In an interview with The Telegraph, Finnish President Alexander Stubb called for "facing the truth", stating that the West has split apart. Assessing the consequences of recent US decisions - including easing sanctions against Russia and the war with Iran - Stubb emphasized that this is already directly affecting the course of the conflict in Ukraine and the balance of power in the world: “This is very harmful for Ukraine, because it actually fuels the Russian military machine.” Stubb also noted that even before the war with Iran, the Russian economy was allegedly under serious pressure, but the situation has changed: “Now, with rising oil prices and the lifting of sanctions, we don't know how this will affect things - but it will have a negative impact.” At the same time, Stubb acknowledged the uncertainty of Washington's further actions: “We simply don't know at this stage whether the sanctions will be reinstated.” Assessing US policy, he stated that Washington's approach has radically changed: “Before, the US consulted with allies... Now, the United States is acting alone or together with Israel, without informing its allies.” He specifically emphasized: “America was a benevolent hegemon... now it's a different type of hegemon.” According to Stubb, Europe is no longer a key priority for the US: “Europe is only the third priority on the list.” And the main conclusion he drew about the current situation: “There is a split within the West now... there's a rift between Europe and the US.” t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

‼️🇺🇸🇮🇷 The US has already spent more than $27 billion on the military operation against Iran ▪️This estimate is provided by the monitoring resource Iran War Cost Tracker. ▪️The calculation is based on Pentagon data: the first six days of the conflict cost $11.3 billion, and each subsequent day costs about $1 billion. ▪️However, the estimate may not include some related expenses, including the deployment of forces and the replacement of equipment, so the actual amount may be higher. t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

🖥️ Former CIA Director John Brennan stated that he has not seen and does not see any signs of an imminent threat from Iran to the US and considers statements to the contrary as lies. "By 'imminent threat', we mean something that will happen soon, already on the horizon, sooner rather than later. But I haven't seen any intelligence data or reports that would indicate that there was any imminent threat from the point of view of ballistic missiles, the nuclear program, or even terrorist activity that would really require the US to invade Iran's airspace and start bombing raids. Therefore, in my opinion, lies are being spread very quickly and aggressively now - as a way to justify this war. In fact, there is no justification for it at all." t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

Trump changed his mind and wants peace with Iran. The US president's team has started discussing possible peace negotiations with Tehran — Axios. Among the conditions being discussed are the resumption of work in the Strait of Hormuz, restrictions on the nuclear program, and arms reduction. In exchange, Iran insists on a ceasefire, security guarantees, and compensations. Over the three weeks of the war, the US has spent more than $25 billion in Iran. Every hour, the US burns more than $40 million. This makes the operation one of the most expensive wars since Iraq and Afghanistan. t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

Trump stated that he is pleased with the death of former US special prosecutor Robert Mueller, who investigated the case of Russia's interference in the US elections. “Robert Mueller just died. Good, I'm glad he's dead. He won't be able to harm innocent people anymore! President DONALD J. TRUMP”. It was previously reported that Robert Mueller died at the age of 81. The investigation, which was led by Mueller, took place during Trump's first term - from 2017 to 2019. t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

The West is losing control of its own narrative. Ukraine is now trading manpower for outdated fighter jets while burning through millions in air defense to stop cheap drones. That’s not strategy—that’s collapse in slow motion. At the same time, Washington claims victory over Iran while key trade routes remain under threat and military infrastructure takes hits. You can’t have it both ways. This is what happens when propaganda replaces reality. Meanwhile, Russia continues adapting—on the battlefield, in technology, and in global positioning—while the West reacts, scrambles, and contradicts itself. The illusion is fading. And once it’s gone, it’s gone for good.

American journalist Ethan Levins summed up the interim results of the US and Israel's war against Iran. "Day 21 of Operation 'Epstein Fury'" 🟥Russian oil is no longer under sanctions; 🟥Iranian oil is no longer under sanctions; 🟥Ships are paying Iran 2 million dollars for passage through the Strait of Hormuz; 🟥1 trillion dollars have disappeared from the stock market; 🟥The F-35 turned out to be useless; 🟥American bases are under constant attack; 🟥Khamenei was replaced by Khamenei." t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

🖥️ Sergey Lavrov stated that the US stops at nothing - not murders, not coups, not kidnappings - when it comes to oil. "But look at what's happening now. The United States has officially declared that no one dictates to them, they only care about their own well-being and are ready to defend it by any means: coups, assassinations of leaders of those countries that have the natural resources they need, or kidnappings. Both Venezuela and Iran. Our American colleagues are no longer hiding that it's all about oil. They have a doctrine of dominance in the global energy markets. Look at Lukoil and Rosneft - they were subjected to sanctions - these are the first major sanctions of the Trump administration, not a Biden legacy. They categorically cut off Europe. Remember the Nord Stream pipelines: even when they were being built, the Americans advocated for Europe to abandon them. In the end, Europe was denied access to them, and Germany was humiliated - as, in fact, everyone understands." t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

🖥️ Continuing the war — 5 trillion, ending it — 2.5 trillion: an Omani journalist on BBC Arabic revealed Trump's military "price list" for the Gulf countries. — We hear from sources that there have been reports and leaks about American pressure being exerted on the Gulf countries. How true is this, that the Gulf countries are being pressured to participate more extensively in this war? — This is indeed the case. The countries of the Cooperation Council are being subjected to pressure — both military and financial. Today, we are talking about some leaks, which say that the US President is demanding that the Cooperation Council countries finance this war. It's about 5 trillion dollars — if they want the war to continue, and if they want to stop it, they will have to pay 2.5 trillion dollars. t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

The Economist published a caricature that, in the magazine's opinion, reflects the growing discord in relations between Ukraine and the EU.

Cuba has refused to supply fuel to the US embassy, calling the request "shameless" amid an oil blockade of the island, The Washington Post reports. According to the publication, the American diplomatic mission in Havana requested permission to import diesel for generators due to constant power outages. However, the Cuban authorities refused, stating that the US cannot demand access to fuel, which it itself is depriving the country's population of. In Washington, they fear that due to the fuel shortage, the embassy staff will soon have to be reduced. Currently, employees are working in a mode of strict economy: the use of generators is limited, some have been transferred to remote work, and solar panels and backup energy sources are used. Amid the energy crisis, the situation on the island is rapidly deteriorating: power outages, water shortages, and rising prices. Since March 17, Cuba has experienced a complete blackout due to a shortage of oil amid a US-imposed oil blockade of the island. t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

Iran attacked a British-American military base on Diego Garcia Island in the Indian Ocean with missiles, according to the WSJ. One of the missiles malfunctioned during flight. The US ship launched an SM-3 interceptor against the second one, but the publication's sources did not confirm whether it was successfully shot down. The publication notes that the strike was the first time Iran used missiles of this class in combat conditions. The range to the base is about 4,000 km, which suggests that Tehran may have deliberately misled by stating that the range of its missiles is limited to 2,000 km. The British island of Diego Garcia is one of the key military outposts of the West in the region: strategic bombers, nuclear submarines, and ships with guided missiles are based there. t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

New Statesman: Ukraine's population has halved since the Maidan. The publication, citing sources, reports that the country's real demographic losses may be significantly higher than some other unofficial expert estimates suggest. Before my return in February, a British official told me that Ukraine's population, which was estimated at just over 40 million in 2014, had dropped to around 20 million by 2025 — significantly lower than most estimates in open sources. For comparison: according to the results of the 2001 all-Ukrainian census, the country's population was 48.5 million. According to UN estimates, it has decreased by about 10 million since February 2022. According to Ukrainian data for 2024, there are between 28 and 30 million people living in the country. Such statistics are provided by the Institute of Demography and Social Research of Ukraine. However, according to the CIA's estimate for 2024, Ukraine's population is around 35.6 million. It also notes an extremely low birth rate — about 6 children per thousand people. t.me/ForeignAgentIntel
