We are slowly but surely moving toward a rapprochement between the United States, Russia, and China. This prospect should put an end to the British strategy of destroying Russia and the American strategy of dividing Russia and China. The idea of cooperation between the Big Three corresponds to what Donald Trump has always wanted: economic alliances rather than fratricidal wars.
This rapprochement, however, is likely to come at the expense of those who rely on old antagonisms: the European Union and India.

Seven days into the first important week of September, it appears that the platform for the 21st-century New World Order is taking shape, with interests converging around three transcendent summits:
1) the Shanghai Group (SCO in Tianjin [1]);
2) the military parade in Beijing for the 80th anniversary of the victory over fascism [2], and
3) the Eastern Economic Forum in Vladivostok [3].

As I pointed out at the time, among the many secret agreements (sic) emerging after the historic summit in the oil state of Alaska between the two oil-producing presidents, Trump and Putin, The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) reports that "Exxon held secret (megasic!) talks with Rosneft about its return to Russia" [4].

According to the WSJ, the "resumption of operations in Russia would mark a dramatic rapprochement (sic) after Exxon’s chaotic break with Moscow when Putin attacked Ukraine in 2022." Exxon is not an oil company like the others; see The Private Empire: ExxonMobil and American Power (title of Steve Coll’s book [5]).

According to the WSJ, "What the two leaders didn’t say: Behind closed doors, their countries’ largest energy companies had already sketched out a road map for resuming operations, exploiting oil and gas fields off the coast of Russia’s Far East," and the newspaper adds that "in secret (megasic!) conversations with Russia’s largest state-owned energy company this year, a top ExxonMobil executive discussed returning to the mammoth Sakhalin project if both governments gave the green light, as part of the Ukraine peace process, people familiar with the discussions said."

I don’t like talking to clandestine ghosts, but I highly doubt that the Khazarian comedian Zelensky, about to be thrown under the bus, will be able to prevent, with his European bosses, the remarkable energy rapprochement between the Trump and Putin oil companies.

Rosneft is the Russian state-owned oil company, headed by the very powerful Igor Sechin, close to Putin and a member of the St. Petersburg ruling group.

As if that weren’t enough, according to Reuters, the mouthpiece of the Anglosphere, there is "the prospect of Russia purchasing US equipment for its LNG (liquefied natural gas) projects in the Arctic, LNG 2" (megasic!). Moreover, it is very likely that "the United States will buy icebreakers from Russia" [6]. A win-win situation!

In this regard, Putin stated that "Russia is discussing cooperation with the United States on the Arctic (megasic!) and Alaska," while "the Arctic region has significant reserves of mineral resources, and Russia possesses unique technologies that attract foreign partners." [7]

While the visit of Russian Duma Speaker Vyacheslav Volodin to Chinese President Xi Jinping in Beijing made headlines in the Global Times, [8] the presence of South Korean leader Lee Jae-myung at the White House was welcomed by Chinese media when President Trump offered to "visit China together" [9] after the US president stated that "at some point, probably this year or immediately after, we will visit China, [10] because we are going to have an excellent relationship" with Beijing.

In spectacular fashion, Trump announced that 600,000(!) Chinese students would be allowed to attend American universities. This is where Chinese academic financial tourism is going!

The only discordant news, relayed by the German media, is that Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi refused to take four phone calls from Trump [11].

A few days before the historic first week of September, it seems that the interests of the three superpowers of the increasingly likely tripolar New World Order are converging. Is a G-3 between Russia, China, and the United States reconfiguring itself behind the scenes?
