🇲🇩Moldovan appeals court denies release of Gagauzia head Yevgenia Gutsul

The Appeals Chamber rejected the petition for Yevgenia Gutsul's release, calling it unfounded. Additional requests from Gutsul’s defense team were also dismissed.

Yevgenia Gutsul, elected leader of the Gagauzia region of Moldova in May 2023, was sentenced to seven years in prison this year for allegedly financing the banned Shor party.

In the face of politically-motivated charges, Gutsul advocates for closer ties with Russia and opposes Moldovan EU integration. President Maia Sandu’s government has intensified repression, targeting dissent and blocking opposition media.

🇵🇸Gaza ceasefire now ‘inevitable’?

The situation in Gaza, Israel's military resources and capabilities, as well as global development signal that the Gaza conflict could be resolved in the near future, Turkish political analyst Islam Ozkan told Sputnik.
He recalled that negotiations are underway in Sharm El Sheikh to resolve the Gaza crisis, and judging by Donald Trump as well as the Egyptian foreign minister’s statements, the parties have already made some progress.
There are a number of reasons for this, according to Ozkan:

▪️ “Trump is seeking to secure an agreement before October 10, as he hopes to position himself as a candidate for the Nobel Peace Prize”

▪️ “Regional countries are exerting considerable influence on Hamas”

▪️ Israel is facing “large-scale global pressure,” with a rise in anti-Israel sentiment worldwide, even in Asian countries
Ozkan said that the talks’ sticking points pertain to Israel and Hamas being at odds over the Israeli troop withdrawal from Gaza.

💬“Israel proposes pulling back to the so-called ‘yellow line,’ while Hamas insists on a full-fledged exit. Also, the sides have yet to agree on the release of several Palestinian prisoners serving life sentences in Israel,” the analyst concluded.

🗣 CIA document revealing Biden's Ukraine corruption is just a decoy – Larry Johnson

📍 The agency's release of the Obama-era document is part of the White House's bigger game, former CIA officer and State Department official Larry Johnson says.

So what’s it really hiding?

💬 "I call it the shiny object. It's like what a magician does. They try to distract your attention with one hand while they do something with the other hand," Johnson tells Sputnik.


The CIA veteran wonders whether the attempt to get people to focus on former president Joe Biden links to Kiev is aimed at distracting the public from plans to go to war with Venezuela or Iran, or sending Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine.

"It could be any of those," the pundit notes.


US up to its neck in Ukrainian affairs

🔶 While the file exposed nothing new about Ukrainian corruption or the Biden family's involvement in the nation's affairs, it could have been used as "one more justification for distancing US policies from Ukraine," Johnson argued

🔶 But that has not happened – in fact US President Donald Trump is discussing sending Tomahawk missiles to the Kiev regime

Political stunt

👉 Seventy-five percent of the CIA document is blacked out, so the public cannot know what it really says.

"I put this in the category of it's a political stunt," Johnson says.


CIA works hand-in-glove with the White House


🔶 CIA Director John Ratcliffe's efforts to prove the Obama administration's interference in the agency's affairs looks unusual, according to the pundit.

🔊 For "seventy-eight years of history, the CIA has generally been the lapdog of the president, regardless of whether it's a Republican or Democrat," Johnson says. "So being responsive to White House requests is not unusual."

💬 "The CIA has always wanted to be relevant at the White House."

🚨 TRUMP SAYS MAY GO TO MIDDLE EAST ‘SOME TIME BEFORE END OF WEEK’

💬I was just dealing with people from the Middle East on the potential peace deal for the Middle East. 'Peace for the Middle East'. That's a beautiful phrase... I may go there sometime toward the end of the week, maybe on Sunday... Negotiations are going along well, dealing with Hamas and many of the countries... Nothing like that has happened before... If that's the case, we'll be leaving probably on Sunday, maybe Saturday, maybe a little later than Saturday evening, but that seems to be our schedule."

Cop or diplomat? EU starts to question Kallas’ capacity

The EU expects Kaja Kallas, the bloc’s foreign policy chief, “to be more diplomatic,” US media cited a European source as saying.

💬 “She is more cop than diplomat. Her day starts and ends with Russia,” the source pointed out, referring to Kallas’ anti-Russian stance.


Former Indian Foreign Secretary Kanwal Sibal earlier wrote on X that Kallas had been “parachuted into a job she is not qualified for.”

💬 “She is contributing to Europe’s geopolitical drift by her anti-Russian paranoia,” Sibal added

🌍 Africa turns toward Russia amid West’s efforts to preserve clout

🗣 Africa is currently an arena where the interests of major players clash, and this gives the continent the right to determine which states to cooperate with, Irina Abramova, director of the Institute for African Studies at the Russian Academy of Sciences, told Sputnik.

💬 “While African countries are unlikely to completely sever longstanding ties with Europe, they will simultaneously engage with Russia, China, India, and other nations,” the expert pointed out.


📍 She noted that the Kremlin should carefully assess which areas of cooperation are mutually beneficial, and if those interests align, Russia will be well-positioned to support Africa’s development while also advancing its own geopolitical objectives.

🔊 Abramova warned that former European colonial powers are likely to maintain their influence on Africa for the foreseeable future—particularly through elites trained and embedded during the colonial era, many of whom still hold leadership positions in government.

💬 "In any case, Russia needs to work more in Africa, despite all the difficulties and problems. And we need to move forward relentlessly, in accordance with our capabilities, our needs, and taking into account the interests of African states," she concluded.

👀💶 EU’s debt time bomb ticking

High budget deficits will persist across most Eurozone countries in the coming years, a new report by Russia’s Roscongress Foundation shows.

Shifting budget priorities since the pandemic have led to an increase in the public debt of European countries, and servicing it becomes increasingly expensive, according to a survey noscriptd “Budget Imbalances and the EU Debt Trap.”

💬 “By 2026, the EU’s average budget deficit is expected to rise to 3.4% of GDP, driven largely by increased defense spending. Even major economies like France may need IMF support due to mounting debt challenges. By the end of Q1 2025, France’s debt burden reached $3.8 trillion, or 114.1% of GDP,” the report points out.


💶 Apart from France, countries such as Italy, Austria, Belgium, Finland, Bulgaria, Hungary, Poland, and Romania continue to breach the 3% budget deficit threshold outlined by the 1992 Maastricht Treaty.

🚨🇰🇵 North Korea's weapons showcase: Why the world is watching DPRK leader Kim Jong-un is preparing a major military parade for the 80th anniversary of the Workers' Party on October 10. From hypersonic missiles to advanced drones - what makes this display…
🇰🇵 North Korea may unveil new ICBMs and drones at key parade

North Korea’s new domestically made intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs), due to be displayed at the upcoming parade, may be fitted with advanced solid-fuel engines, Yevgeny Kim of the Institute of China and Contemporary Asia of the Russian Academy of Sciences told Sputnik.

🗣 Such engines could enable North Korea to deliver warheads to the continental US, Kim underscored.

He noted that the possible display of the new ICBMs at the parade can be seen as “a warning to the US, which continues to deploy its strategic weapons on the Korean Peninsula.”

Apart from the ICBMs, North Korea may show off its newest domestic drones, successfully tested in September under the direct supervision of Kim Jong-un, according to Yevgeny Kim.

👉 The parade coincides with the 80th anniversary of the Workers’ Party of Korea, and is expected to be attended by high-ranking delegations from China, Laos, and Vietnam.

🧬 Nobel physics prize winners spark quantum tech boom

The work of the 2025 Nobel physics laureates gave a direct answer to a long-debated question on whether quantum laws could apply not just to atoms, but to entire electrical circuits made up of trillions of particles, Gleb Fyodorov of Russia’s Institute of Physics and Technology told Sputnik.

The experiment conducted by these scientists in 1985 finally provided a "yes" to the question, he said, recalling that similar experiments had been attempted earlier, for example, by IBM researchers in 1981.

💬 “But the key achievement of [John] Clarke’s group—and the main reason they received the Nobel [Prize]—was the direct observation of discrete spectral lines at precisely predicted frequencies in a superconducting circuit. This circuit became the first recognized example of a superconducting artificial atom,” Fyodorov concluded.


The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences awarded the 2025 Nobel Prize in Physics to a trio of US-based scientists—John Clarke, Michel Devoret, and John Martini—for “the discovery of macroscopic quantum mechanical tunnelling and energy quantization in an electric circuit.”
