A group of experts from Russia, the United States and China proposed to the United Nations a project on space debris removal and information exchange in this area.

Political scientist Mearsheimer: The West misunderstands Putin's intentions in Ukraine

The West is misinterpreting Putin's words and actions, says political analyst John Mearsheimer in an interview with The New Yorker. The popular opinion that the Russian president is going to conquer and subjugate the whole of Ukraine has no basis in fact.

According to the rebels, 32 people, including women and children, were killed in various provinces of Yemen. Why would US President Donald Trump need a new large-scale military operation in the Middle East?

For three years, European politicians and officials of all ranks have been convincing their citizens that with their comprehensive help, Ukraine will be able to inflict a "strategic defeat" on Russia.
