Can Austrian Banks Facilitate

PM Modi's Austria Visit
India, geopolitical strategist, Velina Tchakarova argues "has positioned itself as a real bridge builder between the two worlds. So practically, what India is doing right now is taking the best from both worlds. It is deepening the relationship with Russia against the possible aggressive behavior of China. When it comes to the West, once again, India, proves the readiness and the willingness...but also, is having fortunately a very adequate leadership that understands these dynamics". Ms Tchakarova, the founder of consultancy company 'FACE'- ''For A Conscious Experience' speaks to StratNews Global Associate Editor Amitabh P. Revi on 'The Gist'.
Austrian Banks & India-Russia Payments
She analyses Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to Austria. The last Prime Ministerial visit was of PM Indira Gandhi in 1983.
Velina points out, "The India-Russia trade volume is projected to further grow in the next two years. The two leaders(Putin and Modi) have announced a $100 billion target. A lot in this portfolio will be based on energy supply. I think India would be exploring how other countries that are currently in a similar situation, are facilitating financial transactions. Now, we know for a fact, because it was made public that Austrian banks like Raiffeisen which is still active in Russia has paid more than $ 400 million in taxes last year, in 2023. That means, of course, that it was part of the facilitation of the payments for the gas supply from Russia. And here I think there will be some talks, obviously behind the curtains, closed-door talks, on how to explore different financial mechanisms. And by the way, we saw in the press release from the meeting between President Putin and Prime Minister Modi, that they are already looking at and exploring different options on how to facilitate these payments."
Velina Tchakarova also discusses:
*"Different layers" behind PM Modi's decision to visit Austria after Russia.
*India and Austria as "bridge-builders".
*Austria's 90% dependency on Russian gas supplies.
*PM Modi's "this is not an era of war, no solution on the battleground and being pained by innocents being killed" statements.
*How President Putin is "convinced he's on the winning side in the war against Ukraine.
*The NATO Summit and more promises of F-16 fighter jets.
*and the Russia-China partnership and how India is navigating that geopolitical reality.

Nice interview. So this Raiffeisen bank is dealing in which currency?

[@OrwellsHousecat]

How can the EU survive? Will EU get it's joint army ready? Will EU re-industrialise? With what energy source? Will EU get out from under Uncle Sam? & become one of the poles? What might EU-India relationship look like?

People, I badly need your advice. I have an LLM in maritime law and I am interested in geopolitics. I am about 35 and I want to switch my career from law to geopolitics. Where should I start and I would like to work in think tanks like stratnews global to enrich my experience.

[@sandeepsaxena8266]

just an observation, austria and germany have lots in common and yet they"re very different, it is very evident between the army men giving guard of honour .

A very rational intrepretation of events involving Russia, India and China. However, one cannot agree that the risk of a nuclear exchange between Russia and NATO is very much as it was during the Cold War. NATO has continuously increased the confrontation and escalation with Russia and, certainly, so has the risk of nuclear exchange. It would be foolish for the US to respond directly to a tactical nuclear exchange in Europe by Russia. One needs to be reminded that Russia is a peer nuclear power of the US of existential proportions and the US would be insane to risk a strategic nuclear exchange. It's just a losing game of brinkmanship by the US and NATO, whether conventional or otherwise, given that it is occurring far from the US mainland. The greatest stupidity must rest with the likes of Poland, the Baltics, Finland and Sweden to believe that NATO can provide security. The best would be for the frontline States to seek accomodation with Russia, as Russia needs it too, to ensure her territorial integrity and survival as a State. NATO is just an American ruse for World domination by the US, liberty and democracy be damned.

[@OrwellsHousecat]

The weight & responsibility of American hegemony stands on the shoulders of USA but where does that wealth go when evidently not spent on the USA development? Risk of big nukes is related to the chances of a direct engagement between USA & Russia which she says is low, probably because there are plenty of other proxies & battlefields to use and also because USA is most likely to leave EU with a hot running war to manage (ie EU will take the role of zelensky, regularly begging USA for arms & ammunition). Uncle Sam is disciplining & sabotaging EU in every hybrid warfare way, seemingly to use it as a battering ram against Russia; to maintain Nato rather hlthan the Russian led Eurasian security framework).

[@vjaysan]

Neutrality is a dirty word in American diplomacy. Even Nazi Germany accepted and respected neutrality but Americans don't, and similarly the Europeans.
