Russia Wields “Weapon Of Victory” Over American Artificial Intelligence Revolution

By: Sorcha Faal, and as reported to her Western Subscribers

A thought-provoking new Security Council (SC) report circulating in the Kremlin today first noting President Putin will go on a four-day visit to China next week, says China is under a “bone crushing sanctions” threat from the United States over its refusal to stop buying Russian energy, but the leftist New York Times just factually observed: “If sanctions were placed on major Chinese banks, international trade would slow considerably...Many American companies would be unable to pay Chinese factories for goods or receive payments for their own exports...Supply chains for everything from electronics to pharmaceuticals could freeze up, sending prices soaring for American consumers...This calculus has made Chinese banks nearly unsanctionable”.

On the anniversary of Ukraine Independence Day celebrated today, this report notes, President Donald Trump declared: “The people of Ukraine have an unbreakable spirit, and your county’s courage inspires many...As you mark this important day, know the United States respects your fight, honors your sacrifices, and believes in your future as an independent nation...Now is the moment to bring an end to the senseless killing” and warned: “Ukraine will have to make concessions because it cannot win the conflict!”—the leftist Washington Post then assessed: “Trump’s brand of diplomacy is indeed a disorienting one, anchored by few foundational principles and frequently upended by his shifting positions and declarations that turn out to be hollow”—and the Wall Street Journal revealed: “The U.S. has quietly implemented a review process giving Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth authority to bar Ukrainian long-range strikes inside Russia with American missiles, effectively blocking strikes for months”.

Disregarding the warning issued by President Trump, this report continues, unelected Ukrainian Dictator Vladimir Zelensky proclaimed like a lunatic today: “Here at the zero kilometer, this is a starting point where distances to Ukrainian cities are marked – to our Donetsk, our Lugansk, our Crimea...All of this is Ukraine, and no temporary occupation can change that...One day we will be together again as one country...It’s only a matter of time”—a proclamation of lunacy followed by Politico revealing: “President Donald Trump believes Moscow should be ‘coaxed’ into peace talks with Ukraine, whereas Kiev can be ‘pressured’ due to its dependence on Western aid”—all of which was joined with the news: “The problem of systemic corruption is a really acute topic in Ukraine now...However, particularly corruption (supported and protected by the authorities all over the vertical of power) add fuel to the fire of the war distancing Ukraine from peace...While defense budgets and multibillion tranches of military aid from the allies are creating a fertile ground for corrupt politicians, while the fight against corruption is remaining a cover created for Europe and America, while Ukrainian businessmen are developing new schemes of getting rich on the war, a peaceful settlement of the war is out of question”.

As President Trump ponders how to end a war that corrupt Ukrainian officials want to continue because it is making them rich, this report details, the Financial Times newspaper in London just factually revealed: “Despite the sanctions imposed by Western countries, American oil service companies continue to expand their business in the Russian Federation”—and as to why American companies can’t stop aiding Russia in fossil fuel exploration, the Pentagon think tank Rand Corporation warned: “The United States leads the world in data centers and AI compute, but exponential demand leaves the industry struggling to find enough power capacity to rapidly build new data centers...Failure to address bottlenecks may compel U.S. companies to relocate AI infrastructure abroad, potentially compromising the U.S. competitive advantage in compute and AI and increasing the risk of intellectual property theft”.

Joining the Rand Corporation, this report concludes, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology also warned: “The energy resources required to power this artificial-intelligence revolution are staggering, and the world’s biggest tech companies have made it a top priority to harness ever more of that energy, aiming to reshape our energy grids in the process...Meta and Microsoft are working to fire up new nuclear power plants...OpenAI and President Donald Trump announced the Stargate initiative, which aims to spend $500 billion—more than the Apollo space program—to build as many as 10 data centers...Each of which could require five gigawatts, more than the total power demand from the State of New Hampshire”—and are warnings well known to top Kremlin advisor Kirill Strelnikov, who, in his just released document “The West Has Officially Capitulated: It Has Become Clear Why Russia Cannot Be Defeated”, factually observed:

This past week the country celebrated its 80th anniversary of the Russian nuclear industry.

Thanks to the labor feat of our nuclear scientists, who in just four years created the first Soviet atomic bomb from scratch, we have ensured reliable nuclear parity with the West, which guaranteed the country’s security even during the most crisis periods of the Cold War, and also continues to serve as a powerful deterrent even now, when the war is already hot in many ways.

As of the beginning of 2025, the Rosatom corporation is simultaneously conducting projects with a total value of about $200 billion at 40 international sites; domestic nuclear power plants provide about 20% of the country’s total energy consumption, and in the near future the figure will increase to 25%; almost every tenth nuclear power unit in the world is of Russian origin.

Russia is the world's main and only full-cycle supplier: uranium enrichment, fuel supplies, nuclear power plant construction and personnel training. According to Western experts, more than 75% of the world's nuclear programs depend on Russian technology and nuclear fuel. Russia still remains the main supplier of nuclear fuel for nuclear power plants in the United States (about 20% of all needs), and in total Russia has at least 40% of the uranium enrichment market.

Western experts and the military are sounding the alarm: states capable of quickly deploying mobile nuclear installations will gain a fundamental advantage in the wars of next-generation AI drones. At the same time, energy will become a key resource, and nuclear technology a "weapon of victory" to ensure uninterrupted power supply to the voracious military platforms of the future.

Conclusion: formally, the peaceful energy of today will become the main battlefield and the most important factor of strategic dominance tomorrow.

Russia has gone into a lead in this area, which is almost impossible to overcome in the foreseeable future, that is, the nuclear war of the future has already ended before it even began.
