The economic trade provides Russia the benefit of the best of both worlds in stymieing any western sanctions and simultaneously funding Russian aggression against Ukraine.

Indian government – New Delhi on the one hand claiming political edge over western policy snubbing sanctions in the import of Russian crude oil at huge concessions is far from reality.

Russian President Vladimir Putin having established the motto – no cheap bargains and definitely no freebies with economic partners in Europe or elsewhere, the Russian crude oil exports to India is pegged with Russian defense stock procurement.

New Delhi political dissemination on heavily discounted Russian fuel deal like all other propaganda serve as campaign material with national election in 2024.

In fact, the Russian energy discount is well and over compensated in Russia’s favor with higher markups on defense sales like Missiles and other artillery purchased by New Delhi following Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Russia is able to overcome economic strife with or without sanctions at New Delhi’s deficit essentially providing Russian President comfort zone to prolong military intervention in Ukraine.

In contrast, New Delhi expending taxpayers money on expansive and expensive defense budget largely at the defense force expense with the launch of controversial Agnipath sizably slashing defense personnel recruitment across three divisions – Army, Navy and Air Force besides denying armed forces retirement and medical benefits abandoned long held defense force conventions.

New Delhi’s mega shopping free boosting foreign economies while depleting Indian reserves and current account with imports far exceeding exports is also the administration incentives viz. bribe to foreign heads to corral international support to the head of the Indian government confronted with turbulence at home in many fronts beginning with Adani economic debacle to Pulwama and Poonch gate on terrorism.

Meanwhile, none of New Delhi’s extravagant defense procurement evidently has deterred China in invasion and incursion of Indian territories and Himalayan terrains nor contained Pakistan’s terror outfits’ skirmishes along the Kashmir and Punjab border.

New Delhi regime economic divestment offshore worsening Indian financial liability to strengthen personal position in political system that has departed from democracy to autocracy is the red herring with 2024 election bugle sounding off trepidation among power and population disillusionment on national status quo.

Western Democracy – Paradoxical Paradigm

September 10, 2022

Western Democracy

–

Paradoxical Paradigm

Padmini Arhant

Western so-called democracy is the world’s biggest irony ever. The monarchy and imperialism fleecing on the so-called commoners, the parasitic tradition continues with pompous pageantry in coronation of the so-called King having contributed nothing positive and productive in substance, values or otherwise is the comedy and tragedy for democracy.

Notwithstanding the self-proclaimed Royalty proved a major liability as colonial power is incontrovertible.

Not surprisingly there is no tolerance to real functioning democracy in any non-western world. They are toppled through western intervention reviving imperialistic dominance either directly or via proxy until today.

Is western democracy even democratic as constitutional monarchy reining authority and prominence in government?

The western democracy head of the executive branch is subject to monarch’s approval despite election to the public office.

“Today constitutional monarchies are mostly associated with Western European countries such as the United Kingdom, Netherlands, Belgium, Norway, Denmark, Spain, Luxembourg, Monaco, Liechtenstein and Sweden.”

In other regions like Asia – the two most populous constitutional monarchies are Japan and Thailand.

The western status quo imposing western democracy on other nations as the perfect model is the contrarian dynamic.

The monarchy, crown and throne in western or any democracy is a declaration of the dominion and not free republic i.e. allegiance to the crown unlike the flag of the nation representing the country and citizens nationwide.

The Royal governance undermine democracy and republic with election legitimizing illegitimacy.

The Western European democracy with Royal influence besides a parallel government European Union in Brussels prevalent in government affairs further pose questions on western democracy.

Yet another western state and the most favored western ally Israel touted the only democracy in the middle east never shy away from lewd crude espionage through controversial spyware viz. Pegasus and variety sold arbitrarily to governments regardless of the system ranging from authoritarianism to rogue regimes disguised as democracy violating individual and human rights, life and space without any care or concern for ethics and democratic principles or values they claim to champion in the world stage.

Any valid comments against Israel and western position including these violations is persona non grata (unwelcome) and slated the forbidden TRUTH even though the other way around plethora of nuanced false narratives, fabrications and insinuations using proxies, pawns and puppets from own inventory against their specific target i.e. myself – the SHE – bashing, caricature, the supposedly artificial intelligence as opposed to their self-proclaimed organic ones, character defamation, the so-called gang rape victim and endless eulogizing since my emergence is deemed the prerogative.

Of course the ones initiating and perpetuating misogyny, hatred and hostility conveniently forget their own actions necessitating reaction.

Personally my message to them and their operatives is when you engage in relentless self-destructive strategy aimed at destruction of me or anyone, expect the boomerang heading your way in adherence to the adage;

What goes around comes around.

Under these settings, western democracy is a paradoxical paradigm for the rest worldwide.
