BRICS New Development Bank deal signed

“Russian President Vladimir Putin has signed a law ratifying the deal establishing the BRICS New Development Bank (NDB), according to a document published on Monday on Russia's official website for legal information.”

“The BRICS New Development Bank (NDB) was set up to challenge two major Western-led giants – the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund. NDB's key role will be to serve as a pool of currency for infrastructure projects within a group of five countries with major emerging national economies - Russia, Brazil, India, China and South Africa.”

“According to the Russian Finance Ministry, the New Development Bank is expected to start functioning fully by the end of the year, with the headquarters slated for opening in Shanghai. The chairmanship, with a term of five years, will rotate among the members.”

“It's hoped the new bank will stamp the growing influence of the BRICS. The NDB is expected to become one of the world's key institutions, with a stated capital of $100 billion. Each of the five-member countries is expected to allocate an equal share of the $50 billion startup capital that will be expanded to $100 billion. Russia has agreed to provide $2 billion from the federal budget for the bank over the next seven years.”

“The bank, which will be able to start lending in 2016, will be open to other countries that are members of the United Nations. The BRICS share is never to decline below 55 percent, however. The money will be used to finance development projects in the emerging economies.”


The BRICS walk fast towards an independent road, far from the absurd economic sadism of the West. Countries that have been attacked by the international financial mafia, like Argentina and Venezuela, are now see an alternative to the economic dead end and exclusion.

Greece could play the BRICS "card" alone, but it would be much easier to be done together with the rest of the PIIGS. A coordinated strategy by the PIIGS will probably force the eurocrats to retreat and make Europe to change course. Otherwise, there will be no alternative for PIIGS but to join BRICS!

Capitalism & Genocide - Yanis Varoufakis Speech at the Gaza Tribunal, 23rd October 2025, Istanbul

Yanis Varoufakis   On 23rd October, Yanis Varoufakis testified in front of the Jury of Conscience in the context of the Gaza Tribunal. His speech focused on the economic forces underpinning the genocide of the Palestinian people. In particular, he spoke on the manner in which capitalist dynamics have historically fuelled the white settler colonial project and, more recently, how the accumulation of a new form of capital - which he calls cloud capital - has accelerated, deepened and amplified the economic forces powering and propelling the machinery of genocide.

Munich Shock: Rubio’s Vision of a New Western Century & World Order

GVS Deep Dive   At the 2026 Munich Security Conference, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio delivered one of the most consequential foreign policy speeches of the year. Framed as a call for Western renewal, his address went far beyond NATO reassurance — outlining a vision of sovereignty, industrial consolidation, and civilizational confidence that may signal the end of the post-Cold War global order.   Is this the beginning of a Second Cold War?   Is the West reorganizing around bloc competition?   Or are we witnessing the construction of a new world order?

Billionaires are social distancing in super yachts as tens of millions lose jobs

Everyday, it becomes clearer: the COVID-19 pandemic is hitting poor, working, and marginalized communities the hardest. Millions of workers – especially low-wage retail, food service, hospitality, and care workers – have faced the terrible choice daily between going to work and risking their health, or staying home and risking their paychecks. Many other workers don’t even have that choice, with around 30 million people in the US filing for unemployment in the past six weeks. But billionaires don’t face these same problems. As tens of millions have lost their jobs over the past two months, billionaire wealth soared by a whopping $282 billion between March 18 and April 10, according to a new study from the Institute for Policy Studies.  And while finding enough space to wait out the pandemic is something many struggle with, billionaires have been escaping to their second (or third, or fourth) homes to ride it out in luxury – all while they position themselves to ...

A response to misinformation on Nicaragua: it was a coup, not a ‘massacre’

There is so much misinformation in mainstream corporate media about recent events in Nicaragua that it is a pity that Mary Ellsberg’s article for Pulse has added to it with a seemingly leftish critique. Ellsberg claims that recent articles, including from this website, often “ paint a picture of the crisis in Nicaragua that is dangerously misleading. ” Unfortunately, her own article does just that. It looks at the situation entirely from the perspective of those opposing Daniel Ortega’s government while whitewashing their malevolent behavior and downplaying the levels of US support they have relied on. Her piece is an incomplete depiction of what is happening on the ground, ignoring many salient facts that have come to light and which have been outdated by recent events. The following is a brief response to Ellsberg’s main points from someone who lives in Nicaragua and has observed the situation directly and intimately: https://grayzoneproject.com/2018/08/15/a-res...

Five reasons a war with Iran will mark the final fall of US empire

globinfo freexchange   1. The nature of war has changed dramatically since the Iraq war, due to technological developments. A ground invasion, especially against Iran, would be catastrophic for the US empire with unpredictable consequences, even if the regime-change mission successfully completed.  2. The Iran allies in the region are still active, despite their losses. This is connected with the first reason in a way because armed groups dispersed in the Middle-East and affiliated with Iran, can lead to an asymmetric, out-of-control conflict to the point where US forces may suddenly find themselves trapped in a wider deadly warzone with no exit. The new, relatively cheap technology of drones and small/middle range missiles, is easily accessible to these groups. The Ansar Allah group in Yemen, already demonstrated their ability to sabotage US military operations. 3. Iran is not Iraq. Not only due to its size and the fact that we live now in a very different period, but also be...

Η θύελλα έρχεται, Grexit τώρα!

globinfo freexchange Η εκστρατεία δαιμονοποίησης της πιθανότητας επιστροφής σε εθνικό νόμισμα συνεχίζεται αμείωτη, ακόμα και επί κυβέρνησης Τσίπρα. Η κυβέρνηση ΣΥΡΙΖΑ-ΑΝΕΛ είναι σίγουρο ότι δεν έχει την πραγματική εξουσία στη χώρα και αυτό φάνηκε τόσο από το οικονομικό πραξικόπημα Ντράγκι το περασμένο καλοκαίρι, όσο και από το γεγονός ότι επιβάλλονται στην παρούσα κυβέρνηση άνθρωποι σε θέσεις-κλειδιά, όπως για παράδειγμα ο τωρινός διοικητής της Τράπεζας της Ελλάδος, Γιάννης Στουρνάρας. Η προπαγάνδα της εγχώριας τραπεζομιντιακής δικτατορίας που διατηρεί ακόμα την πραγματική εξουσία, ως παράρτημα της Ευρωπαϊκής Χρηματοπιστωτικής Δικτατορίας (ΕΧΔ), δαιμονοποιεί με κάθε μέσο και με κάθε ευκαιρία, μέσα από τα γνωστά σενάρια ολέθρου, την πιθανότητα επιστροφής σε εθνικό νόμισμα. Όπως έχει επανειλημμένα τονιστεί σε παλαιότερα άρθρα, ο μόνος τρόπος για να σταματήσει η καταστροφική πορεία της χώρας, η οποία επιβάλλεται συστηματικά από τους μηχανισμούς της ευρω-δικτατορίας κ...
