Interested in defense topics, world politics and people who reveals the truth behind Chinese and Russian disinformation campaigns. I do not follow the herd!🇪🇺
When Bucha was de-occupied, the heinous truth about what was happening in the temporarily occupied territories was revealed to the world.
We will never forget the victims of this war, and we will certainly bring all Russian murderers to justice.
The Moscow region. Our long-range sanctions have produced results against logistics facilities and an oil depot. Thank you to the warriors of the Unmanned Systems Forces, our intelligence services, the Missile Forces and Artillery, and the Special Operations Forces. The targets were more than 400 kilometers from our border. Two shadow fleet tankers and four cargo ships were also struck in the Black Sea.
We are responding, justly, to every Russian strike against our cities and communities. This war must be brought to an end, and that is only possible by increasing the pressure on the sole cause of this war – Russia.
It’s obvious that Putin 🇷🇺 is trying to escalate out of his dilemma. Last night he fired 41 ballistic missiles and around 120 attack drones against Kyiv and other targets in 🇺🇦. It brings destruction - but will not break the determination of the 🇺🇦 nation.
Last night’s attack was one of the largest Russian ballistic missile attacks to date. Kyiv and the Kyiv region were the Russians’ primary target. They had been preparing this attack for several days, stockpiling missiles. The threat, of course, remains even now, and this must be taken into account. Russia is placing its wagers on ballistic missiles, and it is because of them that Putin still believes in his war.
It is very important that our partners understand what is happening and that air defense missiles are needed to protect lives literally every single day. It is important to accelerate everything – both with our European partners and with the United States.
It was hard to get the Estonian Parliament to ratify the EU loan to Greece when it was collapsing
Back then we were much poorer than Greece. Yet out of solidarity the parliament voted in favour.
Now Greece shows no solidarity, it's just out for itself.

Overnight, Russia carried out one of its largest ballistic missile attacks on Kyiv. The enemy launched more than 40 missiles of various types – most of them against the capital – and 120 attack drones.
As of now, one person has been reported killed in Kyiv and the region, and 16 others have been injured. My condolences to all their families and loved ones. Everyone affected is receiving the necessary medical care. Emergency response efforts are continuing at three locations, with nearly 600 first responders involved. The relevant services are also working in the Odesa region.
In total, over the course of this week, Russia has used around 1,450 attack drones, more than 1,640 guided aerial bombs, and 99 missiles of various types against Ukraine. People were injured in the Odesa region and Zaporizhzhia, and there was damage in the Sumy and Chernihiv regions. This week, the Vinnytsia, Dnipro, Donetsk, Zhytomyr, Kirovohrad, Mykolaiv, Poltava, Kharkiv, Kherson, and Cherkasy regions also came under Russian attack.
Protection against ballistic missiles is our constant and top priority right now. Interceptors are needed every day, and I am grateful to everyone who takes our agreements seriously and ensures the delivery of anti-ballistic capabilities. Right now, these packages are literally saving lives during every massive Russian attack. It is also essential that pressure on Russia continue alongside our work on anti-ballistic capabilities. Delays in adopting new decisions give Moscow the opportunity to plan not only new attacks against our people, but also ways to circumvent new sanctions. Thank you to everyone who is helping.
EU leaders should start using the word treason for parties that align with Moscow. They aren't "opposition", but the enemy working to fracture Europe from within. Ukraine has banned them and Europe must follow. Starting with this disgusting charlatan
‼️‼️🇺🇲🇮🇷🇨🇳🇷🇺 BREAKING | Tehran’s rogue regime has upgraded its lethal arsenal with foreign help—utilizing high-speed, hyper-maneuverable missiles to evade air defenses, Iran is now suspected of receiving direct targeting and intelligence support from Russia and China.
According to authoritative U.S. officials speaking to *The Wall Street Journal*, Iran has rapidly adapted its tactics to bypass advanced American anti-missile defense shields. The regime is actively deploying advanced ballistic missiles that travel at extreme speeds and execute unpredictable maneuvers during their final terminal phase, severely testing Western interception protocols. Alarmingly, U.S. intelligence has raised red flags over the dramatically improved accuracy of these strikes, pointing to a highly coordinated scheme where Moscow or Beijing may be feeding real-time satellite and coordinate data to Tehran.
This dangerous technological leap exposes the terrifying reality of a rising global axis of tyranny, where Russia, China, and Iran are actively pooling resources to undermine the United States and its global allies. As the U.S. Air Force continues its relentless precision bombardment of IRGC hubs in southern Iran, this intelligence report proves that Tehran is not acting alone—it is backed by the world's most dangerous autocracies. This desperate attempt by the Kremlin and Beijing to use Iran as a proxy testing ground against American tech will fail; it only strengthens Washington's ironclad resolve to dismantle this entire terror network and unleash overwhelming, decisive force to protect American troops and secure global stability.

If Putin 🇷🇺 was rational - which is highly doubtful - he would seek a ceasefire now. He’s stuck in Donbas, and further on and the situation with Crimea will put him politically in a far worse situation. My take on the situation for @prosyn https://t.co/kDn9nLIsh4
Popular far-left French politician Louis Boyard discreetly took off his Rolex worth $50,000 before giving an interview ‘denouncing the ultra-rich.’
Hypocrisy at its finest.
Wasn’t it rather Trump 🇺🇸 at the insistence of Putin 🇷🇺 abandoning his call for an immediate ceasefire and instead endorsing demand for territorial concessions first? But it’s true that Trump 🇺🇸 failed to deliver as 🇪🇺🇬🇧 backed up Zelensky 🇺🇦. And now Lavrov 🇷🇺 is unhappy with Trump 🇺🇸.
unless you have been sleeping for the past 6 years nothing new was said last night. it was public that china was hacking our voter rolls back in 2020. i guess the only person that didnt know it was trump... there were news stories about it then
Det blev en märklig dag inrikespolitiskt i Ukraina. Den nya regeringen under Serhij Koretskyj godkändes av Radan, men utan att försvarsministerposterna och utrikesministerposterna ingick och nu tar parlamentet sommarledigt till den 18/8. Protesterna⬇️ mot att försvarsminister Fedorov fått lämna sin post ledde till att man inte vågade gå emot folkviljan (protester har förekommit i fler städer och från många i försvaret och på andra håll har också kritik riktats mot beslutet) och den troligen tilltänkte nye försvarsministern, tidigare inrikesministern Ihor Klymenko hamnar nu utanför regeringen. Istället har Zelenskyj ikväll föreslagit att Jevhen Chmara, fram tills nu SBU-chef ska gå in som tillförordnad försvarsminister så länge.
Today, we express our special gratitude to Keir Starmer, Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, with whom we've done a lot of serious work during the full-scale war. The United Kingdom has always stood with Ukraine and continues to do so. And we value that immensely. Thank you, @Keir_Starmer. Thank you to your team and to all the people of the United Kingdom. I awarded Keir the Order of Freedom in recognition of his personal leadership and support for our people.
Prime Minister Starmer and I have had dozens of meetings, conversations, and decisions together. Today marks Keir's fourth visit to Ukraine as Prime Minister. Altogether, we've had 46 official meetings and calls alone – at least two every month. I am grateful for all the support provided to Ukraine during this time.
Today, Keir and I discussed the key issues regarding the front line, our long-range operations, and our mid-range strikes. Ukraine has achieved significant success in these areas, and we will continue applying every form of such pressure on Russia to bring this war to an end and achieve a dignified peace. We will, of course, continue coordinating closely with our British friends.
Mykhailo Fedorov is starting to show who he is..
smart, yes
ambitious, yes
willing to put the needs of ukraine first .. NO
willing to work as part of a team .. NO
if you take a position like that you have to work with everyone above you and below you. you cant come in and say "i want the entire top of the army gone". its not something that you can do and survive. no matter what a wounder kid you are.
you have to follow orders from the president. and you have to work with the professional soldiers on the ground. he did neither. president Zelensky ordered the generals and fedorov to work together, fedorov refused to put things aside from the looks of things and work with the generals. and from reports it was not 1 general, it was nearly all of them.
should he stay in government, yes but it looks from his last statement he is being petty and said he is not going to take another post. this is NOT helping ukraine.
Sen. @Ossoff: Who won the 2020 election?
DNI nominee Jay Clayton: I'm not going to do this with you
Ossoff: This is a job interview. You have an obligation to be honest with the committee.
Clayton: I'm not gonna get into that with you
Ossoff: You refuse to answer a basic question about who won a presidential election, but you ask to lead America's intelligence community. Isn't it humiliating to be unable to answer this question? To have to indulge the president's delusions?
Kudos to Estonia, the Netherlands, Lithuania, Latvia, Poland, Sweden, Romania, Finland, and Denmark! 🇪🇪🇳🇱🇱🇹🇱🇻🇵🇱🇸🇪🇷🇴🇫🇮🇩🇰
These nine countries are rightly demanding: Not another cent of EU tax money for the IOC as long as it brings Russia and Belarus back into sports.
The IOC has lost all neutrality. No more 💰
Germany—where do you stand?
Merz, showing weakness again?
