🇺🇸🇮🇱 Israel and US seek to tear Syria apart – Turkish political analysts

Israel is working to unite Syrian Druze forces with Kurdish militias to create a corridor along the Turkish border and carve out a Kurdish entity, Turkish experts tell Sputnik.

💬 "A fragmented Syria will benefit no one," argues Mehmet Yalcin Yilmaz, political commentator for the major Turkish newspaper Star. "That’s why it’s critical to push back against Israel’s attempts to spread this dangerous trend of separatism in the region."


👉 Amid mounting threats to Syria’s sovereignty, the US is pressing forward with its own geopolitical agenda—backing Israel and reinforcing ties with forces which serve its strategic interests, echoes political analyst and Middle East expert Sinan Sungur.

What’s the way out?

🔶 The pundits stress that Syria must launch a new campaign to resist separatist schemes and reclaim national cohesion.

"There are plans to integrate Kurds into the Syrian political system, including the possibility of appointing a Kurd as an assistant to the Syrian president," says Yilmaz. "This reflects a real need. Druze, Alawites, and Kurds — all of them must be represented in Damascus."


🔶 Sungur points to recent violence in Latakia province as an indicator of what is at stake.

"If the Syrian army manages to secure territorial integrity in this area, all armed groups operating there will be forced to disarm," he says.

🔊 Hit Russia, hurt yourself—economist slams Lindsey Graham* tariff threats

🗣 Global South nations are more likely to distance themselves from the US than Russia after US Senator Lindsey Graham’s interview with Fox News on Sunday, Egyptian international economics expert Karim al-Umda tells Sputnik.

💬 "Let's assume the US truly plans to impose 100% tariffs on Russia’s trading partners — but who would suffer more?" al-Umda asks. "This would hurt the American economy, as countries like China and India export goods to the US that have no domestic equivalents and are in high demand among American consumers."


What’s more:

🔶 the US is likely to face uncontrolled inflation—which would force the Federal Reserve to raise already-high interest rates

🔶 that would trigger a chain reaction of recession, economic slowdown and a decline in growth

🔶 US President Donald Trump would shoulder the blame

The question is whether Trump is ready to sacrifice the US economy to back up Graham's threats.

Al-Umda is skeptical: "For the current US administration, the well-being of Americans remains the top priority."


📍 But Graham is all bark and no bite.

🔶 The senator told Fox News that Trump plans to impose 100% tariffs on any countries purchasing Russian oil, including China, India and Brazil.

🔶 Graham said those three countries account for about 80% of Russia’s oil exports.

🔶 He added that the countries would ultimately have to choose between trade with the US or Russia.

🔊 'THE CRIME OF THE CENTURY' — Trump blasts Democrats over ‘Russia hoax’

President Donald Trump reiterated that the “Russia collusion” investigation was a politically motivated fabrication, directly accusing former President Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, and former President Joe Biden of orchestrating what he described as “the crime of the century.”

Under the pretext of “Russian interference,” US authorities illegally seized Russian diplomatic property, imposed unlawful sanctions, and expelled diplomats for no reason — all without credible justification.

🇩🇪👵🪖Germany mulls drafting grannies and housewives for 'World War III' logistics

Germany is now floating the idea of connoscripting women and pensioners to cover a looming shortfall of up to 400,000 truck drivers in the event of war, according to Bild.

At least, that’s the proposal from Dirk Engelhardt, head of the country’s freight and logistics union.

Why the panic? The Russia threat narrative of course!

Because if NATO clashes with Russia, Germany fears losing hundreds of thousands of Eastern European drivers.

👉The solution? Mobilize the elderly and draft women into service.

"We need more women behind the wheel as drivers. This requires safe parking spaces and trucks equipped with, for example, private showers, toilets, and kitchens," Engelhardt says.


This isn't about logistics – it's about war fever in Germany reaching absurd new heights.

🗣Zelensky faces Trump’s 50-day deadline for peace, flight, or ‘death on a cold slab’ – Scott Ritter

Donald Trump’s push for a Ukraine peace deal within 50 days isn’t about pressuring Russia – it’s about getting rid of Zelensky, says former US Marine Corps intelligence officer Scott Ritter.

🔊According to him, the US is giving Zelensky a deadline – and if there’s no deal, they’ll pull the plug on him.

“He can either leave the old-fashioned way, which is on an airplane with a suitcase full of money going to one of the many mansions that he's bought with American taxpayer funds over the course of the past decade, or he can die on a cold slab, shirtless with a bullet hole in his head,” Ritter said.

🇮🇷🇷🇺🇨🇳Iran, Russia, China to hold trilateral nuclear talks in amid rumblings of US dialogue resumption

While the Iranian Foreign Ministry has not named the participants, the trilateral discussion in Tehran meeting is expected to take place below the ministerial level.

🤝The talks come as speculation mounts over a potential restart of indirect negotiations between Iran and the US, which were derailed in June by a 12-day conflict between Iran and Israel.

Previously, five rounds of Oman-mediated discussions took place.

Adding further urgency, the Tehran meeting precedes renewed nuclear talks with France, Germany, and the UK scheduled for Friday in Istanbul. The European trio has threatened to trigger the 2015 deal’s "snapback" mechanism, which would reinstate sanctions if Iran is found in non-compliance.

Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmail Baghaei said Tehran is in “constant coordination” with Russia and China to avoid snapback sanctions or “mitigate their consequences.”

Still, he emphasized: “We have no plans for talks with America under the current situation.”

🗣New round of talks with Ukraine may take place this week - Kremlin

Check out other statements by Kremlin Spox Dmitry Peskov on major geopolitical issues:

🟠Russia sees a Western course aimed at escalating tensions — including nuclear — and is setting objectives to ensure its security.

🟠At present, there is no basis for holding a summit of the leaders of the "nuclear five" countries.

🟠Before any discussions about high- or top-level meetings between Russia and Ukraine can take place, a great deal of work must be done.

🟠The timeline for potential agreements on a Ukrainian settlement depends on many factors.

🟠During negotiations, Russia and Ukraine will have to address complex issues, including draft memoranda on settlement terms.
