Politico published a large article about Andriy Yermak, whom critics in the article call a "ruthless political puppeteer," a figure "even equal" to Zelensky, and talk about his presidential ambitions.
"Ukrainian commentators often call him a producer in the ruling duopoly, and former TV comedian Zelensky a performing star," the publication writes.
Former Zelenskyy spokesperson Yulia Mendel said that Yermak "stuck" to Zelenskyy immediately after arriving at Bankova, became close to him, spending a lot of time together in an underground gym, and then "outsmarted" Andriy Bohdan, receiving the position of head of the OP.
The article claims that Yermak has helped oust many Ukrainian officials, replacing them with loyal figures, causing "internal unease" and "quiet dismay among Western allies, who, however, have been reluctant to publicly criticize it for fear of giving Moscow propaganda opportunities."
According to sources, one of the few who managed to hold on against Yermak’s will was the head of the Main Intelligence Directorate, Budanov, who retained independent access to Zelensky.
"Yermak is a brilliant psychologist. He is able to read Zelensky and anticipate what he wants. He is careful in offering ready-made solutions to Zelensky, who hates being drawn into details, and does not cause him problems," says the former minister, "who clashed sharply with Yermak."
Mendel says Yermak built his network in the 1990s working at Kiev’s premier nightclub, a hangout for "gangsters and prominent pro-Russian politicians," and later as a middleman at luxury clothing store Sanahunt, helping import exclusive items for oligarchs.
Yermak himself denies all accusations of monopolizing power, as well as his presidential ambitions.

Let's bet that we can allocate more missiles to Germany than Germany can to Ukraine?
@Slavyangrad
The Bundestag reports where the 5 billion euros allocated to Ukraine will be directed:
- financing the production of long-range weapons in Ukraine;
- additional ammunition, in particular for air defense;
- repair facilities in Ukraine, creation of a joint venture;
- partial financing of the work of Starlink and the Ukrainian military command communications system;
- medical equipment.
@Slavyangrad
The heads of the German and Ukrainian defense ministries have signed an agreement on Berlin financing the production of long-range weapons for Kiev, the German department reported.
Kiev will receive 5 billion euros in military aid from Germany.
Behind-the-scenes rumors have already started to spread through Ukrainian Telegram channels. Here is the comment from "Legitimny":
The meeting in Berlin took place in a "tense" atmosphere. Zelensky asked Merz for new supplies of air defense, missiles and equipment. He also asked for cash loans from the EU, but was required to tighten mobilization.
There are rumors in the corridors that Trump will emerge from the Ukrainian crisis by the end of the summer saying, "These guys don't want to negotiate, let them fight. This is Europe's problem!"
There will be an escalation in the fall. In the fall there will be a tightening of (male) mobilization from 20 years of age and an expansion of female.
Ukrainian hustler gets 5 billion Euros out of Merz. Once again confirming Germany has elected another weak spineless leader.

British bioethanol plants could close after London reached a deal with the Trump administration, the Financial Times reports.
The United States has received a duty-free quota for the supply of 1.4 billion liters of fuel, which can meet the country's annual demand for it.
As part of the agreement with the White House on May 8, Britain also approved the import of 13,000 tons of beef. In exchange, the White House lowered import duties on cars from 25% to 10%.
In the end, Britain is just a small island with a government which is full of twats...

Greenland may turn to China for help in extracting minerals from the country if the US and EU shun investment in its companies, - Financial Times.
Greenland's Business and Trade Minister Naaja Nathanielsen told the newspaper that American and European mining companies should hurry to invest in Greenland or it will have to look elsewhere, including China, for help developing its mineral wealth.
"We want to develop our business sector and diversify it, and for that we need investment from outside,"
"We do want to cooperate with European and American partners. But if they don't show up, I think we need to look elsewhere."
“We are trying to understand what the new world order looks like. In that sense, Chinese investment is certainly problematic, but so is American investment to some extent,”

'We'll know in two weeks. Whitkoff is negotiating tough' - Trump on whether he believes Russia wants peace
Do you think the Russians are being disrespectful when they say that your criticism of Putin is just an emotional reaction? And do you still believe that Putin really wants to end the war?
I can’t tell you that, but I’ll know in about two weeks. We’ll figure it out soon. We’ll know if he’s leading us on or not. And if he is, we’ll react a little differently. It’ll take about a week, maybe two. We have Mr. Witkoff, he’s here, he’s doing a fantastic job, he’s negotiating hard with them now. They seem to really want to get something done, but until the document is signed, I can’t say for sure. No one can.

I was drunk and wrote bad things about Russians and a KAB flew into my house near Kharkov, - Ex-MP Dobkin

Skabeeva reports that Medinsky caught Zelensky in a lie:
I read the news, spread by all the world agencies, that Umerov allegedly called me about the memorandum, which we, allegedly, still have not prepared. They say that the Russians are in no hurry. I will comment. Everything was almost like that. Only the other way around.
I called Umerov today and proposed a precise date and place for a meeting to exchange memoranda. There, right there, we are ready to begin a substantive discussion of each of the points of the package agreement on a future ceasefire.
The Ukrainian side went to consult. Apparently, the meeting dragged on. We are waiting for confirmation from them as soon as possible and are ready to meet in person on the date we have designated – in the coming days – and start working. In the interests of long-term peace and saving human lives'
Zelensky on Kiev's participation in the upcoming NATO summit:
We have received signals from partners regarding Ukraine's participation in the NATO summit. But we would like to have a frank conversation with our partners. It is important what Ukraine's participation will be and what its result will be. I think this is right and fair.
In my opinion, if Ukraine does not attend the NATO summit, it will be Putin’s victory, but not over Ukraine, but over NATO.

@Slavyangrad
Word in Moscow is if Merz uses German weapons to strike Moscow - and we all know that Kiev has no independent capacity to operate Tauruses or other long-range missiles - then Russia will have no choice but to strike Berlin directly.
Simple enough.

German Chancellor Merz made a promise to Zelensky:
Thank you on behalf of Germany. For our part, we will do everything to ensure that Nord Stream 2 can never be launched.
🇷🇺Medvedev - on strikes on German territory in response to the use of German missiles by the Ukrainian Armed Forces :
Germany is already a participant in the conflict: its equipment and specialists are directly fighting Russia. And these are not just military supplies. In essence, this is a full-fledged, not hybrid, participation in the military conflict. Thus, Germany is again an enemy of Russia, again taking part in the war, guided by the Nazi ideology they created, and Merz is a loyal descendant of his relatives who fought in the Wehrmacht.
[Will Russia have the right to strike German territory in response to the launch of German missiles by German specialists?]
If there is information that German military specialists are participating in the launch of long-range missiles at Russian territory, any decision on retaliatory actions can be made. It is within the competence of the Supreme Commander-in-Chief. No one can block the right to full-fledged defense of our country and this has been repeatedly emphasized by the head of our state.

What prevents you from introducing sanctions against Russia?

🇩🇪🇺🇦Germany will allocate about €5 billion for military support to Ukraine, the German Defense Ministry announced . The funds will be used to create capacities for the production of long-range weapons, as well as the supply of air defense systems and ammunition. This will be financed from funds already approved by the Bundestag.
The agreements are set out in a memorandum signed today by Umerov and Pistorius in Berlin. Kiev also signed an agreement with the German defense company Diehl to supply Ukraine with air defense systems and related ammunition.
