Stalin’s Library by Geoffrey Roberts – a resumé and review – Part 2

Posted by: John Phoenix We continue Harpal Brar’s review of Geoffrey Roberts’ book on Stalin’s library, as Harpal had completed it in full before he died in January this year after only one instalment had been published (in the January/February issue). Space did not allow for continuation in the March/April issue, but we are now delighted to be able to continue the serialisation of this interesting work which will run to several parts. Stalin at work while in exile As he spent several years in exile, and opportunities for political activity were limited, it provided him with plenty of time for study. He spent much time in local libraries. In February 1912 he disappeared from his lodgings in Vologda (northern Russia), leaving behind his books on a variety of...

Russia and the DPRK’s military cooperation is anti-imperialism in action

Posted by: John Phoenix After months of gnashing of teeth and screaming by the imperialist press over mere rumours of DPRK military involvement in the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, the governments of the DRPK and Russia have calmly confirmed that indeed, north Korean troops have been operating in the Kursk region in Russia. The first stories breaking the ‘news’ that the two countries that had signed an agreement to defend each other had started, well, defending each other appeared towards the end of December of last year (‘North Korean soldier captured in Ukraine dies, reports say’, BBC online, 27 December 2024) with claims that Ukrainian forces had captured and injured ‘a north Korean soldier’. Kiev and Seoul (read imperialist compradors) suddenly claimed that ...

Russia’s victory in Kursk

Posted by: John Phoenix Report on the liberation of Kursk by the Chief of the General Staff of the Russian Armed Forces Valery Gerasimov to Comrade Supreme Commander-in-Chief, President Vladimir Putin. Valery Gerasimov: Today, we liberated the village of Gornal, the last populated area in the Kursk Region, from Ukrainian units. Units of the 22nd Motor Rifle Regiment of the 72nd Division, the 810th and 40th Separate Marine Brigades, the 177th Separate Marine Regiment and the 1427th Motor Rifle Regiment have particularly distinguished themselves in this regard. The defeat of the armed formations of the Ukrainian armed forces that invaded the Kursk Region has thus been completed. The plans of the Kiev regime to create a so-called strategic bridgehead and disrupt our ...

The “Three Seas Initiative” Will Play a Prominent Role in Post-Conflict Europe

Posted by: John Phoenix Russia considers it to be a series of military logistics projects sold to the public as economic ones. By Andrew Korybko Global Research, The 10th Summit of the “Three Seas Initiative” (3SI), which refers to the jointly Polish- and Croatian-founded platform for fostering Central European integration, concluded in Warsaw in late April. Their joint statement, the Ukrainian-relevant paragraphs of which Hungary disassociated itself from, declared that Spain and Turkiye will join the European Commission, Germany, Japan, and the US as strategic partners while Albania and Montenegro will join Moldova and Ukraine as associated participating states. Paragraph 13 reaffirmed the member states’ commitment to implementing six Three Se...

Shadows on the Border: Russia’s Military Posturing and the Specter of Escalation

Posted by: John Phoenix [This article by Prof. Ruel F. Pepa was first published by Global Research. You may read it here.] A palpable tension is tightening along Russia’s extensive frontiers with Finland, Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania. Satellite imagery and on-the-ground reports confirm a significant and ongoing military build-up, a stark demonstration of force that casts a long shadow over the Baltic region. While these deployments reportedly represent a minuscule fraction—less than one percent—of Russia’s total military might, their strategic implications are far-reaching and warrant serious consideration. Recent satellite analyses reveal that Russia is not only expanding its military infrastructure near the Baltic borders but also modernizing key installations. In...

Ukraine Timeline Tells the Tale

Posted by: John Phoenix The way to prevent the Ukraine war from being understood is to suppress its history. A cartoon version has the conflict beginning on Feb. 24, 2022 when Vladimir Putin woke up that morning and decided to invade Ukraine. There was no other cause, according to this version, other than unprovoked, Russian aggression against an innocent country. Please use this short, historical guide to share with people who still flip through the funny pages trying to figure out what’s going on in Ukraine. The mainstream account is like opening a novel in the middle of the book to read a random chapter as though it’s the beginning of the story. Thirty years from now historians will write about the context of the Ukraine war: the coup, the...
