We will be taking a break from Telegram starting tomorrow until the week commencing 2nd January unless there is a huge development, which can't be ruled out.

Ukraine is having problems stabilising the voltage in Kiev. This could potentially have serious consequences if it persists.

Also Russia will sign a decree on retaliatory measures wrt to oil price cap imposed on Moscow early next week.

Kremlin has stated that there is no chance of peace with Kiev after Zelensky's visit to Washington.

This may have just accelerated the implementation of what Medvedev clearly discussed with Xi.

Western govts, intelligence agencies, ancilliary institutes, think tanks etc believe that US hegemony is here to stay or for at least next few decades. They are all asleep at wheel as the paradigm shift is now in overdrive. As ever it is an event driven scenario, not time driven.

The absurdity of the US can be summed up by theSenate pretending to debate and then passing a 1000+ page bill they have clearly never read for $1.7tn government financing which will be paid for by money printing.

Have no issue with anyone condemning Russian missile strikes on Ukrainian infrastructure, provided they also condemn the ongoing shelling of civilians in Donetsk by Ukrainian forces.

West hasn't grasped very simple premise that if Russia cuts oil production due to oil price cap they will not incur losses in revenue because price of oil will rise. West correspondingly pays more.

Their inability to understand supply, demand and basic maths is farcical.

Patriot missile systems will not be shipped for months because Ukrainian forces need training on how to deploy them.

Not withstanding they are useless, does Ukraine have the capability to wait months?

Time to sign off until 2023.

Have a wonderful holiday / Christmas and New Year with family and friends.

Thanks for all your support.

Best wishes from us both.

Happy New Year.

2023 will continue the ongoing theme of 2022 where illusion will give way to reality.

West still largely has no idea what's coming even though there are a few of us who have very accurately laid it out for many years.

As ever it's event driven, not time driven.

We are now in a window of our 100s of years of turbulent history whereby we in the west must break the glass ceiling and assume responsibility via the necessary maturity. The empire is collapsing very rapidly and there will be a huge void that will need to be filled.

2023 is likely to be the year when the alt media will suffer huge reputational damage as the entertainers will expose themselves for what they truly are, namely total charlatans.

Clown show continues:

Two UK nuclear power plants in the UK are at the risk of being closed due to the windfall tax approved by the UK govt last year.

As we have been saying in recent months, quietly the ongoing resolution of the Syrian conflict is happening. It is not yet a given but progress is being made. We trust this will continue. At some point the illegal occupation of US forces will also be addressed.

There are claims Julian Assange could be released within a matter of months.

Hopefully ongoing constructive diplomatic efforts to secure his release will bear fruit.

Russia continues to show after 8 months of constant western reports that it has run out of missiles, that this is nonsense, by undertaking heavy strikes for now 5 successive nights in the Kharkov, Donetsk, Poltava, Dnepropetrovsk, Nikolaev, Kiev and Kherson regions.

Have had many people getting in touch about Zoltan's recent comments about BRICS, China and Russia etc. He is tellingly describing to a large extent precisely things we have been discussing for yrs. West largely remains arrogantly and ignorantly oblivious to what's unfolding.

Another example of the new reality:

Maduro:

Venezuela used to import 85% of all food consumed. Today, we produce 94% of all food consumed.

The economic and financial benefits are self-explanatory.

Setting aside the weaponisation of the dollar which is leading to its decline in usage, the very notion of a WRC is now becoming obsolete. There are other faster and cheaper payment alternatives. As much as anything, technologically, the dollar as a WRC is becoming irrelevant.
