Sic transit commedia mundi!
Best book of 2025: worth reading since 2026 is almost here for many, but not for all.

How Ukraine tragedy is not actually another contingency of the post Cold War self-proclaimed victory. Hybris is always just behind the halls of pompous glory.

If indeed Russians want again ‘a holly alliance’ / ‘Christian alliance’ - this time as vassals of China against China - chances are high it will end in ‘a greater success’ than in 1815.

Age, attitude, character: enough criteria to understand which one will survive only as long he is ‘in power’. As about their respective countries, it must be obvious in which one a democratic, open, peaceful transfer of power is possible. The rest is speculating into the future.

Known unknown:
‘K.’ from a first name - Kirill?
2. ‘K.’ from a last name - Kushner?
3. ‘K.’ from both first & last name - Keith Kellogg?
Looks like at least it is not anymore ‘a Polichinelle secret’.

Moldova pro-Russia parties refuse to even speak the national language. Now, because they probably failed to gather enough votes are calling followers to the streets of Moldova capital. For any pro-Russian, losing democratic elections is not a failure, but a chance for coup d’etat.

They built a parallel reality out of wooden language, got self-mesmerized by it and even managed to attract into their mediocre narrative naives, functional illiterates and other superficial beings. Russians are truly committed to inherit Soviet legacy to its very end.

#OTD 1968 Moscow (didguised as capital of a Soviet ‘federal’ republic) ordered the military invasion of its own ally Czechoslovakia (current Czech & Slovak Republics) because people ‘dared’ to be free Europeans.

The irony of politics is the provisions of Ukraine-US agreement on minerals are incompatible with Russia’s request of Ukraine giving up the resources rich Donbas. Now that’s a ‘throwing a wrench’ into the indicted war criminal Putin cheap concocted ‘rim & spokes’ trap.

There were rumours indicted war criminal VV Putin spent Covid lockdown ‘dealing’ with history, although he is functionally illiterate. The cunning of history is he made Alaska trip into a 1807 Tilsit moment & just triggered a 1856 Paris Concert in Washington D.C. today.

The occupied Ukrainian provinces have been illegally annexed: Crimea, Donbas (Donetsk & Luhansk), Kherson & Zaporizhia are ‘enshrined’ in both Ukraine (legitimate under international law) & Russia (illegally) Constitutions. If no one backs up, then one will end up being broke up.

By the end of the next week, the ICC indicted war criminal V.V. Putin’s magnificent leadership in (self-)destroying Russia will be an open secret. Will Xi jump into his own suicidal ‘stabilisation & reconstruction mission’ for the sake of a big, beautiful communist Eurasia?

Looks like time’s ripe to send over to Russians another Lenin. They are practically asking for it.

1) Europe’s options: ‘Eurasia’, ‘Eurafrica’.
2) China’s options: ‘Eurasia’, ‘Afroasia’.
3) United States & Russia: each other.
