Western Experts Compare Former Yugoslavia with Ukraine
22.02.2014 | 00:00 | Nikolai MALISHEVSKI
The West is intent to divide Ukraine according to Yugoslavia scenario using for the purpose the «color revolution» technology perfected during the Arab Spring. Summing it all up, that’s how the situation in Ukraine is viewed by independent Western experts… «In reality, Washington’s goal is not to push the country into the arms of the European Union, but to deprive Russia of its historical partners. To do this, the United States is prepared to ignite a new civil war on the continent», affirms Thierry Meyssan, a well-known French journalist…
The New Draft UN Security Council Resolution on Syria. A Refined Version of Clumsy Work
22.02.2014 | 00:00 | Alexander MEZYAEV
Last week, several countries initiated a new draft UN Security Council resolution on Syria. Officially, Australia, Luxembourg and Jordan – all non-permanent members of the UN Security Council – were the instigators, although the authorship of three Western powers, the US, Great Britain and France – all permanent members of the Security Council – is not being hidden… The new draft resolution supports the West’s primary objective much more subtlely than the anti-Syrian draft resolutions periodically submitted to the UN Security Council in the past. This objective is to discredit Russia in the international arena whilst at the same time discrediting the UN as an organisation that has allegedly lost the ability to fulfil its own functions of maintaining international peace and security…
War in Ukraine: What is its Hidden Purpose?
21.02.2014 | 10:06 | Alexander BOYTSOV
…The events in Ukraine unfold under the direct and overt interference of the United States and the European Union. Their envoys and diplomats have constantly threatened the President of Ukraine and key members of Cabinet with sanctions… Shots were heard in Kiev, in Western Ukraine «peaceful protesters» assaulted military sites and police stations while Vice President Joe Biden was talking with President Yanukovych on the phone demanding to take the special operations forces from the streets of Ukrainian capital. Probably he wanted them away so that they would not create obstacles on the way of breaking into private homes, robbing pharmacies and killing political opponents in their own offices…
The Conspiracy in Venezuela, or the Maidan with a Latin American Twist
21.02.2014 | 00:00 | Nil NIKANDROV
Attempts to destabilize Venezuela have not ceased, despite the efforts of the Nicolas Maduro government to start a dialog with the opposition. The latest attempt to test the regime’s mettle was an opposition demonstration on February 12 in front of the Attorney General’s office in the center of Caracas. Among the demonstrators’ demands were the immediate release of those arrested for participation in street riots in the cities of Tachira and Merida and early elections… The Venezuelan media has been writing a lot about the striking similarity between the “spontaneous protests” in their country and the Kiev Maidan. In Venezuela U.S. intelligence uses students and Colombian paramilitares, members of militant groups which participate in the cleanup of territories under the control of FARC and ELN guerillas, as cannon fodder…
West Woos Maidan’s Fascists of Convenience
21.02.2014 | 00:00 | Vladislav GULEVICH
The West has used all its diplomatic and propaganda potential to influence the legal government of Ukraine while vigorously giving signs of approval to its agents operating in the country… The information war has been unleashed encompassing the whole Europe. Many editions have started to compare Bashar Assad, the President of Syria, with President of Ukraine Victor Yanukovych. The both are blamed for refusing to cede power to those who the West wants to see at the helm…
CIA‘s Use of Nazi Strategy on Ukrainian Right-Wing Nationalists Unabated since Cold War
20.02.2014 | 00:00 | Wayne MADSEN
The Central Intelligence Agency appears to be caught in a time warp. At the roots of the CIA’s and George Soros’s «resistance» movement in Ukraine lie Ukrainian fascists and pro-Nazis, the ideological forbears of the current Ukrainian right-wing fascist party Svoboda and other radical right and anti-Russian groups largely based in western Ukraine… The prime architect of CIA sabotage and other covert operations against nations of eastern and central Europe was Dr. Lev Dobriansky, a Ukrainian expatriate and the father of the co-called «Captive Nations» movement… Today, Dobriansky’s heirs, including his daughter Paula Dobriansky, a Bush administration State Department official and ardent neo-conservative, are raising the bloody shirt for Western intervention in Ukraine and the Russian Federation…

Polish Authorities Use Neo-Nazism for Their Own Purposes
20.02.2014 | 00:00 | Vladislav GULEVICH
Polish Roman Catholic priest Isakovic-Zalesski is known for his unswerving stand against Ukrainian nationalists. According to him, the support of Euromaidan» by Polish authorities is the same thing as the friendship with the devil… According to Najwy?szy Czas, Poland has supported the most steadfast anti-Polish elements of Ukraine. It asks what would President Bronis?aw Komorowski do if some boxer staged a riot near the presidential administration building saying the country was ruled by anti-democratic forces that were inside? Would he leave it as it is?..

A Few Words on the Incomplete Sovereignty of Germany
19.02.2014 | 00:00 | Natalia MEDEN
…Any changes in Berlin’s foreign policy are jealously monitored by the U.S. The phrase «Germany has been a problem», uttered on the spur of the moment by the head of the Pentagon, speaks volumes. And the Germans, of course, understand how limited their possibilities are if a federal minister admits that «We in Germany have never been completely sovereign since May 8, 1945». Apparently, Germany’s «incomplete sovereignty» affects its relations with Russia. An article by American experts from the Stratfor center which characterizes Germany’s policy in Ukraine as cynical and excessively assertive stands out…
U.S. Sanctions against Iran and Iran’s Response
19.02.2014 | 00:00 | Valentin KATASONOV
Economic sanctions or the threat of economic sanctions are one of the main foreign policy tools of the West, especially the U.S. This tool is used to put pressure on other countries even more often than weapons or the threat of using weapons… Paradoxically, all of Washington’s sanctions against Iran have only succeeded in freeing this enormous oil-producing country from the snare of the petrodollar standard which appeared forty years ago. And today Iran is more likely to agree to shut down its nuclear program than to once again submit to the petrodollar dictates of Washington…
Western Imperialism’s Creative Destruction in Syria
18.02.2014 | 00:00 | Finian CUNNINGHAM
US-led Western regime change in Syria might be described as a process of creative destruction. Like Schumpeter’s economic concept of cyclical creative destruction, so too Washington’s political machinations in Syria seem to be playing out likewise. We begin with the premise that the humanitarian crisis in Syria over the past nearly three years is largely as a result of a Western covert proxy war inflicted on that country. The objective is to destabilize, terrorize and eventuate regime change in the Arab country…
Brussels’ Eastern Frontier: Pruth, Dnjepr, or Don?
18.02.2014 | 00:00 | Hannes HOFBAUER
…History does not repeat itself. What nevertheless seems to be a repetition is the functionalization of radical anti-Russian, right-wing movements for Western geopolitical and economic interests. Since the Ukrainian President Yanukovych refused to sign the so-called Association Agreement with the European Union on the Vilnius summit in November 2013, Brussels puts new pressure on Kyiv; and therefore uses old alliances. The exploitation of radical right-wing local elements for Western interests can also be seen in other cases in contemporary history. Just remember the breaking apart of Yugoslavia in the 1990s, when Berlin and Brussels – later with the help of Washington – dynamized inner conflicts to civil war and foreign intervention… The current Ukrainian scenario looks spooky similar. The West is well aware of using fascists, who would not be tolerated in his own sphere, to manage a regime-change in Kyiv…
Adding DCS to US Intelligence Effort – Slam Dunk Thing
17.02.2014 | 00:00 | Andrei AKULOV
John Bennet, senior ?ongressional reporter at Defense News, a well-known and widely respected expert, says in his brilliant piece Analysis: Defense Clandestine Service Is Here To Stay that the US Defense Clandestine Service (DCS) is a done deal… The plan fits in with the Obama administration’s affinity for espionage and covert action over conventional force. Evidently Washington is applying efforts to enhance intelligence efficiency in view of security failures, especially in the Middle East, North Africa, Pakistan and other places… As has become widely known thanks to Edward Snowden’s revelations, the NSA – another military agency under the jurisdiction of DOD – acts beyond the scrutiny of Congress and violates human rights, domestic and international law at home and abroad, so there is a big chance the military intelligence will do the same now…
Georgia’s NATO Membership: Dreams and Reality
16.02.2014 | 00:00 | Nikolai BOBKIN
…The United States needs Georgia not as a military ally but rather as a country providing important routes, including pipelines. For America Georgia is not a country with its own culture and established traditions but rather a transit zone and a rear bridgehead for a military action against Iran. And it is not accidental that the US provides much money for military airports in Vaziani, Marneuli and near the port of Batumi…
The Salvadorian Elections and Beijing’s Rise Star in Central America
16.02.2014 | 00:00 | Mahdi Darius NAZEMROAYA
The People’s Republic of China is an increasingly important player in Latin America. One important project that involves China is the creation of a mega canal connecting the Atlantic Ocean with the Pacific Ocean, like a second Panama Canal. This second Panama Canal, however, will be based in Nicaragua and called the Great Canal of Nicaragua…
