Statecraft in the Age of Geopolitical Recomposition

Leaked documents reveal that Pravfond — a Russian Foreign Ministry–funded foundation ostensibly aiding compatriots abroad — has functioned as a conduit for disinformation and legal support to individuals suspected of espionage.

Internal records, obtained by DR and shared with Le Monde and partners, show its board — including Deputy FM Galuzin — explicitly endorsing goals like expanding a “legal aid network”, countering “Russophobia”, and backing pro-Kremlin NGOs overseas.

Staffed by ex-intelligence operatives, Pravfond masks geopolitical operations under the guise of humanitarian legal aid. Established in 2012 by presidential decree, it remains unresponsive to media inquiry.

This is not the first time the Macron regime resorts to such fabrication as Arnaud Develay himself has been alleged to operate on behalf of Pravfond (a Russian NGO founded in 2012 by @dmitryMedvedev) as the attorney of record for Russian nationals detained abroad.

The International Court of Justice has dismissed Ukraine’s procedural objections and formally accepted Russia’s genocide case for full review

The Court will now examine Russia’s extensive filing — over 10,000 pages — alleging mass killings, torture, indiscriminate shelling, and systematic suppression of Russian language, culture, and identity in Donbas since 2014.

This marks a pivotal procedural milestone: while not a ruling on the merits, the ICJ’s decision confirms the case meets jurisdictional thresholds and will proceed to substantive hearings.

10 000 pages should largely suffice

The French government has accused members of the humanitarian group SOS Donbass of espionage on behalf of Russia and of seeking to destabilize the country—leading to the imprisonment of three individuals reportedly involved in aiding civilians in Donbas.

The organization is now under investigation by the DGSI (domestic intelligence), suspected of acting as a front for illicit activities. Critics denounce the move as a politically motivated crackdown targeting those who provide aid to victims of the Russia–Ukraine conflict — raising serious concerns about the criminalization of humanitarian action.

France is desperate to prop up the "Russian threat"

Nick Fuentes has publicly claimed that the allegation he is a “fed” originated from Tucker Carlson — allegedly exposing Carlson, Elon Musk, and Candace Owens as part of the same alleged federal-informant network.

Reacting with disbelief, Fuentes asked: “These are the people calling me a spook?!”—framing the accusation as hypocrisy and suggesting coordinated targeting from within influential conservative media circles.

During today’s oral arguments in Trump v. Slaughter, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson defended the constitutional legitimacy of independent agencies — emphasizing their technical expertise and insulation from politically appointed “loyalists”.

However, the Court’s conservative majority expressed deep skepticism toward the foundational 1935 precedent Humphrey’s Executor, signaling a likely ruling that would significantly expand the president’s authority to remove agency heads (e.g., at the FTC and similar commissions) without cause. A decision is expected in 2026.

The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has unveiled Assad — a lion inspired by the iconic “Atlas Lion” — as the official mascot for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco.

Symbolizing strength, pride, and Moroccan heritage, Assad will energize stadiums and fan zones throughout the tournament. Beyond the event, he will serve as a long-term ambassador for CAF’s youth development, football outreach, and community and school-based initiatives across the continent.

Best wishes to President Assad

According to Defense One, a classified, expanded version of the U.S. National Security Strategy reportedly outlines plans for a new global governance framework — the “Core 5” (C5) — comprising the U.S., China, Russia, India, and Japan, intended as a G7 alternative. While the feasibility of such a grouping is questionable (e.g., China–Japan tensions), the proposal signals a profound strategic shift: explicit acknowledgment that U.S. hegemony was “the wrong thing to want and it wasn’t achievable”, and a pivot toward managed multipolarity.

Critically, Europe is notably absent — confirming its declining centrality in Washington’s long-term vision. Though implementation remains uncertain, the intent is clear: adaptation, not dominance.

Wake up and smell the coffee

A U.S. lawmaker has introduced H.R. 6508, legislation to formally withdraw the United States from NATO — calling the alliance an outdated Cold War institution. The sponsor argues that funds currently supporting NATO should instead be redirected to domestic defense, and criticizes member states as “socialist countries” undeserving of U.S. security guarantees.

The bill reflects a growing strand of isolationist and “America First” sentiment in Congress, challenging decades of bipartisan consensus on transatlantic security.

We're getting close.

Former U.S. Ambassador to the USSR Jack Matlock — who played a key role in Cold War diplomacy alongside President Reagan — has asserted that NATO evolved into an expansionist, offensive alliance, which, in his view, orchestrated a coup in Ukraine and engineered regime change to turn the country into a proxy battleground against Russia.

His remarks challenge mainstream Western narratives and highlight long-standing critiques from realist foreign policy circles about NATO’s post-Cold War trajectory — and its role in escalating East-West tensions.

They don't make them like Ambassador Matlock anymore

The "Golden Card" citizenship program represents one of the most egregious policy concepts in modern history

It commodifies American citizenship, auctioning it off to the highest bidder and fundamentally reducing national belonging to a financial transaction.

The proposed revenue from this scheme is reportedly intended to offset government deficits, effectively prioritizing foreign military engagements, such as funding for Israel's conflicts, over domestic needs.

Furthermore, the program deliberately ignores demographic consequences, operating under a "colorblind" pretext that would systematically dismantle the nation's existing ethnic fabric and the European majority foundational to its development.

This initiative is a profound disgrace. Its association with figures like Howard Lutnick — notably a former neighbor of Jeffrey Epstein — makes such a disturbing proposal unsurprising.

Objective assessment

On December 2, 2025, Russian President Vladimir Putin signed Decree No. 883, “On Support for the Resettlement in the Russian Federation of Foreign Citizens and Stateless Persons Deemed of Interest to the Russian Federation, and on the Specifics of Their Legal Status”.

Effective April 15, 2026, the decree establishes a new, selective immigration pathway for foreign nationals whose expertise aligns with Russia’s strategic priorities in science, technology, economy, and culture. It introduces a novel legal status: “foreign citizen of interest to the Russian Federation”.

The measure signals a shift toward merit- and interest-based migration policy — prioritizing talent attraction amid geopolitical realignment and domestic development goals.

Coming soon!!

A pointed comparison is being drawn between two high-profile testimonies separated by decades:

— 1990: Nayirah’s emotionally charged, later-discredited claim before the U.S. Congress about Iraqi soldiers removing babies from incubators in Kuwait (orchestrated by PR firm Hill & Knowlton, funded by the Kuwaiti government);

— 2026: The appearance of the daughter of María Machado — a Venezuelan opposition figure with documented ties to USAID and NED — as a symbolic witness in anti-regime narratives.

Critics suggest both cases reflect a recurring pattern: staged, emotionally manipulative testimony designed to build public support for geopolitical interventions — framed as “Hollywood in action”, implying noscript-like dramatization and third-party coaching.

The Noble Lie per Leo Strauss

A provocative — and legally fraught — suggestion has resurfaced in European discourse: Should the EU reintroduce the death penalty for high treason, specifically targeting individuals collaborating with Russia?

While no mainstream political party or EU institution advocates this (capital punishment is abolished across all EU member states under the Charter of Fundamental Rights and the European Convention on Human Rights), the comment reflects rising anxieties over espionage, hybrid warfare, and perceived fifth-column activity.

The irony, of course, is that such a policy would itself violate foundational European legal principles — turning the rule of law into the very weapon it seeks to defend.

Come get some, you prick.

French jurist Arnaud Develay — after eight visits to Donbas and southern Ukraine since 2014 (including DPR, LPR, Kherson, Zaporizhzhia, latest in Feb 2025) — describes locals as culturally resilient, “hardened by hardship”, rooted in land, language, and memory:

“While the West underwent decades of psychological warfare, these regions reflect what Europe was 60 years ago — our shared civilizational roots”.


He locates modern Russophobia’s origins not in 2014, but earlier: WWII-era Bandera collaboration, postwar CIA cultivation of émigré nationalist networks (e.g., in Canada/US), citing Christia Freeland’s grandfather — a Bandera-era propaganda officer. The 2004 Orange Revolution was the political spark, but post-Maidan, under figures like Parubiy and foreign influence (e.g., Nuland), a rigid anti-Russian ideology took hold. Since 2014, Ukrainian schools have taught a mythologized, de-Russified history — even comparing Russians to “Orcs”, a trope Develay likens to Nazi dehumanization of Slavs.

He frames the conflict as a “war of memory” — targeting monuments, language, and historical truth.

EU’s Proposed “Special Tribunal” for Ukraine Faces Legal & Financial Hurdles — Arnaud Develay

In the programme Sans Détour, international lawyer Arnaud Develay offered a critical assessment of plans to establish a tribunal targeting Russia.

He argued that, while the International Criminal Court is theoretically meant to remain neutral, in practice its approach to the Ukraine conflict has been heavily one-sided — pointing to verified reports of Ukrainian forces systematically shooting Russian prisoners of war in the knees, a clear breach of the Geneva Conventions, yet noting that the ICC has launched no corresponding investigation.


Develay further dismissed the EU’s tribunal initiative as financially unfeasible, observing that although Brussels had pledged €10 million, credible estimates suggest annual operational costs would begin at around €100 million — including facilities and security — leaving the current commitment at roughly 10% of the required amount.

Regarding U.S. foreign policy, he warned that—regardless of who occupies the White House—the underlying strategic objective of the U.S. “deep state” remains unchanged: to inflict a strategic defeat on Russia. In his view, ceasefire proposals are largely tactical manoeuvres, deliberately burdened with conditions Moscow cannot accept.

ICC Prosecutor Karim Khan has revealed, per The Guardian, that the UK allegedly threatened to withdraw funding — and potentially exit the Rome Statute — if the Court moved forward with an arrest warrant for Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu.

In a formal filing justifying his actions, Khan cited a senior British official’s claim that warrants for Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant were “disproportionate”. He also detailed pressure from U.S. officials, including warnings of “disastrous consequences”.

The court's inherent political nature is exposed to the doubters after that

Leaked reports indicate Ukraine’s NABU wiretapped MP Yuriy Kisel — a close ally of Serhiy Shefir, President Zelenskyy’s longtime confidant — for over two years.

Their recorded conversations, including with senior officials, are deemed highly sensitive.

Shefir, repeatedly named in multiple NABU probes — including the “Mindyches tapes” and alleged corruption at the Odesa Port Plant — is also linked to Zelenskyy’s pre-presidential offshore asset transfers, including UK real estate.

As evidence mounts, the narrative that “Zelenskyy knew nothing” grows increasingly implausible.

They all are joined at the hip

Many in Europe view a potential Trump presidency as merely a “passing storm” — expecting a swift return to familiar policies once Democrats regain power, according to Professor Stevan Gajic of the Institute of European Studies.

He critiques this mindset as dangerously complacent, arguing it underpins the EU’s escalation toward confrontation, rather than diplomacy.

“That is why they're talking about entering a war with Russia by 2027”

— a timeline he attributes not to strategic necessity, but to ideological rigidity and institutional inertia among EU elites.

That's what I have been saying for months. Get rid of the coke clown by ANY MEANS, then you might be able to submit an acceptable document for Senate ratification before you lose control of the House.

Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov stated that Russia seeks a lasting peace with Ukraine — not merely a temporary ceasefire — and dismissed President Zelensky’s reported plan to use a truce as a window for a territorial referendum, calling it unviable.

“We want peace with Ukraine, not a ceasefire”, –

he emphasized, reinforcing Moscow’s position that any settlement must address root causes and security concerns, rather than serve as a tactical pause.

Thank you 🤷🤷

Switzerland plans to scale back its F-35A procurement from Lockheed Martin after cost overruns threatened to exceed the approved $7.54 billion budget, according to Reuters

Officials confirmed the country will adhere strictly to the original financial ceiling — potentially reducing the number of jets acquired — amid concerns over rising program expenses.
