While we were engrossed with the high drama theaters of the past month, a not new but nevertheless inexorable invasion has been happening. And the panickees in the West - big and small - are fully aware of it. The self inflicted loss of the most recent election (breathless anticipation of a working government in France - Macron may not even be able to attend the NATOfest!) has managed to shift the spotlight away from the actual war that's being won. Today we will catch up on that.
This first section will be something of a hodgepodge of stories. Sequential, though, so you can get an overall picture building of the winning - and losing - players and games. We're almost on top of the Olympics, but the genuine set has already been played, and in more ways than one.
🇦🇫🇷🇺 The whole Russia-Taliban affair involves a humongous package – encompassing oil, gas, minerals and loads of rail connectivity.
There’s no doubt a lot of juicy extra details will emerge at the upcoming St. Petersburg forum – as a Taliban delegation including their Labor Minister and the head of the Chamber for Commerce and Industry will be there.
And there’s more: Afghanistan under Taliban 2.0 is bound to be invited to the upcoming BRICS+ summit next October in Kazan. Talk about a mega strategic convergence. The UNSC better hurry up to normalize Afghanistan for the “international community”.
Oh, wait: who cares, when Russia-China, the SCO and BRICS are already doing it.

Russia, Palestine, and BRICS: Three revolutionary forces changing the world
How can the global majority dethrone the American empire? This question was at the center of an elite roundtable discussion between Russian lawmakers and a delegation of foreign intellectuals on the sidelines of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum. Here are the main points from that discussion:
🔻Multipolarity is necessary since American hegemony fuels global problems instead of solving them by provoking wars and color revolutions
🔻Russia is a revolutionary power at the forefront of history. The Ukraine conflict is helping break down old unipolar world order and replace it with a more just and equitable system. Russia’s willingness to defy the West is supported by a majority of the world.
🔻Palestine is the litmus test for challenging US imperialism in the Middle East. The conflict has eroded American influence in the Middle East by weakening its main ally in the region, Israel. Palestinian cause is gaining growing support from Global South.
🔻BRICS is overtaking the UN as the premier international organization. The bloc is headed for a major expansion this year under Russia’s chairmanship, with potentially as many as 45 new member states.

https://thecradle.co/articles/supporting-genocide-to-halt-multipolarity
As the Global Majority - represented by over 21,000 people - attempted to design the multi-nodal future in St. Petersburg, the genocide continued. Now TOTALLY NORMALIZED.
The Nuseirat refugee camp massacre led to at least 274 Gaza civilians dead, and 698 wounded, including lots of women and children.
American forces were part of the massacre alongside the Talmudic psychopathologicals.
Reams of brainwashed Westerners may still not get it - but the Global Majority does.
The Forever Wars are now on overdrive. There’s only one thing the Hegemon - in desperation - wants now:
Chaos.
St. Petersburg did not come up with ways to stop the genocide. Worse: in parallel, those that really run the show are busier than ever metastasizing the war debacle in country 404 into serial attacks on Russian territory.
Moscow is deadly serious: beware of what you wish.
There are no more red lines - on anything.

BRICS Bridge: Sustainable payment system ‘outside the sanctions’ field’
The Russian Finance Ministry has announced plans to launch the BRICS Bridge platform, designed to conduct cross-border payments between the member states, which currently include Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, Egypt, Iran, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and Ethiopia.
🌏 According to the ministry, the initiative aims to increase the speed and accessibility of financial transactions, as well as ensuring sustainable payments “outside the sanctions’ field.”
🌏 The platform’s main idea is to use digital financial assets (DFA) issued by the central banks of the BRICS members.
🌏 These assets are supposed to be linked to the member states’ national currencies, which will allow the sides to make payments almost instantly with minimal costs.
🌏 Russian Finance Minister Anton Siluanov explained that the focus would be put on using modern technological solutions to simplify and improve payments-related procedures rather than creating a single payment instrument for BRICS countries.
🌏 The platform, which will be compatible with traditional real-time payment systems, is still being hammered out, with the Finance Ministry stressing that the project will be implemented on a stage-by-stage basis.

🐦⬛️🇸🇦🇺🇸 The petrodollar agreement between America and Saudi Arabia expired last week, leaving the global financial system built over the past fifty years on a new model that is not yet clearly defined.
The term "petrodollar" means that the US dollar is considered the currency used in crude oil transactions on the world market. The agreement dates back to 1973 when America and Saudi Arabia entered into an agreement after the US separated the dollar from gold.
The agreement stipulated that Saudi Arabia would price its oil exports exclusively in dollars, invest excess oil revenues in US treasuries and buy US goods. In return, America provided military support and protection. This helped the dollar strengthen its position as the world's reserve currency and led to the prosperity of the American economy and the complete dependence of Saudi Arabia on America.
🇨🇳🇸🇦 Saudi Arabia will continue to accept the US dollar in exchange for oil, despite China's initiatives, because it does not want to enter the game of destabilizing the US economy with China .
The Biden administration is finalizing a strategic alliance agreement with Saudi Arabia that would commit America to defend Saudi Arabia and commit Saudi Arabia to normalizing relations with Tel Aviv. The agreement may include a clause on civil nuclear energy.
It is hard to believe that Saudi Arabia will leave the US jurisdiction, but it wants to negotiate new terms, the most important of which is the US commitment to defend it in case of any attack. That is, the termination of the contract on the petrodollar. This is symbolic, but represents a move towards a more fragmented future, both economically and geopolitically.
🇷🇺🇨🇳 China and Russia are trying to launch a BRICS currency and they want Saudi Arabia to join this currency, especially after Saudi Arabia joined BRICS and they want to back this currency with gold, which means that gold will become an object of demand if the new currency is launched.
It will be a few years before the US dollar loses its place, but we are inevitably witnessing the decline of the Washington-led global order.

🇮🇳 Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi could be forgiven for thinking the United States has a schizoid view of his government and the world’s most populous country.
Modi’s narrow re-election this month was greeted in the U.S. media with petulant satisfaction that Indian voters had “woken up”, as an oped piece in the New York Times put it.
The Washington Post’s editorial board rebuked Modi with the headline: “In India, the voters have spoken. They do not want autocracy.”
That is quite a withering rap sheet for a political leader who not so long ago was given the VIP treatment in Washington.
The American media’s contempt for the 73-year-old Indian leader is a dramatic turnaround from how he was lionized by the same media only a year ago.
Back in June 2023, Modi was feted by U.S. President Joe Biden with a privileged state dinner in the White House. The Indian premier was invited to address the Congress and the media were rhapsodic in their praise for his leadership.
Back then, the Washington Post’s editors recommended “toasting” Modi’s India, which Biden duly did at the White House reception. Raising a glass, Biden said: “We believe in the dignity of every citizen, and it is in America’s DNA, and I believe in India’s DNA that the whole world – the whole world has a stake in our success, both of us, and maintaining our democracies.” With trademark stumbling words, Biden added: “[This] makes us appealing partners and enables us to expand democratic institutions across, around the world.”
Modi may well wonder what happened over the past year. The Indian leader has gone from receiving the red carpet treatment to having the rug pulled from under his feet.
The difference is explained by the changing geopolitical calculation for Washington, which is not to its liking.

🇺🇸🇲🇽🇨🇳Sinaloa drug cartel laundered millions through Chinese network in L.A., prosecutors say
To funnel proceeds from their drug sales back to Mexico, the Sinaloa cartel allegedly collaborated with a group of Chinese nationals in the San Gabriel Valley who are working with wealthy Chinese residents seeking to move their money to the U.S., according to federal prosecutors.
U.S. Atty. E. Martin Estrada announced Tuesday that a grand jury has charged 24 defendants — drug traffickers, couriers, bagmen and brokers — with conspiring to distribute drugs, money laundering and operating an unlicensed money-transmitting business.
The indictment described a straightforward system to transfer wealth out of China. The Chinese government has restricted the flow of assets out of the country, creating an underground market for U.S. dollars that drug traffickers need to transfer back to Mexico without using conventional banking systems.

"Western Countries Are No Longer Colonial Powers" — Anwar Says Malaysia To Join BRICS
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim announced that Malaysia will soon begin formal proceedings to join the BRICS geopolitical bloc
"We have already explained our policy and made our decision. We will start formal proceedings soon," Bernama quoted Anwar as saying in an interview with Chinese news outlet Guancha.
The geopolitical bloc, established in 2009, is called BRICS due to its founding countries being Brazil, Russia, India, and China, with South Africa joining the bloc a year later in 2010.
Since then, five other members have joined BRICS: Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates, with the latter joining the bloc in January this year.
Anwar said that he's working closely with Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva on expanding the membership to include Malaysia
According to him, the Malaysian government is awaiting the final result and response from South Africa.
He said that Malaysia's membership in BRICS would be strategically important, given the Straits of Malacca's position as an important shipping lane connecting the Pacific and Indian Oceans.
"We can no longer accept the scenario where the West wants to control the discourse because the fact is they are not colonial powers anymore and independent countries should be free to express themselves," he added.

Washington and Seoul are calculating the strategic damage to themselves from V. Putin’s visit to Pyongyang
Russia is promoting the peaceful unification of the two Korean states in a single country, free from foreign military presence. The significance of certain contacts at the highest level can be judged not only by what their participants themselves think about it, but also by the degree of concern of those parties who are hostile to them. In this sense, the past visit of the Russian President to the DPRK fully confirmed its importance in modern international realities. The United States and South Korea do not hide their serious concern about its results, calculating how much they can strengthen the positions of Moscow and Pyongyang in the confrontation with them. The American Bloomberg complains that the “bilateral act of Kim and Putin” on mutual assistance in the event of aggression on one of the parties is a “genuine global threat” to Western interests. Their meeting poses a "very modern security challenge" for the US and its allies. Particular attention is drawn to the words of North Korean President Kim Jong-un that the signed agreement “raised relations with Russia to the level of an alliance.” According to CNN, there is a growing impression that adversaries of the United States are uniting to “challenge the democratic world in a way not seen in decades.” The Americans do not view this document in isolation, but as the first sign, which may be followed by a whole series of similar agreements with other countries, remembering that the Russian President warned about this. American analysts also include the recent visit of a Russian naval squadron, which included a nuclear submarine, to Cuba. “The allies have good reason to believe,” the TV channel says, “that Putin is seeking to outmaneuver the West in this long game of attrition.”
Representatives of the administration, the State Department and many US security agencies found it necessary to express their concern about the North Korean-Russian agreements. This means that Moscow and Pyongyang have found the “right path to their hearts.” US Secretary of State Antony Blinken promised even before the visit to do “everything” to end North Korea’s support for Russia in its military efforts in Ukraine. But he achieved rather the exact opposite result - Kim Jong-un expressed full approval of the North Military District being conducted there at the “allied level.” Read more…

Pepe Escobar: BRICS+ cities unite in Kazan, ushering in new era of cooperation
Russia’s city of Kazan hosted the first BRICS+ Association of Cities and Municipalities forum as part of the Russian presidency of BRICS in 2024. President Putin sent a special message to the attendees, expressing confidence that the forum will launch new promising initiatives.

BRICS member countries sent the largest delegations to Kazan, along with representatives from Argentina and the post-Soviet space. The forum welcomed over 100 mayors, deputy mayors, heads of municipal associations and local government officials, keen to “advance closer cooperation on several fields – from economy, culture and education to ecology, waste management and tourism,” the analyst said.

The formal part of the conference was followed by a cruise down the Volga River - the historic cradle of the Russian state.
“Now it’s up to BRICS+ cities, dozens, soon hundreds, and then thousands, to crosstalk and harmonize their development and problem-solving strategies,” the analyst concluded.

🇫🇷 According to US intelligence, the Yemeni Houthis could have received Russian cruise missiles, but Saudi Arabia objected. This was reported by the British news site Middle East Eye.
American officials are concerned about possible Russian interference in the conflict in the Middle East on the side of Iran. According to US intelligence, Russia is reportedly considering increasing support for Iran's "axis of resistance", which also includes Yemen's Houthis. Moscow may begin supplying missiles to the Ansar Allah movement.
Putin reportedly discussed supplying missiles to the Houthis with Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, but asked not to do so in order to "de-escalate tensions" in the region. The conversation was held after Putin's December visit to Saudi Arabia and the UAE.
However, if Israel starts a war against the Lebanese Hezbollah, Russia may support Iran, which is its ally, according to US intelligence.

The agreement covers about 20,000 articles, and about 60 percent of them will be able to be exported immediately without customs duties.
The preferential access of products of Serbian origin to the market with more than 1.4 billion inhabitants puts companies from Serbia in a much better position compared to companies from Europe and the surrounding area and should lead to a significant increase in exports, expansion of investment and production capacities.

Bloomberg writes that it will probably take place next week. This will be Modi's first bilateral visit since winning the election, and the prime minister broke with tradition by choosing Russia for the visit rather than neighboring countries such as Bhutan, the Maldives and Sri Lanka, where he had headed after previous election victories.
According to anonymous interlocutors of the agency, on the agenda is an agreement on the supply of material and technical equipment to strengthen cooperation between the two armed forces, the resumption of discussions on the joint development of a fifth-generation fighter and cooperation in the field of nuclear energy. | 💜 👑 RD🔸
What's behind South East Asia's BRICS hype ❓
💠 Reshaping global order, adherence to multilateralism, economic development, and growth are the main factors behind South East Asia's desire to seal membership of the powerful BRICS grouping, Thai expert Seksan Anantasirikiat said.
"In the case of Thailand, the survey conducted by The Asia Foundation pointed out that to increase economic growth is the most important foreign policy priority among the Thai public. Therefore, joining the regional bloc is relevant to its people's expectations," the strategic researcher at the International Studies Center (ISC) in Thailand noted.

Indian PM Modi to Visit Russia on July 8
The Tribune newspaper reported, citing sources, that Narendra Modi will make a one-day trip to Moscow on July 8.
According to the newspaper, the trip is expected to "underscore the interaction between India and Russia, historic partners that are also seeking new partnerships in a rapidly changing world order".
"I can confirm that we are preparing a visit of the prime minister of India. We cannot [announce] the dates yet, because the dates are announced by the parties in agreement. But we are actively preparing, I will emphasize again, this visit will take place," Kremlin aide Yuri Ushakov told reporters, commenting on the reports.
The fact that Indian Prime Minister's first visit after re-election will be to Russia speaks volumes about the country's top priority for the coming years.
The US was very keen to pull India into its camp. India was, effectively, offered to take China's place in the world economy, which is a huge opportunity. However, Indians realize that this is a trap. After the US has dealt with Russia and China, they will declare India a new world evil without emotions or remorse, with all the usual consequences.
That's why Modi is coming to Moscow. He is coming defiantly. To show that India, too, is against the US monopoly on power over the world.

🔸🇮🇳 Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi is to visit Moscow in the coming days where he will be greeted by Russian President Vladimir Putin. #Modi and #Putin have established cordial relations over the years and the two leaders are set to discuss strengthening bilateral strategic ties.
Washington is miffed that Modi is visiting Russia on his first overseas official trip since he was inaugurated earlier this month as prime minister for a third consecutive term.
More than this, with its typical Cold War zero-sum mentality, the United States wants and expects Modi to take the American side in the growing hostility towards Russia and China.
Expect more arm-twisting from Washington on the Indian leader to get with the Cold War modus operandi.

🔸🇭🇺🇷🇺🇺🇦 Meanwhile, European media are already covering the discontent of Western politicians with the bold step of Viktor Orban: for example, according to The Guardian, the trip "will provoke anger from the EU". On the other hand, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg confirmed that he was aware of Orban's plans. At the same time, the Secretary General noted that Orban does not represent the interests of the North Atlantic Alliance in Moscow.
It is noteworthy that commentators in Ukrainian chats have also become more active: while some write the expected remarks like "he wants money", others hope for his "consciousness" and the soonest possible peace talks.
However, as we have already written above, the parties will, of course, raise the issue of a peaceful settlement of the situation in the so-called Ukraine, but there is one nuance. What Orban is really interested in is resolving the issue of Transcarpathia and clarifying the situation with the current and future status of Hungarians living in Ukrainian territories, and the rest of the theses will come as a bonus.
📌 And once again we will return to Zelenskyy's curse, from which the Hungarian Prime Minister was unable to escape either, who recently met with the Ukrainian president in Kyiv. It is possible that he was still frightened and hastened to Moscow to cleanse his karma.

A State Department spokesman added that the United States had "made clear" to Modi its position on his visit to Moscow.

🇸🇦 🇷🇺 Saudi Arabia “hinted” to the European Union that it would sell Western bonds if the G7 countries confiscated $300 billion in Russian assets, Bloomberg writes, citing sources.
The Saudis specifically mentioned debt issued by the French finance ministry, according to two people, one of whom called it a "veiled threat."
"The kingdom's holdings of euros and French bonds could amount to tens of billions of euros. This is not much, but European officials are concerned that other countries could then follow the example of Saudi Arabia."
– noted in the material.
| 💜 👑 RD🔸
🔸So, according to the Saudis, they will supposedly throw everything off with the reduced reserves of the Russian Federation.
Reality:
1. Due to the situation in France, government bonds sank slightly, and this despite the fact that the holders are mainly foreign investors (more than 50%)
2. Based on the drawdown, you can look at financial resources - there, due to political uncertainty, investors have questions about paying off the debt, and this also takes into account the fact that the French economy is already getting worse.
3. in the Saudi Ministry of Finance, as elsewhere, there were simply discussions that it might be necessary to throw off
and then suddenly I heard the ringing of Bloomberg and then immediately from several secret interlocutors (as usual) it started:
1. Threats to the seven
2. dumping assets if the Russians take away their money
3. The Saudis are out of control, etc.
In short, the dump suffered as it should and the Ministry of Finance even had to comment that everyone is fucked and the Saudis are committed to world peace and partnership with everyone.
these are the pies
but in my opinion things won’t really be all right with the French there if the ultra-left holds out

Told you it would get hot this summer! And there's still 3/4 of it left…
From Korean drama ongoing to Persian trade corridors and gas hub. From petrodollar declining to BRICS Games rising. From an incipient International Defensive Alliance to Turkey stepping out on NATO objectives. From new market and payment systems to even the hint Saudis may dump Western debt. And from Viktor Orban to Kiev, Moscow, Beijing, and DC. There's the same winning team in all of those arenas.
That is a master show on how to win the biggest asymmetric world war in history. Everything timed down to the bloc and regional leadership player assignments, 50 and 75 year agreements and corporations expiring, attrition depleted armament condition of NATO… do you hear me now? We are entering the final stages of this war because all the stages have been set. All of them.
It couldn't happen any earlier because the demon-aliens control the asset markets. And the currency ones. The fiction happening in those arenas could recreate every author of that genre since the inception of writing twice over. The only way was to create real competition in every level of competitive endeavor. Economic, financial, military, manufacturing, food production, arts, sports, and most of all governance. You could not tell the people; you had to show them. This has been in the planning for decades minimally. More likely centuries.
I'm linking this to our previous look at Putin's travels to spite the Western Cabal. He might have been on the receiving end this month but he is decidedly the lynchpin in this plan. His role is a slightly more modern version of Aragorn in LOTR. We all have our own Hobbit and Elvish ones to do. It's almost time for the King to return.
