From the Telegram channel of Dmitry Medvedev....

"What else is there? Yes, of course, the departure of luxury segment sellers from our country. What to do now without the opportunity to buy bags and fur coats for several million rubles? This is an irreparable loss.
....
The world is waking up, and confidence in reserve currencies is fading like morning mist. Abandoning the dollar and the euro as the world's main reserves does not look like such a fantastic prospect. What kind of reserves are these if the obligations on them are frozen and actually defaulted by the will of insane politicians who are ready to bring their taxpayers' money to the altar of an unknown victory in the war "to the last Ukrainian"? Who needs them in this case? They do not even want to take them as payment for contracts for fuel supplies. The era of regional currencies is coming.
No matter how much anyone would like, they will have to negotiate a new financial world order. And then the decisive word will be for those countries that have a strong and advanced economy, healthy public finances, and a reliable monetary system. And by no means for those who endlessly increase their public debt, issuing into circulation new and new pieces of paper, not backed by national wealth, fictitious obligations for which the decrepit authorities can refuse to pay at any moment."

Highly recommend this interview by Daniel Davis with Jeremy Scahill, on the latest developments in Trump's evolving clusterf*** in Iran.

On another show I saw recently, Col. MacGregor said he thought Scahill was doing invaluable work in tracking events. Based on this interview, I agree.

AFRICA STORIES: AREAS OF NORTHERN MALI HELD BY THE MILITARY JUNTA IS LIKELY TO BE LOST.

I dislike writing about events as they are unfolding, especially when they are unfolding at breakneck speed. As I said yesterday, the military junta of Mali has never had full control of its territory, especially in the North. But the military junta did have control of some cities and towns in Northern Mali, some of which Russian fighters had captured after braving sandstorms to fight the Tuareg separatists and outright jihadi terrorists.

The mainstream media and France-aligned commentators have been gloating, claiming that the whole shit show happening in Mali can be attributed to the removal of "superior" French troops and their replacement with "inferior" Russian mercenaries (who eventually transformed into Russian government paramilitaries).

On the opposite end, we have the "anti-imperialist" alternative media and Russia-aligned commentators claiming that the loose rebel alliance is actually some kind of French intelligence-backed ...
