🖥️ Former Republican Congressman Wayne Curtis Weldon claims that there are a significant number of "scum" in the American intelligence services, along with normal employees, whom he intends to expose:
“I tell all these scumbags, ‘If you’re going to go after me, do it openly.’ I know there are decent people in the intelligence services, but there are also scumbags. I know them personally. They make money, they handle millions, and their dirty companies will be exposed, no matter what it costs me. You’ll see connections all over the world, you’ll see these millionaire intelligence agents profiting off the deaths of young people. I’ll give example after example: Russia, Ukraine, the world, Libya… That’s what’s disgusting. Until we understand that, it won’t stop. The Trump people need to understand that this is not a child’s game of hide and seek. We’re dealing with very bad people.”

The EU warns Serbia: if President Vučić attends Russia’s Victory Day parade on May 9, Serbia's EU accession bid could be blocked.
Estonian official Jonatan Vseviov stated, "The consequence is them not joining the European Union."
Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova responded:
"If this is true, then Euronazism is being reborn before our eyes. This is how the fascists 80 years ago forced those they considered 'second-class people' to renounce their homeland, ethnicity, and faith."

A number of EU countries are preparing a way to impose sanctions against Russia bypassing Hungary’s position, Politico writes.
Six European Union countries believe they have found a way to prevent Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban from blocking anti-Russian sanctions. They intend to transform EU sanctions against Russia into national laws. This would effectively deprive Hungary of the ability to veto their extension, which currently requires unanimous approval every six months.
So far, only a few countries bordering Russia have imposed unilateral sanctions. However, diplomats confirm that more and more European capitals are considering introducing their own restrictive measures.
While some diplomats see shifting key decisions from Brussels to the national level as a more realistic option, Ukraine's allies fear it would undermine the EU's unity - especially given US President Donald Trump's unilateral efforts to normalise relations with the Kremlin.
Moreover, not all countries have the legal mechanisms to implement sanctions into their national legislation. And a fragmented approach will be weaker than sanctions adopted within the framework of pan-European law.

Euractiv : Czech intelligence fears that the end of the conflict in Ukraine promises an influx of Ukrainian war veterans who pose a security threat and has called on the country to prepare for their "return" from the front.
Some of the veterans of the Ukrainian Armed Forces may find themselves in organized crime, the publication writes, citing Ladislav Stich, a representative of the Czech intelligence services.
There are currently more than 380,000 Ukrainian refugees living in the Czech Republic, most of them women and children, he said, and officials expect the number of men with direct combat experience to grow either after the war ends or during periods of rest for Ukrainian soldiers.
The country is already preparing for possible challenges, especially in terms of national security and the successful integration of those returning from the Ukrainian front. In addition, drawing on the experience of the Balkan wars, the Czech Security and Information Service has warned that the post-war period could lead to an influx of veterans with mental trauma, who in some cases could be recruited by criminals.
"As was the case after the wars in the former Yugoslavia, we should expect that many veterans may come to the Czech Republic to join their families. Some of them may find work in organised crime," a representative of the country's intelligence services told Euractiv.
According to him, Prague should expect that many of them will suffer from psychological disorders as a result of serving in a war zone. Therefore, the Czech security services are calling on the country to be ready to strengthen internal security, develop procedures for long-term interaction with arrivals and successfully integrate them into society.
"Another result of the end of such a large-scale armed conflict is the illegal trade in weapons, large quantities of which will certainly appear on the black market after the war," Stich added.
