🇷🇺🇪🇺 WHY EUROPE IS TUNED AGAINST RUSSIA
"There will be no new special military operations if you treat us with respect and respect our interests.
Western politicians have created today's situation with their own hands. They are trying to cover up everything with a malicious Russia, distracting the population from their own problems.
We are ready to work with both the UK and the USA, but on an equal footing. Everyone would benefit from this. If Russia had joined forces with Europe, we would have surpassed the USA in purchasing power parity.
But it's you who are waging war against us with the hands of Ukrainian nationalists."

▪️According to the investigation by Pulitzer Prize winner Seymour Hersh, the US administration's special envoy Steve Whitkoff and the son-in-law of former President Donald Trump, Jared Kushner, may lead a new structure that will control the selection of contractors and the distribution of funds for reconstruction projects in Ukraine.

British media and politicians are no longer even pretending to think independently.
Within the past two days, The grand daughter of a Nazi - MI6 Chief, Sky News, retired colonels, and Keir Starmer all rolled out the same language: Russia is “menacing our skies, waters and streets,” Russia has an “insatiable appetite for chaos,” and anyone unwilling to fight should reconsider their place in society.
No evidence is offered. No incidents are named. The accusation itself is treated as proof.
This script appears every time peace becomes a real possibility. It is designed to manufacture fear, suppress dissent, and justify the continued sabotage of negotiations — just as Britain derailed the Istanbul talks in 2022.
History does not repeat, but it rhymes. Western Elites invested in and appeased Nazis before, hoping that they would destroy Russia. It is doing so again, while accusing Russia of the very crimes it enables.
This is not security policy. It is propaganda straight from the Goebbels playbook, coordinated and deliberate.

Ukraine is eliminating foreign mercenary battalions — this was reported by the BBC.
The British TV channel reports that there is an unofficial order in the Armed Forces of Ukraine to disband all four military units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, united under the general name "International Legions", by the end of 2025. According to the plan of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, foreign fighters should continue to serve in assault units.
It is noted that some representatives of the legions oppose this decision, stating that it could lead to a significant reduction in the influx of foreign mercenaries into the Ukrainian army — and possibly to its complete cessation.
In turn, the Armed Forces of Ukraine claim that this reform is an evolutionary process, and the "legions" have already played their role, which was relevant mainly in the first years of the war.
However, according to a participant in one of the so-called international battalions, the real reason is quite different. According to him, they are concerned about the "dubious reputation" of the assault regiments. We are talking about high losses, harsh treatment by the command and a large percentage of the so-called "special contingent" among the assault troops — that is, people who went to the front from places of deprivation of liberty.
"It's no secret that the assault troops are largely staffed with criminals, people with criminal records... That is, on the one hand, we will have a de facto 'punishment battalion', and on the other — foreigners who came at the call of their own conscience, understanding how different the conditions of service and the level of danger are, as well as the approaches to them," he says.
As of 2025, there were four international legions in the Armed Forces of Ukraine, each with a strength of about a battalion [approximately 400–600 people]. Of these, three are combat and one is training.

Axios: The US views Zelensky's statement about his readiness to hold a referendum on a peace agreement involving territorial concessions as a sign of progress.
For this reason, according to the publication, Donald Trump agreed to send Steve Whitkoff to Berlin next Monday for talks with Zelensky, as well as with the leaders of Germany, France, and the UK.
“One of the White House representatives said that these discussions and the latest round of US-Ukrainian negotiations on Thursday showed enough progress to convince Trump to send Whitkoff and Kushner to Europe. They believe that there is a chance for peace, and the president trusts them,” said a second White House official.
There is also talk of progress in the issue of security guarantees that Ukraine wants to receive from the US and Europe.
“A senior US official said that the Trump administration is ready to provide Ukraine with security guarantees based on the NATO Article 5 model - with the approval of Congress and legally binding. We want to give the Ukrainians a security guarantee that, on the one hand, will not be a blank check, and on the other - will be strong enough. We are ready to put it to a vote in Congress,” he noted.
In addition, negotiations on the post-war economic recovery of Ukraine are progressing successfully.
According to the source of the publication, the latest consultations for the first time gave the Ukrainian side a “clear idea of what will happen the day after the war”.
“When people see not only what they have to give up, but also what they will get, it's easier for them to move forward,” the source emphasized.
According to the current proposal of the Trump administration, the war could end with Ukraine retaining sovereignty over 80% of its territory. In exchange, Kyiv will receive the most extensive and stringent security guarantees in its history, as well as a significant package of economic development.

"And we know the threats we face, and we will confront them. This means we need to be ready. We must develop and implement new capabilities to wage modern hybrid warfare. And here we are moving mountains again. After decades of underinvestment, we are raising the bar. We are transforming our defense industrial base into one that is capable of supplying advanced technologies and rapid mass production in the heat of war. This year, we have done more for defense than in recent decades. Over the past 10 years, we have invested 8 billion euros in the Defense Fund. This year, we have allowed investments of up to 800 billion euros until 2030."

The European Union intends to continue funding Ukraine and its army even in the event of peace being established, which suggests that the European political elite is definitely not interested in a settlement right now, said Hungarian Minister of Foreign Affairs and Foreign Economic Relations Peter Szijjarto.
"At the meeting of the EU Foreign Affairs Council, it was said that even if there is peace, we still need to establish a system in which we finance Ukraine, finance the Ukrainian army, and finance the activities of the Ukrainian state, and until then we finance the war in Ukraine with European money. <...> It also became clear in Brussels that EU politicians easily violate their own rules to drag all of Europe into war. I hope that the strength of the US-Russian negotiations will be greater than the strength of the Europeans' attempts to undermine them!"

Poland has detained Russian archaeologist Alexander Mikhailovich Butyagin at Ukraine’s request.
Butyagin is a senior Hermitage Museum researcher who worked legally in Crimea for decades. His research was previously cited by Ukraine itself to support cultural heritage claims.
Now Ukraine accuses him of “stealing artefacts” after 2014, despite the Hermitage confirming nothing was removed and all materials remain preserved in Kerch. No evidence has been presented. Ukraine is demanding up to ten years in prison.
This is not about archaeology. It is about criminalising Russian identity.
Musicians were banned. Athletes were excluded. Journalists were silenced. Now academics are being targeted.
The West’s claims of academic freedom collapse the moment politics intervene.
