Great podcast and it was amazing to see all of you in one setting! The idea of China & Russia's offer to preserve Zelensky against an imminent death row is one of the most controversial and yet sensible. I am not sure how it will play out and how Zelensky is willing to give up all of the wealth that he had been rewarded by his puppet masters, guess we will see. fascinating times indeed.
Curious about your take on what is the next big thing that awaits us, once the Ukraine business is concluded: Western financial collapse, Taiwan escalation, or another "plandemic", maybe?
Thank you Alex for clearing up situation. Drones attack on Kremlin was obvious set up by Zelensky handlers to escalate situation. Let’s see if his handlers will try to get rid of him while he’s on the “tour” and blame it to Russians. We need him alive
That reminds me....Germany's in a bad situation too.....there's only ONE major pipeline supplying it energy, that's left that helped it through the winter! ONE! yeow!
Hard nazis like Yarosh and co will kill him even if he tries to talk to Russia not even to 'negociate'.These real full nazis like the real thing(A H) or even worse will prefer to destroy Ukraine or even Europe than to surrender.

Eventually Elenskyy will spill the bean. Even if only in an off the record capacity. Perhaps to a neutral party? Am so worry the answer to the european social chaos crisis would be to conscript the migrants to be liquidated in an enlarge conflict. I tho i would never see this level of hatred from european leaders , i am 45 and i sure haven't forget the lessons from ww2 . London really want that war.
What do you make of Prigozhin ? to me it look like a bait , bolster confidence inside the UA troops?
Alex Mercouris take was : Prigozhin need vacation hahahah. Its an information war afterall , right?
I agree with most of your analysis. However, this particular statement caught my attention: "Volodymyr Zelensky has clearly defied his western handlers." I doubt he can act independently anymore. There isn't enough coke in all of Kiev left. That phone call seemed to be planned since Xi and Putin met in Moscow. Another perspective to consider, keeping in mind the West's arrogance, is that the CIA and Pentagon may view any peace talks or Chinese involvement in a potential ceasefire as a possibility for creating a rift between Russia and China.
As for my perspective on where the conflict currently stands, I believe that the U.S. will continue to push towards its ultimate goal of completely destroying Russia, without any intention of stopping, no matter the cost in Ukrainian lives (or the lives of Poles tomorrow).
Your conclusion that "we may see more surreal twists in the days ahead" strikes a chord with me; I could not agree more.
Agreed. But according to Larry Johnson - he was categorical about this - it was Zelensky who called Xi and did not ask his handlers for permission. He knows too much and a little tainted coke might be all it takes...
Zelenskyy never was acting as his own man. He was installed by his handlers from the start. He had leading role as a “ President of Ukraine” in series “ Слуга народа» for 2 years i believe( could be mistaken) to condition the public even before he got elected. He’s showman, not even a businessman. Funny enough in Ukraine, political party exists with same name “Слуга народа». Whatever Zelenskyy ever said publicly-he spoke from his handlers ( that’s how insane this people are!). RAND corp. planning to destroy Russia since end of WWII with “City of London”. Poles seeking to “grab” western part of Ukraine. I doubt they want to go to war with Russia for real( through out history they never succeeded anyway). “Belt and road “ initiative, development of Africa and Middle East is the biggest threat to Anglo-American establishment. They are loosing control and to be honest, that “ cream de la cream” completely divorced from reality. They don’t care if dollar collapses, they don’t care to destroy United States( almost destroyed Europe ( Germany first in line)). In western society only Big business interests could stop this insanity. Slavic blood was always “cheapest” in history of European wars, besides that Pentagon needs to get rid of “ out of day” weaponry, it cost money to destroy it, why not make some instead buy sending it to Ukraine.

US + UK goal, I mean real goal is not Russia but to destroy Continental Europe (then Eurasia in theit wet dreams) as Thalasso anglos are de facto bankrupted since Lehman in 2008, without QE eternity and zero interest rates and fake inflation nrs,this system would already be over a long time ago(see also DSK Trap in Sofitel NYC), Syria terror war(isis al quaeda US UK sponsored), covid bio psyop attack on China and SMO now.
They missed Beijing with c19, they will miss this one also against us including real US patriots citizens and ever 'normal UK' people from lower and middle classes.
War is a class war.Always.
This whistleblower (in 2010 ) in London, even if a bit in conspiracy, telling us that London is behind all war, City of London rules the World not WS. They even prepared covid...in 2005.WWIII is coming he says but he keeps hope.
Thanks to Tom Luongo, I found you Alex. That podcast was the meeting of four great minds.
We are living in a house of mirrors, where you can be sure of very little beyond the malfeasance and lack of any rational regard for the citizens of western countries by the political leaders of those countries. The Gordian knot these nefarious fools have foisted upon us will surely be untied by reality's sword. I appreciate your efforts to help us navigate these times while we do what we can to avoid that blade, which must come, but where and when is unknown.
Rock-solid *argumentation* Alex. I'm even more impressed than usual when hearing your in-depth /detailed reasoning. And.
I enjoyed your choice of BJ & Sir R. photo. Couldn't help but read the 'body language' in the photo-portrait i.e. Sir R. is 'holding onto his back pockets to protect his wallet and his rollex-address book'' while BJ just can't help himself with his hands in jacket pockets instead of his normal hands in pant's pockets 'playing with himself'/3rd leg. lol
:) Yeah. Actually, I gotta lotta more, 'comic relief' scenarios for the BJ & Lordie-Lordee R. photo-shoot. But, I'll save that for later considering We need a 'proper forum' here @Alex's Place-Space. Yeah. Gotta Laugh, Better than cryin'. I never lost my NJ-NYC humor regarding how to look at things without, loosing-1's-mind. I'm glad to know You & many of your Readers understand the old-fashion am.English colloquial(East Coast)-style. btw. Continue your *Holiday* now. Family is Best, even-the-bitchin' which goes along with it. Yep. ;) Enjoy Now!
Hi Alex. Thought You'd...enjoy the following, considering SOTT(I write some things there) actually re-publishes Your-Writings. The link is by this time...'buried' so... Have-a-Laugh :) https://www.sott.net/pic-of-day/677751

The data-loving business reader should notice the disparity of frequencies of meetings with Jeffrey Epstein with "big names" over the pivotal mid 2013-mid 2015 years among the bigwigs he was seeing. What could possibly going on?
Clearly, it doesn't take a data scientist for one to realize the MOST torrid frequent discussions involved Leon Black. Perhaps, in my imagining of events, the torridly frequent Leon Black meetings reflect Mr Black putting deals together USING mr Epstein as a go-between, with Ms Reummler ( "her current role as general counsel at Goldman Sachs, Ms. Ruemmler is co-chair of its reputational risk committee"...per WSJ) (LOL you can not make this stuff up) as administrative executor.
2014-2015 is also the time when Ms Nuland told the EU to "fork off" during the Ukraine Maidan biscuit sharing session, or such.
2015 is also the time when Mr Black fell out with his consenting Girlfriend, Ms Guzel Ganieva, after which, i suppose if i read it correctly, he felt the need to spend ~$2mn to get her a UK green card. Possibly, in my mosaic view, some terms were "breached" between Ganieva and Leon Black whereby he felt the need to pay reparations? Perhaps the neocons breaking out the Maidan war coup at the time was a part of the breach of contract between Ms Ganieva (who, we are now told was a Russian agent) and Mr Black.
Also, today Mr Black's former firm, Apollo, just privatised Aerospace Aluminum frame manufacturer Arconic.
The way i see it, after ruminating on these Epstein stories, Apollo is a big geopolitical power broker and fixer and go between for Anglo Imperial grand global strategy, for which Apollo extracts it's yield.
[As a private company, Arconic could be free to send aircraft materials to hidden places without disclosure. Eventually, i guess, Apollo will magically find a buyer to flip Arconic to in 4 years time or so.]

Epstein was a member of the liberal-fascist Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) and the Trilateral Commission before his fall from grace. Leon Black, Thomas Pritzker, and Mort Zuckerman mentioned in the WSJ article are long-time CFR members. Pritzker is also chairman of the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), a CFR affiliate. csis.org/people/thomas-j-pritzker
He may have been full blooded "American" but clearly he was flirting with Mossad and MI-6!
Think of the implication if Epstein is a spy being used simultaneously(!) by foreign agencies AND the US agency. Kompromat curated by Eppy is useful to the foreign agency to bring "American" intelligence assets "under their thumb", and vice-versa. However, for the US agency the cultivation of Kompromat on top class US entities is illegal. Nothing was done. Was there an understanding to meld all intelligence agencies into a single group-think agenda? Epstein cemented a certain cross border mind meld, this way!
Then there's Leon! Spending that many hours while CEO, with an intelligence asset that on one face, is compromising Americans!
3 wars: civil war, W Ukrainians trying to kill E Ukrainians, like Rwanda
End of WW2: Nato vs Russia with conventional arms (but it turns out Nato is quite unprepared for a conventional war in Poland or Ukraine!!)
US vs China (aka US vs Germany or EU)
The US wants to the world to split into 2 trading blocks, US block an China block and the history of the last decade is China befriending partners and US bullying them. Africa, ME and even some S AM have moved strongly to China. Smarter people in Europe want to do the same (Russia never had a choice).
So Ukraine is about blocking off Europe from future trade with China both physically (the chasm) and culturally. Huawei was just one of many earlier steps.
A Nato attack in the hope that Russia immediately take out Zelensky.
Interesting idea - it would certainly solve a lot of Nato problems - no Zelensky, a replacement Zelensky who might negotiate a peace "against the protests of Nato" - perfect.
Certainly all media, pro-Russia and pro-kiev seem to be convinced Russia will take him out soon.
If I were Zelensky I'd be very scared of returning to Kiev. Or going to UK or any of those countries that like to create fake spectacles like the Skripals.
He will go to the 'king' E3 ceremony, perfect place for Russia to retaliate killing both UK and UKR heads of State (joking of course, unfortunately) , the two responsible for this war and like Alex Says also for WWI WWII, as everybody knows A H did not won the 'euromillion lotto' to build from scratch the biggest army in the World in the 30's as Germany was bankrupted from WWI and Versailles..
It's also being suggested that a "fall-back" plan for the West would be to agree a settlement and accept Chinese proposals to be allowed to rebuild Ukraine. It is deemed unlikely that Putin would re-invade if it would mean the destruction of Chinese-owned infrastructure.
Some of this goes back to at least the "British" version of the Empire, where they always wanted to control the space between Asia and Europe and keep them separate. This was carried on thru "Neo-cons" in the US who were disciples of a couple of generations of Empire agents in the US. In Modern times it is definitely to stop BRI as well.
But IMO, and it is just an opinion, there is a millennium old hatred of Russia by the Empire. The Russians drove them off their homeland (Ukraine, SW Russia, Georgia) 1000 years ago. As they seized power in Europe, they financed armies to invade and destroy Russia many times.
Xi and Putin know this, and know exactly who they are fighting. They know what the Empire did to China and Russia. Their public statements in the previous years confirm this for me.
If the west loses in Ukraine, my guess is PMC Wagner has a new mission. And the Chinese will help.
Thank you NYC Mom - that was indeed an excellent discussion I quite enjoyed it. And we've even had more London news today: UK to supply Ukraine with long-range missiles. It's yet another desperate attempt to try and escalate the war so that all of NATO gets in on the carnage with the Brits leading from behind and licking their chops as Poles, Romanians, Bulgarians, Croats, Germans, Italians, Finns, Spaniards and Portuguese go to the eastern front. Barbarossa 2.0

Great feedback - thank you!!
It's possible that the real reason the west, Nato/US swooped into Ukraine was to keep China from waltzing in there first.
Real reason is to stop BRI.
Huge great chasm of chaos blocking the great Silk Road approach to Europe.
Chaos has always been the US end goal in Ukraine.
So this could actually be a proxy war between the US and China? That's some 4d chess right there.
Not quite, but Chinese leadership knows that if Russia falls, they're next.
3 wars: civil war, W Ukrainians trying to kill E Ukrainians, like Rwanda
End of WW2: Nato vs Russia with conventional arms (but it turns out Nato is quite unprepared for a conventional war in Poland or Ukraine!!)

Hey Alex, have you come across The Slavland Chronicles, also of this parish/platform? Radically different take.
No, but I'll check it oit - thanks for the tip!

Yes, exactly!
