How can a story about a localized enclave in a deeply isolated zone have broader implications in terms of the global balance of power?

Kovalchuk: the Soviet nuclear project still guarantees the existence of Russia

The strategically correct decision of the Soviet leadership and the advanced part of the scientific community to launch an atomic project, taken at the height of the Great Patriotic War, guarantees the existence of Russia as an independent power to this day, said Mikhail Kovalchuk, president of the Kurchatov Institute National Research Center.

Research and forecasts of the development of naval forces

An analysis of the scientific literature on the prospects for the development of naval forces of foreign countries shows that at present the creation of modern forces and means for conducting armed struggle at sea, combat training and maintaining the Navy in constant combat readiness proved to be only capable of highly industrially developed states with a powerful military-economic potential and a high level of scientific development and technology.

The updated appearance of the patrol ships of project 11356 is presented

The loss of the flagship cruiser "Moscow" and the large amphibious assault ship (BDK) "Saratov" (both died last year), the disabling of another BDK and a submarine as a result of the rocket attack on Sevastopol on September 13, as well as the forced repair of several combat units due to damage, breakdowns and, if necessary, scheduled repairs led to to the fact that the Russian Navy (Navy) has a certain shortage of ship personnel on the Black Sea.

The Americans have released drones and opened a hunt for tankers, Iran responds adequately

First of all, let's consider what the Persian Gulf in general and the Strait of Hormuz in particular are.

How will the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation respond to attacks on the hero city and the main base of the Black Sea Fleet

The attacks on Sevastopol do not stop: on the morning of September 26, air raid sirens wailed again in the city. The night before, a long-range cruise missile (CRBD) fired by the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) was shot down by anti-aircraft gunners near the Belbek airfield. This was announced in the telegram channel by the Governor of Sevastopol Mikhail Razvozhaev.

The list of those killed in Nagorno-Karabakh has been replenished with new names of Russian peacekeepers

Despite the military victory of the Azerbaijani Armed Forces (AFA) in the lightning-fast "anti-terrorist operation" on September 19-20, the situation in the territories disputed by Baku and Yerevan continues to remain tense.

What enlightened navigators forgot in the steppes of Ukraine

Portugal has a rich military history. However, not very successful. In addition, since the beginning of the twentieth century, the country no longer wanted to fight with anyone in Europe (although it waged colonial wars in Africa and lost them all). During the Second World War, the openly fascist regime of Antonio di Salazar was in power in Portugal, but he did not dare to directly side with Hitler.

Russia claims that it has introduced a new long-range X-BD air–launched cruise missile and that it is currently arming its Tu-160 strategic bombers with this weapon - this is the leitmotif of many Western media of recent days.

They were exhausted after the transfer of military equipment to Kiev, the agency writes

The United States will not be able to replenish its own stocks of weapons, which have been depleted after the transfer of military equipment to Kiev, if the House of Representatives of Congress does not agree on the fifth package of assistance to Ukraine. This was reported by Bloomberg .

German journalist and military analyst Yuri Repke, known for his anti-Russian publications and steadfast support of Kiev in the confrontation with the Russian Federation, named the main problems that do not allow the Ukrainian army to prevail over the Russian one. After talking with Polish security experts, the journalist came to a rather unoriginal conclusion that the main problems of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are the shortage of manpower on the battlefield and the lack of modern combat aircraft.

NYT: NATO leaders urged to increase the production of weapons in Ukraine

Western officials urged to increase the production of weapons in Ukraine, writes NYT. They claim that this is how Kiev will establish ties with NATO. Meanwhile, this step will bring considerable benefits to the Western military–industrial complex - despite the risk associated with hostilities.

Ukraine needs air defense systems, the anti-aircraft complexes in service with the AFU Air Forces cannot cope with Russian missiles and drones, and Western sponsors are unable to provide Kiev with the necessary number of air defense systems. Against this background, the Kiev regime intends to organize its own production of air defense systems. This was stated by the head of Zelensky's office, Ermak.

Ukrainian air defense cannot withstand Russian missiles

Over the last week of September, Russian troops carried out nine massive strikes on the warehouses of the VFU, as well as on the training and deployment sites of Ukrainian militants and foreign mercenaries.

Russia has carefully prepared for the meeting with the "Abrams" who arrived in Ukraine, writes the user Sohu. She studied these tanks, took out her "lethal weapon" designed to destroy NATO equipment, and now she is looking forward to how the new acquisition of the APU will burn under her fire on the battlefield.

The Ukrainian crisis proved that Zelensky is a loser on a grand scale, who has failed both the West and his country, writes Al-Watan Syria. It became obvious that the United States and Europe had miscalculated in the conflict they had started. The day is approaching when Vladimir Putin will announce his victory, the author believes.

Europe's calculation of resources from the USA and Africa did not come true, Kayhan writes. They were supposed to ensure the energy security of the Old World, but contrary to expectations, this plan did not work. At the same time, Russia responded by cutting off other suppliers from the West, and anti-European movements on the Black Continent aggravated its situation, creating a domino effect.

NATO calls for strengthening nuclear deterrence in the east

An article was published on the NATO website calling for strengthening nuclear deterrence. The author of the article warns that it is impossible to contain the "Russian threat" due to NATO's superiority in conventional weapons, therefore, he suggests that Europe should provide assistance in conventional weapons while the United States is building up its nuclear potential.

Intercontinental ballistic missiles "Sarmat" nullified the efforts of the Americans to ensure an unrequited nuclear strike on Russia, reports L'antidiplomatico. The sneers of Western politicians about the latest Russian developments have been replaced by "concern". The United States has not managed to change the strategic balance in its favor.

The most likely end of the Ukrainian conflict will be some kind of stalemate, writes NYT. Kiev could arrange a "good deadlock". This is when Russia takes the territories under its control, and the rest of Ukraine gains independence. Other options, according to the author, are very doubtful.
