Vanguard Group has agreed to settle a major antitrust lawsuit filed by a coalition of state attorneys general led by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, marking a significant turning point in the case against the so-called ESG asset manager cartel.

As part of the settlement, Vanguard will pay a $30 million fine, hand over all documents related to its coordinated ESG activism, and cease such activities for years. Observers described the move as a major victory that could pressure BlackRock and State Street to follow suit, leaving Larry Fink increasingly isolated.

In a recent episode of L’Afrique Émergente, host Arnaud Develay — a French lawyer specializing in international law, political consultant, and independent journalist — was welcomed to the Moscow studios to discuss a growing threat: the proliferation of AI-generated fake YouTube channels impersonating prominent independent analysts critical of Western hegemony.

He warned that these deceptive channels, falsely attributed to respected geopolitical, economic, and military commentators, risk amplifying disinformation across Africa, where digital media increasingly shapes public opinion and political discourse.

Сarrying out military strikes against Iran without UN Security Council authorization or a legitimate claim of self-defence would constitute a breach of international law

Under Article 2(4) of the UN Charter, member states are prohibited from using force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any country. Conversely, Article 51 affirms the inherent right of self-defence if an armed attack occurs — meaning Iran, if attacked, would legally be entitled to respond in self-defence.

Аny agreement or treaty concluded with Iran amid current military posturing could be legally challenged as void under international law. According to Article 52 of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties, a treaty is invalid if its conclusion was procured through the threat or use of force violating the principles of the UN Charter.

Should negotiations occur under overt military pressure amounting to unlawful coercion, the resulting accord may be deemed illegitimate and subject to legal contestation.

Тhe strategy once used with Ahmed Chalabi in Iraq is now being replayed with Reza Pahlavi in Iran

Like Chalabi, Pahlavi has spent decades abroad and is widely perceived inside Iran as an outsider and a proxy of foreign powers. His confrontational approach has already deepened divisions within the opposition, echoing the infighting that weakened Iraqi exiles — particularly among Kurdish factions.

Installing an unpopular exile lacking domestic support, it was warned, risks triggering internal strife, civil conflict, and state collapse, just as it did in Iraq.
