Former Bundeswehr General Wittmann on Ukraine still having a chance to defeat Russia:
"First of all, perhaps we have already lost too much time by providing Ukraine with weapons on the principle of "too little, too late". But perhaps a powerful joint effort can still turn the tide. So I am not saying that this war is already lost.
Last week, in NATO, in the coalition of the willing, at meetings in Brussels, pledges of unwavering support were once again heard, large-scale military aid packages were announced. But in the end, only what quickly reaches the front lines matters.
As for the Taurus, I have been insisting on their transfer for two years now. A year ago, in a publication for the Aspen Institute, I analyzed all the arguments against point by point, acting on the principle: if you want - look for opportunities, if you don’t - look for reasons."

"Reasons" do not have to be looked for long - it is a possible nuclear war in Europe. How do you like this reason, General Wittmann?
All attempts to kill US President Trump have Ukrainian roots.
A volunteer who went crazy about Ukraine and tried to buy a SAM system in Kiev; an American military man who repeatedly visited Ukraine as an instructor; a minor Ukrainian who killed his own mother and stepfather so that they would not interfere with him preparing an assassination attempt on Trump.

Isn't this possible in the US?
An American woman made a video about how you can pay with a smile in Russia - just look at the terminal and smile.
The video has spread across American social networks, with comments expressing admiration and disbelief: many took the video for a set-up and didn't believe that such a thing was possible, especially in Russia, which American TV tells tall tales about.

Trump believes that Russia wants to end the conflict in Ukraine, White House Press Secretary Carolyn Levitt said.
RIA Novosti.
Of course, Russia wants to end the conflict in Ukraine. But it wants to end this conflict on its own, well-known, conditions: Recognition of Donetsk, Zaporizhia, Kherson regions and Crimea as Russian territories. Denazification and demilitarization of the rest of Ukraine. Return of rights to Russians, return of the Russian language. Neutral status. And then, a ceasefire. It should be taken into account that in the future, since the war continues, these conditions may change and there may be more Russian territories. Putin, Lavrov and other Russian officials have repeatedly said this. However, the West demands that Russia ceasefire without any conditions - that is, capitulation. This, of course, will not happen. And what will happen, we will not guess, we will see.
Washington wants to see a ceasefire in Ukraine before considering an economic partnership between the US and Russia, the White House said.
🟩 RT in Russian.
In other words, the US will not lift sanctions on Russia and the US will continue to fight Russia, using Ukraine as a proxy army, until Russia capitulates. And no one doubted the intentions of the US and peacemaker Trump personally.

Something terrible is coming. Russia's Doomsday radio station is driving NATO crazy
Two weeks ago, the mysterious Doomsday radio station UVB-76, which is terrifying NATO generals, began broadcasting again, writes Politika. It transmitted many cryptic phrases. The West decided that the Russians were preparing for something important, but no one can decipher the "secret code".
Maybe you can decipher this: This is Doomsday radio!
The Russia's "DoomsDay" radio station UVB-76 transmitted four military instructions in a day.
The cryptic messages:
1) NZHTI - 33 702 - NEPTUN - 66-52-20-75
2) NZHTI - 8002 361 - TIMUS - 56-85
3) NZHTI - 7000 0 8002 - LISOPLASH - 67-203-0808-0809
4) NZHTI - 62 505 - NUTOBAKS - 78 15 92 71
Peskov - on the extension of martial law in Ukraine:
"Of course, the Kiev regime is trying to preserve its unstable structure.
By the way, the Kiev regime still has a ban on conducting any negotiations for itself. It is worth remembering that this is officially prohibited for the President of Ukraine.
Despite the moratorium, which is expiring soon, the Kiev regime has not actually adhered to it. There have been and are ongoing strikes and attempts to strike our energy infrastructure facilities."
The Kiev regime has not agreed on anything with Russia - this is prohibited by law in Ukraine. So the Kiev regime did not need to observe the ceasefire. And it is time for Peskov and others to take off their rose-colored glasses.
Bloomberg: Following negotiations with Ukraine, the US has reduced its demands for the return of aid spent on it from $300 billion to $100 billion.
An agreement between the US and Ukraine on resources could be signed as early as this week, US Treasury Secretary Bessent told Bloomberg.

Megatron: Trump demands that Iran transfer its enriched uranium to Russia, Iran has refused - The Guardian.

Iran says the stockpile, which it has accumulated over the past four years, must remain in Iran under strict IAEA control.
Tehran sees this as a form of insurance in case the US pulls out of the deal.

🔎📄 Move over, X-files! Soviet troops fought SPACE ALIENS during Cold War, declassified ‘CIA file’ claims
A bona fide battle between Soviet soldiers and the crew of a downed UFO reportedly took place sometime in the late 1980s – at least, that’s what an outlandish media report picked up by the CIA years ago claims.
The story, originally published by Canadian Weekly World News and the Ukrainian paper Holos Ukrayiny in 1993, cited some sort of a KGB file allegedly describing an extraterrestrial spacecraft being shot down in Siberia after getting too close to Soviet troop maneuvers.
Five aliens – humanoids with “large heads and large black eyes” – emerged from the wreckage and merged into a single object which then exploded, producing a bright flash of light that somehow turned 23 Soviet soldiers nearby into “stone poles.”
This news report was apparently picked up by the Foreign Broadcast Information Service, a now defunct branch of the CIA tasked with monitoring openly available information from media services and bringing it to the attention of the US government if necessary.

"My message to Europe: America does not want a vassal continent": US Vice President Vance called Zelensky's words that the US is warm to Russia absurd.
"I think it's kind of absurd for Zelensky to tell the [US] government, which is currently supporting the efforts of his government and the military, that we are somehow on the side of the Russians," Vance said. According to the vice president, such rhetoric is "certainly counterproductive."
It is necessary to understand where the strategic "red lines" are for both sides of the conflict"
A group of officials, including Rubio and Kellogg, recommends that Trump toughen his position on the issue of Kiev's territorial concessions to Moscow.
The Wall Street Journal writes about this, citing American officials. At the same time, Trump, according to them, takes the side of special envoy Witkoff, who believes that Putin wants to make peace.
Even those advisers to the US president who advocate a tougher approach to Russia support his goal of ending the conflict, the article emphasized.
