Experienced students of colour revolution technologies should have been dismayed several days ago to observe in Tbilisi an ominous replay of a scenario last witnessed ten years ago in Kiev, when the subversive upheaval that wrecked Ukraine was at its height. Now it seems to be Georgia’s turn to be wrecked if, that is, having learned nothing the Georgian government repeats the ruinous errors of their Ukrainian counterparts and the Georgian people stand idly by as their country is subjected to systematic assault by professional foreign con artists and their local disciples. The ominous spectacle in question is the invasion…

This question is rhetorical, of course, because such an event was never scheduled. The properly formulated question is why a classical colour revolution isn’t now in progress in Moldova, after the fraudulent elections that recently took place in that country? The blatantly unfair “electoral” process which resulted in Maia Sandu’s alleged victory, critical to the collective West as its adventure in Ukraine turns into a debacle, meets all the criteria that trigger a “spontaneous” colour revolution of the sort to which we have grown painfully accustomed. But instead of facing civil turbulence for the dishonestly conducted 3 November Presidential election,…
Serbia’s leadership are lucky that international law does not prescribe liability for political malpractice. If it did, they would find themselves in the dock. As if Serbia had other viable options and acting with brazen contempt for the vital interests of the country, they have rudely turned down the Russian President’s courteous invitation to attend the forthcoming BRICS conference in Kazan on 22 October, reaffirming vocally instead their commitment to the “European path.” Ironically, at approximately the same time a revealing report ordered by the European Commission and authored by former EU commissioner Mario Draghi was published, with less than…
Throughout the decades of the Cold War, whilst the blocs were competing, two major attractions worked powerfully to the advantage of the West. Firstly, the comfort and prosperity that it was able to provide to its citizens, which its Eastern rivals could hardly match. The second feature that in the eyes of the world gave the West a huge competitive edge was the comparatively better performance of its institutions in securing individual liberties. The twin advantages of prosperity and the impression that the West valued freedom neutralised successfully most of the theoretical critique of the capitalist social and economic model.…

And read on… FINANCIAL TIMES (June 22, 2024) Serbia turns blind eye to its ammunition ending up in Ukraine Moscow-friendly Belgrade exported about €800mn of shells to western allies since 2022 Serbia has been discreetly stepping up sales of ammunition to the west that ends up bolstering the defence of Ukraine — even though it is one of only two European countries not to join western sanctions against Russia. Estimates shared with the Financial Times put Serbia’s ammunition exports that have come to Ukraine via third parties at about…
Telegram owner Pavel Durov’s detention in Paris over a month ago provoked а flurry of attention and animated comments. But soon thereafter the case strangely vanished from the radar screen. The high profile affair, which initially stirred enormous public interest on account of its privacy and freedom of expression ramifications, suddenly went cold after the French authorities published a lengthy list of grave criminal charges against Durov and released him provisionally on a 5-million- euro bail. In Paris, where Durov presumably was staying whilst waiting for the resolution of his case, not even the paparazzi exhibited much interest in catching…

Paul Craig Roberts’ analyses sound increasingly realistic and less fanciful with the passage of time as unfolding events confirm them As I said would happen, Putin’s refusal to quickly win the conflict with Ukraine has widened the conflict into the beginnings of WW III. Putin himself now acknowledges this fact. In response to a journalist’s question about the consequences of what appears to be a US-UK decision to permit missile strikes from Ukraine deep into Russia, Putin said: “The Ukrainian army is not capable of using cutting-edge high-precision long-range systems supplied by the West. They cannot do that. These weapons…
After being released on bail from a French prison, Russian entrepreneur Pavel Durov made several statements which indicate that he is labouring under grave illusions about the nature of his predicament. He described the action of the French authorities, which resulted in his arrest and detention on French territory, as “surprising and misguided.” He then went on to question the legal premise of his detention and subsequent indictment, which is that he could be held “personally responsible for other people’s illegal use of Telegram.” It is disappointing to see a thirty-nine years old sophisticated cosmopolitan adult, traumatised as he must…
