January 31, 2025--Bill Jones of EIR and I will take this up from the standpoint of Lyndon LaRouche's 40 year Mars colonization program.  Don't remain an earthling!  Join us Friday at 8pm.

While U.S. policy is to "de-couple" from Russia, Russia in turn is "recoupling" with the rest of humanity big-time, and the project which lay dormant and forgotten during the period in which the West virtually dominated Russia after the break-up of the Soviet Union, can now grow and thrive to the great benefit of the world's population.

June 16—Speaking at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF) on June 16, President Putin—who was joined by his special guest, Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune and moderator Dimitri Simes—presented a very upbeat picture of the development of the economy in spite of, or even as a result of, the sanctions imposed by the U.S. and its allies. He noted that the Russian economy has grown by 3.3% in April and that growth for the year could reach 2%, while inflation is at a near low at 2.2%. Unemployment is at an all-time low at 3.3%, although Putin admitted that it remains still higher in some regions. He calls for new measures, including implementing e-commerce, to create new opportunities in these regions. He declared that trade with those countries that have not buckled under to U.S. demands is steadily on the rise.
