Why do we believe them that Epstein is dead? 😃

And this is the “progressive left” party of Australia joining the “progressive left” party of the USA in an extremely racist and barely veiled dog whistle.

:popcorn-time:

I think it looks really fucking cool, like some shit you’d see in a 90s sci-if movie hell yeah.

Yup. They’re right. That’s austerity economics.

1. Cut welfare so there is an only inadequate safety net meaning the threat of poverty can be wielded by employers to discipline labor
2. Maintain a pool of available labor, structural underemployment, which means labor has little bargaining power
3. Tax cuts for the wealthy and a tax code designed to accumulate wealth to the financial class

Women are you going on a trip?

The fact is the USA most likely won’t opt for nuclear Holocaust and in the medium term will settle for a reduced imperium which means we win everything.

Yes what you said is correct but Russia not just a middle man here. Russia is not merely playing the role of umpire here but is structuring the security arrangement of the Caspian basin and the Black Sea here.

Turkiye’s interest can be summarized as they do not want an independent Kurdistan since about a quarter to a third of Turkiye would arguably be Kurdistan so in the interests of structuring a stable peace arrangement I don’t see why the Kurds get much out of this.

If Turkiye is pulling out of Syria then I would assume that Syria (Assad) would be undertaking to limit Kurdish autonomy to limit Kurdish separatism in Turkiye.

Which is interesting since it intersects with Iran and Azerbaijan. Iran is interested because there is a large Azeri minority and Iran wants to prevent Azeri separatism so there’s a kind of symmetry here that might be the basis for a grand settlement for the region, except I struggle to see how the Azeri-Iran hurdle is actually crossed in a secure way.

I think Russia will want to be as friendly as possible with Turkiye without pissing off Iran, which means Russia won’t be losing much sleep over Kurdistan IMO.

I can see a settlement between Armenia and Azerbaijan fairly directly to be honest. They each need a corridor and the settlement will be both get their corridor.

But Russia will need to settle things with Iran here. Iran’s opposition to that corridor is the only missing piece here. If that gets squared then you have a stable settlement for that part of the region, and a stable settlement that hinges on good Russian and Turkish relations.

It would be a huge coup for Russia but I don’t see how Iran is going to be cool with it.

Also the Kurds get screwed hard, as is tradition.

Reports that Turkey have agreed to withdraw from Syria

I’m curious how this intersects with Irans opposition to a corridor between Azerbaijan and Turkiye. Does this rapprochement between Syria and Turkiye signal a weakening of the Syrian/Iran alliance or does this herald Turkey making some rapprochement with Iran over the Azerbaijan question?

Caspian geopolitics are my favorite.
