‼️Stunning statements by the Belgian Prime Minister at an event in Brussels this week.

🔹It's an illusion that Russia will lose in Ukraine
🔹If they lose, instability is bad because of nuclear weapons
🔹I have been personally threatened by Russia if their assets are seized

Wow.

First quality public photo of China’s trimaran semi-sub.

Second image is my sketch based on satellite imagery while it was hidden under tarps(!). Of course some differences, but I was right it is a semi-sub(!). Overall pleased how much I got right

one reason "great power competition" is a bad description of the emerging order is that an interlinked global kleptocracy does not care about national interests or rivalries

This is one of the most important exposés published in WSJ in several years, and it derives from intercepts and analyses by foreign intelligence services studying the conduct of Trump and his inner team. It's first and foremost a wake up call to the people of the United States.
Make Money Not War: Trump’s Real Plan for Peace in Ukraine

Reportedly, this is a sea drone attack on Russian shadow fleet tankers yesterday.

The tankers were empty, headed to Russian Novorossiysk.

Congress must step in. Trump must be stopped. This would break multiple treaties and violate international law.

Any legal recognition of Russian territorial grabs puts us all in danger. It must be stopped, and if not, reversed by the next administration.

There's only two points to understanding current US–Russia relations.

1. Russia's war began in 1999; Ukraine is only the middle of Putin's plans. He can't move on to the next phase without first mobilizing Ukraine's massive resources and strategic location.

What should have been released in the first place!
Putin will never agree to terms like this while he still thinks he has even a glimmer of a chance of victory. Signing this would be the effective end of Putin’s rule.

Russian MPs are not even trying to hide that Russia has no intention of abiding by any peace agreement.

As I've said before, we're discussing the points of a peace plan without Russia that doesn't care for it and shows no readiness for peace.

EUROPE+ ITS TIME TO STAND UP

This time there must be no running to Washington to change Trump’s mind. No leader or group of leaders should go there. It should be a flat and very simple statement that America, this is none of your business now. It’s our and Ukraine’s security. We will buy from you

🧐🇺🇸 Moscow "does not seek to attack the Baltic states," - Trump

According to him, Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia have "no reason to worry" because "the Ukrainian conflict will be resolved."

P.S. The Baltics are next, I hope you understand that… 🇱🇹🇱🇻🇪🇪

For what it’s worth, as a commander and officer it was my duty, moral obligation, and legal requirement to first question and then to not obey any illegal order I was given.

The same is true for everyone who swear their oath.

Hope that clears things up.
