Ser ut som russerne har gjort en god informasjonskrigsjobb her.
Here is my read of the "peace plan" and how Kirill Dmitriev played the American media to force this thing into being -- with an incompetent White House scrambling to make it seem like this was somehow coordinated and well-planned. open.substack.com/pub/macspaun...
“He Must Have Got This From K.”
How a Russian operative used the American media to force a risible “peace deal” into existence

Some notable things in what's being called the "Trump peace plan" but which could not have been more clearly written in Moscow if it came with a 2 for 1 deal on tickets to the Bolshoi Ballet. 🧵

Hvem dør først, mediene eller KI selskapene? (Eller økosystemene 🫣)
Hvis det fortsetter å være mulig å stjele alt mediene lager, er det game over.
Men individualistiske KI-guruer klarer antagelig ikke se for seg at det kan ligge fellesskap i en avis. Kanskje ligger svaret for mediene den veien.

This so-called “U.S.–Russia peace framework” is total BS. 🚨 It’s just Putin’s trick to delay the new U.S. sanctions hitting #Lukoil and #Rosneft on Nov 21 sanctions that can wreck his economy. If talks were real, Ukraine & the EU would be at the table, not random #Kremlin proxies who decide nothing.

Protection that worked against Russian strikes wasn't replicated across Ukraine's grid.
Why? Surveillance tapes caught Energoatom officials demanding kickbacks. The executive who built 60 successful shelters? Prosecuted. Western funding? Collapsed.

Ukraine’s blackouts were avoidable. Energoatom corruption and political vendetta made them inevitable.
The blueprint existed. The funding existed. What happened instead reveals an institutional collapse more damaging than Russian missiles alone.
