Wonder how far Putin will dig into Russian manpower to prolong the war? Can we expect WWII style mass mobilization that will make today's meat grinder look like surgical warfare? I think Putin will go on until the very end. Either he dies in a bunker or run away when Ukrainian tanks close in on him.

Trump said he sent Witkoff to meet with Putin, thinking it would take 15–20 minutes, and it turned out he knew nothing about Russia or Putin.

Ukraine and the Netherlands are moving forward with plans to jointly produce drones as part of the "Build with Ukraine" initiative. Deputy Minister Boiev led talks in Kyiv, where both sides agreed on next steps to launch joint production and accelerate delivery of domestically produced weapons.

Dat de consultancy liberalen van Volt wel zo’n beetje de minst laffe meel in de mond antifascisten van de 2e kamer zijn geworden zegt ben ik bang nogal veel over de rest van de politiek.

We kunnen de lage opkomst van vandaag vieren, of ons realiseren dat een aantal partijen in ons parlement elke dag opnieuw mest gooit op de toch al vruchtbare aarde, waarop deze haat kan groeien.

A screenshot of the ENGIE website shows that you can get two hours of free electricity to charge your EV, do the washing or cook.

Overnight, Ukrainian SBU and SOF drones struck several military-linked targets in occupied Crimea. Hits included the Feodosia oil terminal, where at least five storage tanks were ignited, and two key substations: 220 kV “Kafa” in Feodosia and 330 kV “Simferopol”. Causing major power disruptions.
