On May 12th, Russia’s RT bannered “Finland’s NATO membership will trigger response – Moscow”, and reported that Moscow has warned that Finland joining NATO would pose a direct threat to Russia’s security and its acceptance to the military alliance would prompt Russia to develop measures to ensure its safety.

A More Effective Russian Strategy Against Further Enlargement Of NATO
Russia’s first strategy against further enlargement of NATO was to demand, on 15 December 2021, to the U.S. Government; and, two days later, to America’s main anti-Russian military alliance, NATO; that NATO would never add any new member-nations — especially not Ukraine. This demand was firmly rejected, on 7 January […]
AUKUS In The Hypersonic Missile Wonderland
If further clues were needed as to why AUKUS, the security pact comprising the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia, was created, the latest announcement on weapons would have given the game away. Australia, just as it became real estate to park British nuclear weapons experiments, is now looking […]
The West Is Afraid Fortunately For It And All Mankind
Fear and courage. A fearful man and a fearless fighter. People who have seen too many Hollywood movies and read too much romance literature strongly sympathize with the latter, glorifying them in every possible way. Moreover, they heroize them not only in books, but also in real life: fearless leaders […]
Just How Credible Was Ukraine’s Nuclear Threat To Russia Prior To The Conflict?
Knowing now that all of this was going on behind the scenes in the run-up to President Putin’s fateful 24 February announcement, the public should hopefully have a better idea of how international diplomacy really works. The world isn’t always privy to what’s secretly happening at the highest levels of […]
Russia’s Special Operation In Ukraine Will Restore Global Strategic Stability
Had Russia submitted to the US’ attempted nuclear blackmail, Washington would have immediately set its sights on China, after which it would have restored its declining unipolar hegemony over the planet if it subsequently succeeded in strategically neutralizing that country too. The author warned earlier this week that “Kiev Must […]
Nato’s Space Strategy
On 17 January, NATO released its space policy. The document states: “Potential adversaries are increasing their own use of space, thereby extending their ability to project power over greater distances, with increased precision, speed and effectiveness. They are also using space capabilities to track NATO and Allies’ forces, exercises, and […]
Nuclear War Over Ukraine?
How many American soldiers will die in the battle for Luhansk? Or Kerch? Not 1 in 1,000 Americans could find these drab Ukrainian (formerly Russian) industrial cities on a map. How many Americans are aware that a unit of the Florida National Guard is stationed in western Ukraine, of all […]
The Dangerous Ignorance Of Germany’s New Foreign Minister
Germany’s new Foreign Minister, Annalena Baerbock came into office on December 8th without her knowing that America’s stationing missiles in Ukraine on Russia’s border, and only a 7-minute flying distance away from Moscow, would be even more unacceptable to Moscow than, in 1962, would have been, to Washington, the Soviet […]
Hypersonic Panic And Competitive Terror
During his eventful time in office, US President Donald Trump took much delight in reflecting about the lethal toys of his country’s military, actual or hypothetical. These included a hypersonic capability which, his military advisors had warned, was being mastered by adversaries. Such devices, comprising hypersonic cruise missiles and hypersonic […]
Nuclear White Elephants: Australia’s New Submarine Deal
It does not get any messier or more chaotic than this. Since 2009, when Australia’s Future Submarine Program (FSP) known as Project SEA 1000, began to take shape, strategists and policy makers have been keen to pursue the next big White Elephant of defence spending. And few areas of an […]
US Deterrence And The Weaponisation Of Space
From 21 to 26 August, the 36th Space Symposium was held in Colorado Springs, US, which showed a clear trend on the part of Washington to militarise space. For almost a week, senators, high-ranking military officials, scientists, representatives of the country’s military and industrial complex, and foreign guests discussed various […]
