Navalny: democracy in Russia in peril?

On February 16 at 2:17 PM at the Arctic Wolf penitentiary in Siberia, Alexie Navalny was pronounced dead. The cause of his death was said to be ‘sudden death syndrome’, whatever that is. Western leaders were quick to point the finger at Russia and Putin in particular, proclaiming “Democracy in Russia is dead!” The question is, who really benefits from his death? And how, really, did he die? Astrology can give us clues to the latter. As to the former, the answers should be fairly obvious for anyone who has followed Russia’s relations with the West.

Novorossiya reconstituted?

“There are decades where nothing happens; and there are weeks where decades happen.” (Vladimir Lenin)

From the Libra equinox to the 27th of September four oblasts in present-day Ukraine voted on whether or not to secede from Ukraine and join the Russian Federation. The result was almost unanimous in all four: Thus starts the breakup of Ukraine. Those regions are now a part of Russia, from 30 September, whether the West accepts it or not.

But, before Russia and Putin critics get too excited, the establishments in the Western nations are not going to like what happens next. After years of being ignored, vilified, ostracized and threatened by the West – by the US and UK especially – Russia has decided now to think of herself first, of her citizenry, and is pulling away from globalism as it has existed in these past years, as well as from entanglements with neoliberal economics and the ‘rule of law’ as put forward by the West. Expect for demonization of Russia and all sorts of wild speculation to spike now in the Western press. “Putin has weaponized Russian sovereignty!” Continue reading “Regime change has come to Russia!”
