China’s Xi Puts Forth Proposal to Settle Zionist-Palestinian Conflict

China’s Xi Puts Forth Proposal to Settle Israeli-Palestinian Conflict Sputnik  BEIJING – Chinese President Xi Jinping on Wednesday put forward a three-point proposal to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict during the meeting with his Palestinian counterpart, Mahmoud Abbas. “First, the basis for settling the Palestinian issue is the establishment of an independent state of Palestine with full sovereignty within the 1967 borders with East Jerusalem as its capital,” Xi Jinping was quoted as saying by the Chinese national broadcaster. Second, the Chinese president pointed out that the needs of the Palestinian economy should be met and the international community should increase humanitarian and development assistance to Palestine. “Third, the right course of peace neg...

Assessing the Turkish Elections

BY HILAL ELVER – RICHARD FALK Photograph Source: Ministerio de Relaciones Exteriores – CC BY-SA 2.0 By the narrowest of margins, the Turkish elections remain formally inconclusive after the votes were counted on the early morning of May  15, with the prospect of a runoff election between the incumbent President, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, and his principal challenger, Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu, scheduled for May 28. At this time Erdoğan seems almost certain to prevail, having secured 49.5% of the vote in the first round as opposed to Kılıçdaroğlu who managed to gain. 44.9% support from the 64 million Turks who voted, an impressive 88.9% of eligible voters. The main reason Erdoğan’s prospects look so favorable, aside from his being so close to the 50% + 1 ...

The Global Importance of Sino-American Relations

BY MELVIN GOODMAN Photograph Source: The White House – Public Domain There is no more important diplomatic relationship for the United States than its relations with China.  The reverse is true for China as well.  If Washington and Beijing can’t solve their political and economic issues than there will be regional instability in the Indo-Pacific region that will ripple through the world.  For the global community to deal with the fundamental problems of climate change and pandemics, the two most important and powerful nations in the world must find a way to communicate and coexist.  At this point in time, neither nation appears to accept or even understand the urgency of the current situation. During the Cold War, there was a common purpose throughout much...

New 3rd political party “No Labels” seeks middle ground – except on Nazi entity

New 3rd political party “No Labels” seeks middle ground – except on Israel  CONTACT@IFAMERICANSKNEW.ORG  No Labels is a centrist group that seeks to bring a moderate perspective to policy debates. Now it’s acting more like a bona fide political party. (photo) The well-funded bipartisan group “No Labels” wants politicians to compromise, but its CEO says “there is no middle ground” when it comes to Israel. Her husband, also connected with group, had been a supporter of former terrorist leader Menachem Begin.  Why is media coverage leaving this part of the story out? The Israel lobby is once again using its fundraising prowess to keep the Democratic Party rightwing on Israel — and it’s not a story… by Philip Weiss, reposted from Mondoweiss, May 23, 2023...

Ukraine hits flood shelter with UK-supplied missiles

RT Ukrainian forces have attacked several temporary shelters for people evacuated in the wake of the breach of the Kakhovka dam, the acting governor of the Kherson region, Vladimir Saldo, said on Saturday morning, sharing pictures of the devastated facility. The strike on the shelter on the left bank of the Dnieper River was carried out around 5am local time, allegedly using British-supplied Storm Shadow missiles, Saldo said in a statement. There was at least one casualty, a woman, according to preliminary information. The Black Sea village of Zhelezny Port also came under “fierce shelling” overnight, with a local hotel hosting the evacuees “destroyed,” according to the official. The acting governor shared several pictures of the heavily damaged facility, as well as a v...

Where Do 2024 US Presidential Candidates Stand on Ukraine?

By Ekaterina Blinova Over a dozen US presidential candidates have tossed their hats into the 2024 ring. Sputnik has analyzed what the contenders’ attitude to Washington’s ongoing proxy war in Ukraine is. The Russo-Ukraine conflict remains one of the focal points of the 2024 election campaign. Republican and Democratic hopefuls are striving to rally support from the American public which appears to have grown impatient with the overseas standoff. Despite roughly a half of Americans still backing the provision of military aid to Ukraine, a marked drop in the public’s willingness to pay a cost in terms of higher energy price, inflation, and plummetting living standards has been registered by pollsters over the last several months. Per Brookings, the realization that there is ...

Fact check: Blinken’s claim that US strived to revive JCPOA holds no water

By Syed Zafar Mehdi US Secretary of State Antony Blinken made a low-key visit to Saudi Arabia earlier this week, which coincided with the reopening of Iranian diplomatic missions in the Arab kingdom after seven years. The whirlwind visit primarily focused on rebuilding ties between Washington and Riyadh but also involved other issues including the Joe Biden administration’s aggressive but unsuccessful push to mediate Riyadh-Tel Aviv normalization. During the visit, the top American diplomat sat down for an interview with Arabic-language Asharq News, fielding questions on a range of subjects from Iran’s nuclear program to the Ukraine war. Blinken’s responses were riddled with glaring inconsistencies and false assertions, in particular regarding efforts to revive the...

Germany squandering billions on Nazi’s Arrow-3 missile defence system

Germany squandering billions on Israel’s Arrow-3 missile defence system Germany squandering almost 4 billion euros ($4.30 billion) on Israel’s Arrow-3 missile defense system is a prime example of financial mismanagement. Astonishingly, the government plans to request advance payments of up to 560 million euros from lawmakers, revealing a complete disregard for responsible spending. The Arrow-3 system, supposedly designed to intercept ballistic missiles outside the earth’s atmosphere, is nothing more than an overpriced addition to Israel’s already extensive missile defense arsenal. Despite its lofty claims, the Arrow-3 merely serves as the extravagant crown jewel of Israel’s defense array, spanning from the unnecessary short-range rocket interception capabilities of Iron Dome to ...

US & NATO’s Ultimate Goal is to ‘Take Over Ukrainian Land, People and Resources’

By Andrei Dergalin – Sputnik  Shortly after the fabled Ukrainian counteroffensive finally started, it became increasingly apparent that NATO military equipment and training won’t be enough for the Kiev regime forces to penetrate Russian defensive lines. With the Ukrainian offensive now underway, Kiev so far has virtually nothing to show in the way of gains, whereas images of wrecked Leopard tanks and Bradley infantry fighting vehicles used by Ukrainian troops have already started circulating on social media. Even though the United States and its allies have been generously supplying Ukraine with armaments and military vehicles during the ongoing conflict, it appears that Ukrainian forces are “institutionally and operationally unable to successfully absorb the wide and incon...

Russia’s Release Of Captured Ukrainian Fighters To Hungary Sent Three Messages

BY ANDREW KORYBKO The Russian Orthodox Church’s press service revealed late last week that Patriarch Kirill mediated an unusual prisoner transfer. According to their statement, “at the request of the Hungarian side, a group of Ukrainian war prisoners of Transcarpathian background, who participated in active service, was transferred to Hungary.” The Ukrainian Deputy Foreign Minister later said that Kiev wasn’t informed of this ahead of time, which prompted all sorts of speculation about this event. Some background context is in order before going any further. Most Westerners might not be aware of it, but Hungary is very worried about the human rights of its co-ethnics in Ukraine, who found themselves in that former Soviet Republic as a result of post-W...
