Geopolitics by Sergey Mikheev 🇷🇺☦️
October 6th, 2023, 🧵: Russia🇷🇺 is declaring itself a full-fledged sovereign civilization, but after 30 years of profound secondary status, the hardest part is proving it, first and foremost to its own people and within their own minds. A genuine civilization is not just self-sufficiency in resources or power, it is defined by its own independent way of thinking, its unique language of argumentation, its distinct worldview, and a deep sense of self rooted in its own culture, traditions, and faith.

What if the west isn't the villain they told you it was? We’ve spent years accepting accusations about racism, intolerance, and slavery without challenging the bigger historical reality: The societies most condemned today are also the ones that led the world in ending slavery, expanding rights, and building the most tolerant nations on earth. That’s the conversation nobody wants to have.

Told BRICS FMs summit: Iran's resistance against U.S. bullying is not an unfamiliar battle. So many of us encounter slight variations of same repugnant coercion. High time for us to jointly step up and work towards making clear that those practices belong in dustbin of history.

The world after Western dominance won’t be neutral. It will belong to someone else. The “multipolar world” is being sold as the end of Western hypocrisy and the solution to the failures of the current order. But power never disappears, it shifts. And an unstable multipolar world will eventually produce a new dominant civilisation, with its own values imposed on everyone else. The real question is: are those values better than ours? I don't think so.

Araghchi absolutely RIPS at the BRICS Foreign Ministers' meeting in New Delhi. A lesson to all BRICS and BRICS+ partners. Actually, a mini-manifesto: "To virtually everyone in this room, our resistance against US bullying is not an unfamiliar battle. So many of us encounter slight variations of the same repugnant coercion. It is high time for us to jointly step up and work towards making clear that those practices belong in the dustbin of history. Today, our nations are closer to one another than ever before, and we cannot ignore the common and dangerous challenge we all face. History has shown that empires in decline will stop at nothing to arrest their inevitable fates. A wounded animal will desperately claw and roar on its way down."

BREAKING: Russia says it has successfully tested the RS-28 Sarmat ICBM — one of the most powerful nuclear delivery systems ever built. Why this matters: The Sarmat is not just “another missile.” It is designed specifically to bypass existing and future Western missile defense systems and restore Russia’s strategic nuclear leverage in a rapidly changing world. What makes it different: • Intercontinental range reportedly exceeding 18,000 km • Designed to carry multiple MIRVs (independently targetable nuclear warheads) • Hypersonic-capable delivery systems • Massive payload capacity • Ability to potentially approach targets over the South Pole, bypassing traditional northern missile defense architecture • Intended to overwhelm missile shields through speed, decoys, and saturation attacks Russian officials claim no current missile defense system can reliably intercept it. At the same time: • Ukraine and Germany are deepening drone cooperation • European leaders are warning they cannot allow a Russian victory • NATO and Russia continue escalating strategic messaging • Nuclear deterrence doctrine is becoming central again in global politics This is why the Sarmat test matters far beyond Russia. It signals: a return to Cold War-style strategic competition increased pressure on NATO missile defense systems rising risks of escalation and miscalculation a new era of arms race dynamics involving hypersonics, drones, AI, and nuclear deterrence Fog of war is real. Verify everything. Is the world entering a new nuclear arms race? Powered by Fang Chen AI

A small reminder of who Alexei Navalny truly was, before western mainstream media portrayed him as the saintly martyr for democratic/liberal values. In reality, Navalny was a minor Russian neo-nazi who in the early 2000's filmed low-budget racist video clips equating muslims to cockroaches that needed to be eradicated with legal firearms. Somewhere between filming extremist videos and participating in nationalist marches (back when they were still legal in Russia), he caught the attention of the CIA and the British MI6 for his destructive potential in Russia. After studying alongside Juan Guaido at the Soros-sponsored "Yale Fellows Program," Navalny was poised to become the new face of the colored revolution in Russia, akin to those seen in Libya/Ukraine/Venezuela.

The enduring myth of European🇪🇺 superiority runs deeper than any specific ideology. It is not rooted in any fixed truth but in a flexible, ever-shifting rationale that can be reinvented for each era. In our time, the favorite justification has become the sacred myth of democracy: “You lack democracy, we possess it. You oppose democracy, we defend it. Therefore we are wiser, better, and higher than you, and we alone have rights you are denied.” Feel the logic at work. The underlying pretext can be almost anything, as long as it ultimately leads to the same conclusion: you are beneath us, we are above you. From that elevated position flows the quiet conviction that normal rules, laws, and moral restraints simply do not apply to us. This is how supremacy thinking actually operates behind the polished language of modern politics.

The harsh truth about Russia’s🇷🇺 approach to the Ukraine🇺🇦 conflict is this: not a single so-called “goodwill gesture” over the past four years has produced any positive result. None of them worked. Yet we keep hearing endless justifications. There is no need to apologize to anyone when making statements, because this is about our own people. Does the opinion of our population count for something or not? In my view, it counts for far more than the opinion of Europeans, Ukrainians, or Americans. Ultimately, the success or failure of our efforts depends on the moral spirit of our own citizens, on what happens inside the country, and on whether we stay strong. We declared this special operation and set clear goals. Those goals must be achieved. There is no reason to keep apologizing in some guilty tone to anyone. Nobody accepts those excuses anyway, and they only create the painful feeling inside Russia that we are constantly apologizing to someone. The absolute majority of our population wants the conflict to end in the hardest, fastest, and most decisive victory possible.

People suddenly point out that the Americans🇺🇸 struck Iranian🇮🇷 leadership, yet Iran did not surrender. With Iran, it has not worked so far. But with Venezuela🇻🇪 it did work, imagine that. I personally noticed how, once Maduro was effectively removed or neutralized, Venezuela quickly fell apart. The Americans got everything they wanted from Venezuela at that moment.

The Russian🇷🇺 public has one blunt question about the Ukraine🇺🇦 conflict: why didn’t we crush the current Kiev leadership much earlier? In truth, the overwhelming majority of our people have wanted since 2022 to smash into rubble the entire ruling group in Ukraine that openly defines their country as anti-Russia. There is no point in making excuses or offering endless “ifs.” When a hostile elite entrenches itself in power right on our borders, decisive strikes become inevitable. Most Russians are not asking whether it should be done; they are simply asking why it was not done long ago. As for the main objection, that eliminating Zelensky would turn him into a hero, the answer is simple: they already have. Western media and politicians finished that job years ago. He is their hero regardless, so waiting changes nothing.

More and more Europeans are rejecting the propaganda and recognizing that Russia poses no existential threat to them… The true enemies are the EU’s globalist puppets and a mainstream media…

@mtmalinen @MedvedevRussiaE They talk about building missiles in Norway, Denmark and elsewhere that will fly at us, while we say we cannot even touch Ukrainian leadership, and that is all. The conclusion they draw is that there is nothing to fear. Therefore they can keep escalating. x.com/Miheev_Quotes/…
Geopolitics by Sergey Mikheev 🇷🇺☦️@Miheev_Quotes

Europe's🇪🇺 dangerous illusion of a "safe war" is rooted in the current Ukraine🇺🇦 conflict, where elites watch distant battlefield clashes and drone strikes from the comfort of untouched capitals, convincing themselves that proxy warfare carries no real risk to their own security. Europeans are tuned exactly for this kind of war, the one they see happening now with Ukraine: something occurs on the battlefield, we get hit with drones, but there are no special risks for them. That is what they are counting on. They base this model on the war in Ukraine. Ruling elites feel safe. If everything is kept far enough from the front line, it remains quite safe for them. European territories are inviolable. So why not fight? The problem is that by accepting this situation we ourselves partly create the conditions for them to treat the conflict this way. They talk about building missiles in Norway, Denmark and elsewhere that will fly at us, while we say we cannot even touch Ukrainian leadership, and that is all. The conclusion they draw is that there is nothing to fear. Therefore they can keep escalating.

September 15th, 2020: Navalny's Western ties became impossible to deny after his alleged poisoning. The West's exaggerated focus on his personality openly revealed their true intentions. His dependence on them grew so deep that he is now practically bound to them by blood. What was once debatable, with his supporters insisting he had no Western connections and was even a Russian nationalist, turned undeniable when German🇩🇪 authorities immediately dispatched private jets to fly him out. Instead of insisting he was a Russian citizen who should receive treatment in Russia, Western capitals acted like wind-up toys, all demanding his immediate extraction abroad. In the end, this haste made their position look rather weak and exposed the whole game for what it was. We have seen such "Russian nationalists" before, the kind for whom the Germans rush to send private planes. Tell that to your audience.

Russia🇷🇺 is therefore called the enemy. Yet this approach seems strange because it runs counter to all principles of international trade and free trade. You cannot buy this from the enemy, you cannot buy that from the other enemy. In the end, it boils down to a very simple formula: from anyone America considers its adversary in one way or another, you must buy nothing if there is an American alternative, even if it is more expensive.

September 15th, 2020: All the lofty talk about freedoms, elections, and democracy is merely a distraction from the real agenda. In this case, the core priority is crystal clear: Americans🇺🇸 need to force the sale of their liquefied natural gas to as many countries as possible, ideally capturing the entire European🇪🇺 market. Given the tense relations with Russia🇷🇺, the demonization of Moscow and the chosen conflict serve as an excellent PR move to promote American goods in European markets. That is the entire collision in a nutshell. Everything else is secondary. In the short term, it is straightforward: use relations with Russia as a publicity pretext to push your own product, namely liquefied gas, onto these countries' markets. Around this, anything can be built up and anything can be said, from the struggle for Ukrainian independence to Alexei Navalny. All means are good; everything is thrown into one pile.
