Russian-American talks have ended The “historic” meeting between Lavrov and Rubio in the Philippines lasted only 35 minutes. It’s impossible to discuss anything truly serious in that amount of time. One can assume that Lavrov, as usual, started repeating the same talking points about “denazification” and “demilitarization” of Ukraine — and Rubio simply got tired of hearing it for the hundredth time.

How do we know? The Russian government is denying that a new mobilization is planned.

Following the Houthi blockade of the Bab el Mandeb, while the region faces growing disruption, China appears to be calmly maintaining access to its energy supplies through the Strait of Hormuz, while its commercial vessels continue transiting the Red Sea without facing significant interference. Why? China identified the world’s key strategic chokepoints years ago and began establishing military and logistical footholds near them long before today’s crises emerged. At present, two Chinese commercial vessels are reportedly loading oil at Yanbu and continuing their journey through the R RT by @mikenov: RT by @mikenov: 🇺🇦 Ukraine’s drone revolution has started a war inside its own military. The latest leadership crisis in Kyiv has exposed a much bigger debate than a cabinet reshuffle. At its core is a fight between 2 visions of warfare: the Soviet-era model built around artillery, hierarchy and attrition, and a younger generation that believes drones, rapid innovation and lower troop losses will decide the future of war. That divide is embodied by former Defense Minister Mykhailo Fedorov. At 35, he became the face of Ukraine’s drone revolution, redirecting funding toward domestic drone production, reforming military procurement and pushing technology over traditional firep RT by @mikenov: RT by @mikenov: 🚨Update: This is a bunker buster bomb so heavy it can only be carried by a heavy bomber, and it exists for one job: to reach the things enemies bury deepest. It’s the GBU-57, America’s 13.6-tonne bunker-buster! The GBU-57 weighs about 30,000 pounds and stretches over 20 feet, but most of that is not explosive. It is a long, dense, hardened-steel spike designed to punch through many metres of rock and reinforced concrete before it does anything at all. Only then does a delayed fuze trigger the charge buried in its tail, so the blast goes off deep underground rather than on the surface.

Trump switched from the Qatari donated Boeing 747-8 to the legacy Air Force One during the NATO summit after the Secret Service received what officials deemed a credible threat that Iranian proxy forces were targeting the president and whatever aircraft he was traveling aboard. The Qatari donated 747-8 is currently serving as the VC-25B “Bridge” aircraft, a temporary presidential transport intended to fill the gap until Boeing delivers the long delayed next generation VC-25B fleet.

Despite the weakening of Russia’s positions in Armenia, Kazakhstan and Syria, Moscow hopes to wait out the West. There are still many countries that support or remain neutral towards Russia. The Kremlin believes that the outcome of the war in Ukraine will determine the country’s international reputation and therefore will continue hostilities regardless of the costs and actions of the West.

Under enormous pressure (54–100 atmospheres), they carry thousands of cubic meters of natural gas every hour. If anything were to happen there, 57% of Russia’s electricity generation could disappear. The consequences for Russia’s domestic infrastructure would be catastrophic. This single hub handles 85% of all the natural gas produced in Russia.

Lavrov and Rubio had nothing much to talk about in Manila, in this context.

In June, Indian ports received more than 2.3 million barrels of Russian oil per day. Reuters estimates the figure even higher, at 2.64 million barrels per day—roughly half of India’s total oil imports for the month. Russian crude has increasingly replaced supplies from the Middle East, which have been disrupted by the conflict with Iran and shipping constraints in the Strait of Hormuz.
