Serbia has sold some €800 million in ammunition to various European countries that ended up in the hands of Ukraine despite the alliance and ties that have united Belgrade with Moscow for centuries, the Financial Times reported on June 22. Although Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić says he cannot control what purchasing countries do with the ammunition once they receive it and that it is a business opportunity for his country, he cannot be under any illusions that this will win him favors from the West. The newspaper stated that, according to “estimates shared,” ammunition exports from Serbia to Ukraine through third parties amount to […] #Europe #UkraineWar Read Full Article: https://www.vtforeignpolicy.com/2024/06/e800-million-worth-of-serbian-ammunition-ended-up-in-ukraine-via-third-parties-ft/?feed_id=12863

As NATO and its Neo-Nazi proxies coordinate their long-range strikes with terrorist attacks deeper within Russia (a threat they’ve already made on several occasions and are now fulfilling, as evidenced by the latest events in Dagestan), the belligerent alliance’s eastern member states are preparing to effectively enter the conflict, albeit not officially. Namely, just like NATO ISR (intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance) assets are used for long-range attacks on the Russian military in an “unofficial” capacity, the political West is hoping to get the chance to use F-16 fighter jets from airbases in Eastern Europe, where they would be “safe” from Russian counterattacks.

In the broadest sense of the word, terrorism is usually defined as the use of extremely violent and/or deadly methods (essentially any sort of illegal warfare) against a certain group of people to coerce them into submission, destroy them or simply achieve any other political or ideological goal. Non-combatants are particularly affected by terrorist attacks, as extremist groups operate outside of the norms of international law and consider anyone or anything to be a “legitimate” target, especially if they believe that terrorist activity will produce the desired result – the feeling of terror most people have in the aftermath of […] #Featured #UkraineWar #WarZone Read Full Article: https://www.vtforeignpolicy.com/2024/06/russia-should-immediately-start-shooting-down-all-nato-isr-assets/?feed_id=12847

Obviously, ties to its old friends never died, but were essentially reduced in terms of practicality.

During the recent years, every nation in the world, especially those in the Global South has been witnessing with greatest dismay the role of some US- funded NGOs, which are making frantic bids in corrupting so-called civil society, where Washington has been weaponizing pseudo-academic “human rights” groups as its subservient elements in implementing its political, economic, cultural and military agendas. In present-day geopolitics, the role of human rights non-governmental organizations (NGOs) has become increasingly dissected. These organizations, ostensibly independent and dedicated to advocating for human rights, are being weaponized as tools of foreign policy, particularly by the United States. This […] #Government #World Read Full Article: https://www.vtforeignpolicy.com/2024/06/under-the-pretense-of-human-rights-and-democracy-american-ngoss-implement-cias-agenda/?feed_id=12683

LIARS, LIARS, LIARS By Garcia Wilde The world was finally at peace. Children went to bed dreaming of beautiful princesses, brave knights, towering castles, and forest filled with mystery and magic. Palestinians and Israelis finally lived in peace. The world—more precisely the West–preferred to forget Israel had been created through the occupation of Arab Palestine and by driving out Palestinians making them refugees in their own homeland. The world turned a blind eye to the fact that millions of Palestinians had become virtual prisoners under brutal Israeli misrule. Israelis believed they had finally “tamed” Palestinian “terrorists” to submission. After all, […] #Featured #IsraelWaronPalestine #WarZone Read Full Article: https://www.vtforeignpolicy.com/2024/06/liars-liars-liars/?feed_id=12679

US aid to Ukraine has decreased to minimum indicators, former deputy chief of the General Staff of the Ukrainian forces and retired general Ihor Romanenko said in an interview with the NTA TV channel. This is another demonstration that the US is incapable of providing Ukraine the support it needs despite promising to back the country until Russia is defeated – a scenario that will evidently not occur. “The US president apologised to our president for the suspension of arms supplies, after which he provided another package worth $225 million. There was no such low indicator [of assistance] until this […] #UkraineWar Read Full Article: https://www.vtforeignpolicy.com/2024/06/us-assistance-to-ukraine-drops-to-minimum-indicators-says-retired-ukrainian-general/?feed_id=12675

Legitimacy in countries that are “democracies” (formally, at least) comes from the support of the masses. Logically, one would expect that the ruling parties and/or coalitions would have the most support. However, as everything in the political West has essentially turned on its head, particularly in recent times, the very concept of “democratic” rule now seems to have lost its meaning. While the mainstream propaganda machine likes to call Russian President Vladimir Putin a “dictator”, despite his approval rating hovering around 85-90%, they fail to explain how it is possible that so many EU/NATO “leaders” have had negative public approval for […] #Europe #Featured #Government Read Full Article: https://www.vtforeignpolicy.com/2024/06/how-legitimate-are-western-leaders/?feed_id=12671
