Viktor Orban is on a roll.
And that has set out a riotous roller coaster.
Everyone has been gripped by the extraordinary spectacle of pre-historic specimens wallowing in the Western geopolitical swamp reaching the depths of Hysteriastan at the sight of the Hungarian Prime Minister's peace shuttle moving from Ukraine and Russia to China.
And to do that on the eve of the 75th anniversary of warmongering Global Robocop NATO has got to be the ultimate affront.
The 3-hour long
Putin-Viktor The Mediator meeting in Moscow was quite something. These are arguably Putin's three main points:
1.Kiev cannot allow the idea of a ceasefire because that would remove the pretext for extending martial law.2.If Kiev ends martial law, it will need to hold presidential elections. The chances of the current Ukrainian authorities winning are close to zero.3.There should not be a truce for additional Kiev weaponizing: Moscow wants a complete and final endgame.By comparison, these are arguably Orban's three main points:
1.The positions of Russia and Ukraine are very far from each other, much needs to be done.
2.The war in Ukraine has begun to have an impact on the European economy and its competitiveness (as much as the EU "leadership" may deny it).
3. "I heard what Putin thinks about the existing peace initiatives, the ceasefire and negotiations, and the vision of Europe after the war."
Orban also made a point of emphasizing the airtight pre-meeting secrecy, as
"means of communication are under total surveillance by the Big Boys".He described the search for a solution in Ukraine as his "Christian duty". And he said he asked three direct questions to Putin: whether peace talks are possible; whether a ceasefire before they begin is realistic; and what Europe's security architecture could look like.
Putin, said Orban, answered all three.
The clincher - not for the warmongers, but for the Global Majority - was Orban's description of Putin:
"All negotiations with him, he is always in a good mood - this is the first thing. Secondly, he is more than 100% rational. When he negotiates, when he begins to explain, when he makes an offer, saying yes or no, he is super, super rational. How else can you say it in Hungarian? Cool headed, reserved, careful and punctual. He has discipline. So it is a real challenge to negotiate with him and be prepared to match his intellectual and political level."

"Today NATO is stronger than it's ever been in its history," - Biden
Compared to non-NATO countries, many NATO countries are weaker and in its eagerness to expand it has managed to destabilize Europe to an unprecedented degree since WWII. If one takes another perspective, then NATO and the US has European countries and the EU under the foot. At the same time, there is the conflict in Gaza and just as the downing of MH17 over Eastern Ukraine on 17 July 2014 at the time served as a distraction from the mayhem Israel was working there, the conflict in Ukraine probably has to be kept going for the very same purpose, without negating that NATO and the forces behind it have interests in dismembering and subjugating Russia to exploit its resources, both human and material, and prevent the rise of a multipolar world.
