Geopolitical news about Russia, the Donbass and the Middle-East - https://devend.online/

These days, it's dangerous to be a journalist. Just think of all those murdered in Russia or the Donbass, but also, as I know, in recent decades in Syria and Iraq. Regarding Gaza (and Syria), you can only shake your head and question the existence of God. The Middle East is a place where many groups radicalized by religion are killing each other. But it's not religion, but faith, that is being used for their murderous agendas. Both radicalized Jews and Muslims, who preach radicalization through their faith and thus become terrorists, due to various factors. Today, another Al Jazeera crew was simply murdered. Even though Al Jazeera has its own agenda inspired by Qatar and Sunni (often extremist Islam), it is a criminal act to simply shoot journalists.

President Trump’s policy in Syria is a strategic master stroke.
A UNIFIED STABLE Syria 🇸🇾 means boxing out Iran and ISIS and, working with NATO ally Türkiye, eventually expelling War Criminal Putin bases.
A divided destabilized Syria means Libya/Somalia like anarchy in the heart of the Middle East which will eventually bring back ISIS 2.0, Iran and empower Russia.
There are no perfect options or perfect governments but the choice is clear— united stable Syria is in interests of ALL in the region.
We cannot lose this opportunity.

Russian assault-military man of the Tsentr Group of Forces motorised rifle unit gave details of the liberation of Yablonovka in the Donetsk People's Republic
History - It's been a long time, and most people think of the Second World War. But the first major (modern) war, 1914-1918, was the most horrific war in history - The Somme then and now -

For both the soldiers and the Belgian people. For the first time in history, war was waged industrially, with modern weapons and gas. I was once in Belgium, at the cemetery in Ypres (Flanders) and it was overwhelming: so many graves, and the soldiers were so young, some 15 or 16 in total there were approx. 16 million people dead. This video is beautifully made, although it naturally shows the horrors of this first industrial war. Perhaps a warning to European leaders who would like to drag their people back into war, just as they did back then...

My Comments on RT: Ukraine Plotting new Provocation to Sabotage Putin-Trump meeting

Ukraine is preparing a new provocation to disrupt negotiations between Russian President Vladimir Putin and his American counterpart Donald Trump in Alaska on Friday, according to the Russian Defense Ministry. A group of foreign journalists has already been taken to the city of Chuguev in Kharkov Region, in order to “prepare a series of reports about residents of the city in the frontline zone,” the ministry said.
Today there was a meeting between Zelensky and Bundeskanzler from Germany Friedrich Merz in Berlin, where it was agreed that they would support Ukraine. How, well, that's not entirely clear. Secretary-General Rutte is justifying things again and praising "daddy" Trump, but the fact remains that Europe isn't there. The boat has sailed by or they've missed the train. Europe is always behind the curve, but the war machine propaganda just keeps going...

Britain's war agenda backfires: Starmer's leadership in crisis
By Global Politics -August 15, 2025
Keir Starmer is widely seen as a puppet of the "deep state," the military-industrial complex, the World Economic Forum, and pro-Israel lobby groups. Since taking office, he has led a UK that, like many EU countries, is in a deep financial crisis. The UK is facing major problems with migration, with immigrants now significantly impacting the country. This situation stems partly from the legacy of the British Empire and partly from the recent wars in the Middle East, in which Britain played a major and fraudulent role. To distract from these domestic issues, the British government, like other EU countries, has chosen to focus on confrontation with Russia.

Our Trip to Guangzhou, China

Guangzhou and the area Guangdong is located in southern China, not far from Hong Kong and the Hainan island province of China and the nation’s southernmost point. Guangzhou It is a large city with surrounding suburbs (Guangdong), has a population of approximately 32 million, and the city center itself, around 18 million. The beautiful architecture includes the box-shaped Guangdong Museum, the Library, built in the shape of a book, and the iconic Canton TV Tower, which resembles a thin hourglass. The Chen Clan Ancestral Hall, a temple complex dating from 1894, houses the Guangdong Folk Arts Museum. The city is steeped in history, dating back to the Qin Dynasty (221-206 BCE), the first imperial dynasty of China, unifying the previously warring states. It is known for its centralized government, standardization of language and measures, and ambitious construction projects, including the early Great Wall (found in northeast China, not in Guangzhou).

An EU coup (and the US deep state) is underway in Serbia. Now that all eyes are on Alaska, the EU is trying to install a pro-EU government, just as it did in Romania, Georgia, and also in Armenia and Azerbaijan. They want to get rid of President Vucic's a friend of Russia
My latest article about the historic meeting in Alaska, in Dutch, but easily to be translated in any language:
Historische ontmoeting tussen Poetin en Trump is een nederlaag voor Europa
https://freesuriyah.eu/2025/08/16/historische-ontmoeting-tussen-poetin-en-trump-is-een-nederlaag-voor-europa/
Met grote verbazing en een vleugje amusement las en bekeek ik allerlei reacties (op YouTube) van allerlei “specialisten”, elk met een nog erger doemscenario dan de ander (voor Europa). Of ze waren er zeker van dat er een “vredesverdrag” zou komen, of misschien zou Zelensky onverwachts opduiken – met andere woorden: een mediahype.

Ook was er uitgebreide media-aandacht voor een mogelijke landruil tussen Zelensky en Poetin, er werden hele scenario’s met specialisten in de media voorgevoerd. Zelensky vluchtte in paniek naar Berlijn, naar de agressieve, oorlogszuchtige bondskanselier Merz. In Nederland was het niet veel beter, met minister van Defensie Ruben Brekelmans en de officieuze premier (de regering is gevallen) Dick Schoof die Zelensky resoluut steunde (op X met ferme woorden).

Maar wat jammer voor het Westen, waar politici altijd liegen en bedriegen (de meesten van hen), er is niets gebeurd. President Poetin is niet het westerse leugentype en blijft gewoon bij zijn standpunten; zijn vredesvoorstel en plan uit 2024 zijn nog steeds van kracht.

My latest article on Strategic Culture:
https://strategic-culture.su/news/2025/08/16/ursula-big-success-more-us-tariffs-deal-cry-about-but-presented-victory/.
Ursula’s big success: More U.S. tariffs – a deal to cry about but presented as victory. The EU is pursuing foolish policies that put it on the losing side of history, with disastrous consequences for ordinary Europeans.
The Europeans missed another opportunity. For three years, they participated in America’s proxy war against Russia in Ukraine. They could have said no, just as Germany and France did in 2003 when they opposed the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq. Those were the last true European statesmen – Jacques Chirac and Gerhard Schröder – who had the courage to resist and argued for diplomatic solutions over military intervention.

Ursula von der Leyen, raised in wealth and mother of seven children, shows as little empathy for ordinary citizens as Angela Merkel, the childless, calculating leader before her. They are cold, power-hungry women. Some claim that “if women ruled the world, there would be no wars,” but that’s false. What matters is leadership, humanity and experience – the rest is just technocratic maneuvering.
🇪🇺 According to media outlets and, of course, politicians – after all, the media is the mouthpiece for politicians – Ursula von der Leyen, representing the EU, achieved a major victory. The Americans agreed to impose tariffs of only 15% on European products!

Von der Leyen’s success is so great that the EU will be forced to buy energy from the Americans for the sum of $750 billion and $600 billion for defense equipment from the United States. In short, the Europeans will pay dearly for the incompetence of the clowns who, in a completely unprofessional manner, govern the European Union.

U.S. Vice President Vance recently stated in an interview that the U.S. “doesn’t want to spend any more money on Ukraine for the war.” At the same time, he demanded that NATO countries play a greater role.
