Before taking any public action, I take behind-the-scenes steps toward de-escalation. At the intelligence and military levels, Belarus received a message: stop helping the Russians. The issue with the relay stations has been ongoing for a long time, and it has resulted in casualties solely on the Ukrainian side. They are technically coordinating this and helping Russian and Iranian drones strike Ukrainians with greater precision. Lukashenko received this information – and he must demonstrate de-escalation with more than just the words “I’m sorry.” He can keep his “apology” to himself. It has meant nothing since the first day of the war.
Step one is to end all technical support. A relay station constitutes direct support. Turn it off, remove it, and show us that it has been removed. Since this message was conveyed to them repeatedly, we have now reached the stage of issuing a public signal. If he does not remove it, we will remove everything ourselves. Similarly, we’re sending a message: please stop supplying fuel to the Russian army. There are no threats here. We’re simply saying that we see what’s happening. The first steps are always behind the scenes, but the next steps are different.

Legend of the Russian auto industry humiliated: sales of the new “Volga” in Russia started in disgrace
The first buyers of the “Volga” K40 were unable to leave the dealership because it broke down.
Earlier, it was already noted that the model is almost entirely a copy of the Chinese Geely Monjaro, but costs about three times more, differing only in minor details such as an enlarged washer fluid tank.
Trump publicly fighting with a woman is already embarrassing for a leader of his stature.
Doing it with an Italian woman? Big mistake. You don’t mess with Italian women and expect to come out on top.
Every smart man who knows us knows this. 🇮🇹
Meloni’s response:
“As for my popularity, being your friend certainly has not helped it, nor does it depend on my relationship with you.
My popularity depends on my ability to defend Italy’s national interest, and that is exactly what I have always done.
Italy remains a sovereign nation.
In any case, my popularity is none of your concern. I suggest you focus on yours.”

Trump lost this one.
Konflikt między Polską i Ukrainą cieszy Putina i szokuje naszych sojuszników. Zadaniem prezydentów Zelenskiego i Nawrockiego jest tonowanie emocji, a nie podsycanie napięcia. Linia frontu przebiega gdzie indziej.
Another two ships have left the Irish port since this video, straight to russia.
Important to remember this hasn’t slowed down. Ireland is still helping the Kremlins war machine. Aughinish still operates.
Regarding Belarus.
When the full-scale war began, we were hit by missiles that killed children and adults. And Alexander Lukashenko knows this. A large number of missiles were launched from Belarus. Back then, he called, apologized, and said it was out of his control. I don’t believe that, but that’s what he’s already said. Now, Russia will keep pushing him further into this war. Now, he understands that Ukraine will respond.
There’s no need for extra words. There are retransmitters on his communication towers. On his territory, along the two regions bordering Ukraine, there is equipment that adjusts fire on our people. He should remove that equipment. I think a week is enough for him to do that. Because right now, every day, our civilians are being killed, and children are being wounded as a result of this. If he doesn’t do it, we will.
The same goes for his oil-refining sector, for example. We are doing everything so that the Russians don’t have the ability to sell oil and supply diesel and fuel to their army. Today, Belarus is one of the key suppliers for the Russian army. Can this be stopped? I’m sure it’s within his power. And he is the one who controls it.
As for the drone strike on a bus with Belarusian children, everyone has already acknowledged it – international experts and, it seems, even the Russians are admitting it wasn’t our strike. The Russians will resort to all sorts of provocations to drag the Belarusian people into this war. This is one of them.
From the joint press interaction with the President of Honduras, Nasry Asfura. (1/3)
One of the most popular questions asked by Muscovites this morning is “What is going on?”
I can answer. Your country started a war of aggression against ours. For years, it has been killing our people.
Now that you know what’s going on, ask Putin when he is planning to end it.
Did you notice how Russians didn't run to the shelter?
They are just standing by the windows filming a video.
Nobody is destroying their homes while they sleep, nobody is destroying millennia-old temples, museums, theaters, and schools…
Australian World Cup fans were caught chanting:
“Aussie boys are on a bender, Donald Trump is a sex offender.”
The tournament is barely underway and the chants are already in midseason form. 💀
In June 2014, after Russia annexed Crimea and began its military aggression against Ukraine, it was decided to hold the G7 summit in Brussels instead of Sochi and without Russia’s participation. Russia’s membership was suspended until it "changes its political course."
Today, in June 2026, Ukraine has been invited to the G7 summit. Ukraine is now present along the world’s leading powers, and Russia is not part of it.
The leaders of the G7 countries have agreed to tighten sanctions against Russian oil and gas exports.
When Notre-Dame burned in 2019, the world stopped.
Today, Russia damages Kyiv Pechersk Lavra, a monastery nearly 1,000 years old and older than Notre-Dame itself.
A thousand years of history deserves the same attention, the same sympathy, and the same protection.
Чергова масована атака рашистів на Київ. П’ятеро загиблих, багато поранених, серед них малі діти. Також варварський повторний удар по Харкову. Загинули рятувальники, які ліквідовували наслідки обстрілу. Співчуття всім, хто зазнав біди і втратив близьких.
Також росіяни атакували Києво-Печерську лавру – горів Успенський собор.
Кадри охопленої полум’ям давньої християнської святині – ще один доказ геноцидного характеру розв’язаної росією війни проти України: вони прагнуть знищити наш родовід, нашу ідентичність, нашу культурну спадщину.
Цілеспрямований удар по Лаврі - це злочин проти християнської віри та усього світового православ’я. Підла сутність росії – у тактиці випаленої землі, яку окупант постійно відтворює. Під час Другої світової чекісти вже руйнували Успенський собор, але незалежна Україна відновила святиню.
Удар по Києво-Печерській лаврі – свідчення безпорадності й убогості, які прогресують у кремлівських коридорах. За весь терор, який скоїла росія, міжнародний тиск на неї мусить зростати.
Ми все відбудуємо та змусимо агресора заплатити за злочини.
It is important that the world does not remain silent in response to this latest act of Russian barbarism. This strike on the Lavra is an attack on the Christian community and on the cultural heritage of humanity. There can be no justification for this or for any other similar Russian attacks. What is needed is more cooperation to stop Russia’s war and stronger protection to save lives from Russia.
La Laure de Kyiv-Pechersk, l'un des hauts lieux de l'orthodoxie ukrainienne inscrit au patrimoine mondial de l'humanité de l'UNESCO, a été touchée cette nuit dans l'importante frappe de missiles et de drones russes qui a, de nouveau, pris Kyiv pour cible et fait des victimes civiles.
Tout comme la guerre d’agression que mène la Russie contre l’Ukraine depuis plus de 4 ans, rien ne justifie cette attaque contre notre patrimoine universel.
La France se tient prête à coopérer avec les autorités ukrainiennes en charge du patrimoine.
Cette attaque ne fait que renforcer notre détermination à tout faire, avec nos alliés et partenaires, pour travailler à un cessez-le-feu que la Russie refuse toujours obstinément, puis à la paix. Nous y œuvrerons au G7, à Evian.
GUARDIAN: You said King Charles had raised Ukraine with Trump. Is he still helping you?
ZELENSKYY: Yes, but I will not tell you how.
GUARDIAN: What's he doing?
ZELENSKYY: No, I can't. It's up to His Majesty to answer such questions.
GUARDIAN: You have good relationship?
ZELENSKYY: Yeah, we have very good relationship. We and Ukraine love His Majesty.
You know, this morning when I spoke by phone with my wife, first of all — with all respect to Keir — my wife said, "Best regards to His Majesty." And then to Prime Minister, of course.
GUARDIAN: Would you like to invite King Charles to Kyiv to meet Ukrainian people one day?
ZELENSKYY: Between us, this very day, today, I want to invite him very much. I don't know from security point of view and so on. Yes, of course, we want to see him in Ukraine very much.
Think twice next time, before sending a stool sample for testing: an unsuspecting lab worker might spot your E. coli, triggering concern in the US intelligence community, forcing them to upgrade the poor lab to BSL-4, spiraling into full-on bioterror panic over your feces samples
