Russians sunk several barges at the entrance of their naval port pier in Novorossiysk, so that no other Ukrainian drone can enter it.

This also confines the remnants of the Russian Black Sea Fleet to this little basin. Russians literally barricaded themselves. Embarrassing..

We share more than geography with the Western Balkans.
We share responsibility for Europe’s security.

This is why the EU is stepping up security and defence cooperation with the region and reinforcing joint response against hybrid threats and foreign interference.

Our future lies together.

One of the biggest reasons why better cities are hard to achieve is the powerful proven psychology of “status quo bias.” No matter how bad an idea was in the first place, once it’s in place, our “loss aversion” means we will fight irrationally hard to protect it from any change to something better.

From the new chief of Britain's MI6:
"Hundreds of thousands have died, with the toll mounting every day, because of Putin’s historical distortions and his compromised desire for respect. He is dragging out negotiations and shifting the cost of war onto his own population."

Merz compares Putin to Hitler: 1938 is the historical analogy for Russia’s war.

If Ukraine falls, Putin won't stop. Just like in 1938 when Sudetenland wasn’t enough. Anyone who thinks he’s done should analyze his strategies.

Russia will never respect any peace agreement.

The United States will never make good on any security guarantee.

This war will go on forever until Russia is defeated and utterly destroyed.

CBC just reported that Trump’s new security strategy would “reward” political movements abroad that align with MAGA priorities. This could mean U.S. influence campaigns right here in Canada — at the same time some Conservatives are mirroring U.S. culture-war politics.
