Владислав Сотировић: Порекло Албанаца?

Written by: Dr Vladislav Sotirović

У званичним научним круговима данас постоје две струје које заступају опречна мишљења по питању етничког порекла Албанаца, тј. како сами себе називају – Шћипетара:

1) Или да воде директно порекло од (преживелих и неасимилованих) балканских староседелаца Илира (након сеобе Словена на Балкан).
2) Или да су пореклом са Кавказа (дакле дошљаци а не староседеоци).

Western analysts support NATO’s direct participation in Ukraine

By Lucas Leiroz, journalist, researcher at the Center for Geostrategic Studies, geopolitical consultant.

Western analysts are encouraging NATO’s direct participation in the conflict. On July 8, foreign affairs commentator Simon Tisdall published an article in The Guardian called „Defeat for Ukraine would be a global disaster. Nato must finally step in to stop Russia„. He argues that Ukraine’s entry into NATO should be accelerated, with a process similar to the one that guaranteed Finland’s accession. According to him, this is the proper way to avoid Kiev’s defeat and the failure of the „counteroffensive“, since the direct support of the alliance supposedly would make a Ukrainian victory possible.

Turkey makes a mistake by releasing Ukrainian neo-Nazis

By Lucas Leiroz, journalist, researcher at the Center for Geostrategic Studies, geopolitical consultant.

The Turkish government violated a deal it had with the Russian Federation and freed Ukrainian neo-Nazi prisoners, sending them back to Kiev. The measure is extremely dangerous, as it shifts Ankara to a more active pro-Washington and pro-Kiev position in the current conflict. With this, Turkey becomes unable to provide a place for talks and negotiations, in addition to reinforcing its rivalries with Moscow.

War And War Crimes: A Very Short Academic Approach

By Dr. Vladislav B. Sotirovic

After WWII, there was a growing number of significant non-state actors in international relations (IR) like the OUN or various specialist agencies connected to it. Nevertheless, two key developments stimulated the growth of such organizations after WWII:

А. The realization that building cooperation and collective security was a much wider task than merely deterring aggressors in traditional attacks on fixed international order. It, therefore, involved finding ways of agreeing on international policy in a variety of practice areas.

B.  The increasing coverage of international law includes new foci, including, human rights, social justice, natural environment, and regarding warfare – war crimes.

Спомена Милачић: СРПСКИ АМЕРИЧКИ САН – ЈУТРО ПОСЛЕ

Пише: Спомена Милачић

Био је то тоталитаризам са америчким ликом. Ултралиберално друштво са растућим конзумеризмом уз централизовану привреду и политички коректан строго контролисани јавни говор. Први значајни корак тог политички подобног јавног (па и приватног) говора отпочео је Тито својим громогласним (и са Американцима већ унапред договореним) дистанцирањем од Стаљина. Црвена армија је била заборављена (и у уџбеницима) а ми смо, премда несврстани (и заправо скупа са њима) постали земља под јаким америчким утицајем, не толико у унутрашњој политици (НКВД) колико када је реч о спољњој политици.

Kiev lies by accusing Russia of crimes against Zaporozhye nuclear power plant

By Lucas Leiroz, journalist, researcher at the Center for Geostrategic Studies, geopolitical consultant.

The Ukrainian government is repeatedly telling lies about the attacks on the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant (ZNPP). The president of the regime made new unproven accusations against the Russian side about sabotage of the ZNPP, ignoring that it is his own troops that have been promoting terror in the area of the plant. As expected, the western media reports the neo-Nazi leader’s words as if they were true, leading the public opinion to believe that Moscow is deliberately trying to generate radioactive leakage in Zaporozhye.
