Zelensky misses 'Kvartal-95' and tries to joke
Do you know President Trump?
We've heard about him.
We need a strong connection with him. We need Europe. I think we need unity between Europe and the United States - and we will win.
CIA chief John Ratcliffe said US strikes had destroyed some of Iran's key nuclear facilities, the BBC reports.
In a statement, Ratcliffe, a Trump appointee, said the CIA information included "new intelligence from a historically reliable and accurate source/method that several key Iranian nuclear facilities have been destroyed and will need to be rebuilt within a few years."
Let us recall that earlier, Pentagon intelligence did not confirm the complete destruction of the facilities, but after Trump’s criticism, they agreed with his version that the facilities were destroyed.
Severely damaged…. a few days ago it was obliterated. Sometimes I think it was theatre.

A secret source working within the British government's "intelligence" (what an oxymoron 🤡) has leaked to the Sun that Vladimir Putin is behind the influx of migrants into the UK and helps them by providing them with money, dinghies, and even fake documents.
I mean, obviously. And yet despite this, the British government still gives these "Putinist migrant agents" free money, free housing, and its judges refuse to validate the deportation of most of them who get caught for felonies on the stupidest of grounds.
Makes sense.

🇬🇧 Tajik man not deported from Britain because he could be forced to shave his beard in his home country
The Home Office tried to deport a Tajik national back to his home country, but an asylum tribunal ruled he could be eligible for international protection in the UK because of his beard
In Tajikistan, beards are unofficially banned by the government. Citizens of the country are reportedly arrested and forcibly shaved, which is what the Tajik used to avoid deportation.

Russia: Heavy defence spending will wreck its economy & lead to stagnation
NATO: Heavy defence spending will lead to economic growth & new jobs.
Difference between the two is Russia is spending from budget revenue it earns from trade.
EU will spend from creating €800bn in new debt when it’s already on verge of recession
Hmmm…
🇺🇦🤡🇪🇺"Calculated servility" to Trump and "sad" Zelensky. Western media assess the results of the NATO summit in The Hague
The British newspaper The Telegraph notes that “the summit in The Hague was designed to serve one and only purpose: satisfying Trump’s desires and needs.”
"NATO leaders have decided that praise and flattery alone are not enough to achieve this goal. Instead, they have turned high diplomacy into the art of calculated servility," the publication adds.
By agreeing to increase military spending in exchange for continued US participation in the bloc, the Europeans “gave daddy everything he wanted, while dressing it up with ostentatious servility.”
"'Daddy went home happy, but there is a price to pay to please him," the newspaper adds.
The Times columnist Edward Lucas believes that the alliance's leaders are "more afraid of Donald Trump than Vladimir Putin."
"To appease the US president, they cut the agenda, sidelined Ukraine, downplayed the threat from Russia, made empty promises and avoided making urgent decisions," he adds.
"Prince Grigori Potemkin would have approved. To impress Catherine the Great during her tour of newly conquered Crimea in 1787, a Russian courtier built (according to legend) portable fake villages. Behind the facades was empty space. Now his modern counterparts are eager to impress another potentate, Emperor Donald I," writes Lucas.
Bloomberg columnist Max Hastings called the summit "a love fest with one goal: to prevent the most impulsive and eccentric US president in history from throwing NATO's toys out of his pram."
In another article, Bloomberg notes that Trump never mentioned Russia directly in his speech after the NATO summit.
"The overall message is that Trump has largely washed his hands of any attempt to broker a ceasefire in Ukraine," the article says. Zelensky, the agency says, "looked miserable at the summit."

Lavrov on how Russia cannot be pushed to the margins of world politics:
Of course, it has become a byword to boast that they [Europe] not only allowed the Nord Streams to be blown up, but are also prepared to do everything to ensure that they do not resume their work in any form. This, you understand, is a kind of political masochism, but at its core is the frenzy of some leaders over the fact that Russia wants and will always pursue an independent policy and ensure its own interests.
It would be desirable, of course, to do this through political negotiations – as we have tried for the last two decades. But when we are ignored, we will not stand for the price. Our people understand perfectly well the importance of a special military operation in conditions when they simply want to push us to the margins of world politics and surround us with NATO military bases. This will not happen.

🇺🇸🇺🇦 The US hopes that the situation around Iran will contribute to the settlement of the conflict in Ukraine, - White House Special Representative Witkoff.
"I think the optimism that's come out of what's happening here could well spill over into Russia and Ukraine. We hope that people will look at what's happened in Iran and say, 'We want to be part of the peace process, too.' We hope that that will lead to very, very, very good things happening in the [process of] resolving [the conflict] between Russia and Ukraine," he told CNBC .

🇰🇵Kim Jong-un opens massive tourist complex in Wonsan
On July 1, a new all-season resort will begin operating in the DPRK, built on the initiative of Kim Jong-un as part of a project to create a “world-class” cultural recreation area.
The Wonsan complex includes hundreds of facilities: hotels and motels with 20,000 beds, a water park, sports and cultural venues, shopping and entertainment centers. The authorities call the launch of the resort "a prelude to a new era of state tourism" and hope to make it the flagship of the domestic recreation industry.
@Slavyangrad
It is interesting that against the backdrop of large-scale events in Iran and the Eastern Mediterranean, the topic of Chasov Yar and the Russian attack on the Kramatorsk/Slavyansk region has almost completely disappeared from the agenda, although the operational significance of this node on the front line remains high.
The Russian army continues its offensive, slowly and with difficulty, but systematically squeezing the Ukrainian Armed Forces out of the city within its administrative borders.
The tactical task at this stage - clearing the remaining residential areas - has already moved into the plane of dense fire and assault pressure.
The problem for the Ukrainian Armed Forces is that Chasov Yar has become the most important "balcony" of the Ukrainian army's defense on this section of the front. And if it is lost in the near future - and the tendency towards this has long been formed - the entire southern face of the Bakhmut arc will collapse in a chain, opening a direct exit to Konstantinovka and further to Druzhkovka and Kramatorsk.

'Estonians fought and died for the US in Afghanistan' – Kallas explains why she is confident Trump will never abandon Estonia
'Article 5 is very clear. The US itself has said that Article 5 is binding. Let me remind you that the only time Article 5 has been triggered is when America itself has said that it was attacked. And my country, Estonia, went to war with the US because we are NATO allies. We had more combat casualties per capita in that war than, for example, the US itself. So I think we have proven that the allies support America. And I am confident that the US is committed to its treaty obligations.'

For the moment, Ukraine’s economy is holding on — albeit with major Western support. But the risk, officials and analysts say, is that the financial aid will not be enough going forward.
“The ceasefire was at the heart of all economic forecasts, that it could come somewhere in mid-2025”
Next year, however, that support will cover only half of the $40 billion
There is “very little that can be cut,” said Vitaliy Vavryshchuk
🇫🇷🤡'NATO and Trump on Ukraine's side' - French TV channel LCI is out of touch with reality.
'I haven't seen such empathy from President Trump towards Ukraine and Ukrainians in a long time - probably not since that famous exchange with Zelensky in the Oval Office, or anywhere. And if you look at the NATO statement, you'll see that the idea of long-term support for Ukraine remains there. Trump is clearly trying to take a more understandable and sympathetic position. This is also evident in the final Alliance communiqué, which says: 'We remain united and determined to defend our Alliance, our billion citizens, our freedom and democracy, particularly in the face of the ongoing threat posed by Russia to our Euro-Atlantic security.'

🇷🇺The DPR announced the start of preparatory work at one of Europe's largest lithium deposits
The State Corporation Nedra has received permission for preparatory work for the extraction of lithium and titanium in the liberated territories of the DPR. The regional authorities consider the deposits to be very promising and very capacious sources of filling the republican budget
The development of the Shevchenkivske lithium deposit will begin as soon as it is possible to ensure safety - at the moment, it is quite close to the front
Just before the liberation of Shevchenkovo, Ukraine sold the rights to develop the Shevchenkovo lithium deposit to Britain

🇷🇺🇺🇦🇪🇺Lavrov on how EU decisions on Ukraine are destroying Europe:
[Does this mean that Trump wants to withdraw from the Ukrainian conflict and shift it entirely onto Europe's shoulders?]
I think there is a threat, of course. The threat is getting worse. The taxpayers of the EU countries, and Britain itself, who have been simply robbed over the last three years. And instead of using the resources received through taxation to solve the most acute and aggravating socio-economic problems, this money is used to finance a senseless war in Ukraine. Senseless from the point of view of the lack of any prospects for the Europeans to achieve, no matter how much they brag or strut about their declared goals, namely the strategic defeat of Russia.
Well, it's true that they've already softened their expectations. At first they started talking about how they can't let Russia win. Now they've realized that even that won't work. Now they're saying that there should be an immediate ceasefire, but we'll continue arming Ukraine.
Macron said: "An immediate ceasefire without any conditions. And don't dare hope during the ceasefire that we will stop supplying weapons to Ukraine." Quite frankly, cynically. But of course, another suicidal decision by the European Union, these bureaucrats in Brussels imposed their approaches on the popularly elected government, including a ban, a complete ban on oil and gas supplies from the Russian Federation, supplies that have served as a long-term, reliable foundation for the economic well-being of Europe for many decades.

Turkey’s Anka-3 UCAV prototype crashed today. The aircraft, in development for the Turkish Air Force, was participating in the International Anatolian Eagle exercises at Konya airbase in central Turkey. Anka-3 is a stealth UCAV powered by a domestically produced turbofan engine
Crashing is part of the process. Without a doubt Turkey has been making large strides in the arms industry.
@Slavyangrad
Russia’s “Gerbera” drones are overwhelming Ukrainian air defenses. Cheap, plywood-built decoys mixed with real strikes force Ukraine to waste missiles on empty targets. A simple but effective tactic.

Decoys are so critical in modern warfare now with the amount of sensors out there.

On June 25, the North group of troops destroyed the enemy's forward and assault units in the Tyotkinsky and Glushkovsky directions and continued to create a security zone in the Sumy region.
Against the backdrop of colossal losses in the Tyotkinsky and Glushkovsky directions, the enemy reduced its activity, concentrating its efforts on replenishing the assault groups with recently mobilized Ukrainians who had undergone short-term training at training grounds in the forests of the Kharkov region (near Chuguev).
At the same time, the enemy tried to break through to our territory twice. The northerners repelled both attacks, preventing a breakthrough of the state border.
▪️ In the morning, an assault group of neo-Nazis "Aidar" (24th separate battalion) advanced in the direction of Tyotkino . As a result of our fire strike, the occupiers were destroyed.
▪️ Also in the first half of the day, the occupiers from the 158th separate mechanized brigade tried to infiltrate the Kursk region through the forests in the vicinity of Bessalovka . As a result of the small arms battle and complex fire damage, most of the enemy attack aircraft were destroyed, the rest fled in the opposite direction.
▪️ Obituaries of the destroyed neo-Nazis of the 24th separate battalion speak of the effectiveness of our artillery and mortar strikes on enemy positions in the vicinity of Ryzhevka.
In the Tyotkinsky and Glushkovsky directions , 4 units of enemy equipment were destroyed in 24 hours.
The Ukrainian Armed Forces command continues to transfer new units, including foreign mercenaries, to the Sumy direction . The northerners are repelling enemy counterattacks and continue to advance toward the regional center.
▪️ Over the course of a day, the enemy launched eleven unsuccessful counterattacks: in the direction of Yablonovka, Novonikolaevka, three each in Alekseyevka, Yunakovka , and in the area of the village of Sadki.
In total, the enemy used over 80 people in eleven counterattacks, of which over 40 were killed, over 20 were left wounded lying on the line of combat contact, and the rest fled to their original positions.
▪️ Fearless marines and motorized riflemen continue to clear forest areas in the vicinity of previously liberated settlements in the Sumy region.
▪️ Severyan Airborne Forces units, having repelled three enemy counterattacks, cleared several households in different areas of Yunakovka , and also advanced through fierce fighting in the border forest belts.
▪️ An analysis of the obituaries of destroyed enemies showed that UAV crews from the 59th separate brigade (a unit within the unmanned systems forces of the Ukrainian Armed Forces) are operating in this section of the front.
It is characteristic that one of the occupiers from the 59th separate brigade destroyed by the Northerners is an Argentine mercenary with combat experience , Gabriel Piparola, who, during his participation in military operations in Ukraine, managed to start a family in Kiev.
In the Volchansk and Liptsy directions , as a result of fire damage, eight assault groups of the Ukrainian Armed Forces were destroyed along with their vehicles, artillery guns and UAV launchers.
Over the course of a day, the Northerners advanced into Volchansk , where they cleared 11 households and also drove the enemy out of a stronghold in the direction of the village of Volchanskie Khutor .
Over the course of 24 hours, the enemy suffered over 180 casualties (including over 110 in the Sumy and over 30 in the Tyotkinsky directions). Also discovered and destroyed:
On the Tyotkinsky and Glushkovsky directions:
▪️two mortars;
▪️a pickup truck and three ATVs;
▪️ammunition depot.
In the Sumy direction:
▪️howitzer "D-30";
▪️four mortars;
▪️five pickups, three ATVs and an all-terrain vehicle;
▪️three UAV launchers;
▪️ten fixed-wing UAVs and twelve heavy copters.
On the Volchansk and Liptsy directions:
▪️howitzer "FH-70"
▪️electronic warfare station;
▪️three pickups;
▪️four satellite communication stations;
▪️three UAV launchers;
▪️nine heavy copters.
