The Russian propagandist Solovyev said that “now that the U.S. and Russia are friends,” they should form a “military alliance and divide Europe.” https://video.nostr.build/682f03188a960da0b6313d6a42b12c804d5b4a8b54f67e09fece29800fff2e81.mp4

General Keith Kellogg, Trump's special envoy for the war in Ukraine, arrived in Kyiv today.
"We are listening. We understand the need for security guarantees. We are very clear on the importance of this nation's sovereignty and its defense as well."
Among all members of the Trump administration, General Kellogg appears to be the most reasonable regarding the war in Ukraine. The question remains: how much influence do his opinions carry within the White House?

It is now quite evident that Trump will offer Putin at the negotiating table what Putin failed to achieve on the battlefield. In a statement, Trump echoed Russian propaganda, accusing Ukraine of starting the war. In recent days, Europe, backed by allies such as Turkey, has stated that it will not accept territorial concessions without security guarantees for Ukraine and, most importantly, without also consulting Ukraine.
But that is not going to happen, and everything suggests that Trump is determined to please Putin—whatever his secret reason may be. In this scenario, what will the Europeans and their allies do? Will they take on the mission of defending Ukraine themselves, or will they hand it over to Putin on a silver platter and wait for the next Russian invasion?

After Trump accused Ukraine of starting the war, Zelensky stated that Trump is trapped in a “Russian disinformation space.” Russia has invaded Ukraine on two occasions: first in 2014, in Crimea, and then on a larger scale in February 2022.

"We must first and foremost look at what the people who are fighting think. Make concessions to Russia? Only 1% of the population supports that. It may seem like this can be resolved through some agreements. No, it is impossible." – Zelenskyy at a press conference. https://video.nostr.build/2fee76771f8e7150837dce61b4bd8a795f361f43857e266305927dbb7ec72213.mp4

Putin: Our troops are advancing along the entire front line. Yes, but there’s one detail - after that, they return in black bags. Putin’s statement about an offensive was refuted by the head of the Center for Countering Disinformation:
"There was an attempt by a Russian sabotage and reconnaissance group to enter Ukrainian territory. The SRG was eliminated. There is currently no Russian military grouping capable of conducting a large-scale offensive on Ukrainian territory." https://video.nostr.build/5eb20acb75d0615dbb1592333be4eedddc5ebdbf9eeaede04422f159e5565824.mp4

According to the Washington Post, U.S. funding for the Palestinian Authority (PA), the government in control of large swathes of the West Bank, has now been halted in accordance with the freeze on foreign aid ordered by U.S. President Donald J. Trump. However, an unnamed former Israeli official told the Washington Post that funding for the PA security forces, who have actively been aiding the Israel Defense Force (IDF) in their operations inside the West Bank, has “not been affected in a meaningful way.” Additionally, other donors have reportedly stepped in to fill the gaps in funding. Who these donors were was not specified and at least some training initiatives and pay appears to be have been affected by the freeze.
Additional Context: It’s important to note that the PA has been tapped to play a pivotal role in the ceasefire plan for the Gaza Strip. Plans are currently in motion to task them with maintaining stability and coordinating security efforts in the Gaza Strip as part of a potential post-ceasefire governance plan.

Last night, Ukrainian UAVs attacked an oil refinery in Syzran, located 1,000 km from the Ukrainian border. Russia’s porous air defense failed to prevent the strike on the facility, which processes 8.9 million tons of oil annually. Local authorities insist the refinery sustained no damage, but videos show a fire breaking out and continuing into the morning. https://video.nostr.build/6a8ab18ffb8fc41abd769a2ade96afdd03a59e660e8f235e64805e1f43b5b4b4.mp4
