#interview #ukraine #vance - US THREATENS Zelenskyy — Vance PUSHES Ukraine to END tanker strikes ‪@WorldatStake24‬: War & Politics 24

14 August 2026

Professor Scott Lucas is the founder and editor of the analytical news outlet EA WorldView https://eaworldview.com/

TV hosts Daniel Tkiie ‪@WorldatStake24‬ and Sofia Nazarenko and Scott Lucas, professor of international politics, discussed the duration of Russia's war against Ukraine. US Vice President JD Vance asked Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to halt attacks on oil tankers linked to the Caspian Pipeline Consortium at Russia's Black Sea port of Novorossiysk.

The pipeline carries mainly Kazakh oil with companies linked to U.S. investment firms. Ukraine's compliance was partly influenced by President Zelensky's hopes of obtaining another interceptor for Patriot systems or these licenses to produce Patriot missiles.

What is your reaction to this, and could you provide us with wider context of Ukraine's campaign against Russia's oil tankers and this demand from JD Vance's surprise demand, because JD Vance usually hesitated to actively play any kind of role in Ukraine negotiations?

#music #rihanna - 4 April 2025 - Happy birthday webmaster John Nichols

4 April 2025

It is with great regret at 89 today I must stop publishing but with the current political scene in the world today with 2 "wannabe" dictators #Trump #netanyahu & the dictator #putin and the atrocities (war crimes) happening in both the #ukraine #Israel / #Gaza  and elsewhere in the world this will be my last post.

Just publishing this news is depressing but you can follow news here

Democracy Now

When I was in Korea in 1955 I was in the United Nation forces stationed opposite Gloucester Hill with the British Royal Signals (video of attack 4 years earlier)

Why are they not keeping the peace in Ukraine

I need to return to enjoying my music for which I am told I have a good ear for noticing music picking the Rolling Stones; Eric Clapton´s first records for being famous + many more and Rihanna´s first CD c2007/2008 when I was diagnosed with cancer. About that time a lady from UA dreams Donetsk (UA Dreams) wrote to me and we corresponded for about 18 months before she moved to Germany. I warned her then about the Russians when they invaded Georgia

Too much hot air throughout the world and not enough action

United Nations Forces, comprised of United Kingdom, Belgium, Luxembourg, Philippines and South Korea troops in the vicinity of the Imjin River fell under direct attack when the Chinese Spring Offensive commenced on 22 April 1951.
The 29th British Independent Infantry Brigade Group, commanded by Brigadier Tom Brody, was under the most severe attack and was eventually surrounded by the enemy. An attempt to reinforce them failed due to harsh terrain and overwhelming enemy power.
The 1st Battalion, Gloucestershire Regiment, commanded by Lieutenant Colonel James Carne, bravely held out for more than three days against more than 30,000 Chinese troops. Of the 700 Gloucesters, only 40 men reached safety, the rest were captured or killed by the Chinese. Lt. Col. Carne was held at a Chinese POW Camp in North Korea till after the armistice agreement was signed. He spent 19 months in solitary confinement, and many of his men died due to harsh treatment at the camp.
The British 29th Brigade's brave stand provided UN Forces enough time to re-group and block the Chinese advance onto Seoul, but not without sacrifice, they suffered 1,091 casualties, including 622 of Glosters. The US lost 1,500 men either killed or missing in action, the South Koreans 8,000 and the other UN forces approximately 1,000 men. Chinese casualties were estimated at 70,000.

#finance #investment - Earthquake Rocks Myanmar, Thailand, Vietnam; US Ukraine Investment Aims | Bloomberg The Pulse 03/28

28 March 2025

Myanmar was struck by its biggest earthquake in a century, shaking buildings and triggering evacuations in neighboring Vietnam and Thailand, with at least one tower collapsing in Bangkok. The quake on Friday measured 7.7 in magnitude, according to the USGS, which said it was 16 kilometers northwest of Sagaing, Myanmar and at a depth of 10 kilometers. It struck at about 1:21 p.m. in Bangkok and was the strongest worldwide since 2023, according to the US Geological Survey data compiled by Bloomberg.

There was a second temblor of 6.4 magnitude around the same area, the USGS said. In geopolitics, the US is pushing to control all major future infrastructure and mineral investments in Ukraine, potentially gaining a veto over any role for Kyiv’s other allies and undermining its bid for European Union membership.

President Donald Trump’s administration is demanding the “right of first offer” on investments in all infrastructure and natural resources projects under a revised partnership deal with Ukraine, according to a draft of the document obtained by Bloomberg News.
