Zelenskyy:

The strikes on Putin's residence in Valdai are a fake
Is this related to the sanctions?Maybe a little bit,it's more related to the fact that there was a pretty successful conversation&positive meeting between our teams over the course of a month,which culminated in our meeting with Trump

Die erfolgreiche Friedenspolitik der Vergangenheit beruhte auf transatlantischer, europäischer und deutscher Abschreckungsfähigkeit. Diese Fähigkeit müssen wir wiederherstellen. Wir müssen uns verteidigen können, damit wir uns nicht verteidigen müssen.

A South African oligarch and a Russian politician are trying to decide Europe’s future.

Fortunately, all smart Europeans understand that they don’t have our best interests in mind

“The lesson is clear. Together, European financing and Ukrainian ingenuity can build an effective deterrent against external threats, even as the US pulls back.”
“Ukraine’s experience since February 2022 has upended long-held assumptions about the economics of war — from the belief that size and industrial capacity are a guarantee of victory to misunderstandings about mobilisation, logistics and adaptability.”
Ukraine, Europe and the new economics of war
By maintaining stability and innovating to hold out against Russia, Kyiv has shown that size matters less in conflict than it used to

Das neue Wehrdienstgesetz ist ein zentraler Baustein unserer sicherheitspolitischen Strategie. Es ist eine direkte Antwort auf die Bedrohungslage in Europa, die durch den russischen Angriffskrieg entstanden ist.

First moments after the Russian attack on a daycare in Kharkiv.

Kids crying for their moms, rescuers and civilians rushing to get them out of the building...

Russia launched a Yars intercontinental ballistic missile toward a test site in Kamchatka - essentially in the direction of the United States.

In the Barents Sea, the nuclear-powered submarine Bryansk launched a Sineva ballistic missile.

Putin's peace and peaceful intentions.

President Zelenskyy to President Trump in the White House:

I think that, yes, we understand that Putin is not ready. But I think that I'm confident that with your help we can stop this war.
And we really need it. We see that they don't have successful steps on the battlefield, and it's good.

President Stubb:

Power politics is back, spheres of interest is back, Russian imperialism is not gone, so start adjusting.

Right now we're living in a 1918, 1945, or 1989 moment in world history. And now we're in a similar situation. We just don't know where the world is going to go.

Russian officials continue pursuing an anti-Finland rhetoric:

Finland is becoming a hotbed of fascism, and the irresponsible policy of its leadership could lead to a conflict with Russia, Andrey Kartapolov, head of the State Duma's defense committee, said

So, apparently a new Ukrainian cruise missile has entered the chat.

3,000+ km range, 1,000 kg payload capacity. That's the long-range, heavy-hitter Ukraine has been waiting for.

The fact that this leaked today is unlikely to be a coincidence.

Dass sieben Staatslenker Selenskyj in die USA begleiten, bewertet Militärexperte Carlo Masala als positiv. Die USA hätten Möglichkeiten, extremen Druck auf Selenskyj auszuüben.

President Macron:

We are talking about an imperialist and revisionist power that is today's Russia, which since 2008 has constantly sought to conquer new territories, has constantly revised international borders, and has never kept its promises of peace and non-aggression.

Putin's declaration of "brotherly love" for #Ukraine and what it looks like in reality.

Putin is a maniac and a sadist.
We know who we're dealing with.
Peace through force and ironclad security guarantees for Ukraine are needed. Putin's promises are worthless.
