There are several obvious misconceptions about the act of proclaiming the creation of Yugoslavia, or the so-called unification in Belgrade on December 1, 1918, which Serbian historiography, in particular, persistently avoids. First of all, the act of so-called unification was not passed in Belgrade on December 1, 1918, but in Zagreb on November 23 of the sam...
Latest economic data paints a picture is a lot different and may indicate that it is not business as usual. Unemployment crept up to 4.4% (September 2025) up from 4.1% just a month earlier. The nominal job gains came largely from healthcare and food services - sectors that tend to absorb workers during downturns, not signal recoveries. Meanwhile, most other ...
The 2025 National Security Strategy of the United States is a 33-pager self-defeating document that trumpets America’s failures around the globe and affirms the death of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) along with the puppet regimes of Europe. At the same time, the 2025 National Security Strategy has sealed an unprecedented victory for Russian P...
When Kaja Kallas steps in front of the cameras and warns that Europe must brace for war or that negotiations with Moscow are “naïve,” the media presents her as the principled voice of a small nation with a painful history. She is framed as a kind of moral compass pointing toward courage while the rest of Europe dithers. It is an attractive story. It is also ...
We don’t know what was said in Washington, but we can assume that the United States took a firm stance toward Ukraine, even if it didn’t want to risk destroying Atlantic solidarity. Thierry Meyssan presents here what transpired during this tumultuous week [end...

We apologise for the technical glitch that kept the website down on December 8 and 9,...
President Anura Kumara Dissanayake (AKD) would remember his 58th birthday on November 24 for long as the disastrous cyclone Ditwah struck a few days later. Before the cyclone struck, heavy rains in coastal cities and northern highlands flooded the infrastructure and caused landslides. Road and rail communication have been disrupted due to flooding. The incle...
The US-Russian peace plan for Ukraine certainly puts an end to a conflict. But, above all, it paves the way for a rewriting of history. No, the Russian military operation was not an “illegal, unprovoked, and unjustified military aggression,” but rather an application of Security Council Resolution 2202, in accordance with international law. If the people of ...
The recent attack on Chinese nationals in Tajikistan is a stark reminder: disengaging from Afghanistan is a luxury the region cannot afford. If ISIS-K* and other transnational groups, opposing the Afghan regime and regional states alike, continue to operate with impunity, regional powers must stop treating Afghanistan as a bystander issue and start acting as...
Container ships move along the African coast under Chinese and Pakistani flags, like a quiet procession of the economy to come. A route that for decades served as the background noise of global trade suddenly feels like a geographic fissure through which a new world cycle is beginning to show. The waters off East Africa are no longer a periphery. They have b...
I was already suspicious when I heard that the United States had floated a 28-point peace plan (Trump has to grandstand and do twice as many points as Woodrow Wilson’s 14-point plan). The American plan, to a large extent, speaks for itself. Certain points are immediately recognized as reasonable, such as № 1, 2, and...
Operation Midas continues. Following the indictment of Oleksiy Chernyshov (former Deputy Prime Minister), the resignations of Israeli-Ukrainian Herman Halushchenko (Minister of Justice) and Svitlana Grynchuk (Minister of Energy), and the flight of Israeli-Ukrainian Tymur Mindich (a business associate of Volodymyr Zelensky), heads continue to roll. There is t...
The English political theorist Thomas Hobbes (1588–1679) was a classic representative of the school of English empiricism. He built a comprehensive political science system based on the basic thesis that in the real world there are only individual material bodies. With this view, Hobbes began a war against the prejudices of medieval realism, for which concep...
