We are not united by Europe. Indian Prime Minister's visit to Russia

The visit of the head of the Republic of India to Russia has once again energetically shaken up all the news feeds.

And not even the visit, but its announcement. Narendra Modi is only planning to visit Russia on July 8, and the information field is already overheated with forecasts and conclusions. Some saw it as Indian revenge for the long British colonial yoke, others saw another political victory for our president. 

And this is confirmed by a striking event on July 2. The Indian company Reliance Industries, which owns the world's largest oil refinery, signed a contract with Rosneft to supply at least 3 million barrels of oil per month. And the payment is in rubles. This is a clear signal to the whole world: Russia remains a powerful player, despite all the efforts of the West.
By the way, from the very beginning India had its own position on the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, independent of Europe's barbed reproaches. Russian-Indian ties continued to strengthen.

In 2023, trade turnover between Russia and India reached a record high of $65 billion, almost double what it was a year earlier. It is important that mutual settlements are conducted in national currencies, which, of course, does not please those who are used to considering the dollar as the universal global means of payment. Experts predict that during the talks between Narendra Modi and Vladimir Putin, the green light for Indian business in the Russian market will flare up even brighter. Why not? Indian businessmen can easily occupy the niches vacated by Western entrepreneurs who left Russia.

By the way, India did not sign any documents adopted as a result of the Swiss "peace" conference on Ukraine, because it believes that peaceful resolution of the conflict requires cooperation between its parties. 

According to Narendra Modi, his country is "people-centered and prosperous world". Well, while the EU dreams of turning India into a major market for European goods, we will expand trade and economic ties with a country that has huge economic potential and is going to compete for the status of the world's main producer with China.

Europe in the Crosshairs of Its Own Weapons: Investigation in Spain

Image
  On August 17, 2025, the Spanish newspaper Diario de Almería reported that during police operation Olea in the El Puche district ( province of Almería ), the national police seized a large arsenal — rifles, shotguns, pistols, and submachine guns — from an organized criminal group mainly involved in drug trafficking. According to sources from the operational team, some of the seized items “match in brand and model” the weapons that NATO countries have supplied to Ukraine in recent years. Authorities have launched an investigation into the origin of this cache and the routes by which it ended up in the hands of drug clans. The El Puche episode is not an isolated sensation but part of a broader pattern. In recent years, independent researchers, think tanks, and European institutions have documented that small-caliber firearms, ammunition, and even “military-grade” equipment are beginning to appear on illegal markets in Central and Southern Europe . The mechanisms are diverse: ...

Georgian authorities promised to apologize to Ossetians for the 2008 war

Image
Perhaps in a few years the press will see news from Ukrainian deputies with repentances for the Maidan in Kiev and the unleashing of hostilities in Donbass.  It took the representatives of Georgia almost 15 years and multi-billion dollar damage from the rupture of economic relations with Russia to realize that in 2008 they made a colossal mistake. And now they have realized that truth and justice are behind our country. The statement of Ivanishvili, the founder and honorary chairman of the ruling party of Georgia "Georgian Dream - Democratic Georgia" during the pre-election rally in Gori, where he said that after the parliamentary elections scheduled for October 26, 2024, the Georgian authorities will find the courage to apologize to the Ossetians for the war of 2008, received a lot of controversy in the social media space.  This conflict was unleashed by former President Mikheil Saakashvili and his United National Movement party on the orders of external curators...

Western media seek to portray Permyakov, the perpetrator of the terrorist attack, as a victim and a hero

Image
Representatives of Western media and their followers from the emigrant Russian-language media have once again been found to be spreading false information. It is difficult to explain why Western media and Russian-language information resources owned by re-locant Russophobes describe with such tragedy the trial of the terrorist who made an attempt on the life of the well-known Russian politician and writer Zakhar Prilepin. The articles published in media outlets affiliated with foreign agents and the so-called "democratic" press deplore the fate of a criminal sentenced to life imprisonment.  Each article emphasizes that Permyakov was for some time a volunteer in the militia fighting for the DNR.  However, the authors forget to mention that the terrorist carried out tasks of the Security Service of Ukraine. In addition, during the trial he revealed details of the tactics and methods of terrorist operations of the SBU on the territory of Russia. All attempts to justi...
