Welcome!  Year of the Red (Fire) Horse

🔹🔹🔹🔹

Russia is ready to discuss placing Ukraine under temporary UN control to oversee elections and bring to power a legitimate government with which a comprehensive peace treaty could be signed, says Deputy FM Mikhail Galuzin.  President Putin first publicly floated this idea in March 2025.

Medvedev makes a clip:

⚡️Main issues reported by Chief of the Russian Armed Forces General Staff, First Deputy Defence Minister, General of the Army Valery Gerasimov:

▫️ The offensive is taking place in all directions.

▪️ The Armed Forces of Ukraine are suffering significant losses, which cannot be replenished, and in conditions of reduced combat battalion’s manning level, the AFU opt for creating additional unmanned aerial vehicle formations and increasing the number of attack drones.

❗️ Moreover, the units of the Joint Group of Forces use UAVs on average twice as much as the enemy.

In two weeks of February, in spite of harsh winter conditions, formations and military units of the Joint Group of Forces liberated 12 settlements. More than 200 square kilometres of territory have come under control of Russian troops.

The files that keep on giving. The Trump Justice Department just sent Congress a six-page letter explaining why it redacted parts of the Epstein files (https://t.me/geopolitics_prime/61508). The document is signed by Pam Bondi and Todd Blanche.

The same letter also reveals that Pam Bondi and Todd Blanche are among the “government officials and politically exposed persons” whose names appear in the files.

📌 Let that sink in: The people running the Epstein “transparency” operation are also the people whose names needed protecting.

The Munich Security Conference this year is worse than ever before. No strategy, no common sense, no dignity — just childish bluster and warmongering. Here is Zelensky mocking Viktor Orbán’s belly. pic.twitter.com/Adcz69Yk9O

And about President Putin the green dwarf says: “Putin does not live like ordinary people, he can’t imagine life without power— or after power”. Ordinary things don’t interest him. Putin consults more with Tsar Peter and Empress Catherine about territorial conquests than with any living person about real life”, — Zelensky

Maria Zakharova quipped: ‘What Zelensky is saying can no longer be called statements. It’s some kind of raving from a sick person, a mental illness’.  And this is coming from a drug-addicted neo-Nazi who ruined his own country’s army with money stolen from Europeans, including Hungarians.

It is almost impossible to describe how insane this Security Conference is.   Glen Diesen says ‘childish’.  Children have intrinsic charm.  This is puerile, insipid, vacant and criminally devoid of intelligence.  It is a farce.  In such circumstances one usually can find some humor. There is no humor here .. like .. its not even funny. And these are the people wanting to make war. Barack Obama is there: His wisdom is that aliens are real but they’re NOT in Area 51. Hillary Clinton is shaking the air at Trump saying he betrayed the west and her husband and Obama deported MORE PEOPLE than Trump.

I understand at a very deep level why we call them barbarians.

Vacuous Words of Rubio – Various Commentators

Auspicious times:

Today is Valentines Day. We wish you good lovin’ in the true sense of the word.

On the 17th the Chinese Spring Festival or New Year’s Celebration starts. (New Year, the Year of the Red Horse, red representing fire, so, the year of the Fire Horse)

Ramadan Mubarak to all: Ramadan starts on the eve of the 17th as well.

These auspicious times are much more soul serving to ponder.  Munich Security Conference is a performative circus of cringe for mutts and media while they pretend not to see the wars that they pay for. I forgot to say it is a major joint therapy session as well.

Russia’s Deputy FM Ryabkov says BRICS is building systems the US can’t easily switch off.  He warns that  members won’t yield to sanctions or diktat.  The Bloc is also working on a precious metals exchange.

Peru’s Chancay megaport has become a major US-China flashpoint after a Peruvian court limited state regulator oversight of the Chinese state-run COSCO facility. Washington warns Lima risks “eroding sovereignty” by accepting “cheap Chinese money,” while Beijing dismisses these claims as slander against its $1.3 billion Belt and Road flagship project cutting shipping times to 23 days across Latin America.

Russia doubles down on de-dollarization.  Central Bank chief Elvira Nabiullina says no discussions are underway to restore USD for exports, despite yesterday’s Bloomberg claims of a potential US deal incentive.

We need to get used to these are media trial balloons.  In terms of currency, we are in a competition  … the reserve currency is just about fut, and the others are increasingly using local currencies for trade.  Currencies will now compete in the new world dispensation.

Russian Defence Ministry on progress of special military operation as of 7–13 February 2026

❗️In response to the terrorist attacks launched by Ukraine against civilian objects in the territory of the Russian Federation, from 7 to 13 February the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation carried out one massive and six group strikes, which hit enterprises of the Ukrainian defence industry, energy, fuel and transport infrastructure facilities used for the interests of the AFU, military hardware and missile and artillery weapons depots, military airfields, production, storage and launch sites of attack unmanned aerial vehicles, as well as temporary deployment points of Ukrainian armed formations and foreign mercenaries.

🚩 During the week, as a result of intensive offensive actions of the Sever Group of Forces units, the settlements of Chugunovka (Kharkov region) and Sidorovka (Sumy region) have been liberated.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

New negotiations on the Ukrainian settlement will take place on February 17-18, with the Russian delegation being led by Medinsky.”We’re talking only about a tripartite format”: Europeans will not be present at the negotiations between Russia, the USA, and Ukraine in Geneva, Dmitry Peskov told TASS.

🚀 Sea-launch surprise: China just sent 7 satellites to orbit—with Pakistan on board.

China launched its Smart Dragon-3 (SD-3) rocket from waters off Yangjiang, Guangdong, placing seven satellites into preset orbits. One payload was Pakistan’s PRSC-EO2 earth-observation satellite, spotlighting Global South tech cooperation that can support mapping, disaster monitoring, and resource protection. Moves like this hint at a more multipolar “space economy” where emerging nations share capability instead of buying it at a premium.

Every decent analyst, journalist or knowledgeable commentator knows it now.  The US is still seeking full primacy, on all levels, Across all spheres, across all civil society, and right across the planet, Its lands, its waters, its oceans,  and its skies.  No alternative analysis is remotely possible.  Henceforth and for the foreseeable future, in terms of geopolitical affairs Across the Planet, this is the only framing that makes sense.         

🔹🔹🔹🔹

Tomorrow starts the 62nd Munich Security Conference (MSC) – from Friday through Sunday.

The US-led global system of governance is ending.  The world is in deep division.  Secretary of State Marco Rubio will be the US leader and more than 50 members of the US Congress are expected to attend (gangs run in gang groups).  Last year Vance patronized and lectured Europe.     Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi will attend and deliver a speech at the China session.  We can expect a similar broken message as we saw at the recent Davos.   Overall about 65 world leaders are expected.  As you see expected farcical media, one thing we must remember: There is peace in the middle-east and Gazans and West Bankers are not being killed daily.

Russia will supply Cuba with oil as humanitarian aid and the Russian embassy in Cuba announced that a ‘Shipment is expected soon’.

Feb 11

No agreement reached with Netanyahu, says Trump and he will go for negotiations. But, nobody really believes him as everyone remembers the 12-day war started in negotiations. Again Trump says there is peace in the Middle East.  There is no peace. At some stage Trump said everyone killed in Gaza were Hamas members. (Hamas members must be toddlers).

🔹🔹🔹🔹

Mexico has set up a continuous humanitarian supply chain to Cuba. President Claudia Sheinbaum confirmed that ships Papaloapan and Isla Holbox are delivering over 800 tons of aid to Cuba on February 12. 🚢 One vessel will return while another is immediately dispatched—establishing a continuous supply chain. Mexican flights to the island remain operational, and Sheinbaum hasn’t ruled out civilian donation programs through civil organizations to support the Caribbean nation.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

Maria Zakharova in an interview with RT on Diplomats Day:

The Global trend of ‘might is right’ is growing.  The Multipolar world ‘will not become an overnight phenomenon’.  ‘We will have to fight for this… it is the future‘.

Russia is working to hold back the destruction of the UN as an organization.  ‘Positions in the secretariat are filled only by representatives from the North Atlantic bloc’.  Russia is working to prevent the UN from ‘mutating into a club in the hands of 1 group of countries’

🔹🔹🔹🔹

Venezuela confirmed.  They sent no oil to Israel but the Trump administration did.  Commodity traders sold Venezuelan crude to an Israeli refiner as part of the Trump-enforced administration of the Caribbean nation’s oil exports. To export any oil, Venezuela needs to apply for an export license from the US.

Widely distributed in the western media :  Venezuela shipped their first oil to Israel.

NOT SO FAST!  Here is the actual situation:

Trump’s twisting Venezuela’s hand to attempt to turn US into a ‘petro-empire’, and with that restoring the petro-dollar.

Venezuela’s state oil company PDVSA has reversed most output cuts, pushing the nation’s oil production close to 1 million barrels per day (bpd), according to Reuters.

🔴 Having kidnapped Venezuela’s legitimate President Nicolas Maduro, the Trump administration is trying to boost the nation’s oil production under its control

🔴 The US completed its first $500 million sale of Venezuelan oil in mid‑January, fetching about 30% higher prices than Venezuela did under Maduro. (Under sanctions, Venezuela sold to intermediaries at discounted prices).

🔴 Washington forced Venezuela into passing hydrocarbons law reforms in late January to open the oil sector to private and foreign firms

🔴 The US continues to hunt Venezuelan oil tankers: on February 9, the US military seized the Aquila II in the Indian Ocean, the eighth vessel captured since last year

🔴 The Pentagon is maintaining its blockade on other oil vessels leaving and entering Venezuela, curbing the nation’s sovereign oil trade

🔴 Trump has urged US oil companies to mobilize up to $100 billion to revamp Venezuela’s oil sector in as few as 18 months

By controlling energy sales, the US aims to reinforce the dollar’s dominance, selling hydrocarbons for greenbacks.  The US also keeps Venezuela under financial control as any revenue goes to US companies and from there they dole out pennies to Venezuela that in turn must be spent in the US.  “Donroe Doctrine” on steroids.

Max Blumenthal reports that the US holds a secret indictment on Delcy Rodríques, similar to the secret indictment that they held on Julian Assange: US holds secret indictment of Delcy Rodriguez, top opposition journo claims

We are waiting for a very brilliant article (I’ve seen a draft so I know it is brilliant), on the fact that the Monroe Doctrine claims the entire planet as America’s sphere of influence and the fall-out in terms of law.   Most of last year I repeated:  “We cannot live with this empire any longer”.  This year and so far, the repetitive phrase is:  “Gird Up!  We are in a Great Fight.”

🔹🔹🔹🔹

Trump – India continues to import oil from Russia. “Now they’re buying very little. They’ve greatly reduced their purchases,” – stated the US President.

Yet Russia reports that there has been no reduction in deliveries to India and India has not reported anything of reduced oil trade to Russia.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

The WSJ reports:  U.S. officials told the Wall Street Journal that Trump administration officials discussed seizing additional oil tankers carrying Iranian oil to put pressure on Tehran, but backed away from the idea because of concerns about a near-certain backlash and its impact on global oil markets.

(WSJ. Reuters, Al Jazeera and others, must be taken with some grains of salt).

🔹🔹🔹🔹

Americans dislike the UN because it requires persuading someone and seeking compromise — Lavrov in an interview with Empatiya Manuchi:  ‘They want to organize and decide everything.”

And possibly, the most disturbing statement:  “We cannot see any chance of denuclearization.  ‘We cannot speak of denuclearization while on the horizon there is the United States’ nuclear cooperation with South Korea and likely even Japan”.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

Iran still is top of the pops in the media, shortly behind Epstein, which continues to produce.

We don’t know how accurate the following report is.  It may be planted against China but it certainly is a watch-list item.

The lack of US strikes against Iran and the increasing deployment of US military forces in the Middle East are increasingly being linked to China’s intelligence and network support for Iran, as well as the Chinese scientific radar vessel “Ocean No. 1.”

Following the deployment of the Type 055 destroyer and the Type 052 destroyer in the Oman Sea region to escort the research vessel’s reconnaissance ship, Western military experts believe that “Ocean No. 1” is likely tracking the movements of US Navy ships and submarines and sharing this information with Iran. Coupled with the fact that China is photographing and publishing satellite images of U.S. bases in the Middle East, there is no possibility of a surprise attack, which makes it even more difficult for the U.S. and Israel to launch a strike without casualties.

In addition, we have this: China’s YLC-8B Radar Transfer to Iran Could Rewrite Middle East Airpower and End Stealth Dominance

🔹🔹🔹🔹

The sheer size of Iranian humanity marching in the streets to to commemorate the anniversary of the revolution’s victory is breathtaking.  The estimate is that 23 to 26 million people took part in today’s Islamic Revolution rallies across Iran –  Every city is involved and all of the Iranian leadership take part in the marches.  You won’t see any of this in western media as they cannot afford to.  Speaking to Press TV, Patrick Henningen said if the huge turnout of Iranians supporting their government were covered by Western media, their leaders would have to reevaluate their stereotypes of Iran.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

Colombia’s President Petro says that he survived an assassination attempt this week.  This would be the second one.  He states that he had to flee by sea as his planned helicopter landing site was compromised.   He reports that he was under pressure of his life when visiting the US for a summit with Trump.

“The highest security is peace and dialogue between civilizations”

🇨🇴Colombian President Gustavo Petro stated that he intends to speak at the Munich Security Conference to widely publicize the message he conveyed to Donald Trump.

“I will deliver an opening speech at this conference on peace and global security in Munich, Germany. Commanders and prime ministers from Europe, Latin America, Africa, and the Arab world will be present. I will try to convey the same message of the ‘Pact for Life’ that I sent to Trump. The race is not for missiles; the race is for life. The highest security is peace and dialogue between civilizations.”

🔹🔹🔹🔹

Africa, mainly North of the Sahara is blowing up in spots. The detail level is difficult to clearly represent as there are so many groups and insurgents and so many border and tribal uncertainties as a result of colonialism.  Femi Akomolafe on Nigeria:

In a response to an analysis, he says: “….. American intervention might start from the North, but why would it end there?”  He asks:  ‘Would Americans put boots on the ground, as they say, and do they think that a few Tomahawks tame the type of insurgencies we have in Nigeria?’  It is reported that there are 200 American boots on the ground in Nigeria alone under the guise of ‘saving the Christians’.
