If Trump were genuinely concerned about the Russian threat, he wouldn’t be halting military aid to Ukraine, cutting humanitarian assistance, repeating Russian talking points, launching trade wars against allies, or trying to undermine the very force holding back Russian aggression: NATO.

For those who need a clear perspective of Ukrainian dominance of Russian tactics. Brilliant!

As I keep saying: Putin needs a win. He’s bogged down in Donbas, ~1.2m casualties, an economy teetering, and 11 years in he still hasn’t achieved a single objective of his full scale invasion, not even taking all of Donetsk Oblast.

Incredible effort. Well.done to all involved 👏

WITLESS WITKOFF ACTS AS RUSSIAN STOOGE This excerpt tells you exactly how dim and deluded this man is. In later parts of the transcript he advises the Russians what to do and say to get through to Trump and against Zelensky.

Ukraine never wanted this war. Russia invaded our country. Nobody in this world wants peace more than Ukrainians, whose towns and villages are being razed, whose children are being abducted, whose families are being burned alive in their own homes by Russian drones and missiles. 1

Brilliant work by all involved 👏

NATO had had enough. It was time to teach the Russians a lesson and make it plain these air incursions were no longer going to be tolerated. When the Russians obliged NATO sprang its trap. This is what happened...

Superb news re The Shadows.

US TO RAMP UP SANCTIONS Trump’s irritated by Putin again and is about to intensify sanctions, but several video outlets are claiming Tomahawks are back on the table - without really thinking it through. The WSJ seems to think they’re imminent while that was shouted down by the White House. However

UKRAINE & SWEDEN SIGN DEAL FOR SALE OF 150 GRIPEN E/F Ukraine has signed a deal with Sweden for the intent to buy 150 fighters. These are likely to be mostly the F variant with the new Rolls Royce variant engine, which is said to be superior to the US supplied engine on the E variant. The first

President Zelenskyy: Putin is afraid of his society because he wants to be president until he dies. And that's why, of course, he needs society to support him. That's why he counts on continuation of this war. And that is the big question, the big challenge for all of us.

About 1 in every 5 destroyed Russian tanks has been destroyed by Lasar's Group, a unit of heavy bomber drones. Pavlo has built an extremely effective unit and has helped many other Ukrainian commanders implement their approach. Pavlo's innovativeness has helped Ukraine a lot.

BEGOROOD CHP PLANT WAS HIT BY HIMARS The Russian thermal power and heating plant at Belgorod was apparently hit by HIMARS - which would have required US permission. This may be on a case by case basis but it shows that the administration has lightened its approach to what Ukraine fires at inside

Well, surprise! Skunks.

it’s gaining momentum and speed is building. It’s already exceeded the 155mm target and is set to double its original target by year end. Just one example of many where we’re exceeding expectations. Russia woke the sleeping dragon. Vladimir Putin has to be the worst strategist on the planet

Surreal moment for a great kid 😎

Look at this lads face - he can hardly believe it’s real - I can only imagine how he feels at that age because I know how I would have felt, the pride and honour. It’s hard enough just being in the same room 20ft away as an adult. We put so much into our desire for Ukraine to win and Zelensky

Nobody that I personally know or follow on social media who has been supporting Ukraine the last 3.5 years has stopped supporting Ukraine. Literally nobody. Russia continues to lose allies and supporters every day. Continue supporting Ukraine! Russia will be defeated!
