🇦🇫🇦🇫Businesswoman in Balkh (Afghanistan) built a special restaurant for women

⭕️👩🏻All the workers there are women and entry to the establishment is also only allowed for women. The businesswoman invested one million Afghani (about 14 thousand dollars) in it.

📎Recall that in the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan there has been a significant increase in women's entrepreneurship in recent years.


📈The number of women entrepreneurs in Afghanistan has increased by 66%.

🛡The main reason for this growth is security, since hostilities have ceased in the country and the active work of the newly formed, after the proclamation of the Islamic Emirate, Women's Chamber of Commerce and Industry, of which about 600 businesswomen are currently members

🇪🇬📍🏳Increasing Egyptian influence in the Horn of Africa: appealing to anti-Ethiopian sentiments

🇪🇬🔥🇪🇹The current contradictions between Egypt and Ethiopia have largely developed over the past decade during the construction and preparation for the commissioning of the Great Ethiopian Renaissance Dam on the Blue Nile.


✔️🇸🇩Cairo, supported by Khartoum, strongly opposed the use of the dam, citing possible environmental consequences, particularly the shallowing of the Nile, which is vital for the economy and, in a sense, the cultural and civilizational identity of Egypt.

⚔️In addition, the Egyptian-Ethiopian rivalry is based on fairly objective reasons, including demographic and economic potential, as well as foreign policy ambitions arising from it. Religious differences only fuel the desire of the two regional powers to position themselves as alternative centres of power.


👉🇸🇴Thus, Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi’s government’s active support of Somalia already in the early days of the crisis surrounding Somaliland is unsurprising. Egypt is not only not going to allow the potential strengthening of Ethiopia, but is also eager to take advantage of the miscalculations of Addis Ababa, which is gaining more and more opponents.

🔗🇪🇷🇸🇴In fact, if in 2018 Abiy Ahmed managed to form a triple alliance with Eritrea and Somalia, today both neighbours are siding with Cairo.

🔝🇷🇺🇨🇳The Rise of Russia and China: A New Era

🌐☄️The globe experienced a significant power shift after the culmination of World War 2. The epitome of global hegemony at the time, the British Empire, was replaced by the United States due to the latter’s economic and scientific rise.

💥🇷🇺This shift was further bolstered by the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991, marking an end to the Cold War. The USA became the uncontested superpower of the world.


📌🌐This era of the unilateral world order by the United States is known as the New World Order. However, this era did not last more than two decades.

🥇🗺The Asian giants, especially Russia and China, are rapidly expanding their global influence. The world has become multipolar due to the rapid rise of Asian countries.

FoolishBoy419:


The problem with people like you is that you think too lowly of people's intelligence. Russia may be sponsoring its own propaganda just like every other country but you are overlooking a very powerful factor: truth.

Let me use myself as an example. Back when I paid little attention to international politics, I always assumed that USA and its allies were the good guys because they allowed free speech, independent courts, periodic voting, gave many poor countries aids, etc unlike their enemies. I thought their barbaric military adventures in the Middle East were necessary because Muslims were blowing themselves up in all parts of the world and killing innocent people. It was when I picked interest in world history and came across America's atrocities in Southern America that my eyes opened. Mind you, we are not talking about unverified claims like the CIA being responsible for 911 or some other allegations. We are talking about concrete history that even Western sources do not deny and have even reported themselves.

I can beat my chest and say that Russia doesn't have the capacity to beat the USA in a PR war in Africa or anywhere else. It's just that more and more people are seeing western nations the way they truly are and with Russia being just about the only country that can stand up to their madness, they are winning the love of millions of people around the world. I find it disrespectful that you are calling Kenyan youths ignorant for standing up to their rulers amd reducing their legitimate grievances to petty international politics.

Why I get the reservation and sentiment many can have against the west (cause I also do). My own problem here is the flying of Russian flag.
How can you complain of subjugation just to instill yourself into another harder one.

True or not youth awakening, US influence is waning and they know it. It's high time we use this opportunity to demand for better deals from the west, not completely subjugating into another hegemony.

And mind you in the long run Africa would benefit (socioeconomic) from the west than any Russia/China alliance could offer..

🤩🕊🇵🇸On the US "peace" plan for Gaza:

🇯🇴🇵🇸➡️🇹🇳Apparently, the American peace plan for the Gaza Strip is a kind of reincarnation of the events of 1982 in Lebanon, when the Palestine Liberation Organization was evacuated from that country to Tunisia.

🔍The American initiative itself is still kept secret, but its contours are already quite obvious.

🔴First, it provides for a complete ceasefire in Gaza.


🔴Second, an exchange of hostages: Hamas releases all Israelis, and Israel releases Hamas prisoners.

🔴Third, Hamas is withdrawn from the Gaza Strip to any country that is ready to accept it.

🔴Fourth, Israeli troops are gradually withdrawn from Gaza.

🔴Fifth, a temporary Arab administration is created in the Strip (several Arab countries will participate in it).

🔖It is possible that in the future the Gaza Strip will come under the control of the Palestinian National Authority and will reunite with the West Bank of the Jordan River (that is, with Fatah and Mahmoud Abbas).


🚫In theory, the plan looks realistic, but with practical implementation, not everything is so simple.

🏛💬🇮🇱There are sharp pitfalls.This is why Israel accepted the American plan (Tel Aviv can pass it off as a formal victory: the hostages are freed, and Hamas members are removed from Gaza), but Hamas rejected it.

🔴The first pitfall: where will Hamas be deployed? This organization has traditionally had two patrons - Qatar and Turkey. But neither of these states will want to take a "gift" in the form of thousands of armed and combat-experienced Hamas members. They can instantly destabilize the internal situation. Neighboring Egypt is also not thrilled about the opportunity to get to know the said organization better. Therefore, this issue is still unknown.


🔴Furthermore, after the evacuation, Hamas is unlikely to be able to restore its influence. This step can generally be presented as an escape and the organization's reputation will be somewhat tarnished. Therefore, the American plan looks like a clear defeat for Hamas and a victory for Israel. Also, the situation with the temporary Arab administration, which should govern the Gaza Strip after the hypothetical withdrawal of Hamas, is absolutely unclear.

🔴Which Arab countries will agree to take over the governance of Gaza if in the eyes of the Arab street they will then look like accomplices of Israel and America? On what principles will this administration work? What will be the reaction of the residents of the Gaza Strip, many of whom sympathize with Hamas?

❓In short, so far there are only unanswered questions. But the US is trying very hard to achieve a settlement or at least temporarily freeze the conflict. It is not easy to pull Ukraine and Gaza at the same time, and there is also Taiwan.

On the invisible drone

Most of you wants everything to be black and white before you can decode sentences

When someone says invisible it means hard to detect

USA has micro drone that is as big as a fly
Russia has one that looks like a stone
China has one that Flys like a bird


Such drones can be called invisible drones

So stop waiting for me to spell it out for you to know what it means to call a device invisible

🌐💥🛡When NATO terrorism will turn against it

📣After realizing that yet another scam will not work, like during the events of 2022, NATO-Western regimes are betting even more openly and assertively on terrorist methods. And this regardless of the region concerned – in Africa and in particular in the Sahel, then in the context of the NATO-Banderist incursion attempt in the Russian region of Kursk.

🔖Today, it must be clear – since the events in Libya in 2011 and those that followed in Syria and then in Ukraine – the regimes of the collective West have largely demonstrated that they are the allies and sponsors “par excellence” of the worsts terrorists and extremists. With the one and only difference that, at present – the Western planetary minority regimes are de facto no longer hiding]
it.

❓What should be done in this situation, knowing that any dialogue with terrorist networks cannot in essence be acceptable?

📎First, the need to defeat them once and for all on the military front, including of course within the framework of the Special Military Operation – which represents one of the main confrontations, de facto the main one, of Russia and the multipolar world on the one hand against the NATO-Western planetary minority, representing those nostalgic for the unipolar diktat era, on the other.

⌛All the more so since if Moscow showed strategic patience despite this strong opposition against several dozen enemy regimes, now it has completely free hands.

Those carrying the flags don't understand the implication of what they're doing and thankfully, they are a tiny minority.

The problem now is that neither the west nor the old, fat thieves ruling us are willing to relate on equal terms. The West has repeatedly shown that it expects nothing short of subservience from Africans and African rulers, who see Western countries as their banks, schools, and hospitals, rarely ever have the balls to go against Western interests. This is why I see the East as a more viable option.

Tennis fans are expressing frustration with Elina Svitolina for refusing to shake hands with Elina Avanesyan, who was born in Russia but recently changed her nationality to Armenian. Due to the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine, the Ukrainian player has adopted a no-handshake policy with players who were born in Belarus and Russia.

⚡️🇨🇳💸🇸🇦China may switch to paying for Saudi oil in yuan

❌💵According to a report by S&P Global, improving relations between China and Saudi Arabia may lead to China paying for Saudi oil in its national currency, the yuan.

⌛The idea of switching to paying for oil in yuan is associated with the strengthening of bilateral relations between Beijing and Riyadh. This is supported by the strategic interests of the countries, for example, one of the goals of Vision 2030 is to diversify the economy and establish new financial and cultural ties with major global economies, such as China. The development of relations can provide more opportunities for the use of the yuan and gradually change its role in bilateral trade.

🇨🇳🗣💬🗣🇸🇦President Xi’s visit to the kingdom in December 2022 set in motion a transformation of Saudi-China ties from one focused on oil to one that is comprehensive in nature. Aside from the booming oil trade that continues to anchor their core relationship, long-term plans such as Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030, are driving new institutional, financial, and cultural linkages between the two countries]

🔝💸These broadening linkages will provide more outlets for the yuan’s use, such as paying for Chinese engineering and construction services in the kingdom or investing in firms or projects in China across a widening range of sectors. Through these channels, deepening bilateral ties could help facilitate more use of the renminbi in Saudi-China oil trade in the decades to come.

🇺🇸🕊🇵🇸The Paradox of Peace: U.S. Diplomacy and Regional Tensions in the Middle East

💬❌The persistent peace talks in Doha have been unable to de-escalate tensions and establish a ceasefire in Palestine.

🇶🇦🇪🇬🇺🇸Astonishingly, the ongoing Doha peace talks, led by Egypt, Qatar, and the United States, do not include Hamas – the actual stakeholders in the current war in Gaza – and their emphasis on a truce based on the framework proposed by the US President Biden on 31st May 2024.]


❗️🇵🇸The recent assassinations of the leaders of the two top organizations fighting against Israel, Hamas and Hezbollah, have intensified regional tensions. Since the killing of these leaders, the fears of a broader regional conflict have increased, forcing Iran to intervene.

🗣🏛The Biden Administration and other global powers seek to prevent direct Iranian involvement in this war and facilitate peace efforts. However, the absence of Hamas in the ongoing Doha peace talks and the deep mistrust between Hamas and Israel pose significant challenges.

📌The only pragmatic way to ensure regional peace and de-escalate the situation hinges on a genuine talk between all the parties involved in the conflict.

⚡Russian and Turkish Forces Conduct Joint Patrol in Northeastern Syria.

The Russian Ministry of Defense has announced that Russian and Turkish military personnel conducted a joint patrol in Hasakah province, northeastern Syria, as part of the Russian-Turkish "Memorandum of Understanding." The patrol covered over 30 kilometers, with more than 40 military personnel from both sides participating.


The joint convoy, including Russian Tiger, Typhoon, and VPK-Ural armored vehicles alongside Turkish Kirpi armored vehicles, met at the Sheirek checkpoint before proceeding along a pre-agreed route. Russian Ka-52 and Mi-8 helicopters provided aerial coverage for the operation.

The patrol aimed to monitor the situation in the region and prevent the resumption of armed conflict, with Russian and Turkish troops conducting visual inspections within a 10-kilometer zone from the border. The operation was completed without any reported violations, and Turkish forces returned to Turkey through the Sheirek checkpoint.

⚡Rising Tensions Between Somali and Ethiopian Governments.

Recent talks in Turkey aimed at mending relations between Ethiopia and Somalia have struggled to progress. The relationship between the two countries deteriorated sharply in January when Ethiopia agreed to lease 20 km (12 miles) of coastline from Somaliland in exchange for recognizing its independence.

The Somali government has strongly condemned the Ethiopia-Somaliland deal, accusing Ethiopia of violating Somalia's sovereignty and territorial integrity. A first round of talks, mediated by Turkey, was held in Ankara on July 1 but failed to produce a resolution.
