold plans for reforms and condemning Russia’s «aggressive actions» on Ukrainian soil. It is clear that Brussels has no real intention to shoulder any serious responsibility. So Ukraine got nothing but promises, no matter the whole political philosophy and strategy of Kiev regime is centered on «European prospects». 

The European leaders had tried to bring down the Kiev expectations even before the meeting started. Jean-Claude Juncker, President of the European Commission, and Federica Mogherini, High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy and Vice-President of the European Commission, had cancelled visits to Ukraine promising to take part in the EU-Ukraine summit instead. It became known before the meeting that Mogherini would not
