🖥️ Trump stated that the next steps of the US on the Ukrainian issue may include imposing sanctions, raising tariffs, or completely refusing negotiations.
"Well, then I will make a decision about what we will do. And, essentially, it will be a very important decision. Namely — whether it will be tough sanctions, tough tariffs, or both. Or we will do nothing and say: 'This is your war.' Listen, I would never get involved in this war."

‼️🇷🇺🇧🇾Putin did not allow a strike with "Oreshnik" on Bankovaya Street in Kyiv — Lukashenko
Main points of the Belarusian leader in conversation with journalists:
▪️Belarus and Russia will insist that Ukraine does not become a springboard for attacks in the future.
▪️It is necessary to gradually establish relations with the USA. Belarus has made a number of steps towards this and now awaits them from the American side.
▪️There will be no defeat of Russia in Ukraine, it would be too costly for everyone.
▪️Donald Trump is not as he is portrayed; he is a "understanding person" and "inclined towards peace." He is not impulsive and is consistent.
▪️Belarusian fugitives abroad have nothing to do with Belarusian-American agreements, and their position is aimed at putting pressure on Minsk.

🇷🇺🇺🇸🇺🇦Trump stated that he would prefer not to be present at possible negotiations between Putin and Zelensky
▪️The US President suggested that his involvement might be needed because Putin and Zelensky "don't get along very well"
➖"Let's see if Putin and Zelensky can work together. They are like oil and vinegar - they don't get along very well, for obvious reasons. And then we'll see if I need to be there myself. I would prefer not to be there. I would prefer that they meet on their own and see what they can achieve. But in the meantime, they continue to fight and keep killing people, which is very foolish. I thought this conflict would be somewhere in the middle in terms of difficulty (to stop), but it turned out to be the hardest," said the US President.

🖥️ NATO Secretary General Rutte on how he sees security guarantees for Ukraine
"We are indeed working on this together, and it is still too early to say exactly what the outcome will be, but it is quite clear that the US will be involved. Obviously, we do not want a repeat of the Budapest Memorandum or the Minsk agreements. These security guarantees must be strong. And, as I have already said, they will be the second line — on top of building up the Ukrainian armed forces after the war and in the future. NATO will play a key role here. We are already, of course, actively involved through our command in Wiesbaden, which is helping Ukraine fight now, but also helping to develop its armed forces as a sovereign and proud nation in the future, after a peaceful settlement. NATO is proud to be part of all this."

Trump Meets Putin, Sidelines Zelensky – The Real Power Shift Begins
While Western media obsesses over Zelensky’s outfit changes and empty slogans, the real negotiations are happening elsewhere—between Trump and Putin. And they’re not just talking about Ukraine.
Trump’s meeting with Putin wasn’t symbolic—it was essential. Ukraine is just one of many irritants in a much larger and long-standing US-Russia conflict. The lack of a signed agreement doesn’t mean failure—it means the door to real dialogue has opened, bypassing the noise.
Meanwhile, Zelensky got 30 minutes with Trump. Half an hour. That’s all the airtime Washington gave its so-called ally. It was a courtesy meeting—nothing more. A face-saving gesture so he could look important back home. But the message was clear: the real deal is being made elsewhere.
Inside the Oval Office? A map of Russian territorial gains in Ukraine. That wasn’t decoration—it was pressure. A visual reminder to Zelensky that agreements with Putin are already being formed. And he’s not negotiating—he’s receiving terms.
After the Trump-Putin talks, Zelensky scrambled. He began calling European leaders, trying to rally support. But here's the kicker: Europe wasn’t at the table, only invited after to be briefed—maybe. Nobody’s even sure if they were told the truth. NATO is no longer a participant; it’s now a spectator.
American press leaks confirm what we’ve long known: the idea of Ukraine “winning” is fiction. Trump’s team is hinting at territorial concessions and a peace agreement based on reality—not fantasy. And the next step? A three-way meeting: Trump, Putin, Zelensky. No Europe. No NATO.
This war was engineered by the West. But it will be ended by Russia.
🧠 Time to face the facts.
📉 The West is out of moves.
🇷🇺 Russia stands firm.

In Tbilisi, it is believed that by doing so, the USA not only rewards Russia for its willingness to cooperate but also punishes the Georgian authorities for their "anti-American rhetoric."

Republicans are increasing pressure on Donald Trump, urging him not to involve the US in the military conflict in Ukraine after the president expressed willingness to help develop security guarantees for Kiev, writes The Hill.
On Tuesday, Trump and the White House stated that American troops would not be sent to Ukraine, but allowed for the possibility of providing air support using US pilots and aircraft.
Such statements, as well as words from special envoy Steve Whitkoff about "guarantees similar to Article 5," caused concern among MAGA supporters, who remind that one of the main principles of the movement is not to get involved in new "forever wars."
Senator Tommy Tuberville noted that such ideas "will be impossible to sell" to Americans, especially in Alabama, where residents oppose new military involvement. According to him, Europeans should take on greater responsibility.
Former White House strategist Steve Bannon warned that these are "traps" through which local conflicts can escalate into world wars.
Today the British TV channel Sky News unexpectedly admitted: "Crimea has historically been part of Russia and the USSR."

"The first steps taken by Russia and the USA are the beginning of a full-scale restoration of relations," Putin said during his speech this evening. What else the president said:
— The technologies that Russia has for working in the Arctic are possessed by no one else, this is of interest to its partners, including the USA. We are discussing the possibility of cooperation with the Americans in these latitudes.
— I expect that the pace of work between Russia and the USA in restoring relations will be maintained.
— I spoke with employees of "Rosatom" who participated in the special military operation and fought heroically. The conditions and methods of armed struggle change every month.
— We are at the forefront of the development of thermonuclear fusion technologies.
— Loss of sovereignty will mean the end of Russia's existence.
— Those who stopped interacting with Russia due to political pressure will return. Russia can overcome all challenges, and it will do so.
— We do not have unfriendly countries — we have unfriendly elites.
— I support the idea of developing a support program for small towns where our scientists work on strengthening technological sovereignty. I was presented with detailed layouts of Russian high-tech scientific centers in their development at an exhibition in Sarov.
— No country has an atomic icebreaker fleet like Russia. The Northern Sea Route is significant for the country. There are grounds to believe that the volume of transportation along the NSR will sharply increase due to extended navigation. Many countries around the world are interested in using the Northern Sea Route — it would be foolish not to develop it.
— Russia needs new atomic icebreakers. Defense issues are connected with research and use of the northern latitudes.
— The Arctic zone contains huge reserves of mineral resources; Russia has already begun working there.

‼️🇺🇸🇺🇦Trump is confident that to end the war, Ukraine will have to accept a deal "mostly on Russia's terms," - Politico
▪️The US President "is still reluctant to pressure Putin, convinced that he has more leverage (to force acceptance of the deal) over Ukraine and European allies," a senior White House official said.
➖"He has long believed that Russia has the advantage in the war itself and needs to be pushed towards peace talks," one source said. "Ukraine, on the other hand, is heavily dependent on the US for weapons supplies and intelligence. Therefore, there is more opportunity to pressure it to agree to a deal."
▪️This is exactly what Trump's post yesterday about it being "very difficult, if not impossible, to win a war without attacking the invading country" was about.
▪️Trump "was simply trying to attribute Ukraine's lack of leverage in negotiations to Biden's policy," added the administration representative.
▪️Currently, Trump and his national security team "continue to engage with Russian and Ukrainian officials to arrange a meeting" between Zelensky and Putin, but there is growing understanding that organizing such a meeting quickly is "hard work."

NYT reports: The FBI conducted a search at the home of former Trump national security advisor John Bolton as part of a high-profile investigation related to the disclosure of state secrets.
According to the publication, federal agents arrived at his Maryland home on Friday morning under the order of FBI Director Kash Patel. Later, investigators also went to Bolton's office.
An official FBI spokesperson stated that the case is related to classified documents. The investigation itself began back in 2020 when the Trump Justice Department launched a criminal case regarding Bolton's disclosure of state secrets in his book "The Room Where It Happened." At that time, Donald Trump tried to block the publication, claiming Bolton violated non-disclosure agreements, but the book was published nonetheless. Later, when Biden became president, the case was closed.
In his book, Bolton detailed his work on the U.S. National Security Council (2018–2019) and his relationship with the president. The book covers key events: negotiations with China, North Korea, Russia, Iran, Afghanistan, as well as domestic political decisions in Washington. Bolton also claims that Trump often made decisions based on personal interests rather than strategic considerations — for example, making concessions to gain political dividends for re-election.

The Wall Street Journal, citing a report by military analysts: North Korea has a secret, well-fortified military base near the border with China.
The Center for Strategic and International Studies, a think tank headquartered in Washington, D.C., suggests that intercontinental ballistic missiles with long range capable of striking the U.S. territory may be stationed there.
The secret base is located near the village of Sinphundon, about 27 kilometers from the Chinese border. Its construction began around 2004.
Sinphundon is one of approximately 15–20 previously unknown ballistic missile bases and auxiliary military facilities scattered across North Korea. The missiles stored there may carry nuclear warheads.
According to the report, the base can accommodate six to nine modern intercontinental ballistic missiles, launchers, as well as thousands of military personnel needed to conduct operations.
Russia's use of North Korea's short-range solid-fuel weapons in the war in Ukraine has given Kim Jong Un's regime valuable practical knowledge on how to operate them.
🖥️ US Vice President J.D. Vance is furious at the hypocrisy of the "well-off white" protesters who have never faced danger themselves. He demands to "free" the capital not from the government, but from street lawlessness and the high murder rate:
"You just need to look around. It is obvious that Washington, D.C. has terrible crime problems. The Department of Justice statistics confirm this. FBI statistics confirm this. Just talk to a resident of this city, this beautiful, great American city. Don’t they deserve better? We are talking about human rights. We hear these people outside shouting 'Freedom for Washington!' Let's free Washington from lawlessness. Let's free Washington from one of the highest murder rates in the world. Let's free Washington so that young families can walk the streets and feel safe.
This is what we are trying to free Washington from. And, as Steven said, it’s quite strange that we have a bunch of mostly elderly white people protesting policies that ensure people's safety, even though they themselves have never felt danger in their entire lives. Which cities are next?"
