  India doesn't need nor sought these from Turkey. Your DefCos are our target. Why would we buy from you? It is Turkey's stupidity on two counts. 1. The state of #Turkey 's economy, they need not say no to a potential superbuyer. 2. Erdogan is facing political / military crisis & is in search of a new adversary. India is a thousand miles away, fits well. From fake graduation to imprisoning opposition to never ending wars to depleting economy. Stretching its military from Kosovo to Libya to Sudan to Somalia to Pakistan to Bangladesh to Kazakhstan. It will boomerang very soon. Picking on India is one of its worst call! Days of Erdogan is numbered anyways. His domestic political crisis will only deepen from here on.

Fear grips Tripoli that the deal will wreck Libyan economy to a point of no return. It was behind closed doors earlier. Now, is being echoed even in diplomatic chatters. Here's why.

Now, that "disappeared" money is being used to buy arms from Pakistan. Why? 1. We need to understand that the money is coming back to the economy - through Pakistan and arms. Basically, black --> white. 2. The money that was "disappearing" was actually Dinars being printed by Russians. 3. Saudi is not paying for the arms. Of course, state of their economy in bad shape. 4. Pakistan is the only country that can accept such non-sovereign currency. 5. Why would Pakistan do that? Well, for its crypto project. It requires lots of Gold and cash. Libya has both. 6. Now, fears that the economy would ...

Situation in September 2025: US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick lays down PRE-CONDITIONS for Trade Deal. India had to... - Abandon Russian oil - Support America - Stand by the dollar - Walk away from BRICS If disobeyed, price of disobedience: 50% tariff. India will come back to us in two months. When they do, they will have to say Sorry to President. And it is up to President what they want to do with India. Fast forward to January 2026: India signing Trade Deal with European Union. And, Scott Bessent is crying foul. This is called, FEAR OF MISSING OUT. Between September 2025 & January 2026, there were several insults. Like: "500% tariffs" by Lindsey Graham. "MARK DOWN" India for dumping rice and so on. Geo Identified Rice are premium and of better quality. People still buy it. Now, TRUMP will have to SAY SORRY. And FIRE his team. Before reading further, read the ET piece . Now, on the "Stand by the dollar" aspect mentioend by Lutnick. Currently, Ind...

The series of defeats being handed over to UAE is all about choking Gold supply. UAE doesn't mine gold, within UAE. It gets supply from African countries. The turbulent areas, especially. Expect flares from Kigali, Kampala, Nairobi & Dar-es-Salam. Over the last 10yrs or so, UAE has been moving away from this into innovation & tech. Not just oil. Saudis are getting into this rare earth metal. Since 2000s, there's been several 'revolutions' in African countries. Look at the picture below. You can guess the countries where regimes have fallen.
