Zelensky:
"Ukraine does not recognize US military aid as debt. We received a draft of a new agreement on minerals, which is a completely different document than the previous agreement."Читать полностью…
Ukraine's 77th Airmobile Brigade reports its impact on a Russian failed assault: 60–200 KIA, 28 WIA, 12 armored vehicles, 1 tank destroyed. Russia spent 3 weeks preparing, launched 13 armored vehicles, but gained nothing—the front line didn’t move an inch. From 6-10 AM, they bombarded with artillery, mortars, MLRS, FPVs & glide bombs—still failed.

"Russia reserves the right not to implement the moratorium on shelling of energy facilities, which Kiev constantly violates," Kremlin Spokersperson Dmitry Peskov said.

You may write your questions for him just below and I will try to ask those ⬇️
The Trump administration has temporarily reversed its decision to close the Conflict Observatory program, which tracks Ukrainian children abducted by Russia, — Washington Post.
The program will be funded for 6 weeks. But the US does not plan to fund it in the future. During this time, it is planned to transfer the database to Europol so that European law enforcement agencies can continue the investigation.
Now the researchers hope that European governments will join in funding the initiative.
Trump announces that he will place even higher tariffs on the EU and Canada if they decide to coordinate their tariff strategies against the U.S.

Macron convened dozens of leaders to discuss sending peacekeepers to Ukraine. But after lengthy negotiations and a conversation with Trump, no European country has made a public commitment to troops.
Europeans fear that the United States will not support their contingent in the event of a Russian attack. Washington has refrained from making promises, and some American officials have criticized the initiative.
⚡️ Lifting sanctions on Russia now would be a "disaster for diplomacy," Zelenskyy said after the summit in Paris
"Sanctions are one of the few effective levers that the world has to force Russia to engage in serious negotiations. What else do we have besides sanctions? If they are weakened and Russia violates the agreement, the return of sanctions will be slow and difficult. And then many will simply stop believing in their power," the President of Ukraine emphasized.
🫢 Personal numbers, emails, and even passwords of top Trump officials were "leaked" online, - Spiegel.
In particular, the data of White House Counselor Waltz, Director of National Intelligence Gabbard, and Defense Secretary Hegseth were freely available. Some of the officials' work contacts are still tied to social networks such as WhatsApp, Instagram, and Signal.
The negotiations between the US and Russia in Riyadh were "not very productive," said Karasin, a member of the Russian delegation.
Karasin said that US representatives initially tried to portray themselves as negotiators who decide for both sides, but realized that this would not work with the Russian side.
He added that working with the current United States team is "in principle possible."
Trump no longer promises to end the war in 100 days .
His Secretary of State, Rubio, says it will take as long as it takes. Let me remind you that Trump himself previously said that his promise of “peace in 24 hours” was a joke.
🤡 Putin suggested including North Korea in peace talks because they are an important partner for Russia — The Moscow Times

❗️ Hero of the Russian Federation Major Marat Tibilov died while performing a combat mission in the Kursk region, the Russian National Guard reports.
Tibilov is the commander of the Russian National Guard special forces fire group in the Kursk direction. He and his fighters participated in repelling the Ukrainian Armed Forces attack in the Berdin region in February.
On February 23, Russian President Vladimir Putin presented the Gold Star medal to Ossetian native, Russian National Guard officer Marat Tibilov, call sign "Talib", who was awarded the title Hero of Russia.
The Russians again struck the Sudzha gas metering station and blamed Ukraine.

It can be noticed that a bigger amount of Shaheds is able to get past Ukrainian air defense and inflict damage due to an improved 'swarm attack' strategy.
The US gains control over key resources in Ukraine
The new version of the agreement proposed by Trump involves transferring control over Ukrainian roads, ports, mines, oil, gas and minerals to the Americans, Bloomberg reports.
The US will receive “first choice” for investments and profits from a “reconstruction fund” majority-owned by Americans. Half of Ukraine’s revenues will go to this fund, and the US will take the rest, plus 4% per annum.
For a year, Kyiv will not be able to sell resources or offer infrastructure projects to other states if they compete with the United States.

"Middle Eastern nations believed Putin was ready for peace, while Ukraine was not—thanks to Russian propaganda. Now, it’s clear: Putin isn’t ready. This shift has brought new diplomatic engagement from previously neutral countries."
Outcome of Engels attack which happened 3 days ago:
96 cruise missiles destroyed as a result of the Ukrainian Armed Forces strike on the Engels-2 airfield
The attack on the airfield took place on March 20. The destroyed missiles were to be used for 3 missile strikes on Ukraine.
