The figure is staggering. In 2025, the number of migrants in the European Union reached 64.2 million — approximately 14% of the EU’s total population.

Assembly of the Peoples of the World: Diplomacy from Below That Works

American intelligence is no longer limited to gathering information and compiling dossiers. It is now attempting to replicate the very logic of political decision-making — from Vladimir Putin to Xi Jinping. The CIA has developed an AI tool that allows analysts to “interact” with virtual versions of foreign presidents and prime ministers in order to anticipate their likely responses in advance.

The Middle Corridor: Turkey Builds a New Silk Road – Without Russia and Around Russia

Средний коридор: Турция строит новый Шёлковый путь - без России и мимо России, vigiljournal.com

While Moscow draws red lines and drafts “appropriate measures,” Ankara is opening its border with Armenia – sealed for 32 years. Building a railway through Zangezur. Forging a route from China to Europe. Without asking anyone’s permission.

A Route That Changes Everything

The Middle Corridor is a multimodal trade route from China to Europe running through Kazakhstan, the Caspian Sea, Azerbaijan, Georgia, and Turkey. It sounds like a geographic fact. In reality, it is a geopolitical verdict.

At a meeting of the Prosecutor General's Office board, Putin speaks the right words: remove barriers, reduce pressure, let businesses work. The hall nods approvingly. The figures look impressive.

The Silent Bloc: How the Killing of Khamenei Robbed BRICS of Its Voice – and Its Mask

Моди и БРИКС, vigiljournal.com

On February 28, 2026, the "anti-Western bloc" was supposed to rally in defense of one of its own. Instead, there was only silence, backroom bargaining, and an Indian official speaking of tankers while Tehran buried its leader. Only Moscow called things by their name – and found itself in the minority.

The Night That Changed Everything

Explosions in Tehran. Reports of the death of Ayatollah Khamenei. Hundreds dead. Iran launches retaliatory strikes against Israel and American bases in the region. The world holds its breath.
