Russian Foreign Minister – “If Ukraine Joins NATO Eeither Ukraine Disappears, Or NATO Does.”

Important quotes from the BRICS Summit where the other ‘new world order’ is shaping against Western hegemony.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov at the BRICS summit in Kazan, Russia declared that if Ukraine joins NATO, Russia would destroy Ukraine as a nation, or even NATO itself.

President Putin also said he hoped NATO heard his warning about the consequences of allowing Ukraine to use Western-supplied missiles to strike inside Russia.

Russian President Putin warned failure to recognize a state of Palestine will fuel “permanent crisis and inevitable large-scale violence.”

China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs declared, “Taiwan is an inalienable part of China’s territory. The Taiwan question is not about freedom of navigation but about China’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.”

‘Secret’ Clause of Zelensky’s ‘Victory Plan’ – Join NATO Through Nuclear Blackmail

For the last several weeks, the Kiev regime frontman Volodymyr Zelensky has been pitching the much-touted “victory plan” to his overlords in the political West. It didn’t impress them, to put it mildly. Despite this, on October 16, he finally decided to go public with it, revealing the main points in an address to the Verkhovna Rada (Parliament). The document contains five publicly available points and three additional “secret” ones, allegedly “shared only with certain partners”, as CNN reports. Zelensky stated this “would be a bridge toward future peace talks with Russia”. However, among the main points of the “victory plan” is more of the same – NATO membership. CNN claims it also outlines “provisions to strengthen Ukraine’s defense and implement a non-nuclear strategic deterrence package”.

However, already the next day, CNN’s claim was denied by none other than Zelensky himself. Namely, he stated, in no uncertain terms, that if the Neo-Nazi junta isn’t allowed to join NATO, its “only option” will be to acquire nuclear weapons. So much for a “non-nuclear strategic deterrence package”. To make matters worse, he said this during a press conference following his speech in Brussels. He also made a false claim that “Ukraine was the only one who gave up its nuclear weapons” and that “this is why it’s fighting today”. However, this is patently false. Only one country dismantled its own nuclear arsenal completely and that was South Africa (officially in 1994). At around that time, Ukraine, Belarus and Kazakhstan signed an agreement on the transfer of Soviet thermonuclear weapons back to Russia, the sole successor state of the USSR.

NATO Disgraces Itself in Azerbaijan

Two years ago this October, Azerbaijan committed what had been, until the Israeli rampage of the past year, among the most egregious cases of ethic cleaning since the Yugoslav wars of the 1990s, when in the matter of days its armed forces took control of the Armenian enclave Nagorno Karabakh in which 120,000 Christian Armenians were forced to flee the land which had been their home for centuries. 

In the months that followed, Azerbaijan’s dictator, Ilham Aliyev, claimed that “present-day Armenia is our land.” An agreement reached between Armenia’s U.S.-backed Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and Aliyev ceded four Armenian villages to Azerbaijan the following April.

Fast forward to the last week of September, when the U.S. ambassador to Armenia, Kristina Kvien, attended a memorial service the Armenians who died fighting Azerbaijan. To mark the occasion, the U.S. embassy issued a statement that read, in part, that “the United States is committed to working with the Armenian government to assist those who have lost their homes and livelihood.”

Yet such sentiments are difficult to take seriously when roughly a week later NATO sent a high-level delegation to Baku to kiss Aliyev’s ring.  According the contemporaneous reporting from Sergei Melkonian, a Research Fellow at the Applied Policy Research Institute of Armenia, “In just four days of October this year, Azerbaijan held two high-level meetings with NATO representatives,” including meetings between the chief of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Azerbaijan, Karim Valiyev, and the director general of the NATO International Military Staff, Lieutenant General Janusz Adamczak, in which they discussed, according to a statement released by NATO, “a new framework for cooperation with Azerbaijan with a special focus on defense education, interoperability, resilience and defense capacity building.” That a Pole like Adamczak finds himself, on behalf of an American-led alliance, supporting Islamist aggression against a Christian nation shows just how deep the rot goes in the West.

NATO – US, UK and Germany – about to authorise direct strikes on Russia cities and military bases – North Korea to send a few hundred thousand troops to fight with Russia in Ukraine?

Selensky is about to return from delivering his “victory plan” to BATO leaders – seeking authorisation to use long-range missiles – controlled by NATO from targeting to launch – that can strike deep into Russia.

This will, presumably, provoke a direct response by Russia to return fire on military bases and cities in the US, UK ad Germany – plus other NATO countries.

Russia and China are engaged in anti-submarine ad is well prepared to invade Taiwan with other naval exercises around the whole of Taiwan.

The UK is active threatening European countries like Georgia to become more belligerent.

NATO’s NEXT Move Puts EVERYBODY In Danger

Russia President Vladimir Putin has issued a very unusual, late-night statement:

At approximately 3:30 AM Moscow, Russia time, the Russian President said: 

“The world is facing a fatal and irreversible turning point!” 

Nothing else was said and no explanation was offered.

UPDATE 10:50 AM EDT (SATURDAY)

It is now confirmed that President Putin was referring to the now-taking-place meeting of NATO countries, at NATO headquarters in Brussels.

At the now-taking-place meeting, a decision is expected to be taken GRANTING Ukraine the permission to use West-supplied, long-range missiles, to strike deep into Russia.

For months, Russia has warned against this, because taking this step will make NATO countries “Combatant participants” in the Ukraine conflict.

All of those West-supplied missiles REQUIRE active satellite guidance to reach their target.  Ukraine doesn’t have satellites; it would have to use U.S./NATO satellites.  Therein lies the explicit participation of NATO.   Actively guiding Ukraine-fired missiles into Russia makes the U.S. and NATO active, direct, participants in the conflict.

He pointed to a meeting of NATO which would allow Ukraine to fire missiles (with everything controlled by US/NATO TODAY.

“New Marching Orders From NATO”: Checking In On France’s Military Build-Up On The Eastern Flank 

France has embarked on a quiet force build-up and expansion of its troops and military presence in NATO’s ‘eastern flank’ country of Romania. It plans to send thousands more French troops to the country which shares a large border with Ukraine for major military drills planned next year.

“We used to play war,” French General Bertrand Toujouse was quoted in Politico as saying. “Now there’s a designated enemy, and we train with people with whom we’d actually go to war.”

Politico has further cited French army leadership as saying it has “new marching orders from NATO,” and that ultimately the plan is that by 2027 it “should be able to deploy a war-ready division in 30 days.” 

Within the next iteration of upcoming NATO drills in Romania, France will test “its ability to deploy a brigade, typically 3,000 to 5,000 soldiers, within a 10-day window.”

Over the past two plus years, and ever since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in Feb.2022, France has led the way in providing soldiers for a NATO battle group stationed in Romania, including at least 800 French troops and climbing.

This build-up is happening in the face of constant Kremlin warnings about the expansion of NATO’s military infrastructure right up to Russia’s doorstep, a historic grievance which spans back to the 1990s and to the early 2000s. Russia has even recently changed and lowered its threshold for using nuclear weapons.

It must be recalled that in Sept. 2023 testimony to the European Union Parliament, then NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg (recently retired) admitted that it was the constant US-led push to expand NATO eastward that remains Moscow’s key rationale for invading Ukraine.

Stoltenberg’s revealing words are recounted as follows:

“The background was that President Putin declared in the autumn of 2021, and actually sent a draft treaty that they wanted NATO to sign, to promise no more NATO enlargement. That was what he sent us. And was a pre-condition to not invade Ukraine. Of course, we didn’t sign that.

The opposite happened. He wanted us to sign that promise, never to enlarge NATO. He wanted us to remove our military infrastructure in all Allies that have joined NATO since 1997, meaning half of NATO, all the Central and Eastern Europe, we should remove NATO from that part of our Alliance, introducing some kind of B, or second-class membership. We rejected that.

So, he went to war to prevent NATO, more NATO, close to his borders. He has got the exact opposite.

NATO Plans to Create Extra 49 Brigades With About 5,000 Soldiers in Each – Reports

NATO is planning to create an extra 49 combat-ready brigades with about 5,000 servicepeople in each that would bring a total number to 131 units, German broadcaster on Saturday, citing the alliance’s unpublished documents.

The number of combat corps should be expanded from six to 15, and division headquarters from 24 to 38 to manage and support the extra brigades, the Minimum Capability Requirements, presented by NATO Supreme Allied Commander Europe Gen. Christopher Cavoli and French Adm. Pierre Vandier, read, as cited by the broadcaster.

The alliance is also planning to boost the capabilities of ground anti-aircraft units five-fold to 1,467, the report said.

Media Urge Expansion of Ukraine War—Nuclear Risk Be Damned

Ukraine has for months been asking the Biden administration for permission to use long-range US, British and French weapons to strike deeper in Russian territory, which would be a clear escalation in the war. Meanwhile, Russian President Vladimir Putin warned that the move would cross a red line for him, and recently announced that he was loosening Russia’s nuclear doctrine for using nuclear weapons.

Despite the risks of such escalation—and a lack of evidence that it would shift the war in Ukraine’s favor—Biden’s public reluctance to loosen his limits has been met in the war-hungry media primarily with derision.

The US, Britain and France have all supplied Ukraine with long-range missiles, including Army Tactical Missile Systems (ATACMS). But Biden has thus far limited their use to border areas. Britain and France are following Biden’s lead on range limitations.

Last month, in response to further advances by Russia into Ukraine, Ukraine launched a surprise invasion into Russian territory in Kursk. Since then, as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has pressed the US for more and longer-range missiles, Putin has increasingly raised the specter of nuclear retaliation.

Under its 2020 nuclear doctrine, Russia could respond with nuclear strikes to nuclear or conventional attacks it deemed a “threat to its existence,” if they came from a nuclear power. His new doctrine lowers the bar, so that a “critical attack” on Russia carried out with the “participation or support of a nuclear power” would be grounds for launching a nuclear response—including against the supporting power.

In other words, if Ukraine used long-range missiles supplied by a NATO power to launch an attack on Russia that it deemed “critical,” Putin could respond with a nuclear strike, against either Ukraine or against that NATO country.

NATO developing plans for MASS CASUALTIES in WWIII conflict with Russia

Lieutenant-General Alexander Sollfrank, the head of NATO’s logistics command, confirmed this week that the Western-led security bloc is developing new mass evacuation and rescue plans in preparation for a future war with Russia.

NATO is working, according to Sollfrank, to expand its operational capacity for extracting large numbers of wounded troops from the front lines. The apparent plan is for another world war that results in large numbers of casualties, and NATO recognizes that it will face heavy battlefield losses against Russia.

Russia’s air force has vaunted rockets and missile stockpiles that will make it too risky for medical evacuations via aircraft. This means NATO troops will need to operate “hospital trains” instead to extract large numbers of wounded soldiers off the battlefield.

“The challenge will be to swiftly ensure high-quality care for, in the worst case, a great number of wounded,” Sollfrank said.

The German military, in which Sollfrank is a general, recently announced that it expects Russia will have the capacity to attack a NATO country as soon as 2029. This means there is still time for NATO to build up its defenses against such an attack.

NATO takes the plunge into the world of venture capital

The NATO Innovation Fund, the “world’s first multi-sovereign venture capital fund,” made its first investments earlier this summer in deep tech companies including British aerospace manufacturing company Space Forge and AI companies ARX Robotics and Fractile.

Modeled like the U.S. intelligence community’s venture capital arm IQT (In-Q-Tel), the fund’s intention is to focus on spurring innovation in areas including biotechnology, AI, space tech, and advanced communications.

As NATO Innovation Fund Board Chairs Klaus Hommels and Fiona Murray described the project’s purview in Fortune in July: “By investing in and adopting emerging dual-use technologies, NATO can leverage the private sector’s innovation power and its transatlantic talent pool, while countering our strategic competitors’ influence and ambitions.”
