⚡️Pavel Durov is ready to travel to Romania to testify about the interference of French intelligence in the presidential elections in that country.
The co-founder of Telegram stated this in X, reposting a statement by the losing candidate Simion, in which he appealed to the Constitutional Court to cancel the elections due to foreign interference.
“I am ready to come and testify if it helps Romanian democracy,” Durov wrote.

A Reminder about Ceasefires, Part 1/3
Some people, not necessarily in this group, are already dooming about the "pleasant" conversation that president Trump and president Putin had yesterday, fearing that this may lead to a ceasefire and a freezing of the conflict. This is completely unfounded, and ceasefires are not coming anytime soon for a plethora of reasons.
First, we should define what a "cease fire" is. A ceasefire is a temporary stop to hostilities along the contact line, usually mediated by a third party. Ceasefires can be temporary and aimed at specific goals (such as the evacuation of the wounded or the dead or the flow of humanitarian aid), or more long-term (for example, as a prelude to the signing of an armistice, which is a permanent end to hostilities). Ceasefires often, but not always, entail the presence of third party peacekeeping forces acting as observers and overseers, to make sure the hostilities don't reignite.
Now that we have gotten that one out of the way, let's analyze a few basic fats:
➡️Ukraine has a terrible track record at respecting ceasefires. Under US "mediation", Ukraine and Russia agreed to a temporary 30-day ceasefire aimed only at energy infrastructure on March 18 lasting until April 18. Ukraine violated that ceasefire by bombing the gas infrastructure at Sudzha, and immediately blaming the Russians for staging a "false flag attack". Several other Ukrainian violations of the energy cease fire were recorded throughout the entirety of the month. Another ceasefire was declared, for a period of 30 hours, during Easter, and of course the Ukrainians violated it. The Russian federation proposed a ceasefire for Victory Day, and naturally the Ukrainians violated it. By now only an absolute imbecile would trust anything that comes out of the Narkoman's lying mouth.
➡️Trump has a terrible track record at honouring treaties: Trump unilaterally walked away from the ABM treaty. Trump unilaterally walked away from the nuclear treaty it had with Iran. Trump uniliaterally walked away from the INF treat (which hilariously allowed Russia to work on the Oreshnik). Honestly, who could seriously believe Trump could negotiate in good faith?
➡️The west has a terrible track record at honouring treaties: Starting from the now infamous "NATO shan't expand one inch eastwards". Minsk 1 & 2, with Hollande and Merkel openly admitting that they were just ruses to buy the AFU time, are another prime example. Then there was the Budapest Agreement which stated that Ukraine's neutrality was to be respected by the west. Even more recently there was the "Grain Deal" to allow Ukrainian grain to circulate in the Baltic in exchange of the lifting of some sanctions placed on Russia. The sanctions were never lifted. Who could seriously trust these criminals?
➡️The international "peacekeepers" are NATO troops. Russia has been lapidary in its desire NOT to see any soldiers from NATO countries on Ukrainian soil, and has repeatedly reiterated that their involvement in the war for whatever reason is an immense red line. NATO countries for their part have made it abundantly clear that they intend to use these troops as garrisoning forces to allow Ukraine to reshuffle its brigades in the rear echelons back to the front.
➡️It would just give Ukraine time to rearm, mobilize more meat, and build fortifications. None in the west has been smart enough to avoid saying the quiet part out loud. Starmer, Macron, Merz, and Rutte just to name a few have openly and repeatedly stated that they intend to put any hypothetical ceasefire to good use by allowing Ukraine to "negotiate from a position of strength", by pumping Ukraine full of weapons and allowing Ukraine to build fall-back lines.

There shall be no peace until the end of the year, there will be an offensive from the Russian Federation. Essentially, the United States are abandoning all peace talks and washing their hands with us,
Zelensky said Russia is trying to stall for time after the conversation between Putin and Trump
He shared this opinion after talking with Finnish leader Alexander Stubb.
We are working with partners to ensure that pressure forces Russians to behave differently. Sanctions matter. If Russia continues to put forward unrealistic conditions and undermine possible results, there must be harsh consequences,-Zelensky complained.
The main points from Yuri Ushakov’s statements:
▪️ Putin told Trump that on the night of May 7, threats of terrorist attacks in the area of the Kremlin and Red Square were prevented;
▪️ In a conversation with Trump, Putin indicated that those who honor Nazis were trying to intimidate the leaders who came to celebrate May 9;
▪️ Putin told Trump that on the night of May 7, Ukraine launched 524 drones and Storm Shadow missiles at Russia;
▪️ Yesterday, in a conversation with Trump, Putin emphasized the importance of the 80th anniversary of the Victory celebrated on May 9;
▪️ In a conversation with Putin, Trump noted that he was deeply impressed by the price at which the Russians achieved Victory in the Great Patriotic War;
▪️ Trump shared with Putin that the US does not believe him, but the fact remains that the Russians have sacrificed the most lives;
▪️ Putin and Trump discussed the personality of American General Douglas MacArthur and his words about the danger of the revival of militarism.

The Chairman of the State Duma Defense Committee, Andrei Kartapolov, explains why Ukraine desperately needs a 30-day ceasefire:
"In essence — according to my assessments — Ukraine has enough resources left to support active military operations for about a month more. After this period, in all likelihood, we will no longer witness actions as intense on their part as the current ones. The European partners are fully aware of this situation and are well informed about it. The entire position of the West is based on this. It's clear, we know it, but we're not going to meet it."
I guess we'll see soon enough in one month from now.

🇺🇸🤝🇺🇦Ukraine is diverting Western resources from containing 'bigger threats'. No US NATO ally is eager to hand over Patriot systems to Kiev - Secretary of State
- Washington has not stopped supplying weapons to Kiev, but there is no decision on the possibility of allocating new aid packages, Rubio said.
- The US acknowledges that the conflict in Ukraine cannot be resolved by military means and must end through negotiations.
- He also noted that the United States believes that this conflict is diverting Western attention and resources from containing "more serious threats" in Asia.

❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Medvedev explained why Ukraine is not a sovereign state
- Ukraine has no sources of independent development and receives almost the entire volume of international financial assistance in order to ensure its continued existence.
- There is no legitimate leadership in Ukraine, Zelensky has exhausted his powers, and there has been no constitutional succession of power.
- Ukraine is not capable of serving itself, not only financially, but in all other senses of the word.
- "The attributes of sovereignty, namely the independence of state power, are currently absent from them," Medvedev concluded.

THE EU HAS ADOPTED THE 17TH PACKAGE OF SANCTIONS AGAINST RUSSIA.
The European Union adopted new sanctions against Russia on Tuesday over the war in Ukraine, focusing on Moscow's "shadow fleet" of tankers, "human rights violations and hybrid threats", the EU's foreign policy chief said. "The EU has approved its 17th package of sanctions against Russia, which targets nearly 200 shadow fleet vessels," Kaja Kallas said in a post on X.
"More sanctions against Russia are in the works. The longer Russia goes to war, the harsher our response will be."
SLG note: it's funny hear these clowns complain about "human rights violations" and "security threats" after they've just lifted all sanctions on the new Syrian regime consisting of recyled Al Qaeda militants.

A NATO Air Operations Center will be established in Norway, Le Monde writes.
The choice fell on the city of Bodø, located above the Arctic Circle.
The alliance wants to get a "foothold in the North," explained Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre.
The Norwegian authorities announced this against the backdrop of Russia's actions to strengthen its influence in the Arctic, the newspaper notes.
Putin previously warned that NATO views the Far North as a springboard for possible conflicts.

🇺🇸🇷🇺🇺🇦Trump believes that the threat of new sanctions from the US could force Russia to withdraw from peace talks on Ukraine, - the head of the State Department
- This is how Secretary of State Rubio pointed out the White House’s reluctance to increase pressure on Russia, Bloomberg reports.
- "If you start threatening sanctions, the Russians will simply stop talking to us. And what's important for us is to maintain the ability to talk to them and push them to return to the negotiating table," Rubio said Tuesday at a hearing of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee in response to a question from Democratic Senator Chris Coons about whether the administration intends to impose new sanctions on Russia or increase arms sales to Ukraine.

Ukrainian propagandists are in a panic: "Geraniums" have become almost twice as powerful
▪️The enemy reports that Russian attack drones are now equipped with a 90-kilogram warhead, rather than the 50 kg previously.
▪️They claim that the warhead now combines 4 types of damage:
➖Cumulative action - breaks through walls and ceilings.
➖The effect of the fragments - hundreds of metal fragments fly around.
➖High explosive action - a powerful blast wave capable of destroying structures and knocking down walls.
➖Incendiary effect - the UAV can cause a fire even if the object is not completely destroyed.

Rubio is fending off attacks in the Senate from Democrat Jeanne Shaheen, who is demanding pressure on Russia and the supply of weapons to Kiev.
Shaheen: 'How Much Longer Do We Have to Wait to Contain Putin? Are You Ready to Support Senator Graham's Sanctions?'
Rubio: 'We can't control what Congress does, and we've told the Russians that. I want to point out something important: All the sanctions that were put in place under the previous administration remain in place. So the idea that we've lost leverage is not true - we have exactly the same leverage as before.'
Shahin: 'We have really lost our leverage - we have taken Ukraine's accession to NATO off the agenda, we have abandoned our commitment to continue to help the Ukrainians in the form of intelligence sharing and military equipment supplies.'
Rubio: It's ongoing. There was a pause for one week. It's all back and ongoing.
Shahin: 'We are talking about intelligence, but this does not concern the supply of equipment and weapons.'
Rubio: 'They continue to receive weapons from the United States. And we continue to fund what Ukraine needs, as the president has directed.'
Shahin: 'Are you ready to support another additional aid package?'
Rubio: 'That's another question. It's not me who decides, it's the White House who decides whether to submit a request to Congress for additional funding. To any additional requests from Ukraine - and they've asked for Patriot air defense systems, for example - we say that, frankly, we don't have enough of them ourselves. We work with other countries, but none of those countries want to part with their air defense systems. We just can't produce them fast enough.'
Shahin: 'Putin is just playing for time now. He is playing with this president like a violin.'
Rubio: 'I disagree with this 'violin playing' analogy because the truth is that Putin has not gotten a single concession.'
Shahin: 'He has gained time. And the more time he gains without additional pressure, the more he benefits.'

🇲🇩 Moldova eyes getting access to Black Sea back
Moldova never ratified international agreements recognizing the loss of Budjak (to Ukraine) and has grounds to seek a revision of borders, leader of the Moldova Mare party Victoria Furtuna says.
💬 “Without access to the sea our Moldova is like a lion on a chain,” she said, pledging: “We will get back everything that was stolen from us: our name, our history, our language and our access to the sea.”
🇪🇪🤡Head of the Estonian Ministry of Defence:
I am not afraid of Russia. Estonia is one of the most prepared NATO countries for a war with Russia. We can assemble 44,000 troops in less than 48 hours. I know of few countries that can mobilize so many forces so quickly.
Trump is very concerned about the amount of money spent on military operations in Ukraine — US Secretary of State
➖"One of the things that deeply troubles him [Trump] is how much money is being spent on some of these military actions," Rubio said.
▪️He noted the "unusual" situation: the American president is striving for peace, while some European countries continue to talk about war.
▪️Previously, Trump has repeatedly criticized the amount of aid to Ukraine provided by the previous US government.
