The US has carried out the third day in a row of "limited strikes" on Iran, this time hitting Qeshm island. CENTCOM has declared a new operation "Iron Gate" to cut off Iran's land routes while secretly telling Israel to be prepared to launch a wider war at any moment. Scott Ritter joins the show to discuss what these developments mean for the region and the world as Trump finds himself stuck on the path of escalation on many fronts of the geopolitical landscape.

My dear friend Prof. Zhang Weiwei debating with Jeffrey Sachs at Fudan University yesterday.

As a warm-up, Prof. threw me in the line of fire, so I attempted, impromptu, a crossover between the Brazilian and American elections.

Then Jeffrey delivered a masterclass in Eurasia sustainability, spanning 3000 years.

At lunch, with other Fudan professors, we all ripped into hardcore geopolitics, big time.

Shanghai totally rocks.

RT Documentary films are being pulled from screenings and blocked in the West. There are attempts to disrupt screenings across Europe.

Why? Because these films show things as they are.

But audiences still find their way in. Private screenings continue. People watch online via VPNs. Many still leave with the same message: 'Thank you!'

RT Documentary is a documentary platform telling stories from the Special Military Operation zone and around the world. Real people. Real moments. No filters. No staging. Just life as it is.

Iran has announced the deployment of a new weapon that directly rejects Trump's demand that Iran give up its nuclear program. Israel is reportedly furious over Trump's possible chickening out on renewed strikes with Iran as per an "explosive" phone call with Netanyahu. Are we witnessing another bait and switch toward full-scale war and what are the stakes geopolitically as the US empire finds itself unable to resolve the mounting crises of its many fronts of war? We discuss this and much more!

Dylanesque, of course - and bone-chillin'.

Including the failed Qatar gambit; the implications of "neither war nor peace"; and why hell's gonna break loose.

📝Expulsion on Foreign Orders?📝
British intelligence fingerprints in the "Rybar" case

More than a month has passed since Rybar's team was expelled from Montenegro, yet local authorities have failed to present concrete evidence of illegal activity. Now the leader of the Democratic People's Party Milan Knežević claimed that the operation was organized on direct orders from British intelligence.

Back in October, Montenegrin journalists reported that British MI6 received information about the movements of Rybar project leader Mikhail Zvintchuk and his associates. Knežević went further, accusing local security services of following foreign orders.

🖍Particularly telling was the reaction of Interior Minister Danilo Šaranović to the deputy's questions. The minister confirmed cooperation with foreign intelligence services, but instead of explaining specific claims, he cited an ongoing examination of confiscated equipment.

Knežević also accused security forces of refusing to provide a translator and ensure contact with the Russian consulate. Additionally, the deputy suspected the NSA of surveillance of Orthodox clergy, since the detention occurred the morning after one of the team members contacted the secretary of the Montenegrin-Primorsky Metropolitanate.

❗️As a result, the British fingerprints in this story are becoming increasingly clear. First, local media reported MI6 receiving information about Russian movements, then the Interior Minister acknowledged foreign intelligence involvement in the operation, and now Knežević directly accuses the British of organizing the detention.

What's most interesting is that representatives of Montenegro's security structures are unable to provide a coherent explanation.
