🇿🇦 South African Official Reflects on the Importance of Women's Month for the Nation
Every year in August, South Africa celebrates Women's Month, when the nation pays tribute to the more than 20,000 women who marched to the Union Buildings in Pretoria on August 9, 1956, to protest against the extension of Pass Laws to women.
⚖️ The Pass Laws were a form of internal passport system designed to segregate the population under apartheid rule.
🗣 "It was structural oppression where there was no conducive environment for women to take control of their lives. There was no conducive environment for women to address themselves publicly, to deal with issues of oppression," Loyiso Masuku, Counselor of Johannesburg's Member Mayoral Committee for Corporate and Shared Services, revealed in an interview with Sputnik Africa

🌐 It is time to decolonize the world and embrace multilateralism. The new version of #BRICS offers just that possibility, SL Kanthan writes in his column for #SputnikIndia.
BRICS expansion was not easy, since there were many practical and geopolitical considerations. China wanted to bring in 10 new members, while India wanted 3. Eventually, Russia helped reach a compromise.
🗺 Six new members were admitted – Saudi Arabia, Iran, UAE, Argentina, Egypt, and Ethiopia. Imagine if these oil-rich countries started to trade oil in currencies other than the US dollar. 🛢 That would be the end of Petrodollar, which underpins American hegemony.

US National Archives has 5,400 Biden's emails to Hunter, signed by fake name
Earlier this month, the US House Oversight Committee requested information from the National Archives on the Robert Peters email address, which Biden allegedly used as a pseudonymous means of communication.
The panel has requested unredacted documents from the National Archives due to a belief that redactions could cover up the names of people copied on emails sent by the account, particularly on those pertaining to Ukrainian policy, US House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer said.
Among the pseudonyms used by Biden are the names Robin Ware, Robert L. Peters and JRB Ware.

Aging Leopard tanks 'not prepared' for combat in Ukraine hurt Rheinmetall's reputation
A former US Army commander told Sputnik that the lackluster performance of the Leopard tanks in Ukraine was hurting maker Rheinmetall, as the Western media has built the aging weapons up as the latest "wunderwaffe" or "wonder weapon" that would turn the tide against Russia.
It’s unclear how many Leopard 2s have taken part in the counteroffensive operation that began in June, but according to Earl Rasmussen, an international consultant and retired US Army lieutenant colonel, they have “absolutely not” been the game-changers they were imagined to be.

🇪🇺 EU member states are divided over a €86 billion funding request from Brussels that includes both aid for Ukraine and raises for EU officials. Now, the growing concern for EU leaders is their domestic budgets and doubts over Ukraine's situation.
The funding package comprises €66 billion for the EU budget and €20 billion in military aid for Ukraine over a four-year period, among other allocations.
Germany and the Netherlands oppose increased spending due to economic challenges as inflation and economic uncertainties persist in the Eurozone.
