As Vladimir Putin rubs shoulders with Xi Jinping and Narendra Modi in Beijing, the West's failure to force Russia into peace in Ukraine has rarely been portrayed more starkly. Despite sanctions threats, neither China nor India has shown any sign of curtailing trade with Russia, and in response to Donald Trump's decision to single out Delhi for additional tariffs over its dealings in Russian energy, Prime Minister Modi appears to be looking elsewhere for diplomatic cover.To discuss how Moscow can benefit from strengthening these alliances, Victoria and Vitaly are joined by pre-eminent Russia expert, Fiona Hill, who is currently a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution - a Washington-based foreign policy think tank. She gives her take on the state of diplomatic efforts to end the conflict, and what the US and Europe might do next.You can fill out our audience questionnaire here: bit.ly/ukrainecastfeedbackToday's episode is presented by Victoria Derbyshire and Vitaly Shevchenko.

The US government has long tried to divide China, India, and Russia, but Washington's aggressive actions have only brought them together.

Ben Norton analyzes the important results of this historic meeting, and how the US empire's aggression has blown back.

Edition No239 | 02-09-2025 - Autocrats assemble. These are not nice people. Not kind people, nor generous or moral. They have reached the top of the pile in their respective countries, many of which are authoritarian or quasi authoritarian regimes. What does it take to achieve that, an to stay top of the pile for years, sometimes decades. For a start you must be the biggest bully in the playground, the most vicious fish in the pond. You may have had to dispose of rivals, - both authoritarian or democratic. Probably silence many journalists and critics. Subvert their legal systems and institutions of government. In a word, these people are the biggest C.U.N.T.S in their respective societies, most have no accountability to their populations, and some have thieved and raped their populations of resources and opportunities. Now, they have gathered in China, for the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation summit (SVO meets SCO).At the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) summit in Tianjin, we witnessed what can only be described as a global warm embrace of authoritarian regimes — even as the world burns from war, repression, and in Ukraine stolen children. At the heart of this embrace, Xi Jinping, Vladimir Putin, and Narendra Modi posed as a new triumvirate of international order, with cheering applause for Russia's war machine. But it is an alliance of disorder and death. ----------SOURCES: https://edition.cnn.com/2025/09/01/china/china-putin-xi-meeting-sco-summit-intl-hnkhttps://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/9/2/chinas-victory-day-military-parade-whos-attending-and-why-it-mattershttps://abcnews.go.com/International/north-koreas-kim-crosses-china-meet-xi-putin/story?id=125172027https://www.independent.co.uk/asia/east-asia/kim-jong-un-arrive-china-victory-parade-vladimir-putin-b2818199.htmlhttps://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/9/2/china-russia-pledge-new-global-order-at-shanghai-cooperation-summithttps://news.sky.com/story/chinese-russian-and-indian-leaders-seek-to-show-unity-and-push-for-new-world-order-in-beijing-meeting-13423244https://www.reuters.com/world/china/putin-thanks-xi-his-dear-friend-warm-welcome-china-2025-09-02/https://www.politico.eu/article/chinas-xi-welcomes-putin-modi-trump-roils-global-relations/----------Partner on this video: KYIV OF MINE 'Kyiv of Mine' is a documentary series about Ukraine's beautiful capital, Kyiv.

It's been more than 1,280 days since Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine. The death toll is unthinkable, peace talks are stuck and Trump's latest “summit” in Alaska hasn't shifted the dial.

With the West's ability to promote democratic transitions essentially dead, a struggle for influence is unfolding inside Bangladesh. Its traditional alliance with India is being replaced by a scramble for economic influence among China, Pakistan, the US, and Russia – none of whom are genuinely committed to promoting free elections inside the country. If you add in the fallout from the recent India-Pakistan war and Trump's tarriffs against India for importing Russian crude, you could say that a full-blown great game for South Asia is a foot. Amidst this backdrop, we return to our investigation of Bangladesh as a microcosm of the Global Enduring Disorder. There, a year ago Sheikha Hasina was removed by student protests. Since then the Nobel Laurate Mohammad Younis has been presiding over a caretaker government, which has pledged it will hold elections in February 2026. On today's pod, we will explore how the IG (interim government) in Bangladesh has essentially done all the same things that it accused the previous government of doing- locking up journalists, being repressive, taking over the economy, favouring cronies, and shying away from democratic reforms. They have said the election will be Feb but many analysts we spoke to don't believe them. We at the Disorder pod think it is equally our role to try to hold Bangladeshi politicians to account to honour their laws and commitments, just as we would do with Trump when he violates the constitution or tries to tamper with Federal Reserve Independence.  Being tough on developing world democracies is our sign of respect for them. To help guide the mega orderers on this journey, Jason is joined by Taufiq Rahim.

President Xi Jinping is holding bilateral talks with Russia's President, Vladimir Putin;

On this BONUS EPISODE of CASCADE OF HISTORY, Feliks Banel speaks with John Cox, bell ringer at Saint Spiridon Orthodox Cathedral in the Cascade neighborhood of Seattle, Washington. Sometime early on Sunday, August 31, 2025, thieves got away with three bronze bells, and Mr. Cox and others are trying to track down the bells before they're melted down for scrap. The parish at Saint Spiridon Orthodox Cathedral dates to the 1890s, and the current building was constructed in the 1930s. The bells are much more recent, but would be very difficult to replace - given they were made in Russia as part of an acoustically matched set of seven bells (four of which remain at the cathedal), and because the Russian invasion of Ukraine makes importing anything practically impossible. If you have any information about the bells stolen from Saint Spiridon Orthodox Cathedral, please call the Seattle Police Department. Thank you to Jean Sherrard for his assistance with this episode. CASCADE OF HISTORY is broadcast LIVE most Sunday nights at 8pm Pacific Time via SPACE 101.1 FM in Seattle and gallantly streams everywhere via www.space101fm.org. The radio station broadcasts from studios at historic Magnuson Park – located in the former Master-at-Arms' quarters in the old Sand Point Naval Air Station - on the shores of Lake Washington in Seattle.

Equity-index futures for Japan pointed to a modest gain after chip stocks pushed the Nikkei-225 index lower Monday. Contracts also indicated modest moves for Hong Kong and Australia. US equity-index futures edged lower with cash markets closed Monday for Labor Day. Investors will also be watching Japan's 10-year government bond auction Tuesday, which will be a key test of appetite amid growing expectations of rate hikes by the Bank of Japan and mounting political uncertainty. Stateside, Wall Street's record-breaking stock rally now faces a pivotal test, with jobs numbers, inflation data and the Federal Reserve's rate call all landing within the next three weeks. Tariff tensions and questions over the Fed's independence were also compounding the risks in September, historically the weakest month of the year for US markets. We look at the current market landscape with Michael Hartnett, Chief Investment Strategist at BofA Global Research. He speaks with Bloomberg's Shery Ahn and Avril Hong on The Asia Trade.Plus - Chinese President Xi Jinping secured an agreement from partner countries to set up a new development bank, realizing a longtime ambition in a display of Beijing's growing influence. Members of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization agreed to establish the institution, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi said Monday at the end of the two-day SCO summit that gathered Xi's closest international allies in the Chinese port city of Tianjin. In a joint declaration, member countries including India and Russia expressed opposition to unilateral coercive measures and vowed to facilitate trade within the group.

As Chicago suffers a violent, deadly Labor Day weekend, Mayor Brandon Johnson vows with an emergency order to refuse cooperation with ICE or other federal law enforcement efforts to clean up the Windy City. JB Pritzker calls the President's plan for a 30 day surge in Chicago policing a "Trump-led invasion."  Robert Mueller's Parkinson's diagnosis (that he's known about for 4 years) piques interest in whether the Russia collusion investigator is ducking out of testifying before House Oversight.

From Xi's authoritarian grip to Modi's nationalist illusions and Putin's thuggery, the show dives into the strongmen shaping global politics.Yaron will also tackle the decline of tourism, the mess of Chinese visas, the swamp of DC politics, and the economic insanity of minimum wage hikes. Across the Atlantic, the UK asylum crisis reveals the moral collapse of Western immigration policies.Plus, a fiery Q&A on crime stats, Trump's tariff obsession, Rand's cultural impact, drones vs. tanks, why Americans have AC but Europeans don't—and the deeper question of whether fear of independence defines today's culture.Key Time Stamps:02:35 Florence Reflections04:55 Tariff Lies38:35 Xi39:35 Modi47:40 Tourism51:45 Chinese Visas56:30 DC1:02:45 Min Wage1:08:35 UK AsylumLive Questions:1:37:58 What are the most positive trends in the world today?

As the world wonders what role the United States will play in global politics, the leaders of China, Russia and India gather to present a united front -- and a potential photo-op of the future. Late last night, an earthquake hit Afghanistan, killing hundreds and injuring thousands. An aid worker tells us about the moment the quake struck -- and about the devastation it's caused to families in the mountains, near the epicentre. A rare, lefty snail found in New Zealand needs another rare, lefty snail to reproduce. Ned's owner tells us about the nation-wide campaign to find one...before it's too late. Facing abominable approval ratings, Peru's Congress takes drastic action to turn things around -- by creating an adorable mascot named "Congresito".As It Happens, the Monday Edition. Radio that doesn't usually support a puppet government.

In true deadline day fashion we went to record a podcast and happened to bump into the deadline day legend himself Peter Odemwingie in the car park so invited him inside to record a podcast. We discover that is lot more than originally meets the eye going on behind the deadline day interview from dodgy agents, goalposts being moved & Roy Hodgson making sabotaging phone calls, Odemwingie tells his side of the story. On top of that Odemwingie talks about being a young pro and moving between Russia & Nigeria for much of his youth career with the ultimate goal of reaching the Premier League. Along the way he went to France and was facing European giants like Manchester United while getting changed in porter cabins.

The head of the European Central Bank, Christine Lagarde, fears that any intervention by US president Donald Trump's administration into the Federal Reserve could have wider implications and be a global economic risk. We hear from Dr Yu Jie, of Chatham House, on the significance of today's summit between China, India and Russia, as well as what a new development bank could look like. Elsewhere, Ed Butler discusses Trump's claims that Ethiopia's showpiece hydro-project, formally inaugurated this month, has actually been financed with American money. But the east African country say that's nonsense. And why a tiny Caribbean island is cashing in on its internet web name. The latest business and finance news from around the world, on the BBC.

Adam's Paternity Leave continues, so why not cross the jump right back to where the Randomizer kicked us out to immediately after we did the three-part mega-Cragenisode? Patreon payments are frozen for the time being. A few resourceful new Munchies have figured out a work-around where you can join as a free member and upgrade from there to a paid account which charges you for one month and unlocks the back catalog behind the respective tier of the paywall. After that first payment, you won't be charged again until we're dropping new content (which we'll warn everyone is coming), so if you want more of this it can be had, along with access to the fully uncut episodes from 100 to present and Movie Club episodes.Praise be to the SVU Gods and the Randomizer because this week's Munchstallment “Russian Brides” has it all. The seventh ep from Season 13 not only thrusts a rusty Captain Cragen into undercover duty for the first time since before Cabot and Amaro were born, but it also traumatizes you with way-too-specific details as to what our vic went through before perishing. Add to that the unrealized prospect of high-end koozies, the irony of nicknaming a neighborhood Odessa by the Sea when the O.G. Odessa is in fact by the sea, a journey into the daunting world of the vory v zakone, and the fact this this episode feeds directly into the huge three-parter we just spent the past three weeks poring over, and you've got the recipe for a very tasty Cragenisode with a blini and a heaping portion of Captain Don's bottomless pit of sorrow.Music:Divorcio Suave - “Munchy Business”Thanks to our gracious Munchies on Patreon: Jeremy S, Jaclyn O, Amy Z, Diana R, Tony B, Barry W, Drew D, Nicky R, Stuart, Jacqi B, Natalie T, Robyn S, Amy A, Sean M, Jay S, Briley O, Asteria K, Suzanne B, Tim Y, John P, John W, Elia S, Rebecca B, Lily, Sarah L, Melsa A, Alyssa C, Johnathon M, Tiffany C, Brian B, Kate K, Whitney C, Alex, Jannicke HS, Roni C, Nourhane B, Erin M, Florina C, Melissa H, and Olivia - y'all are the best!Be a Munchie, too!

Those who follow these things say they're never seen anything like it before. Donald Trump wants a Nobel prize and he's not shy about pushing for one. As The Bridge kicks off season six, our regular Monday contributor, Dr Janice Stein from the Munk School at the University of Toronto makes her view known on that, Ukraine, Russia, China and the Middle East. 

President Donald Trump said on Monday that India has offered to reduce its tariffs on U.S. goods to zero. Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform: "They have now offered to cut their Tariffs to nothing, but it's getting late. They should have done so years ago."Authorities confirmed that more than 800 people were killed and thousands more injured as a magnitude 6.0 earthquake struck southeastern Afghanistan late on Sunday. Rescuers are battling to reach remote, mountainous areas cut off from mobile networks along the Pakistani border, where many mud-brick homes collapsed in the quake.A European Union spokesperson said on Monday that the Global Positioning System of European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen's aircraft was jammed while en route to Bulgaria on Sunday, though it ultimately landed safely. Bulgarian authorities said they suspect Russia's involvement in the incident. The incident occurred while von der Leyen was on a four-day tour to EU member states in Eastern Europe.

Edition No238 | 01-09-2025 - Ukraine is hitting Russia where it hurts. Russian pipelines are going boom, queues for petrol are lengthening in Russia'a far east, and as time goes on, extending far further afield across the country. The Kremlin Tsar for life finds that Russia's size, thought to be an advantage that made it invulnerable to defeat, have now turned it into a brittle and vulnerable empire, practically indefensible. We'll unpack fresh strikes that threaten Moscow's fuel lifelines, meet Ukraine's new long-range “Flamingo” missile, and follow the spider silk of a campaign that's shredded Russia's aura of invulnerability. Has the siege of Moscow begun in earnest? Why Moscow's fuel supply is at risk – Russia's resources are not found in Moscow, but in its provinces – it's colonies. Moscow is a voracious consumer of energy, materials and resources, food, oil and gas. It drinks fuel through pipelines and refineries strung along hundreds of kilometers — particularly from Ryazan, a major refining hub that has repeatedly been hit since 2024–25. Independent reporting this spring noted the Ryazan refinery's output was halved or suspended after drone strikes; analysts warned that Moscow's downstream supply was unusually concentrated in a small number of chokepoints. One Ukrainian frontline report put it bluntly: Ryazan “supplies up to 50% of” the Moscow region's fuel needs.

Georgijs Ivanovs started the Ukraine Matters channel in 2007, and it has garners 11.5 m views. He started the channel to explain the situation surrounding the war in Ukraine in simple terms. Like myself, he is not Ukrainian, nor is he a military expert. But he has been to Ukraine many times and seen it almost fully (except for Odesa region). He has a lot of good friends in Ukraine, and in fact his wife is Ukrainian, and so feels extremely connected to the invasion that scaled up in February 2022. ----------DESCRIPTION: Ukraine's Crisis and Europe's Response: In-Depth Analysis with Georgijs IvanovsJoin us for a compelling discussion with Georgijs Ivanovs from the channel 'Ukraine Matters' as we delve into the complexities of the Ukraine-Russia conflict. In this episode, we discuss the assassination of a key Ukrainian political figure, the broader political and military implications, and the role of Europe and the US in supporting Ukraine. We also explore the strategic bombing campaign against Russia, the impact on the Russian economy, and the critical need for closing the Ukrainian skies. Don't miss out on Georgijs' invaluable insights into the ongoing war and Europe's evolving response.----------CHAPTERS: 00:00 Introduction and Welcome01:00 Tragic Assassination in Ukraine01:41 Ongoing Conflict and Security Concerns04:33 US Involvement and Trump's Impact10:24 Strategic Siege of Moscow18:33 Europe's Role and Strategic Independence27:02 Collaboration and Production Strategies31:05 Closing the Skies Over Ukraine36:31 Economic Pressures on Russia38:11 Conclusion and Final Thoughts----------SILICON CURTAIN FILM FUNDRAISERA project to make a documentary film in Ukraine, to raise awareness of Ukraine's struggle and in supporting a team running aid convoys to Ukraine's front-line towns.https://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extras----------SILICON CURTAIN LIVE EVENTS - FUNDRAISER CAMPAIGN Events in 2025 - Advocacy for a Ukrainian victory with Silicon Curtainhttps://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extrasOur events of the first half of the year in Lviv, Kyiv and Odesa were a huge success.
