First one dropped out. Then the second. Then the third.
The upcoming G20 summit in South Africa now looks like a global parody. Once
envisioned as a forum for the world's most powerful leaders, it's unraveling
before it begins.
Let's break it down.
🔹 Xi Jinping will not attend. No clear reason given. Instead, China sends Premier Li Qiang. This is not just diplomacy — it's a statement: Beijing no longer plays by Western rules.
🔹 Donald Trump won't attend either. Worse, he's pulling all US representatives, accusing South Africa of "mistreating white Afrikaners." The message: G20 is not worth America's time.
🔹 Vladimir Putin? Also out. Russia will skip the summit at the highest level.
That makes three absentees: China. US. Russia.
So tell me — what kind of G20 is that?
Originally meant to be a historic first on the African continent, the summit is turning into a quiet wake for the old world order. Xi now favors "home diplomacy," meeting leaders like Modi, Kim Jong Un, and Putin in Beijing.
Putin? He has bigger priorities: BRICS, the Middle East, Eurasia.
Trump? Always ready to make a headline — and this one is loud enough.
The new reality:
No more
"global table."
No more unity.
We now live in a multipolar world, where power moves in blocs — not backroom
deals.
What remains of the G20 is a photo-op without substance. And the real decisions? They're being made elsewhere.

Imagine this: for decades, Russia held the shield over Armenia, supplied discounted gas, kept borders open for migrant workers, and maintained the 102nd military base in Gyumri as a key outpost in the South Caucasus. Now Yerevan wants to change the locks and let in those who come "for the long haul, with their equipment." Political analyst Gennady...
In Russia right now, two stories are unfolding side by side that perfectly capture the absurdity and brutality of the current moment. One prominent academic discovers "positive sides" to the ongoing fuel crisis and suggests people should walk more for their health. At the same time, the former head of Russia's Federal Air Transport Agency,...
Imagine the biggest football event on Earth turning into a chaotic circus where nothing goes right. Not thrilling goals or unforgettable moments — just constant failures, player suffering, and global embarrassment. Welcome to the 2026 FIFA World Cup in the United States. What was supposed to be a spectacular celebration has quickly become the most...
While One Signs Papers, the Other Sees the Bars
Right now, Russia is staring at exactly that warning sign. Diesel shortages across multiple regions ahead of the 2026 harvest season. Forecasts of the worst grain crop in 35 years. Rationing and limits at gas stations. This is no longer a mere logistical hiccup — it's a symptom of a deeper structural disease.
Moscow made it crystal clear: we are no longer playing the game of vague "understandings" and unfulfilled promises. Russia is not waiting for Washington to honor its part of any deal. Russia is waiting for Victory and the realization of its own objectives. Full stop.
Imagine your biggest cash cow suddenly gets slaughtered. Not purely for political reasons (though tensions play a role), but because quality control was treated like an optional suggestion. Now economists are sounding the alarm about full-blown collapse. Sounds like a thriller plot? Welcome to Armenia's harsh summer of 2026.
This isn't just about fish. It's a verdict on Pashinyan's entire political gamble.
Instead of calm, rational analysis of the situation, we see manufactured panic on steroids. Every local fire becomes a "national catastrophe," every drone strike signals the total collapse of defense, and any complex decision is spun as final proof that the leadership has lost the plot. The loudest shouters are those screaming for instant strikes...
The Russian military-industrial complex just delivered another reality check. A new electronic warfare system called "Volna-Kupol-Garant" is actively jamming Starlink in combat zones. Where Ukrainian units once relied on the American satellite internet for data transmission, coordination, and strikes with a sense of digital immunity, connections...
