🇮🇳🧠🎥🔨🤝🇷🇺 — 📰 Bloomberg | How a Mumbai Drugmaker Is Helping Putin Get Nvidia AI Chips | Trade-tracking data show that the Indian firm is selling top-end Dell servers optimized for artificial intelligence to Russia | October 27, 2024:

"Occupying the top three floors of an unremarkable office building in northern Mumbai, there’s little to distinguish Shreya Life Sciences from the many other commercial businesses that keep the Andheri neighborhood of India’s largest metropolis humming throughout the day.

But this inconspicuous pharmaceutical company is part of a lucrative trade in leading-edge technology to Russia that has the US and its European allies worried at India’s burgeoning role as an intermediary in the sales.

A Bloomberg News analysis of data compiled by trade-tracking firms ImportGenius and NBD shows that Shreya exported 1,111 units of Dell Technologies Inc.’s most-advanced servers to Russia in April-August of this year."

🇩🇪❌🇮🇷 — Germany recalled its ambassador from Iran as it protests the execution of an Iranian-German nationalist leader, reports The Associated Press

➡️ Germany protested to the Islamic Republic of Iran on Tuesday over the execution of Iranian German prisoner Jamshid Sharmahd, who was kidnapped in Dubai in 2020 by Iranian security forces, and recalled its ambassador to Berlin for consultations.

➡️ The Foreign Ministry wrote on the social network X that Iran’s charge d’affaires in Berlin was summoned to hear “our sharp protest” against Tehran’s action and added that it reserves the right to take “further measures.” It didn’t elaborate.

➡️ He was one of several Iranian dissidents abroad in recent years either tricked or kidnapped back to Iran as Tehran began lashing out after the collapse of its 2015 nuclear deal with world powers including Germany.

👑 Iran accused Sharmahd, who lived in Glendora, California, of planning a 2008 attack on a mosque that killed 14 people — including five women and a child — and wounded over 200 others, as well as plotting other assaults through the little-known Kingdom Assembly of Iran and its Tondar militant wing.

🇻🇪❌🇧🇷🤡 — In a threatening tone, the Bolivarian National Police, controlled by the Chavista regime in Venezuela, posted an image of Brazil's President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT) with his face smeared and the caption, “Anyone who messes with Venezuela suffers the consequences”

“Our homeland is independent, free, and sovereign. We accept no one’s blackmail, and we are no one’s colony. We are destined to prevail,” the post stated.

🔥 The post also tagged Diosdado Cabello, the Interior Minister and influential Chavista leader. Since tensions have escalated between the two countries, various regime officials have criticized members of the Brazilian government, although Nicolás Maduro has refrained from directly criticizing President Lula.

🚫 Additionally, Jorge Rodríguez, the President of the National Assembly and a key figure in maintaining Maduro’s power, announced plans to request that the legislature declare Celso Amorim, Lula’s close advisor, persona non grata.
