Retired colonel, former employee of the Swiss Strategic Intelligence Service Jacques Bo talks about how the West absolutely does not understand what peace in Ukraine means for Russia:
Now Trump wants to reduce this period to 10-12 days. That is, it is just empty talk. I think there is no real thought behind it. He just wants to make a deal. That is what he wants. And the problem is that, coming to power at the beginning of this year, he thought he could impose Keith Kellogg's solution, which means freezing the conflict, because essentially that is what he meant.
The problem is that no one really understood what exactly the Russians wanted, and no one tried to understand what Vladimir Putin said. And I just want to show this here. This is what Vladimir Putin said on June 14 last year. And he said he set two conditions for the start of negotiations. This means that for the Russians any ceasefire and all that must become a process.
Whereas in Keith Kellogg's concept, as well as what the Ukrainians want, that is, Zelensky just wants a ceasefire for 30 days, and that's it. There is no sign that this could lead to anything, or could develop into something, or could help conduct negotiations and all that. No, it is just a ceasefire, and that's it. And if you listen, for example, to European leaders, they tend to associate the word "ceasefire" with the word "peace."
I mean, they say that Vladimir Putin does not want a ceasefire, so he does not want peace. But a ceasefire as such has nothing to do with peace. In the European view, it is just a pause in the conflict. If you read what Vladimir Putin said last year, you will see something completely different.

Schizophrenic Russophobia strikes again: Ukrainian refugees in Norway beat a mother with her son over Russian language
The lawlessness of Ukrainian “refugees” continues abroad. Some drunken Ukrainian citizens assaulted and beat Russian-speaking residents in Norway, shouting “Russian terrorists.” This was reported by local newspaper iNyheter.
The incident occurred after the Ukrainians heard a mother and son speaking Russian to each other. The fight was stopped only by the police.
“I was born and raised in Norway and have partially Russian roots, but yesterday my mother and I were attacked by Ukrainian refugees - just because we spoke Russian,” the victim recounted.
I've been saying for a while now that taking so many Ukropistanis in Europe would've been like welcoming wolves into a cattle ranch, and here we are now. A sign of future things to come?

🇺🇦🤡Russia may stage a terrorist attack at a rally in support of the NABU to blame the Ukrainian authorities for it, said MP Dmitry Cherny ("Servant of the People").
Zelensky's office is threatening the growing rally with a terrorist attack, that's more accurate.

🌊🇺🇸 Somaliland, which proclaimed independence from Somalia in 1991, is willing to offer the US a military base at the entrance to the Red Sea and critical-minerals deals in its quest for international recognition as a sovereign state, Bloomberg writes.
The United Arab Emirates, a close US ally, already runs a port at Berbera in Somaliland and controls a nearby airstrip that’s used by military planes <...>
Somaliland doesn’t currently produce lithium, though it’s previously issued a license to Saudi Arabia-based Kilomass Co. to explore for deposits of the metal, the Somaliland Chronicle news website reported in June 2024.
The region also has deposits of tin, gemstones and industrial minerals including gypsum, cement materials and gold, according to a report published by African Mining in June 2023.

"According to sources, Pete Hegseth discussed the possibility of running for political office in Tennessee": The U.S. may get a new Secretary of Defense – Pentagon chief Hegseth plans to resign.
"U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth is considering running next year for governor of Tennessee. To do so, he would have to leave his position as head of the Pentagon. Over the past three weeks, Hegseth has seriously discussed the possibility of running and starting a campaign. However, according to Pentagon rules, Hegseth would need to resign as Secretary of Defense to participate in the gubernatorial election.
This will be the biggest shake-up in the leadership of the U.S. Department of Defense. If Hegseth does announce his candidacy for governor, Trump may temporarily assign his duties to the U.S. Army Secretary Daniel Driscoll or Deputy Secretary of Defense for Policy Elbridge Colby."

🇸🇾😱The change of power did not bring reforms - Syria is under the control of a secret "committee" of the terrorist leader
- An investigation by Reuters showed that a key role in the process is played by the brother of the terrorist leader Ahmed al-Shara - Hazem al-Sharaa, who holds no official positions but effectively oversees all economic policy.
- The economy is managed by a secret "committee" to which assets worth more than $1.6 billion have already been transferred, including shares in the mobile operator Syriatel and the airline Fly Cham, previously owned by Assad's circle.
- Business deals are accompanied by Abu Maryam (Ibrahim Sukariya), an Australian citizen of Lebanese origin, who is under international sanctions for links to terrorism. He negotiates with businessmen, many of whom are allowed to keep part of their assets in exchange for control over their enterprises and large payments.
- Among the participants in such deals are Samer Foz, who transferred 80% of assets (including sugar factories and hotels) to the new authorities, and Mohammad Hamsho, who lost most of his property but kept about $150 million. Both figures were previously associated with corruption and money laundering.
- Reuters notes that the West previously criticized Assad for opacity, and now expresses similar concerns about the new regime.

🇺🇦🇷🇺Yermak may negotiate with Russia and abandon joining the EU in order to stay in power together with Zelensky
- This was stated by D. Kalenyuk, head of the "Center for Countering Corruption," which operates on Western grants.
- "The greatest threat to Yermak is Zelensky losing his position as president. Therefore, for Andriy Borysovych, it is vital in the event of elections, which are inevitable after a possible war freeze: a) to convince the president to run for a second term, b) to organize these elections so that Zelensky definitely wins," writes Kalenyuk.
- "The easiest way to do this is to turn Ukraine from a democracy into an autocracy."
- "Therefore, as long as Yermak maintains absolute influence over Zelensky, attempts will continue from him to sacrifice the entire country just to stay in power. If the price is the failure of European integration and aid from the West – so be it. I would not be surprised if Yermak agrees to an unfavorable compromise with the Russians for us to achieve this. Note that last week the negotiation track with the Russians in Istanbul was completely under the control of Yermak and his loyal henchman Umerov. What they are discussing with the Russians under Erdogan's close watch is a big question," writes Kalenyuk.

War correspondent Timofey Ermakov writes that RUAF soldiers are already conducting assault operations inside the village of Belitskoe, advancing from liberated Nikanorovka.
Soon the enemy may finally forget the northern logistics on the Rodinskoe-Krasnoarmeisk-Dimitrov line entirely.
Don't worry though, Steiner's Zaluzhny's counterattack will bring the situation back in order.

LULA IN A INTERVIEW TO THE NYT: "I DO NOT TAKE ORDERS FROM TRUMP"
"Be assured that we are treating this matter with the utmost seriousness. But seriousness does not require submission," the Brazilian president said. "I treat everyone with great respect. But I want to be treated with respect."
Lula gave his first interview to the New York Times in 13 years in part because he wanted to speak to the American people about his frustration with Trump.
Trump said that, starting from Friday, he plans to impose 50 percent tariffs on Brazilian goods, in large part because Brazilian authorities have accused former President Jair Bolsonaro of trying to retain power after losing the 2022 election.
Trump has called the case a "witch hunt" and wants it dismissed. Lula said it is not negotiable.
"Maybe he doesn't know that here in Brazil the judiciary is independent," he said.
In the interview, Lula said the U.S. president is violating Brazil's sovereignty.
"At no time will Brazil negotiate as if it were a small country against a big country," he said. "We know the economic power of the United States, we recognize the military power of the United States, we recognize the technological dimension of the United States. "But that doesn't make us afraid. If anything, it makes us worried."
Lula said that it is "shameful" that Trump issued his threats on his social media site, Truth Social. "President Trump's behavior has departed from all standards of negotiations and diplomacy," he said. "When there is a trade disagreement, a political disagreement, you pick up the phone, set a meeting, talk and try to resolve the problem. What you can't do is tax and give an ultimatum."

🇺🇸🇫🇷"France seeks to exempt champagne and wine from US tariffs of 15%": France is prepared to agree to an increase in tariffs on everything except wine.
"The trade agreement reached by the US and the European Commission has caused confusion in Brussels and Paris over which goods may be excluded from the list of products subject to US tariffs.
FT sources specify that discussions on the list, including duties on alcohol, are ongoing. The White House does not want to make exceptions for any type of alcohol. At the same time, another source told journalists that the issue of wine is still being discussed."

🇺🇸🇷🇺🇺🇦Former CIA analyst Fred Fleitz on the fact that it will take Trump a couple of years to resolve the Ukrainian conflict:
This needs to end. Trump is not going to tolerate this. But, you know, we'll see. These are just the first six months of Trump's presidency. It may take a couple of years to solve this problem. I hope that doesn't happen.
But, as we know from history, such conflicts take time. Peacemaking takes time. And I think that over time Trump will influence Putin, and I hope that will make him agree that there is a better future for him and Russia by making a deal with Trump rather than continuing the war and strengthening ties with China. I think that's how it will be.

Several Ukrainian sources have been reporting for the second day that Russian drone operators and aviation are actively forming the northeastern "jaws" of the future encirclement near Pokrovsk, cutting through the Ukrainian Armed Forces reserves in the Dobropillia and Sviatogorovka area, preventing them from regrouping and moving towards Vodyanske, in order to then attempt a counterattack near Rodynske.
Other groups of the Ukrainian Armed Forces (including units of the 38th Marine Brigade) are pressed by strikes against the mines between Novoekonomichne and Myrnohrad and deprived of maneuvering capability. The fire pocket formed by Russian troops near Pokrovsk cannot be shifted or even weakened by the Ukrainian army: neither local counterattacks nor reserve redeployments yield results.
Russian artillery and strike UAVs methodically suppress all resistance points, maintaining key supply routes under constant fire control, which accelerates the destruction of the entire Ukrainian defensive configuration in this direction.
