"China told the EU that it cannot allow Russia to lose the war with Ukraine": Chinese Foreign Minister told Kallas that if Beijing had helped Russia, the war would have ended long ago.
"According to several sources familiar with the negotiations, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi said during a meeting with EU Foreign Minister Kaja Kallas that Beijing does not want Russia to lose in Ukraine, as it fears that in this case the US will shift all its attention to Beijing.
During the meeting, Wang Yi rejected accusations that Beijing supported the special operation both financially and militarily, saying that if it had entered the game, the conflict would have ended long ago.
Another topic that the minister touched on in his conversation with Kallas was the inclusion of Chinese banks in the 18th package of anti-Russian sanctions of the EU. Beijing promised to respond to this measure"

Trump said following his conversation with Putin that he was not satisfied with the discussion of the Ukrainian issue.
According to him, no progress was allegedly achieved.

What progress can there be? Russia has not achieved its goals in Ukraine and it is not known when it will achieve them. When Russia achieves its goals, then "progress" will be achieved in the negotiations. More precisely, then peace will come without any negotiations. And if someone in the West does not like this peace, which is quite possible, then Russia will have to fight with those who do not like peace with Russia. The West is preparing for war with Russia. Of course, the United States would like to establish its control over at least part of Ukraine, but they will not fight Russia over this. But Britain, Germany and other "Entente" countries really want to see Russian missiles explode in their countries. We can repeat it.
The United Kingdom is playing a leading role in the proxy war with Russia in Ukraine, according to investigative journalist The Grayzone.
Keith Clarenberg, in an interview with RT host Rick Sanchez, recalled that the British were behind the strikes on the Crimean Bridge in October 2022. The organizer was Chris Donnelly, who worked as an adviser to NATO, he noted:
"We have published his correspondence with senior British military officials, in which he discusses the fact that the Biden administration's reluctance to fully engage in a proxy war must be countered at any cost."
Clarenberg added that many consider MI6 to be a tool of the CIA, but the British service acts based on its own interests.

The West's goal of inflicting a strategic defeat on Russia has not gone away. In order to win, Russia must take control of all of Ukraine. Whether the Russian Armed Forces have such a task or not, I do not know. All other options for ending the war are Russia's defeat. Having started this war, Russia had to inflict a demonstrative, crushing, quick defeat on Ukraine so that others would not want to fight with Russia. But we have what we have.
Finnish President Stubb on the fact that Ukraine is doing well and the conflict must continue:
Ukraine is showing good results on the military front. President Zelensky showed President Trump a map showing that Russia has captured only 0.25% of the territory this year. And this, of course, happened with terrible, colossal losses.
So they are not making big breakthroughs. Yes, they are advancing, but this is not a large-scale advance. Therefore, we just need to continue, grind this war and support Ukraine as much as possible.
Bad news. Hero of Russia, Major General Mikhail Evgenievich Gudkov died as a result of an attack on one of the front lines. Until recently, he held the post of Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Russian Navy - he was appointed to this position in the spring of 2025. Eternal memory to the hero!

The United States is stopping supplying Ukraine with ammunition for several months, the NYT writes.
The supplies are suspended for interceptors for the Patriot air defense system, high-precision artillery ammunition, and missiles that the Ukrainian Air Force uses for the F-16, the publication clarifies.
The suspension of arms supplies to Ukraine does not mean that Washington is completely stopping military aid to Kiev, the State Department reports.
The United States warned Ukraine in advance about the suspension of supplies of a number of types of weapons, said State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce.
The Pentagon does not specify what weapons the United States continues to transfer to Ukraine. The corresponding statement was made by the US Assistant Secretary of Defense for Public Affairs Sean Parnell.
The Kiev leadership expects that European countries will purchase weapons from the United States for Ukraine. Politico writes about this. TASS
The suspension of US arms supplies to Kiev indicates Washington's withdrawal from the conflict, the NYT writes.
According to the newspaper, the US decision "caught Kiev authorities by surprise."
Dmitry Peskov said that the US simply ran out of weapons in its warehouses.
Iranian MP Boroujerdi on Iran continuing its uranium enrichment program:
They say we shouldn't have it. They say our current stockpiles need to be eliminated. This is absolutely illogical. Iran must respond. Trump has hinted several times about "zeroing out" uranium enrichment - of course, this proposal is completely useless.
We have already made concessions. Our scientists have been killed, our nuclear facilities have been attacked. And now we are making it absolutely clear: without any concessions - we will not give up our legal right.

"Germany will not become a party to the war," Chancellor Merz justifies himself. Probably, Macron said roughly the same thing, having finally reached the Kremlin by phone yesterday evening - after all, it was his missiles that struck the center of Donetsk two days ago.
Merz said that he discussed with Zelensky and Kyiv's Western partners the issue of training Ukrainians to handle the Taurus long-range missiles, which will take "months."
"It was always clear that when we deliver Taurus, these weapons are not used by German soldiers, but by Ukrainian ones, as, by the way, are other cruise missiles delivered from Great Britain or France. Now we have a problem in that this system is extremely complex, and there are at least six of them. It will take months to train soldiers on it.
Merz assures that training has not yet begun:
We have not yet agreed on this. I talked about this with Zelensky, I talked about this in the coalition. We have not started doing this yet, this was and remains an option. But I also said that in the future we will not publicly discuss the question of what weapons we supply, what we do to provide military assistance to Ukraine, because I want Putin to make a certain choice. There is uncertainty about what we do militarily. Only one thing is certain, and I say it again: Germany will not become a party to the war.
It is possible that the missiles are already in Ukraine and the Germans who service them have become "Ukrainians".
Whether Germany will become a party to the war or not - only Putin can decide. And the Germans will find out that they have become a party to the war when Russian missiles fly to Germany.
The weapons and ammunition that the Pentagon has suspended from Ukraine include dozens of Patriot interceptors, more than 100 Hellfire missiles, and dozens of Stinger missiles, NBC reported, citing sources in the Pentagon and Congress.
White House spokeswoman Anna Kelly confirmed that the suspension of supplies is needed to "put U.S. interests first."

"The Latvian Ministry of Defense has announced Turkey's joining the "drone coalition," an international alliance dedicated to providing drones and related technologies to Ukraine.
The coalition now includes 20 countries, including the United Kingdom, France, Germany, the United States, Poland, Canada, the Baltic states, and others. In total, the member countries of the international drone coalition have pledged to allocate 2.75 billion euros to support Ukraine this year. And the joint procurement fund of the drone coalition, led by the UK, has received a total of about 180 million euros.
Three Democratic senators have announced an investigation into the Trump administration over a five-month pause in sanctions against the Russian military-industrial complex.
They are demanding that sanctions be resumed and that pressure on Moscow be increased.
Merz wants to make a secret deal with Trump on the supply of weapons to Kiev, Bild reports.
The US decision to suspend the supply of certain weapons to Ukraine has caused concern in Berlin. According to the publication's sources, the lack of missiles for the Patriot system is a serious problem for the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
Therefore, the German authorities are waiting for the Pentagon's approval to transfer two Patriot air defense systems to Ukraine, which will be funded by the German government, the article states.

London is trying to stir up tensions between Baku and Moscow, Turkish political scientist Engin Ozer told RIA Novosti.
At a time when the Istanbul peace talks on Ukraine may enter the "final process" in the near future, some external forces are trying to prolong the conflict.
The London administration, which has achieved "significant success" in this regard in 2022 by disrupting the Istanbul agreements, will probably want to stir up tensions between Baku and Moscow and drag Turkey into this process.

❗️Russians in Azerbaijan have filed complaints about the use of physical violence, document checks, and visits by unknown persons, the Russian Embassy reported. Azerbaijan has not responded to notes demanding consular access to the arrested Russians, the Russian Embassy in Baku reported.
The Russian Embassy in Baku asks Russians in Azerbaijan to report any cases of physical violence against them.
The mother of Russian Sofronov, who was detained in Baku, believes the charges against him are absurd. The woman told TASS that she saw her son a week ago in Azerbaijan, where he worked from morning until evening:
"What, did he turn into a drug dealer in a week? In a city where he doesn't know anyone?"
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs calls on Russian citizens in Azerbaijan to exercise increased caution and prudence.
Russians should take into account the situation in the country when planning a trip there. If problems arise, it is recommended to immediately contact the Russian Embassy in Baku.
Is the West opening a second front against Russia? I won't be surprised at all. And the reason for this is the protracted war in Ukraine. You understand that Russia is not fighting with Ukraine. But those with whom Russia is fighting are not suffering any losses in this war. They are not afraid of Russia or Putin. And this is in vain.
The CIA has admitted that its intelligence assessment of alleged Russian interference in the 2016 US elections may have been politically motivated.
The audit found that the US intelligence report was compiled with “multiple procedural anomalies.”
The former CIA director John Brennan and former FBI director James Comey are responsible for the falsifications, the agency’s report says.
