Russia is accelerating the implementation of its satellite communication system called Rassvet, which is intended to be an equivalent of Elon Musk’s Starlink system, writes Kyiv Independent, quoting the deputy head of Ukraine’s military intelligence services, Major General Vadim Skibitskyi. According to him, the Russians’ plans are progressing faster than initially planned. “Moscow is implementing Rassvet, essentially a Russian analogue of the Starlink system.

Russia launched the first 16 Rassvet satellites into Earth’s low orbit in March…

While the world’s attention is focused on conflicts in Iran, Gaza, and Ukraine, Xi Jinping is consolidating his power in China and expanding his global ambitions, betting on an increasingly aggressive policy both domestically and abroad. The Chinese leader, always strategic, goes on the offensive, both abroad and at home. It’s bad news for the global order and for minorities in China, argues foreign policy analyst Simon Tisdall in an analysis published by The Guardian. A hypothetical example can illustrate the extent of the policies promoted by Beijing. If a British prime minister were to tell the Scots that they…

Robert Brovdi, the commander of the Unmanned Systems Forces of the Ukrainian army, known by the call sign “Madiar”, has listed five conditions that he considers necessary for ending the war with Russia.

The fifth condition, Brovdi argues, is…

The comments of the Russian official suggest that Moscow is not willing to support a mere cessation of…

The mass arrival of migrants in the Spanish enclave of Ceuta has provoked one of the most serious crises at the borders of the European Union. While authorities investigate the role of trafficking networks and the spread of information on social networks, some sources suggest that Russia may have tried to exploit the situation. However, there are no public evidences to demonstrate that Moscow organized the incursion. Approximately 78,000 migrants are believed to have gathered near the Moroccan border, before thousands of them attempted to penetrate the Spanish enclave of Ceuta. Some came prepared for the sea crossing, wearing swimming…
