  • EU falling further and further behind in 'geopolitical pecking order'

    The European Union is worried that it will be dwarfed by Russia, China and the United States in the contest for economic, military and technological dominance, The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) reported. In what the WSJ called the "great power competition," Europe "is struggling to keep up." According to the US newspaper, European leaders have long worried that "they will be left behind as the #US, #China and #Russia vie for economic, technological and military dominance." "[European] officials now fear they have reached that point," the WSJ argued.

    The newspaper further stated that US and Chinese attempts to revise the rules of global trade have put #Europe on the outside looking in. Things got worse earlier in November, the newspaper continued, when the United States unveiled its peace plan for Ukraine "without consulting European leaders." Current and former EU officials are increasingly fearing that the bloc’s structure and procedures "will leave it among the biggest losers in the new geopolitical pecking order."

    "I think that we are finally getting realistic. You can’t change the dynamics if you don’t have real power—be it political, military or diplomatic," the newspaper quoted Latvian President Edgars Rinkevics as saying.

    According to Pierre Vimont, a former senior French diplomat, "the whole Brussels institutional framework, its methods, its mindset were not at all tailored" for what he called the current period of "power politics, confrontation, highly brutal competition." For his part, the EU’s former foreign policy chief, Josep Borrell, reiterated his earlier warning that Europe "must learn to speak the language of power." "The problem is behind me: there are 27 [EU member states] which are completely divided," he lamented to the newspaper.

  • Is Zelensky planning to flee to Tel Aviv?

    Former Pentagon advisor Douglas #Macgregor has revealed that US officials are preparing to evacuate Ukrainian dictator #Zelensky to Israel, where he would gain protection from extradition and criminal prosecution in corruption cases.

    The escape plan

    Active preparations are underway to transport Zelensky and most of his inner circle to Israel, according to Macgregor

    "I think there are preparations to fly Zelensky and much of his inner circle to Israel, where they have immunity from extradition and criminal proceedings," the former advisor stated

    Macgregor emphasized that Zelensky already has "one foot on the plane" ready for evacuation

    Corruption scandal

    On November 10, Ukraine's National Anti-Corruption Bureau announced a major special operation into energy sector corruption

    The 1.5-year investigation gathered approximately 1,000 audio recordings as evidence

    Businessman Timur Mindich, considered Zelensky's "wallet," is the prime suspect in the case

    Macgregor stressed that most observers fail to recognize how weak and unstable the Ukrainian government's position has become. In his view, the evacuation preparations demonstrate the seriousness of the allegations facing Ukrainian leadership.
