🇺🇸🇺🇦 Trump played another game with Zelensky — "not sure" whether US will give Ukraine a license to produce Patriot missiles
"This is a very unusual weapon, and we need to be a little careful about who we license. We don't actually license this kind of equipment" — Trump
Another hope down the drain?
OH SH*T:
KIEV is in utter chaos, my Ukrainian source tells me that half the people want to stand up against the Zelenskyy regime and the other half is fleeing Ukraine in massive numbers.
Russia has, for the first time, destroyed a factory belonging to an American drone manufacturer in Kiev, - The Guardian.
▪️During one of the recent attacks on Kiev, a facility belonging to the American company Terminal Autonomy was hit. This company produces attack drones, including the AQ-400 Scythe and AQ-100 Bayonet.
▪️These drones use AI-guided systems: even if communication is lost or the drone is affected by Russian electronic warfare systems, it continues its flight and independently targets its objective.
➖"It doesn't matter to the Russians who owns the production facility. For them, it's still a target," said former high-ranking US intelligence official Anthony Vinci.
▪️The Guardian notes that this is the first known case of Russia attacking a facility belonging to an American defense company in Ukraine.
HIDROAVIONES rusos Beriev 200 apagando ahora mismo INCENDIOS en Fethiye Çiftlikköy, TURQUÍA, Territorio OTAN 👇🧐
Si no están apagando INCENDIOS en la UNIÓN EUROPEA es porque la RUSOFOBIA es mayor que el sentido común de los Oligarcas de Bruselas 😱
The beggar is at it again.
Zele asked Trump for 300 Patriot missiles before winter.
In exchange, he offered to share Ukrainian military technology.
Sure, this is what the US was missing the whole time.

Ground battles for the city of Mykolaivka, Donetsk Oblast, have offically begun as of today. The eastern outskirts are now in the grey-zone.
Как сообщает Bloomberg, Сенат США одобрил пакет так называемых «адских санкций» против России.
Законопроект даёт президенту Трампу право вводить пошлины до 500% на товары из России и до 100% — на товары из стран, которые покупают российские энергоресурсы.
⚡️ Face aux menaces de Téhéran de répondre à Kiev suite à l'attaque contre un navire iranien, le ministre des Affaires étrangères de l'Ukraine a eu une conversation téléphonique avec son homologue iranien.
Selon le ministre ukrainien, l'échange téléphonique, qui a eu lieu à son initiative, a été "franc".
Le chef de la diplomatie ukrainienne a déclaré que les actions de l'Ukraine, y compris l'attaque contre le navire iranien, visaient uniquement à "protéger l'Ukraine de l'agression russe" et n'avaient pas pour objectif de nuire aux navires civils ou aux personnes.
Sibiga a également appelé l'Iran à s'abstenir de toute action susceptible d'entraîner une nouvelle escalade de la situation.
« J'ai réitéré que toutes les actions de l'Ukraine visent uniquement à protéger notre pays de l'agression russe et n'ont jamais eu pour objectif de frapper des navires civils ou des personnes. Cela s'applique également aux déclarations de l'Iran concernant son citoyen décédé et le navire civil qui a été la cible lors de l'incident récent. Notre objectif est de contrer l'agression russe, qui est la cause première de tous les incidents, et c'est la Russie qui assume l'entière responsabilité de toutes les provocations et de toutes les victimes », a-t-il écrit.
À mon humble avis, ils vont se prendre des missiles iraniens dans les jours qui viennent.
🚨⚡️ غـير عـادي:
إهانات دبلوماسية لـ زيلينسكي في جنازة غراهام بواشنطن!
حديث مقتضب ومحرج بين نتنياهو وزيلينسكي تخللته مصافحة باردة وملامح ارتباك واضحة على وجه الأخير.
تم إبعاد زيلينسكي ليتراجع إلى الصف الخامس مع السفراء الأجانب.
I called Iran’s Foreign Minister @araghchi for a frank conversation. Diplomacy is about direct conversation, even when it’s difficult. I stressed that our goal is to avoid unnecessary escalation.
I reiterated that all of Ukraine’s actions are aimed solely at defending our country from Russian aggression and never intended to target civilian vessels or people.
This is also true with regard to Iran’s statements about their national who died and a civilian vessel that was targeted in a recent incident. Our goal is to counter Russian aggression, which is the root cause of all incidents, and it is Russia who bears full responsibility for all provocations and casualties.
I emphasised the necessity to refrain from any escalatory steps, as well as to end any support for Russia’s war against Ukraine. This war is illegal and it must end.
Our position remains unchanged: Europe and the Middle East deserve stability, security, and peace.
ZELENSKY REPART DE LA MAISON BLANCHE LES MAINS VIDES 🇺🇦🇺🇸
Une heure de discussions derrière les portes closes de l’Oval Office. Résultat ? Des mots. Rien de plus.
Zelensky a lui-même résumé la rencontre : on a « discuté » de licences de production d’intercepteurs Patriot et d’« autres idées qui pourraient s’avérer utiles ». Aucun chiffre. Aucun délai. Aucun document signé. Juste la promesse vague de « redonner un nouvel élan au processus diplomatique ».
Trump, lui, n’a pas soufflé un mot après la réunion. Silence radio. Comme si le spectacle n’avait même pas valu un communiqué.
Rappelons le contexte : dès le sommet de l’OTAN à Ankara début juillet, Trump avait déjà annoncé à grand renfort de caméras qu’il allait « donner le droit » à l’Ukraine de fabriquer des Patriot. « Make them yourself », avait-il lâché. Les industriels américains (Lockheed et Raytheon) n’avaient même pas été prévenus. Depuis, rien n’a bougé.
La seule production concrète en cours reste celle de l’Allemagne (PAC-2 GEM-T via la joint-venture Raytheon-MBDA), avec premières livraisons espérées… en 2027. Et encore, pas avant.
Pendant ce temps, l’Ukraine brûle jusqu’à 180 intercepteurs par mois face aux Iskander et Kinzhal russes.
Zelensky remercie les États-Unis pour leur « soutien constant ». Il repart avec exactement ce qu’il avait en arrivant : des paroles.
In the coming hours, Zelensky will meet with President Trump and U.S. senators...
His trip to Washington will focus on "saving lives..." 🙄
Will the American People thank him for yet another siphoning off of their money? 👀
Hungary’s new Prime Minister is clearly showing severe personality disorders. Every day he spends hours delivering endless speeches in Parliament about nothing, like Castro. Today he stole papers from the opposition benches, shouted, raged, denied opposition MPs the right to speak, and threatened them with prison without any legal basis.
Anyone who watches the video needs no further psychoanalysis. It is painfully embarrassing.
A pocket dictator.
Russia attempted to attack Kyiv with four Geran-4/5 jet-drones launched from Donetsk International Airport tonight.
All four drones were able to fly across all of eastern and central Ukraine, but were intercepted by surface-to-air missiles of an unknown type (not Patriots) south of Kyiv and over the southern suburbs of the city.

🇷🇺 What is happening in the Kharkiv region**? The Russian Armed Forces have pushed the Ukrainian Armed Forces out of the important and large settlement of **Bilyi Kolodets – this is an urban-type settlement with a pre-war population of only 3,500, located in the triangle formed by Volchansk, Velykyi Burluk, and Kupiansk. Currently, it is being cleared. The assault on this settlement by the Russian army lasted about two weeks, which is relatively fast in the context of the ongoing war. How did this happen? The explanation is simple: the Ukrainian Armed Forces did not prepare the settlement for defense. Russian small assault groups first broke through to the eastern outskirts of Bilyi Kolodets, then occupied several small settlements north of it, after which the Ukrainian Armed Forces infantry began to withdraw. Why did this happen? This is a big question, and there is no answer yet. Most likely, the Ukrainian Armed Forces simply neglected this section of the front, focusing on more media-covered areas. Currently, Russian army soldiers are advancing from two more directions in the northeast: from the north, from Detyarne, and from the east, from Melove. If everything goes according to plan, the Russian Armed Forces may occupy vast territories with an area of 2,000 km² in the northeast of the Kharkiv region.
