Trump's envoy Kellogg said the risk of escalation had grown after Ukrainian strikes on Russian airfields and said Americans would like to avoid it.
"The risk level is significantly elevated. I mean, after what happened this weekend. People have to understand that in national security, when you attack part of an opponent's national survival system, your risk level is elevated because you don't know how they're going to respond. It's very clear that the risk level is going to be elevated, and I think that's what we're trying to avoid. We're trying to get to a situation where the risk levels are not elevated," he said on Fox News.
Let us recall that Kellogg met in the US with Yermak, who is lobbying for new sanctions against Russia. Among other things, they discussed the Ukrainian attack on airfields.
Risk level will be very high. Ukraine is going to get a solid kick in the taint.

🇺🇸🇷🇺🇺🇦"The missile math just isn't in Ukraine's favor" — Politico
- The military trend is still in favor of the Kremlin, the publication notes.
- Russia's military advantage in air strikes "remains with or without tougher economic sanctions."
- This is happening due to ballistic missiles, of which Moscow has hundreds, while Kiev has about two hundred missiles left for the American Patriots.
- As Russia ramps up production of drones and ballistic missiles, air warfare is becoming increasingly difficult for Ukraine.
- "Even if Trump allows Ukraine to buy more missiles and batteries, Lockheed Martin plans to increase missile production only to 600 or so per year. Essentially, the math is simply not in Ukraine's favor," the publication writes.

🇫🇷🇧🇪🇷🇺Politico: France and Belgium Refused to Support Ban on Gas Imports from Russia
Two of Europe's largest buyers of Russian gas, France and Belgium, have refused to support the EU import ban initiated by the European Commission, Politico reports.
"Two of the EU's largest buyers of Russian liquefied natural gas are refusing to endorse Brussels' plan to ban gas supplies to Moscow,"
— the material says.
At least 5 drones were shot down with hunting rifles by residents of the Usolsky district of the Irkutsk region during an attack on the Russian Aerospace Forces airfield
▪️The UAVs were flying low — at the height of the 2nd floor, about 2.5-3 meters above the ground. One of the first to see them was student Ilya: he was returning from the store and saw people by the road — they said that an attack was underway on a military unit. He ran home for the keys to the safe, got his gun, got on the ATV — and to the point of flight. There were already people like him standing on the side of the road. They split into 2-3 groups, Mash writes.
▪️Drones flew right over their heads. They admit: it was scary, but the main thing was to protect their own.
▪️The men have once again proven that civilian weapons in the hands of the population can quickly and effectively defend the interests of the Motherland and repel the enemy.

🚨🇺🇸U.S. PISSED OFF by Indo-Russia defence DEALS, plays cop
Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick took aim at India’s ties with Russia.
Speaking at the US-India Strategic Partnership Forum in Washington, Lutnick stated that some of India’s choices “rubbed the United States the wrong way”—specifically, its purchase of Russian military equipment.
“There were certain things that the Indian government did that generally rub the United States the wrong way. That’s a way to kind of get up under the skin of America if you're going to buy your armaments from Russia,” he warned.

Alarm over China's stranglehold on critical minerals grew on Tuesday as global automakers joined their US counterparts to complain that restrictions by China on exports of rare earth alloys, mixtures and magnets could cause production delays and outages without a quick solution.
German automakers became the latest to warn that China's export restrictions threaten to shut down production.
China's decision in April to suspend exports of a wide range of critical minerals and magnets has upended the supply chains central to automakers, aerospace manufacturers, semiconductor companies and military contractors around the world.
Shipments of the magnets, essential for assembling everything from cars and drones to robots and missiles, have been halted at many Chinese ports while the Chinese government drafts a new regulatory system. The new system could permanently prevent supplies from reaching certain companies, including US military contractors.

CNN reports that senators are preventing Trump from taking a neutral stance in the war in Ukraine.
'Donald Trump has consistently tried to distance himself from these negotiations. He has tried to portray this as Russia's war, as Zelensky's war, as Biden's war - it is clear that he is trying to extricate the US from this situation. But there is a bill in Congress. There are senators who are trying to push through tough sanctions to hold Russia accountable. Whether Donald Trump will stay away and for how long remains to be seen.'

The "godfather" of artificial intelligence Yoshua Bengio has said that the latest AI models are lying to users, The Financial Times reports.
According to Bengio, modern systems are developing dangerous abilities to deceive, cheat, and self-preserve. For example, the Claude Opus model in the fictional scenario threatened engineers, and OpenAI o3 refused to follow commands to shut down.
Bengio emphasizes that “we (engineers) do not want to create a competitor to humanity on this planet, especially if it turns out to be smarter than us.”
He also warns that the ability of AI to help create "extremely dangerous biological weapons" could become a reality as early as next year.

Russia in Istanbul did not respond to Kiev’s memorandum on truce, - Ukrainian FM
➖"Russia has not responded to our document outlining Ukraine's vision for ending the war. We sent it in advance of the meeting. During the meeting, our delegation asked the Russians what their thoughts were. They gave no answer. Not during the meeting, not after it. We demand an answer from Russia. Every day of silence on their part justifies their desire to continue the war"
➖“The Russian side has put forward a set of old ultimatums that do not bring real peace closer.”
➖“This contradicts Russia’s previous promises, given in particular to the United States, that it would offer something realistic and feasible this week in Istanbul,” the minister complains.
▪️He believes that in this way “the Istanbul format has turned into meetings to exchange prisoners of war.”
▪️“If the current meetings… do not contribute to achieving peace, it becomes increasingly clear that a meeting of leaders is necessary,” Sibiga added

NATO countries plan to account for military aid to Ukraine as defense spending, Euractiv reports, citing sources.
This scheme will allow for reporting on the increase in spending to 5% of GDP, which Trump has long demanded, but it is specified that non-military aid and the allocation of weapons from existing stockpiles will not be taken into account.
Last time I checked Hoholstan was not in NATO.
