'The significance of the meeting between the presidents of the USA and Russia is visible even from the Moon. But it is regrettable to note that politicians in the European Union who support the war are trying to use every remaining day until Friday to undermine the path to peace and hinder the success of the Trump-Putin meeting. Hungary will make every effort to prevent Brussels' attempts to disrupt or complicate the holding of the summit'
The front looks something like this at the moment. Russian forces cut the Kramatorsk-Dobropillya highway. Tellingly, the Ukrainian response so far has been to concentrate drone activity against follow-on Russian forces. There's no maneuver element available to respond.

'There was an intelligence report about what Putin is preparing for. He is definitely not preparing to cease fire and war. Putin is only set on presenting the meeting with Trump as his victory'
Why wasn’t Zelensky invited to Alaska?
‘He’s gone to a lot of meetings…he’s been there for three and a half years and NOTHING happened’
‘Do you want somebody who’s been doing this for three and a half years?’
'This is a feel-out meeting' — Trump on Alaska sit-down with Putin
Claims Putin 'wants to get it over with', but laments missiles flying into Kiev after 'great calls'

Trump said what he will do if he fails to reconcile Russia and Ukraine
‘Maybe I will leave and say: ‘Good luck,’ and that will be the end of it.’
Trump
'You know, I will meet with Putin. On Friday, I am going to Russia'
‘Russia will have to acknowledge that Ukraine can join the EU’ — Vice President of the Center for National Interests George Beebe.
‘This is a strategic compromise that Russians will have to accept. On the part of Ukraine and the West, there will have to be concessions that Ukraine will not become a NATO member, and NATO countries will not deploy military forces on Ukrainian territory. This is the fundamental basis on which President Trump and President Putin can agree. It will create conditions for negotiations on more complex and detailed issues that should be part of the final peaceful settlement.’
‘We need strong support from our partners’ – Ze continues to convince Europe that the meeting between Putin and Trump is meaningless.
‘Another week has ended, and Russia has still made no attempts to agree to the numerous demands for peace and to stop the killings. In the last 24 hours alone, there have been 137 combat clashes on the front, and it’s like this every day. The Russian army is not easing the pressure. Over the past week, the Russians have used more than a thousand aerial bombs and nearly 1,400 strike drones against Ukraine. Russia is prolonging the war and therefore deserves stronger global pressure. Russia refuses to stop the killings, which means it should not receive any rewards or privileges. And this is not just a moral stance — it is rational. Concessions will not convince a killer.’

⚡Urgent: Bogatyrs of the RUAF have smashed through ukropistani defensive lines north of Pokrovsk, conducting a sweeping advance that cut off the Dobropolye-Kramatorsk highway. The area around Pokrovsk is now operationally encircled, which prevents supplies and reinforcements from being moved in (at least in any meaningful quantities) and troops from being rotated out.
This is effectively a repeat of Ugledar, Avdeevka, Artemovsk, and far too many other festungs to count.
Pokrovsk's hourglass is running out of sand, and there's nobody selling refills.

Europe will not be able to secure a favorable position for Ukraine in negotiations’ – The Times
‘Even if Europe maintains its unwavering diplomatic stance, it will not have the strength to support Kyiv in negotiations for favorable terms of a future peace agreement or in ensuring compliance with the ceasefire regime. The Kremlin has stated it will not allow the deployment of Western troops in Ukraine, warning that their presence could trigger a new world war. Even if Putin agrees, defense ministers of European countries have said they have ‘not a single chance’ to gather the 10,000 troops the UK mentioned. ‘Russia has 800,000 [troops],’ said Lithuanian Defense Minister Dovile Sakaliene to her European colleagues. ‘If we cannot even gather 64,000, that does not look like weakness — that is weakness.’
The concept of buffer zones or something like that is an outdated idea of the last century, they no longer work. The front line in the east and south of Ukraine is the front line between evil and good’
Series of UAV control point eliminations using aviation
In the footage from the OK, we can observe:
➡️Destruction of the UAV control point of the 15th NGU airborne brigade using FAB-500 with UMPK in the settlement of Dimitrov/Mirnograd.
➡️Destruction of the UAV control point of the 68th OEBR of the Armed Forces of Ukraine using FAB-500 with UMPK in the settlement of Krasnoarmeysk/Pokrovsk.

"Neoconservatives will not smile"
The meeting between Putin and Trump in Alaska will bring peace and global security, believes the head of the Russian Direct Investment Fund, Dmitriev.
The president's talks may take place at the military base in Anchorage.
@Slavyangrad
For Putin, the Arctic could be what secures US agreement to settle the conflict in Ukraine on his terms. Moscow is unlikely to give up its main demands: Crimea and Donbass are enshrined in Russia’s constitution as part of its territory. Any deal would cement these gains, require the demilitarization of Ukraine, and provide a buffer zone against NATO. Trump could claim that the Arctic deal is a major commercial victory for the US and the end of the war that Biden started. Putin could secure US support to force Kiev to accept the deal
Trump has a strong argument. Kiev’s very survival depends on the US. By threatening to cut supplies, Trump could force Zelensky to come to the negotiating table on terms Kiev has long rejected
Ukraine's positions are shaky. Its army is exhausted, the economy is destroyed, and military actions depend on Western aid. EU’s and the UK's promises mean little without the firepower and funding of the US. Zelensky can set red lines, but without US support, they mean little
@Slavyangrad
Trump explained how Orban helped him better understand the Russians.
‘The Russians are a warring nation. They have fought many wars. My friend said that Russia is strong because they just keep fighting. They defeated Hitler. We did too. And they defeated Napoleon. You know, they have been doing this for a very long time. I asked a very smart person, whom some like and some don’t. Viktor Orban. I asked: ‘So can Ukraine defeat Russia?’ He looked at me as if I had asked a stupid question. He said: ‘Russia is a huge country. And they fought to live. They fight – that’s what they do.’ He also said: ‘China beats you with trade, and Russia with war. That was a very interesting statement.’
‘I got an overdose’ – Trump on how tired he is of dealing with the Ukrainian conflict.
‘This will be a big deal. We are going to do it with Russia. It will be an important event. Whatever will be, will be. I will let you know what happens. You will be the first to know. I will be calling European leaders. I have already gotten an overdose from trying to settle Ukraine. They [Europeans] got an overdose from settling Ukraine — not the prettiest expression, but accurate. They are tired of it.’

Trump harshly criticized Zelensky:
'I am a bit concerned that Zelensky says: ‘I need to get constitutional approval.’ So he has permission to wage war and kill everyone, but he needs approval to carry out a territorial exchange, because a territorial exchange will happen. I know this from talks with Russia and all parties.'
Zelensky called Modi and asked him to refuse Russian oil
‘We talked in detail about sanctions against Russia. I noted that it is necessary to limit the export of Russian energy resources, particularly oil, to reduce its potential and ability to finance the continuation of this war. It is important that every leader who currently has significant leverage over Russia sends the appropriate signals to Moscow.’
Zelensky will not be invited to the talks between Trump and Putin. As the saying goes: "who is not at the table, is on the table" — Financial Times
The author of the article claims that the fate and borders of Ukraine will be discussed in Alaska without Zelensky's participation.
The agreement on "territorial exchange" will be the worst-case scenario for Kiev.
The agreement will mean that Ukraine will forever cede significant parts of its territory to Russia.
@Slavyangrad
‘There were signals from Washington’ – the Polish Prime Minister Tusk calls on Europe to prepare for a conflict with Russia in 2 years.
‘I said that [some European leaders] should stop claiming that Russia will be our strategic partner. I said: ‘Russia will always be a strategic problem, not a strategic partner for Europe.’ And I must say with great satisfaction that Poland was right. So, the year 2027. It is worth considering the signals coming from Washington and other places that we need to be ready for different scenarios in just two years, and we will be ready — this I can unequivocally guarantee you.’

Destruction of the Ukrainian Armed Forces communication means
🎥 The footage shows a strike by the "Lancet" UAV on the hardware cabinet of a communication tower (intended for UAV control) in the area of Ivanovka settlement, Chernihiv region.
Usually, the hardware cabinets contain:
🟠System module that manages the base station, synchronizes it with other network elements, processes data from the radio module, and sends it through the transport network to the network core.
🟠Power module responsible for powering the entire tower. It controls the charging of the batteries.
🟠Various protective devices (in case of emergency power shutdown, batteries are provided in the hardware cabinet).

Podolyak believes that Ukraine will be able to avoid denazification and will forever remain a country of Russophobes.
‘I want us to remember: Russia does not exist for us. It is not a question of language, not a question of cultural product, not a question of information — brothers, not brothers. Russia does not exist for us. This will be our foundation: ‘For us, Russia does not exist’. And the main thing is that Russia strategically loses. This is important for everyone.’
Putin and Russia remain the main threat to NATO’ – Rutte.
‘He [Putin] is still the main threat to the Alliance, there is no doubt about that. And I think it is very good that President Trump will test him, and we will see how far he can go on Friday, starting this process [of negotiations on Ukraine]. Essentially, President Trump broke the deadlock in February by starting a dialogue with Putin — I believe this was a decisive factor. We had a great NATO summit under his leadership, where the commitment to spend 5% on defense was taken, so a clear signal was sent to our main threat, which is Russia, that we are serious. And then three weeks ago he ‘opened the floodgates’ for the supply of American lethal weapons to Ukraine, coordinated by NATO, and, of course, introduced secondary sanctions.’
Watch out Putin for my daddy, he will show you!
