  1. Well done, RFK Jr.
  2. TIC (This Is China). China is always denying everything! Cambodia has long become an unofficial province of the PRC.
  3. As they say: nothing good happens after midnight, especially when 3 little girls are left walking alone at 1 a.m.
  4. Now, they are being deployed in the Caribbean! Probably, Russia has a huge military presence in Cuba.
  5. Probably, it was an integral part of the recent 19% tariff deal?
  6. Yes, very sad indeed. It reminds me of the US war in Iraq with so much "collateral damage".

  11. This 47 minute discussion with Professor Diesen was concentrated on the two interrelated issues in the headline. Europe is doomed because 25 of the 27 heads of government of the European Member States presently have no interest in the prosperity and wellbeing of their citizens and are interested only in holding on to power, for which purpose maintaining support for Ukraine in its war with Russia and rearming Europe in preparation for a NATO-Russia war in 2029 are their top priority. Europe’s capitulation to Trump over tariffs may be explained by the hope it would keep Trump on side over further aid to Ukraine. This, of course, is utterly delusional, since Trump has clearly shown he wants the USA to exit that war as soon as possible without any regard for Europe’s wishes. Regime change in Kiev is coming soon. Thanks to the scandal over a new law that stripped the anti-corruption agencies in Ukraine of their independence, Zelensky lost credibility both in the USA and in Europe. Major media now speak of him as authoritarian, meaning anti-democratic. The wave of protests in Kiev and other major Ukrainian cities was unprecedented in the three years of war and suggests to me the active intervention of one or another Western power to bring down Zelensky and achieve regime change. The question of the day: was it the Brits, who surely would like to install as president General Zaluzhny, former commander in chief of the Ukrainian armed forces, who has been serving as Ukrainian ambassador to the UK these past 18 months. Zaluzhny as president would mean continuation of the war under the direction of someone who actually understands military strategy as opposed to the PR driven direction of the armed forces from Zelensky. For their part, the Americans surely would favor as successor Zelensky Umerov, the current head of the Ukrainian negotiating team in talks with the Russians in Istanbul. Umerov is a civilian who made a fortune in high tech commerce and who has a clear connection to the USA going back to his secondary school year spent in America. Umerov, we may assume, could negotiate a peace with the Russians if he were his own man, not a subordinate to Zelensky as he is presently. ©Gilbert Doctorow, 2025 Interview with Professor Glenn Diesen: Europe is doomed, Regime change in Kiev
  12. Howard Lutnick and Donald Trump are concerned about tilapia and shrimps from Thailand being imported into United States at dumping price undermining local US farmers business.
  13. Yes, Thailand 19% This is not the worst case scenario. Of course, 15% would have been better. The China tariff remains at 55%, doesn't it? Will Cambodia become a transshipment hub for the Chinese goods to be shipped to the US? Maybe, Singapore is better for this purpose, with only 10% of Trump's tariff? It remains to bee seen!
