They blew up pipelines, bombed reactors, and called it ‘energy security.’ Sound familiar?
➡️ https://youtu.be/sbfVkLFYOX4

Europe’s energy attacks aren’t random—they trace a triangle tied to a decades-old containment strategy aimed at Russia and BRICS. From Nord Stream to strikes on Czech and Hungarian energy sites, the pattern aligns with the “Trimarium” doctrine and the newly promoted IMEC corridor: a Western-backed alternative to the Belt and Road that exists only on paper in 2025.

While BRICS offers real infrastructure and energy partnerships, the West pushes a phantom route to keep Europe isolated from the Global Majority. What happens when Europe runs out of options?

Watch the full analysis to understand the strategic map behind the sabotage, and why the next move could reshape Europe’s allegiance.

Do you think Europe will choose real cooperation or stay trapped in old alliances? 🌍⚡️

Think BRICS pinned a photo
Is the Washington Accord between Armenia and Azerbaijan the dawn of a real, durable peace—or just geopolitical theater?

At the Doha Forum, top officials from both nations hailed the agreement as a “historic breakthrough,” framing the South Caucasus’ shift from a “battle space” to a “marketplace” of cooperation. Trade is opening, energy talks are underway, and people-to-people diplomacy is gaining ground. The U.S. positioned itself as an “impartial broker,” and both sides speak of irreversible progress.

But is this peace genuine and lasting, or a temporary façade shaped by external interests and elite bargains?

Something historic just happened in Rio that mainstream media completely ignored.

For the first time ever, regular people—not just government officials—had a say in BRICS decisions. Trade unions, universities, and popular movements just formalized a Popular Civil Council that will influence policies affecting 50% of the world's population.​

Meanwhile, BRICS nations are building alternative security frameworks, expanding local currency trade that's bypassing the dollar, and creating healthcare cooperation networks outside Western-dominated systems.​

Four major developments in December 2025 that the traditional press won't tell you about.

Watch to see what's really happening beyond the headlines. 👇
