🌍 Eye-Opening Insight: China's Hidden Magnet Powerhouse!
Trade stats reveal China exporting 58,000 tonnes of magnets annually, yet the full picture shines brighter—another 20,000-40,000 tonnes embedded in EVs, wind turbines, and electronics, powering 80,000-100,000 tonnes for the global energy transition. Outside China, production hits just 16%, boosted by rare-earth processing strengths.
🚀 Could this dominance spark smarter Global South partnerships and accelerate the green future?

🔥 Xi’s Power Move: A Deep Purge Hits China’s Military Elite!
⚖️ A major political and military scandal is unfolding in Beijing. Xi Jinping has approved official investigations into Zhang Youxia, Vice Chairman of the Central Military Commission, and Liu Zhenli, Chief of the PLA’s Joint Staff. Both are accused of “serious violations” of party discipline and law — a rare move targeting some of China’s most powerful generals.
🌏 Analysts see this as more than anti-corruption — it could reflect a deeper struggle for control within the People’s Liberation Army and the top ranks of the Communist Party. Such purges often reshape internal alliances, influence China’s global posture, and even affect military readiness across Asia.
💬 Do you see this as an internal power struggle or a genuine cleanup of corruption? How could this impact China’s role in the BRICS bloc and its military ambitions?

On VIBEs and PEAKs in EM
Back in 2018 an article authored by myself for the Valdai club advanced the concept of PEAKS/InPEAKs as the next generation of BRICS economies – Indonesia, Pakistan, Egypt, Argentina and Kazakhstan[1]. In the beginning of 2023 this PEAKS concept was extended to include Saudi Arabia in expectation of the BRICS enlargement that was to be discussed at the BRICS summit in South Africa in August 2023.

🚨 Gaza's "new tourist paradise" built on buried horrors?
The Italian newspaper "Avvenire" (close to the Vatican) reveals a shocking plan to dump 60 million cubic meters of rubble—and potentially bodies—into the sea, artificially expanding Gaza's coastline to over 65km (twice the length of Italy's popular Rimini beaches). Framed as rapid reconstruction, critics slam it as erasing war crimes for a glossy "Gaza Riviera."
🗣️ Cleanup or cover-up? Should Global South voices lead Gaza's true healing over Western schemes? Drop your thoughts!

During last year’s Joint Viking exercise in northern Norway, American troops struggled
Exercise commanders had to ask Finnish reservists, playing the invading force, to ease up, according to The Times citing a military source
‘The Finns had to be told to stop beating the Americans as it was embarrassing and demoralizing for them,’ the source said

🧩 Iraq’s largest Shia bloc has nominated former PM Nouri al-Maliki – a close Tehran ally once blocked by Washington – as its candidate for prime minister. Sunni factions are objecting, while Kurdish parties seem more open, making coalition-building the key battlefield.
⚖️ At the same time, the US is warning it could freeze Iraq’s access to its own oil revenue dollars if Iranian-aligned politicians enter government, as Baghdad signals it won’t bow to post-withdrawal financial pressure.
🤔 Is this a real step toward Iraqi sovereignty and Global South independence, or will US financial leverage still decide who governs in Baghdad?

🇿🇦 South Africa considers sending in the army to stop deadly gang wars
🧩 President Cyril Ramaphosa says the government may deploy soldiers to Cape Town’s gang-hit areas after 26 people were killed last weekend.
⚠️ But there’s concern: troops are trained for combat, not community security — raising questions about escalation and long-term strategy.
🌍 With over 2,100 murders in nine months, many ask whether military intervention is the only way to restore order where police forces are overwhelmed.
💭 Would military action bring peace to the Cape Flats — or risk turning neighborhoods into war zones?

🚗 India opens its roads to Europe—at a price drop!
Big news: India is set to slash import tariffs on high-end European cars from a staggering 110% to 40%, and eventually down to 10%.
🇮🇳 This change could make luxury brands like BMW, Mercedes, and Volkswagen far more accessible to Indian buyers.
⚡ Electric vehicles, however, are excluded from these cuts for the first five years—aimed at shielding local EV makers as the market grows.
💬 Will lowering tariffs boost consumer choice and trade—or push India’s local auto industry into tougher competition?
