Breaking Articles
By Nat South for the Saker Blog In this article I want to highlight something that will be taking behind the scenes so to speak, following the recent sinking of the Black Sea Fleet Flagship, ‘Moskva’.

Moreover, the possibility of recovering bodies isn’t discounted either.

Journalism that does not conform must be taken down. This month, several of us – Scott Ritter, myself, ASB Military News, among others – were canceled from Twitter.

by Ramin Mazaheri for the Saker blog What a difference five years makes? I wish I could report differently, but the long awaited French presidential debate was a total dud. Just like the whole election campaign was. And now, just like both candidates, too.

The order was sent to Home Secretary Priti Patel who has to sign off on extraditions. Assange’s defense has until May 18 to make submissions to Patel against extradition.

By R. Lesnoix for the Saker Blog Four years ago, I wrote an article for this site, my first, because of how bad I felt about how our western governments had been acting, especially in the middle east, and with regards to Syria in particular.

As the plot of the novel unfolds, the protagonist
https://www.mid.ru/en/foreign_policy/news/1810023/ Question: The big question that most are asking is the reason for this operation, the reason for President Putin to take the country to war at a time when we have seen negotiations and talks taking place. What was the reason? We know that America said that Russia was going to carry out operations. New Delhi certainly was not aware of it. Many countries said that it is not

By Francis Lee for the Saker Blog One of the unstated and extant features of the contemporary age has been the demise of the Westphalian Treaty. This arrangement had in times past regulated the relationship and clashes of interest among the great powers. We should remind ourselves that the key precepts of the system were preceded by the carnage of the 30 years’ war in Europe circa 1618-1648, and eventually
Dear friends While there are not official confirmations (that I know of) from the Russian military, it appears that Lavrov is the first, and so far only, Russian official who declared that the 2nd phase of the operation has begun. Truth be told, pretty much everybody else thinks likewise. Considering the intensity of Russian bombings and artillery strikes overnight, which were reported by numerous sources, it certainly appears reasonable to

By Nightvision for the Saker Blog I didn’t plan on covering the Moskva anymore, as I like many want to move on past that topic.
