US and UK military are the world biggest polluters

BY: Leonid Savin PEJOURNAL - You don’t have to be a professional environmentalist to see how Washington and its G7 partners pay lip service to environmental protection. We are constantly hearing about the “green” initiatives under the Paris climate agreement and the need to reduce carbon dioxide emissions in the atmosphere. There is even talk of the need to introduce quotas for states. It is logical to assume that if the US has committed itself to restrictions, then it should do so in practice. Even the United States Defense Department is focusing on environmental issues. On 7 October 2021, the…

EU, NATO and the challenges for a foreign policy and community defense policy

BY: Paolo Mauri Translated BY: Costantino Ceoldo PEJOURNAL - The need to adopt a common defense and foreign policy has strongly returned to the agenda of the European Union. The triggering cause, or if we want “the straw that broke the camel's back”, was the unilateral management by the United States of the withdrawal from Afghanistan, which essentially excluded the Allies belonging to NATO from the decision-making processes of the Kabul evacuation operation. The prodromes of this renewed need had been advanced, as we well know, by French President Emmanuel Macron, who earlier this year stated that Europe needed “strategic…

China’s new hypersonic missile test

PEJOURNAL - In August, a Chinese rocket carried a projectile into space. That projectile, reported by US intelligence agencies as a missile and by China as a reusable space vehicle, fell into an orbit, circled the globe, and then glided into a spot about 24 miles away from its original target. The launch represents a demonstration of a new capability for China, the revitalization of an old technology, and a complicated way to bypass existing missile defenses. While the speed and the gliding are notable parts of the system China launched, what most stands out is the specific trajectory it…

Major US oil companies face grilling by Congress

Washington’s doubts about the new strategic relations between China and Russia

BY: William Holmes PEJOURNAL - The US President Joe Biden is looking at Russia in the conflict with China, and with major coalition-building, bilateral sanctions, he is further restricting the close ties between Beijing and Moscow. For Europeans in Russia's neighborhood too, the question has been raised over the years that it does not make sense for the Western world to impose sanctions on Russia so that Moscow moves farther away from Europe and rushes to Beijing. Looking at the geopolitics of the region and the fiery points of Europe in the Baltic, Balkan and Crimean regions; It is understandable…

The defeat of US military power in the Crusades against Muslims in the Middle East

BY: Mohammad Ghaderi PEJOURNAL - Gradually, the voice of the US military power is becoming broken, which is heard today from Kabul Airport surrendering the world’s largest military power. The military, the world’s largest and most powerful army, is not even able to withdraw its troops from Afghanistan under normal circumstances, despite an agreement with the Taliban. This military defeat is not the only internal source to be sought in the divisions of American political identity and fragmented society. Numerous factors for this failure must be traced to the history and strategic mistakes of the United States over the past…
