Russia Makes Unprecedented Arctic Move Ahead Of Miami Showdown
By: Sorcha Faal, and as reported to her Western Subscribers
An informative new Security Council (SC) report circulating in the Kremlin today first noting President Putin declared about the Special Military Operation to liberate Ukraine: “The objectives of our special military operation will certainly be achieved”, says this declaration was followed by Defense Minister Andrey Belousov grimly revealing: “Ukraine has lost almost 500,000 servicemen this year alone”.
Earlier today, this report notes, unelected Ukrainian Dictator Vladimir Zelensky announced that Ukrainian delegates are on their way to the United States to discuss peace efforts with their American counterparts on 19 and 20 December—a White House source then revealed to Axios: “Russian President Vladimir Putin’s envoy Kirill Dmitriev is expected to visit Miami this weekend for talks with White House envoy Steve Witkoff and President Trump’s adviser and son-in-law Jared Kushner on the U.S. plan to end the war in Ukraine…At the moment there is no plan for a trilateral meeting between U.S., Ukrainian and Russian officials”—and top Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov stated: “We are indeed working on arranging certain contacts with our American counterparts to gather information on the outcomes of their work with Europeans and Ukrainians”.
The upcoming weekend showdown meeting between the United States and Russia in Miami, this report continues, is unprecedented because none of its participants are government diplomats, as Special Envoy Witcoff and Kushner are multi-billionaire private businessmen, and envoy Dmitriev is the director of the multi-billion dollar Russian Sovereign Wealth Fund, that eagerly looks forward to investing in American companies.
Also today, this report details, Dictator Zelensky and socialist European Union leaders are meeting in Brussels in an attempt to steal frozen Russian funds, about which was observed: “It is crunch time for Ursula von der Leyen and her Brussels-based cabal who have attempted to bend and break EU law in order to force through a dubious legal claim for the use of sovereign Russian wealth to further fund Ukraine’s military…Kiev is long past broke, owes the EU some €45 billion and faces a fiscal shortage of €70 billion for the next year, and is suffering a slow and painful frontline collapse”—an observation joined with the warning news: “Fitch Ratings has placed Euroclear Bank, the Belgium-based depository holding frozen Russian assets, on notice for a possible downgrade, citing legal and liquidity risks linked to the EU’s attempt to use the funds to finance a “reparations loan” to Ukraine”.
As to why the socialist European Union is trying to steal frozen Russian funds after cutting itself off from cheap Russian energy, this report notes, it was warningly revealed today: “An anti-fossil fuel, anti-drilling European Union is keeping its population alive only because of a pro-fossil fuel, pro-human administration across the Atlantic…The United States, by encouraging hydrocarbon production, has created the surplus that now warms European homes…Fossil fuels are the lifeblood of daily life, especially in advanced societies, which cannot run on the wishful thinking of wind and sun worshipers…The stability of European society today rests on the shoulders of American drillers of gas wells…The European Union serves as a warning of what happens when ideology trumps physics…Climate mandates cannot make the wind blow…The “green” emperor has no clothes, and, baby, it’s cold outside”.
Well known to multi-billionaire businessmen Special Envoy Witcoff and Kushner, this report continues, is that Russia’s largest in the world $75 trillion in natural resource wealth make sanctions impossible—the Russian ruble continues to strengthen against global currencies—Russian gold reserves just reached an all time high—and top Western military analysts Alexander Hill and Ted Snider most factually observed: “Russia has weathered the harshest sanctions regime the West could muster…Russia has the fourth largest economy in the world when measured by purchasing-power parity, which is an assessment of the size of an economy adjusted for the cost of goods and services within it, and is a key measure used by the World Bank…Russia’s GDP growth continues to be more than respectable – currently still expected to be above 1% for 2025 even according to conservative figures…For the first time since the war began, the 2026 budget actually cuts military spending…Russia will officially spend 5.8% of GDP on defense spending…In comparison, Ukraine spends 34.48% of GDP on the military, the largest military burden in the world”.
Also well known to American companies eager to invest in Russia’s beyond massive $75 trillion in natural resource wealth, this report concludes, is Russia possesses the world’s largest icebreaker fleet that’s larger than the rest of the world’s combined fleets, and includes the world’s only nuclear powered icebreakers, about which was just revealed: “Russia has deployed all eight of its nuclear icebreakers simultaneously in an unprecedented move…The fleet is being used to keep critical winter shipping lanes in the Gulf of Ob and the Yenisei Gulf open, ensuring continued access to key export terminals…The deployment sends a clear signal to the West that Russia can sustain year-round Arctic shipping and maintain its natural resource export revenues”.
