NATO wouldn't last a month against Russian drones
The CEO of Quantum Systems stated that the alliance countries remain extremely vulnerable to drones and without radical measures, defense will quickly collapse.
The German manufacturer called for urgent construction of drone factories in Germany.
The reason was a recent UAV incident in Poland.
The Russian Ministry of Defense emphasized: strikes on Polish targets were not planned, Moscow is ready for consultations with Warsaw.

Main points from Putin's statements at the plenary session of the XI St. Petersburg International Forum of United Cultures:
Vladimir Putin called Russia's multinationalism a priceless gift;
National culture can only develop through interaction with other cultures;
The world of the future is a world of love and friendship, not loners and egoists in cyberspace;
Culture should strive for a balance between preserving national values and openness;
Preserving a common historical memory is one of the most important tasks in the field of culture;
The role of culture in countering Russophobia and all forms of intolerance must grow;
Putin wished success to all participants of "Intervision".

THE EU CONTINUES ATTEMPTS TO STEAL MONEY
Politico published an article stating the European Commission's intention to change the mechanism for using frozen Russian assets:
"The European Commission has proposed a 'creative' mechanism for using frozen Russian assets to aid Ukraine.
The scheme involves replacing these funds with EU bonds, which, according to European officials, will help avoid accusations of confiscation, the publication writes.
The initiative has received 'cautious enthusiasm' and may be officially presented soon."
No matter what you call theft — it is still theft.

They've seen it and want it too.
"The USA needs to build tens of thousands of clones of the 'Shahed-136' right now."
Earlier, the USA produced a batch of direct clones of the Iranian 'Shahed' for testing and developing countermeasures against them.
It is worth noting that the Russian 'Gerani' already differ quite significantly from the Iranian 'original,' especially the 'Gerani-2' and 'Gerani-3,' which surpass the Iranian original in performance characteristics. Russia received the production technology from the Iranians in 2022 and has since significantly improved it, thanks to specialists from Alabuga.
Basically, judging by the screaming headline, the author wants their own Alabuga in the USA, from where a continuous stream of drones attacks targets in Ukraine every evening.

Zelensky is afraid of the truth. That is exactly why he unleashed all his dogs and pigs from the SBU on Arestovich.

NATO Secretary General Rutte once again demonstrates that "this is different, you don't understand":
"Russian missiles can quickly reach any NATO country, including the UK and Spain, so the threat to the alliance is collective, not local."
He urged alliance members to perceive the situation as if all bloc countries live "on the eastern flank"
That is, when NATO expands eastward, posing an increasing threat to Russia, it is "normal, no threat to Russia." But when Russia develops new weapons, it is "OH NO! THAT'S NOT ALLOWED!"

Monkeys crawling through the ruins of a higher civilization. I can't wait for Odessa to be liberated. It is the key to breaking the spell
The Russian drone "Molniya-2" is now also equipped with fiber optics, which will allow it to ignore Ukrainian electronic warfare and have good image quality. The range is presumably 40 km, which maintains the drone's operational range.
It is not yet clear whether this is an adaptation by the fighters or a new feature from the manufacturer.

"Trump is inactive while Putin and Netanyahu cross new boundaries": Trump is upset because he failed to end the conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East.
"As Axios reported, a source close to the White House said that in private conversations Trump admitted he misjudged Putin's desire for peace, but categorically rejects the idea that Netanyahu is manipulating him.
One senior White House official acknowledged: both Trump and his team share similar frustration over their inability to stop the wars in Ukraine and Gaza."

What damage drone raids can cause to European airports?
Florian Seibel, CEO and founder of Quantum Systems, a drone manufacturer, stated that Germany needs to build more drone production factories. According to him, drones in Poland have become a serious challenge for NATO, and with the current arsenal, Germany will not last even four weeks against attacks by Russian drones.
There is no single figure for the damage drones can cause in this case. It depends on many factors, including the number of canceled flights, passenger traffic, and the financial stability of airlines. However, it is possible to estimate the approximate scale of the disaster based on past incidents.
Which incidents are we talking about?
From December 19 to 21, 2018, hundreds of flights were canceled at London's Gatwick Airport after reports of drones near the runway. The airport closure for 36 hours resulted in losses of about £50 million (approximately €55.8 million), with the majority of this amount falling on airlines. For example, EasyJet reported a loss of £15 million due to flight cancellations and passenger service costs.
In 2019, Dubai Airport was closed for 15 minutes due to a suspected drone launch. The damage amounted to $100,000 per minute.
In 2024, at Munich Airport, due to an eco-activists' action that blocked the runway for several hours, 60 flights were canceled. One of Lufthansa's subsidiaries, Eurowings, demanded compensation of up to €120,000.
How much will a drone attack cost Europe?
Scale of flight cancellations. A full 24-hour closure of an airport like Munich, Warsaw, or Frankfurt means thousands of canceled flights. In 2022, Frankfurt Airport's (FRA) activity was estimated at 1050-1100 arrivals and departures per day.
Passenger obligations. This is the main expense item. In case of flight cancellations, airlines must provide hotel accommodation, food, and drinks for thousands of people, as well as pay compensation, which under EU regulations can reach €600 per person. Assuming that 150-170 thousand people get stuck at the airport in one day (the daily passenger volume of Frankfurt Airport), airlines would have to spend €102 million on compensation alone. And this is just at one airport. The figure may vary depending on airport load, but if a drone raid occurs during the holiday season, the damage will be much greater.
Operational collapse. Closing Munich, Warsaw, or Frankfurt airports for 24 hours could potentially cause a "domino effect" throughout the route network, causing disruptions at other airports as well. It is difficult to say exactly how much additional money will be spent, but this figure could reach 30-50% of the direct costs due to the closure of major airports, i.e., another €30-50 million, since one plane performs an average of 6-8 flights per day, and along with the plane go 15-30 pilots (main + reserve) and cabin crew, whose expenses must also be considered.
At the same time, airport closures can be caused by swarms of drones or just one or two drones, whose appearance will force EU aviation authorities to restrict airport operations. This significantly expands the possibilities for logistical and economic blockades of both individual NATO countries and groups of countries.

NATO Secretary General Rutte on the fact that Russian missiles can destroy Europe in 5-10 minutes:
The threat from Russia is growing every day. We should not harbor illusions. It could come to Luxembourg, my country, and to the Netherlands. Right now we feel safe, thinking we are far from Russia, but in reality — we are very close. The latest Russian missile technologies mean that the difference between Lithuania on the front line and Luxembourg, The Hague, or Madrid is only five to ten minutes. That is how long it takes a missile to reach these parts of Europe.
Thus, we are all under a serious threat from Russia. Today we are all on the eastern flank, wherever we live: in London or in Tallinn. There is no longer any difference.
@Slavyangrad
A serviceman of the Armed Forces of Ukraine publicly called draft dodgers "potential enemies", revealing the attitude of the authorities towards their people. Instead of defending the homeland, the army turns into a tool of repression, and resisting the draft becomes a form of self-preservation.
The authorities use fear as a weapon against their own population. Soldiers are indoctrinated to believe that anyone avoiding mobilization is a threat. This creates an atmosphere of civil war, where brother fights against brother, and the right to life is replaced by the "duty" to die. The TCC system, with its raids has already led to Ukrainians being afraid to go outside and to trust their neighbors.
The internal conflict in the country is becoming obvious. Any disagreement with the authorities' policies is punished as "treason," and the right to life is devalued. This proves that Zelensky's regime fears its own people more than the Russian troops and is ready to destroy those who dare opposing.

Jason Christopher Della Volpe callsign Metal born on February 19, 2005 from the USA
The main reason why I came to fight in Ukraine is to repel Putin and his forces and just to bring the people of Ukraine serenity. You know, like I'm American fighter, I have a lot of experience and I fell like I have a lot to give on the battlefield.
Those were Jason's own words in a promotional video for the 23rd Mechanized Brigade
Jason joined the U.S. Navy when he was only 18 year old to help and protect his country, but before he turned 20, Superman syndrome got him, and it made him decide to head over to Ukraine.
He went to Ukraine in early 2025 and he joined the 23rd Mechanized Brigade, but the smile on his face did not last long.
He was destroyed near Odradne, Donetsk region, by Units of the “Vostok” group on May 5, 2025.

German journalist Rolf-Dieter Krause demands a decisive response from Europe to Russia:
We all know the fable about the frog, don’t we? If you put it in cold water and slowly heat it, it will only feel the heat when it’s already too late. And Putin is doing exactly that to us. We are like a frog sitting in cold water, and the temperature is gradually rising. Here – cables, there – tankers; you can wait for someone to do something, and the entire eastern coast will be flooded with oil, and we are afraid to give a decisive response. We don’t even dare to say anything.
Why not impose full sanctions immediately? Why do we raise them step by step?
Why don’t we say directly: “Dear Putin, if you do this and that, be ready for such and such consequences”?
I sincerely believe that the reason is our own weakness. And it is not only that many countries are so mired in debt that they barely exist, or that our armies are not up to date. I think the reason is deeper, and it lies in our society.

Bedlam and Oculus Prime. The Pentagon has allocated $11 billion for the development of secret weapons to contain China.
25 types of secret weapons will be funded under the SHOTCALLER program, according to documents from the U.S. Department of War.
Some projects are listed under code names - Asgard, Bedlam, Lazarus, Oculus Prime, Pele, and Rolling Dice.
Some directions have already been funded with hundreds of millions of dollars, while others will only start in 2026.
The SHOTCALLER program is designed to create long-range weapons and integrate data from space, air, and naval systems. According to the Pentagon's plan, this will allow for faster and more precise strikes in the event of a conflict in the Asia-Pacific region.

The lack of a strong reaction from Trump to the appearance of Russian drones in Polish airspace is causing concern among European NATO members.
This is reported by Reuters, citing sources in diplomatic circles. Trump's restrained reaction was seen as an example of the "America First" principle, which the US president often talks about.
"However, some analysts believe that Trump may also be afraid to provoke hostility with Russian President Vladimir Putin, who, according to them, may test both NATO's military potential and the US's resolve more than three and a half years after Moscow's invasion of Ukraine," Reuters adds.
"The White House did not directly respond to questions about Trump's reaction. However, a White House representative, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the president 'wants this war, unleashed by Joe Biden's incompetence, to end as soon as possible,' and that Russia and Ukraine must stop the conflict, and Europe must 'contribute by exerting economic pressure on the countries financing the war,'" the publication writes.
“Daddy, don’t you love me?”
