🚨 Putin plans to use Ukraine peace talks to push NATO back to its 1997 military posture According to The Telegraph, the Kremlin wants to force NATO to scale back its military presence in Europe to levels seen before Eastern European countries joined the Alliance. This could mean demanding the withdrawal of NATO forces from Poland, the Baltic states, and Finland. That is why Moscow is pushing for European countries to participate in negotiations over Ukraine. Diplomatic sources cited by The Telegraph say Putin wants to turn talks about ending the war into negotiations over the entire European security architecture. The issue may also have been discussed during Putin's three-hour meeting with Trump's special envoy, Steve Witkoff, in St. Petersburg. However, European countries have previously rejected the Kremlin's demands to reduce NATO's military presence on its eastern flank.

New: Sources from three countries confirm that the Trump Administration has advocated Viktor Orbán for UN Secretary-General. The US has encouraged Orbán to enter the race, even bringing him the initial idea of a joint U.S.-Russia-China candidacy. WSJ: wsj.com/opinion/viktor-orban…

🇺🇸 Hegseth: by the end, only "one or two" allies were fighting in Afghanistan. Truth: About 1,160 allied troops died there. President @ilvestoomas went to every funeral. @AndyValvur entertained the troops. Is Hegseth being strategic or just dumb? Full ep youtu.be/c04ex211MC8

2025 - “Either the Russian military has terrible aim or you are targeting civilians, which is it?” 2026 - it’s not got better, I can safely say.
Welker to Lavrov: "Here are the facts. Close to 50,000 civilians have either been killed or injured in this war. Russia has hit maternity wards, churches, schools, hospitals, a kindergarten just this week. So either the Russian military has terrible aim or you are targeting civilians. Which is it?"

Rubio says the Russian invasion of Ukraine is "only about Donbas, about one region of Ukraine." Well, the occupied parts of the Kherson, Zaporizhzhia, Kharkiv, and Sumy regions would like a word. Crimea also still exists. ​Constantly bombed Odesa and Kyiv would like to know why they are being targeted if the war is only about Donbas. Kryvyi Rih asks why Russia is murdering kids in its shopping malls if the war is about Donbas. Lutsk is also confused. Dnipro is targeted constantly. The liberated parts of the Kyiv and Chernihiv regions would like to point out that mass graves of Ukrainians killed by Russian troops didn't appear by magic. ​It's called a full-scale invasion for a reason! ​And by the way, Donbas isn't even just "one region", it consists of at least two.
NEW!! Rubio on Russia's war in Ukraine: "... people keep talking about it’s a war in Ukraine.  That war is about Donbas. It’s about one region of the country."

However, let's recognize @elonmusk's bravery. Meddling in Europen politics and attacking the EU itself when you want regulatory privileges and frequency permissions is a bold business strategy.
More reporting suggesting that Musk does indeed have his finger on Starshield's operability. Quite a lot of power for a ketamine-addicted trillionaire in bed with hostile foreign regimes. You might even say this endangers U.S. national security. wsj.com/world/trump-called-m…

The GRU hacked into Jared Kushner's iPhone. Dutch military intelligence (MIVD) then recruited a GRU spy who gave them access to the hacked phone. What MIVD discovered was that Kushner had access to two bank accounts --one Azerbaijani, the other Israeli --where Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Emirati ruler Mohammed bin Zayed deposited money. It sounds like a slightly far-fetched episode of "Slow Horses," but it's real. And it proves just how eye-poppingly corrupt this administration was and continues to be as its "special envoy" decides the fate of tens of millions in Europe in the Middle East. Simply incredible reporting by Matthew Cole, drawn from his new book on Kushner. vanityfair.com/story/jared-k…

Holy shit, Witkoff just called Putin a "humanitarian." "You talk so much about my president, President Trump, being a humanitarian. You are a humanitarian also, sir, and I salute that, I commend you, and I thank you again." Because of Putin, thousands of Ukrainian civilians are dead, hospitals lie in ruins, and people are suffering from hunger, torture and Russian terrorism.

"A town got hit or whatever." Anhelina, a one-year-old, was killed in her stroller by a Russian Shahed yesterday in Kharkiv. Her mother, Inna Mariukhna, was also killed.
⚡️ "Some people in a town that got hit or whatever, but mostly soldiers die." Trump on Russian shelling of civilians in Ukraine.

So Europeans paid for interceptor missiles for Patriot in Ukraine, but USA is refusing to deliver?!
Breaking news: The Trump administration has not approved the transfer of interceptor missiles to Ukraine that are needed to protect the country from Russian attacks, officials said, a delay that comes as President Trump has embraced Russia in recent weeks. wapo.st/4yCb7T7

Somewhat unremarked upon is that Trump has made two era-defining foreign policy decisions — launching war with Iran and de facto aligning the U.S. with its decades-old enemy/adversary Russia (formerly the Soviet Union) — with NO consultation of the American people. Absolutely none. He literally reserved more TV time for the “election foreign-interference” crock than on two strategies that could perpetually undermine U.S. national and economic security. That's an election issue if there ever was one.
Trump’s despicable actions regarding Ukraine in recent weeks are more than a bankrupt betrayal; they risk undermining the global alliance structure that keeps America first in the world. My latest for @dcexaminer - washingtonexaminer.com/in_fo…

Trump/Musk have removed drone capability from Ukraine's frontline defenders.
America's gifts to Russia never end, with Russian military bloggers now confirming that Washington's operation to cut Ukraine's Starlink has halted Ukraine's ability to strike Russian logistics routes in Ukraine. An operation likely written in the Kremlin, executed by Washington.

“Russian borders don’t end anywhere” is a quote from no-one else but Putin. Which is why giving him Donbas, or Kyiv for that matter, will not be the end of a war but the beginning of a new one — with Russia in a much stronger position and Ukrainians its cannon fodder.
Donald Trump says the Russian sanctions waiver is to help negotiate peace. But one Russian paper today writes: “We will make a deal with Ukraine entirely on our terms.” Another paper: “Russia’s borders, as we know, do not end anywhere.” #ReadingRussia

One reason Putin was bold enough to invade Ukraine, then launch an all-out war, was that Europe was too dependent on Russian energy to fight back. Now that Europe is weaning itself off that catastrophic situation, the White House says they should buy Russian gas, for peace? 🤡
Идеи, которые возникают в Вашингтоне в последние недели, одна другой краше. После того как Дональд Трамп подписал указ, приостанавливающий действие ряда ограничений, предусмотренных «законом Грэма», стало известно о еще одной «прорывной» инициативе, которая якобы должна приблизить мир в Европе. Одним из ключевых элементов «мирного плана» администрации Трампа стало предложение Европе возобновить закупки российского газа в больших объемах. Эмиссары Трампа поднимали эту тему в беседах с украинскими и европейскими чиновниками, в том числе с Владимиром Зеленским. Американцы утверждали, что ради «стимулирования России к прекращению войны» Украине следует рассмотреть возможность возобновления работы газопроводов, проходящих по ее территории. Впрочем, как пишет NYT, европейцы отреагировали на эту идею резко отрицательно, хотя бы потому, что ее реализация свела бы на нет многолетние усилия Евросоюза по избавлению от зависимости от российского газа. Но в администрации Трампа рассматривают экспорт российского газа как потенциальную составляющую мирного соглашения. При этом американцы учитывают возможные доходы Украины от транзита, а также то, что европейские избиратели, по их мнению, неизбежно захотят более дешевых энергоносителей. Эти так называемые «компромиссные идеи» — уже даже не предложения о частичной капитуляции Украины. Это фактически предложение сдаться Путину всем континентом, вернув ему в руки любимый рычаг — возможность коррумпировать целые страны или развязывать «газовые войны» в случае неподчинения
