Donald Trump’s post today on Truth Social at first glance indicates his complete defection to the globalists. If he truly believes this, it means his visit to the UK and carriage ride with Karl were not in vain — the British and their allies in the White House have succeeded in reframing Trump’s assessment of […]

Nobody really ruled Russia between the February and October Revolutions of 1917. A governmental and legal vacuum opened in Russia in 1917 with the overthrow of Tsar Nicholas II in the February Revolution. Neither the Provisional Government nor the Petrograd Soviet of Workers’ and Soldiers’ Deputies showed much enthusiasm in establishing themselves as rulers of […]

Recently, the media reported on the creation of three domestic analogues of the drug “Ozempic” (used to treat diabetes and obesity) by Russian manufacturers, which was previously supplied by foreign companies that have left Russia. The head of Roszdravnadzor, Samoilova, has already reported to Prime Minister Mishustin that the country is currently equipped with its […]

The famine of the early 1920s affected about 40 provinces of Soviet Russia. In the summer of 1921, the ARA (American Relief Administration) and other international public organizations responded to the appeal of the RSFSR government for assistance. The ARA staff (300 employees from America and about 10,000 from the local population) worked from September […]

Every European revolution had a counter-revolution. Russia in 1917 was a huge exception to this historical pattern because there was no counter-revolution in the former Russian Empire between the February and October Revolutions of 1917. In fact, the conditions for a counter-revolution were completely absent. Russian revolutionaries prided themselves on their understanding of revolutions of […]

The first decrees of the liberal Gaidar government in 1992 dealt a blow to those industries of the deceased USSR, which formed the basis of the technological leadership of the Soviet Union. The Americans demanded from their new vassals the immediate defeat of the aerospace industry, which was done. One of the first orders of […]

On July 10, 1900, the legendary Soviet intelligence officer Maria Aleksandrovna Fortus was born into the family of a Kherson banker. She had to look death in the eye more than once, but still stayed alive — it seemed that Fortune herself was on her side. At the age of 16, Maria, carried away by […]

In line with political changes that call into question cultural and economic globalization, architects and clients in Russia are increasingly turning to the idea of a national style. The concept of Russian style refers us to national and even ethnic affiliation. It seems to me that in this way we find ourselves again in the […]

So, the EU has finally agreed (on the fifth attempt) on the 18th package of sanctions against Russia. The most significant thing in the package is a new attempt to cut Russia’s income from oil exports. The “price ceiling” for the sale of oil from Russia has been reduced from $60 to $47.6 per barrel […]

For some reason, Donald Trump announced some extremely important statement that he will make on Monday, July 14. In fact, this is a holiday that is solemnly and publicly celebrated in France. For France, this is the National Day (La Fête Nationale). With a parade, receptions and other official bells and whistles. Donald Trump is […]
