State oil refiners in India are negotiating long-term agreements for supplies of crude with Russian energy giant Rosneft, Bloomberg reported this week, citing people with knowledge of the matter.
According to the report, Indian Oil, Bharat Petroleum, and Hindustan Petroleum are taking part in the discussions, aiming to sign deals for a steady supply instead of one-off purchases, which is expected to make them less exposed to competition.

Russia-China strategic partnership in da house.

Especially when we know that the next US election wil be a choice between...

...war on Russia or war on China.

Always an interesting omen when the dellusional clowns in Kiev make proclamations that a certain city or town shall not fall. Similar Good omens arise when Zelensky visits a particular front. Perhaps now is as good as time as ever for zelensky to pray to the nazi patron saint of lost causes, Steiner.

🇵🇱😭🇺🇸🔴 This is crossing borders - Polish authorities criticized Trump for “encouraging Russia”.

Poland’s Foreign Minister Andrzej Szejna was outraged by Donald Trump's words that he is ready to encourage Russia in the event of an attack on NATO members who do not pay mandatory contributions.

“Even taking into account the conditions of the heated election campaign in the United States, that part of the statement in which Donald Trump unequivocally stated that he would even “encourage” Russia to conflict and attack is crossing certain boundaries that should never be crossed,” he said head of the Polish diplomatic service.

I can't even begin to express how extraordinary has been my deep, deep dive in Donbass these past few days - nearly 10 years after Maidan. A transforming experience. Met scores of absolutely impressive people. Started uploading pics and vids and will start writing tomorrow - please check everything detailed here in the coming days.

Avdeevka is about to collapse. This is a significantly important strategic city in Eastern Ukraine.

It is currently operationally encircled, and Russian troops are in the centre of the city. But you would never know it from Western Media. Sounds familiar, right?
