Bilan de la guerre "historique" de Trump contre l'Iran : régime intact ✅, programme nucléaire intact ✅, missiles sauvés ✅, détroit de Hormuz désormais sous contrôle iranien ✅, 300 milliards en route pour reconstruire le pays qu'il vient de bombarder ✅, pendaisons et oppression du peuple iranien — strictement inchangées si ce n'est pire ✅.
En échange de tout ça : Trump trouve les mollahs "très rationnels", "pas du tout radicalisés", et "vraiment sympas à négocier". Leurs missiles ? "Tout le monde en a. Ça blesse juste un petit endroit." Hezbollah ? Un simple "coup d'épingle", les Israéliens n'ont qu'à se détendre.
Il y a quatre mois, il promettait au peuple iranien : "L'heure de votre liberté est venue !" Aujourd'hui, ce même peuple se fait toujours pendre, et c'est le régime qui empoche les 300 milliards.
L'art du deal. 🤝

BOCHKOV: THE IDIOT'S DREAM HAS COME TRUE: EUROPE IS PREPARING FOR WAR WITH RUSSIA
For years, Russia's preachers of geopolitical apocalypse tirelessly explained to the West that Ukraine was not really Ukraine. That Kyiv was merely a stop on the long route of the Russian tank. That this war was never about Donbas, Crimea, or even the imperial phantom pains of an aging former KGB lieutenant colonel. No. They insisted the war was against the entire West.
Day and night, Kremlin ideologues hammered this message into European minds. Surkov drew mystical geopolitical schemes. Dugin waved his beard and delivered prophecies. Karaganov periodically suggested frightening the world with nuclear threats "for preventive purposes." Television warmongers growled about Berlin, Warsaw, and Lisbon. It all seemed like yet another Kremlin performance staged for a domestic audience.
Then something unexpected happened.
THE WEST FINALLY BELIEVED RUSSIA. EUROPE WAS FIRST ALARMED, THEN IT CALMLY BEGAN PREPARING FOR WAR.
European policymakers started thinking in simple, pragmatic terms. If a confrontation with Russia is inevitable, when is the better time to face it? Today, while Ukraine's army is battle-hardened and Russia's military is exhausted by war? Or in five years, when Ukraine may be drained, while Russia has repaired its losses, rebuilt its missile stockpiles, mobilized new cannon fodder, and once again starts waving its nuclear club?
The answer proved so obvious that even the European bureaucracy understood it.
That is why Ukraine is receiving not only sympathy and resolutions, but also technology, components, and industrial partnerships that allow garages and warehouses to become factories producing long-range strike capabilities. Europe no longer sees Ukraine's resistance as a charitable project. It now views it as an investment in its own security.
The greatest irony is that the architect of Europe's new strategic consensus is the Kremlin itself.
No one has done more to awaken Europe's military resolve than Russian propaganda. No Ukrainian diplomat, no American general, and no NATO think tank could have convinced Europeans of the Russian threat as effectively as Russia's own television fanatics, state-funded philosophers, and Kremlin strategists.
For years they shouted:
"We are at war with the West!"
At last, the West replied:
"Very well. We heard you."
"We hope you have enough shovels — because, comrades, you're going to need to dig a great many graves."
Glory to Ukraine!
Merz: Ukraine is in a new position of strength. It's beginning to dawn on Moscow: Russia will not win this war.
Europe's support for Kyiv is unwavering. We are determined to increase pressure on Russia's already strained economy.

À Antibes pour le 36e sommet franco-italien, avec la Présidente du Conseil des ministres Giorgia Meloni : l’Italie et la France avancent, entre elles et en Europe, quand elles bâtissent ensemble.
Réponse aux crises internationales, prochain budget de l’Union européenne, défense, espace, énergie, industrie, frontières, transports, agriculture, océans, culture : le Traité du Quirinal incarne la réalité des fondamentaux de notre relation.
Ukraine Has Issued a Strong Official Statement on Nuclear Weapons.
According to Ukrainian officials, Ukraine possesses all the necessary technologies and materials to develop its own nuclear weapons.
"We did not want to take this path, but if Russia does not withdraw its troops from our territory, we will be forced to use this option," the statement said.
This is the strongest and most explicit statement Kyiv has made since the beginning of the full-scale invasion. After years of war, millions of victims, and constant nuclear threats from Russia, Ukraine has made one thing clear: it has the technical capability to develop nuclear weapons.
Sur les réponses aux crises internationales, le plan bilatéral et européen, tout ce qui a été décidé à Antibes à l'occasion du 36e Sommet franco-italien renforce les liens entre l'Italie et la France.
We congratulate @ABDELAESPRIELLA on his victory in the presidential election and wish the people of Colombia success. We know that this is a nation that loves and values freedom. And it is very important that cooperation between our countries only continue to grow.
Ukraine is always open to mutually beneficial partnership and is ready to cooperate in all areas to strengthen security, stability, and economic development. We count on strong cooperation with Colombia so that our nations only grow stronger.
MACRON: On Ukraine, I believe what happened in recent days is very important. For the first time in 18 months, all G7 members signed the same joint text.
And Americans, together with us, reaffirmed their support for Ukraine’s territorial integrity and sovereignty.
They committed to providing military and energy support to Ukraine, to maintaining sanctions against Russia, and to following the same path as we are on.
This is a very important achievement that we want to consolidate. The decisions taken on oil and gas, along with the resumption of sanctions, go in this direction.
They were formalized in recent days, and we intend to continue moving forward along this path.
We will consolidate our position at the NATO summit in Ankara. We will also discuss our support for Ukraine and security guarantees at the Coalition of the Willing meeting on July 13.
If Russia had not started the war, Ukraine would not need to carry out strikes on targets inside Russia.
Ukraine’s attacks on Russian territory are entirely legitimate.
- Petr Pavel
President of the Czech Republic 🇨🇿
It should be clear enough...🤷♀️
Mentir avec un tel aplomb, c’est sidérant.
La liste est pourtant très longue, Madame Le Pen.
Rappelons simplement que la guerre a commencé en 2014 et que vous vous êtes constamment opposée aux sanctions contre la Russie. Vous avez rencontré Poutine à Moscou sans aucun mandat et vous avez justifié l’annexion de la Crimée. Vous avez également dénoncé la décision de Hollande de ne pas vendre des Mistral à la Russie. Cette vente aurait pu permettre à la Russie de s’emparer d’Odessa.
Rappelons aussi que Thierry Mariani, sans doute le plus poutiniste des responsables politiques français, était encore il y a trois mois votre candidat à la mairie de Paris. Le même Mariani qui soutient ouvertement Poutine, s’est rendu à plusieurs reprises en Crimée occupée et justifie la guerre menée par la Russie.
Rappelons enfin que votre parti s’est opposé aux aides militaires à l’Ukraine, y compris très récemment, en votant contre le plan européen de 90 milliards d’euros.
J’aimerais vraiment qu’un jour, dans ce type de séquence, les journalistes ne laissent plus les responsables de LFI ou du RN affirmer, sans contradiction, que leur parti a toujours été du côté de l’Ukraine.
C’est un exemple frappant de post-vérité.
Elle nous ment droit dans les yeux, alors que tout le monde sait que c’est faux.
⚡️Rubio says no Ukraine agreement reached at Alaska summit, contradicting Moscow's claims.
"There was no agreement in Alaska. There was a proposal, but there was no agreement," Rubio told reporters during a visit to Bahrain. "If there had been an agreement, we would have had an end to the war."

Je pose la question aux députés d’extrême droite qui veulent empêcher nos concitoyens de se marier avec des personnes n’ayant pas la nationalité française.
