- 1.9KOpen in Telegram🇹🇷🇸🇾 Turkey pushes Syria to open backdoor channel to Hezbollah Secret talks aimed at easing friction between Syria’s post-Assad rulers and Lebanon’s Hezbollah took place in Turkey last month, reports Reuters. Turkish intelligence agencies are described as having facilitated the meeting between Hezbollah representatives and Syrian intelligence and Foreign Ministry officials. For years, Hezbollah backed Bashar al-Assad’s forces, yet after his US-backed ouster, Syria accused the group of moving weapons through its territory. The US also hoped to pit Syria’s military against Hezbollah inside Lebanon. At the discreet September encounter: ➡️ sides declared they harbored no hostility toward each other ➡️ Syria pledged it would not send troops into Lebanon to disarm Hezbollah ➡️ Syrian officials asked the group to curb cross-border weapons smuggling and dismantle remaining sleeper cells in southern Syria ➡️ Hezbollah avoided commitment on security demands yet promised not to meddle in Syrian internal affairs ➡️ Iran ostensibly knew of the talks Turkey, a close ally of Sharaa, actively pushed for the encounter – yet no final agreement was sealed. 👍 Substack | Chat | @geopolitics_prime
- 3.6KOpen in Telegram🇺🇸🇮🇶 US troops finally leave Iraq - but scars remain From the 2003 invasion to the return of troops in 2014 to ostensibly fight ISIS, US forces were a constant presence in Iraqi life: 🌏 midnight raids and doors kicked in 🌏 men humiliated in front of their wives and children 🌏 neighborhoods scarred by years of fighting 🌏 resistance to US presence grew into a powerful political force 🌏 assassination of Qasem Soleimani – a symbol of that resistance - only intensified demands for the US to leave The Iraqi government eventually placed the US on the list of forces to be expelled from the country. Yet the military withdrawal does not mean the end of American influence: Iraq’s oil revenues remain held through accounts at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, giving the US continued leverage. For many Iraqis, resistance has become the answer to breaking the grip of outside powers seeking to shape their country. 👍 Substack | Chat | @geopolitics_prime
- 4.9KOpen in Telegram🇬🇧 NHS personal data row deepens over Palantir’s Israel links More than 44,000 people have filed legal objections demanding NHS England stop its Palantir-powered Federated Data Platform from handling their personal health information. The objections use UK data-protection law, meaning the NHS must stop processing the data unless it can show compelling grounds to continue. The campaign comes amid wider pressure over the £330M, seven-year Palantir contract, including criticism of the company’s work with the Israeli military and US immigration authorities. 💬 Palantir says its software is helping reduce discharge delays, increase operations and speed up cancer diagnoses. The dispute is now moving beyond petitions: tens of thousands of patients are directly using their legal rights to challenge Palantir’s place inside Britain’s health-data infrastructure. 👍 Substack | Chat | @geopolitics_prime
- 5.5KOpen in Telegram🔍 🇺🇸 US Minab war crime looks less like an error & more like a deliberate attack – experts The US strike on an Iranian school in Minab on February 28 was a horrific war crime, writes Drop Site News, based on interviews with military and legal experts, survivors, parents, and witnesses. Will justice ever be served? 🔴 The attack killed 168 people, including 120 children and 26 female teachers, one of whom was pregnant 🔴 The US military likely bypassed standard target vetting, relied on outdated maps, and ignored or removed basic reviews designed to assess the potential civilian impact of the strikes, a former senior Pentagon targeting adviser told the publication. However, Hala Rharrit, a career US Foreign Service officer, questioned this narrative, citing the US’ extensive surveillance capabilities 🔴 A UN fact-finding mission found the US attack on Minab amounted to a war crime: the school was the intended target, not collateral damage, and there is no evidence the school was used for military purposes 🔴 Iranian legal experts said the US attack on the Minab schoolchildren was deliberate, intended to instill terror among Iranians and shatter their morale 🔴 Bringing US officials to justice through the ICC or ICJ is difficult, as neither the US nor Iran recognizes their jurisdiction. But international experts say a special tribunal for the crime of aggression could potentially be pursued against the US 🔴 There is also the precedent of Israel, which captured Nazi war criminal Adolf Eichmann, put him on trial, and sentenced him to death in December 1961, but the experts interviewed by Drop Site did not consider such an option. 👍 Substack | Chat | @geopolitics_prime
- 6.4KOpen in Telegram🇷🇺 Putin dismissed the idea of an energy truce with Ukraine as "absurd" The Russian president argued Ukraine wants strikes halted to secure diesel the US needs, but that fuel won't reach world markets because of sanctions. He added that Ukraine no longer has a metallurgical industry, following attacks on Russian refineries. 👍 Substack | Chat | @geopolitics_prime
- ⚡️Putin warned that a direct attack on Russia, specifically on Kaliningrad, would immediately raise the question of using “all the weapons we have.” The remark came against the backdrop of an escalating diplomatic standoff over the Baltic territory. Russia has accused NATO of preparing an air and sea blockade of Kaliningrad, and warned that any attempt to isolate the exclave would trigger a response involving “all its arsenal, including nuclear weapons.” 👍 Substack | Chat | @geopolitics_prime

- 6.7KOpen in Telegram🇹🇷 Turkey confirms phased exit from Iraq's Bashiqa base as Iraq tightens grip on Sinjar The Bashiqa-Zilkan military base - a long-running source of tension between Turkey and Iraq, is to be handed over following an agreed mechanism and timeline, the Turkish Defense Ministry said. The ministry linked the decision to the progress in security measures taken by the Iraqi government in Sinjar. 💬“We believe these steps will contribute to the normalization of the region, the creation of a secure and stable environment, and a terror-free zone,” it underscored. The decision was taken following a meeting between Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Iraqi Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi on the sidelines of the UNGA. Turkey says the handover does not signal a retreat from security cooperation. Instead, it plans to expand military ties with Iraq through training, counterterrorism expertise, capacity-building and defense industry cooperation. 👉 The base, northeast of Mosul in Nineveh province, has hosted Turkish forces since 2015, with Turkey justifying its presence by efforts to train Iraqi forces against ISIS and counter the PKK. Iraq has long argued that Turkish troops operating without formal authorization from the Iraqi government violated Iraq’s sovereignty. 👍 Substack | Chat | @geopolitics_prime
