Germany is not an independent nation – Moscow
Berlin was “humiliated” by Washington during the Nord Stream sabotage controversy, senior security official Nikolay Patrushev has said.
Germany is facing an inevitable economic decline after losing its access to Russian energy, but cannot do anything about it because it is not a sovereign nation, the secretary of the Russian National Security Council has claimed.
“Germany tried for many years to build its economy on a combination of cheap Russian energy and advanced German technologies. Like no one else, it realizes that the terrorist attack against the [Nord Stream pipelines] will definitely cause the German economy to decline further,” Nikolay Patrushev said in an interview published in Argumenti i Fakti newspaper on Monday.
The advantages that German businesses enjoyed by getting access to Russian fuel has long irritated the governments of the US and the UK, he continued. But Berlin is not at liberty to continue cooperating with Moscow, “because the German nation is not independent.”
“Washington imposes on Berlin its economic and environmental agenda and keeps a 35,000-strong military force on its soil. For years, the White House controlled [former chancellor] Angela Merkel, and now it forces the German leadership to side with the version of the pipeline sabotage that is advantageous to the US authorities,” Patrushev said, describing America’s treatment of Germany as “humiliating.”
Moscow admits it ‘doesn’t know’ who attacked Nord Stream
The remarks were part of Patrushev’s comments on the sabotage of the undersea pipelines, which were built to supply Germany with Russian natural gas. The Nord Stream links were ruptured by powerful explosions last September in what Russia has called a blatant terrorist attack.
A series of articles published by Western media this month claimed that Western intelligence services believe that a “pro-Ukrainian group” not associated with any government was behind the attack. Patrushev argued that, considering the training and equipment that such a complicated operation required, this scenario would seem plausible only to people who “cannot think logically.”
Investigative journalist Seymour Hersh had previously reported that the operation was ordered by US President Joe Biden and conducted by a US-Norwegian team of saboteurs. Both nations deny this allegation.
Hersh said Washington wanted to prevent Berlin from making a U-turn on its decision to phase out Russian gas supplies in response to the Ukrainian crisis. Liquified natural gas, which is produced by American companies and costs significantly more, took over a large portion of the European energy market previously held by Russian fuel.

Third US crypto bank collapses
Regulators shut down Signature Bank after its shares plunged in the wake of Silicon Valley Bank’s failurevan
New York-based Signature Bank was shut down by US regulators on Sunday, becoming the third failure in the country’s banking industry in less than a week.
According to a joint statementfrom the Federal Reserve, US Treasury and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), the lender “was closed by its state chartering authority.”
The statement from the regulators was issued to announce a new emergency program to protect depositors of failing banks. They explained that they would make a “systemic risk exception” for both Signature and Silicon Valley Bank (SVB), a tech and start-up focused lender that was shut down following a bank run last week, allowing the clients of both banks to have full access to their deposits.
“[SVB] depositors will have access to all of their money starting Monday, March 13… We are announcing a similar systemic risk exception for Signature Bank… all depositors of this institution will be made whole. As with the resolution of Silicon Valley Bank, no losses will be borne by the taxpayer,” the regulators said, adding that they would use the FDIC’s deposit insurance fund to fully protect all depositors, both insured and uninsured.
Signature was a big lender to the crypto industry. As of December 31, it had $110.4 billion in total assets and $88.6 billion in total deposits, according to a securities filing. New York state officials said the move to close the bank was made “in light of market events” in a bid to protect bank clients and the financial system. In the wake of SVB’s collapse last week, Signature also saw its shares plunge following deposits outflows.
The collapse of Signature is the third significant failure in the US banking industry within the past week. California-based, crypto-focused Silvergate was the first to announce its impending liquidation last Wednesday, followed by the SVB implosion on Friday – the largest US bank collapse since the financial crisis of 2008. Bank failures sparked concerns over the health of the entire US banking system, with many other lenders seeing their stocks plunge.

Mmmh, huo moto uliowaka uko USA ni hatari, hii yote ni effect ya ku over print US dollars [emoji385] na kusababisha inflation iliyokwenda kupandisha interest rate.
Na ishu hii ya bank ikianza kuanguka moja, mara nyingi zinafuata nyingine kwa mfululizo maana investors na watu wana panic na kwenda kuwithdraw pesa zao kwa wakati mmoja.
Kuna taarifa ya investors wengi wanataka kuhamisha pesa zao kutoka USA na kuzipeleka nchi nyingi kuhofia severe recession ambayo USA [emoji631] inaelekea uko, so banks nyingine zitaanguka muda si mrefu.

John Bolton warns US 'sitting still' as China, Russia 'shore up their relations'
Former national security adviser John Bolton torches Biden's defense budget, says Americans must press 2024 candidates on Chinese threat
Former national security adviser John Bolton warned Sunday the United States is "sitting still" while China and Russia bolster their relations and influence.
"We’re sitting still, and the Chinese, the Russians, Iran, North Korea, and several others, are moving to shore up their relations and threaten us in a lot of different places," Bolton, who served as former President Donald Trump's third national security adviser before a tumultuous departure from the administration, said on WABC's "Cats Roundtable," hosted by John Catsimatidis.
China recently engaged Iran to reestablish diplomatic relations with Saudi Arabia and reopen embassies after seven years of tensions. The deal was unveiled Friday after being struck in Beijing amid its ceremonial National People’s Congress, representing a major diplomatic victory for the Chinese as Gulf Arab states perceive the United States slowly withdrawing from the wider Middle East. It also comes as diplomats have been trying to end a long war in Yemen, a conflict in which both Iran and Saudi Arabia are deeply entrenched.
"Dealing for example, in Saudi Arabia, what this reflects is their fear that the U.S. administration still has given up on a nuclear deal, getting back into the nuclear deal with Iran," Bolton said Sunday. "It’s an indication that the Saudis and others are trying to hedge their bets with China and Russia because they don’t think the United States has the resolve and the fortitude necessary to do what they need to do to protect the world against Iran and its intentions, both on the terrorist front and the nuclear front."

Earlier last week, Saudi Arabia said it deposited $5 billion into the Turkish central bank, likely helping Ankara firm up its long-weakening currency, the lira, after last month’s earthquake.
"And what the Chinese are doing is just basic blocking and tackling. They want access to as many oil reserves as they can get. They’re Iran’s biggest customer now – They’d like to have access to Saudi Arabia. They’re increasing purchases of Russian oil and gas frustrating to the U.S. and Western European sanctions," Bolton continued. "The Chinese have a strategy they’ve been following. We kind of wander around from day to day. And I think it’s becoming increasingly evident, and I hope the 2024 presidential election provides a forum to debate this, we’ve got to get our act together in the United States or this is only going to get worse."
Bolton reacted to the Biden administration's chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan, as former U.S. service members in Kabul at the time testified before Congress last week.
"It just shows how catastrophic the withdrawal was, catastrophic for American interests. And the Chinese are taking full advantage of it, so are the Russians," Bolton said. "We left a huge vacuum in Central Asia. They’re going to try to fill it if other foreign terrorists don’t fill it first. If we don’t think about these threats soon then things move faster in international affairs than people think. I mean take China’s build-up of nuclear weapons and capability to hit the United States with land-based ballistic missiles, submarine-based missiles, cruise missiles."

US ‘CONFIDENT’ CHINA CONSIDERING PROVIDING LETHAL EQUIPMENT TO RUSSIA, CIA DIRECTOR SAYS
"They’re moving full steam ahead and yet at the end of last week, President Biden proposed an increase in the defense budget that was less than the inflation rate," he added. "Out of a $7 trillion-plus proposed budget, defense is around $850 billion. That’s not a small amount of money, but it pales in comparison to over almost $7 trillion used on domestic expenditures. And it’s something that’s going to come back to bite us if we don’t pull our socks up."
Bolton also spoke about how China has been capitalizing on the war in Ukraine. Top U.S. officials have warned Beijing is considering providing "lethal equipment" to support Russia's offensive.

"One of the biggest winners of the war in Ukraine has been China," Bolton said. "If Russia were to win, and at the maximum retake all of Ukraine, that would be a victory for China’s ally that would strengthen China as well. But frankly, if Russia continues to get chewed up in Ukraine, that just makes Russia more dependent on China. So, China wins there as well."
"It’s exactly right to say that we’re watching Russia slip increasingly under Chinese control," he continued. "This is China’s alliance it’s putting together, and Russia is the junior partner. That’s not good for any of us. I’d like to find ways to pry Russia away from China. I think that’s impossible to do while this war is going on. And it’s really only after Ukraine regains its territory – and maybe we see some changes in Russia – that we’re going to get that chance."
"I would never bet against the United States, but I think as we enter this election season, and we’re already in the 2024 campaign, Americans have got to say to prospective presidential candidates ‘What’s your national security policy? What are you going to do to keep the country strong and safe from all of these external threats?’" Bolton said.

Pentagon Scrambling To Save US Interests In The Middle East, But Is It Too Late? — RT Op-ED
Ahead of anticipated regional escalations in the coming months, US Defence Secretary Lloyd Austin landed in the Kingdom of Jordan on Sunday, kickstarting another high-profile Middle East visit this year. Despite Washington’s efforts to impose its agenda, its current approach may be too out of touch to make a tangible difference.
Political analyst and journalist Robert Inlakesh writes how the Defense Secretary’s tour of the region shows Washington’s unwillingness to evolve.

Ex-Russian President Suggests New Name For Ukraine
Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev has proposed renaming Ukraine after notorious Nazi collaborator Stepan Bandera. His suggestion came after Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky told his government to consider a proposal to change Russia’s name.
On Friday, Zelensky instructed authorities to “thoroughly study” the proposal to officially rename Russia to “Moscovia.” He was reacting to an online petition, arguing that the name “Russia” provided grounds for “further encroachment” on the history of Kievan Rus, a medieval state from which Russia and Ukraine trace their origin. Many Ukrainian nationalists claim that their homeland is the only true heir of Rus.
On Saturday, Medvedev, who currently serves as deputy chairman of the Security Council, fired back in a post on his Telegram channel. “Our response?… Only the Schweinisch Bandera-Reich,” he wrote. The word “schweinisch” means “piggish” in German.

Economist Warns Of US Financial Crisis
Stephanie Pomboy, the US economist known for her predictions of America’s early 2000s housing bubble and the 2008 global financial collapse, has sounded the alarm on a recent spate of bank and cryptocurrency failures that could be just the beginning of another cascading crisis.
“What we’re facing right now is really serious,” Pomboy, founder of financial research firm MacroMavens, said on Friday in a Fox News interview. “We are on the brink of a 2008-style financial crisis.”
Pomboy made her assessment in the wake of Friday’s shutdown of Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) by federal regulators – the second-largest failure in US banking history. SVB’s collapse came on the heels of this week’s closure of cryptocurrency lender Silvergate Bank and the bankruptcies last fall of crypto firms FTX, BlockFi, and Three Arrows Capital.

Swiss Bankers Fear Chinese Wealth Exodus — FT
Executives at major banks in Switzerland have warned that the country’s decision to support Ukraine-related sanctions against Russia is hurting their business, the Financial Times reported on Thursday.
The unnamed banking officials told the media outlet that affluent clientele from China are seriously worried about depositing their money in Swiss banks after Bern ditched its policy of neutrality by freezing billions in Russian assets as part of sanctions.
In February, the Swiss State Secretariat for Economic Affairs reported that some $8.1 billion of Russian money was frozen by sanctions. Meanwhile, Credit Suisse, Switzerland’s second-largest bank, reportedly blocked over $19 billion in Russian assets.
