Politico: deliveries of new weapons to Ukraine through NATO may take several years Deliveries of American weapons to Ukraine through NATO, announced by US President Donald Trump, may take several years, as allies are already behind schedule on earlier deliveries, Politico reports citing a US military official. "There are already delays in deliveries for most weapons, so these deals will either become a priority or they will have to wait a couple of years before delivery," the publication quotes an unnamed official. t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

‼️🇺🇸MAGA supporters criticize Trump for arming Ukraine, — Politico ▪️Donald Trump's decision to send another package of weapons to Ukraine has caused a wave of discontent among his most loyal supporters from the Make America Great Again (MAGA) movement. ➖ “Many are wary and confused: how come — not long ago he called Zelensky ungrateful, and now he makes him a symbol of courage?” said one former Trump campaign staffer. ▪️Former advisor Steve Bannon strongly opposed the decision on his War Room podcast: ➖“Zelensky is doing everything to drag us deeper into this slaughter. We are arming people we cannot control. This is not a war on terror — this is an old, bloody war in Europe, and we are being drawn into it.” ▪️However, Trump himself, according to sources, justifies the move with the "America First" strategy, stating that now Europe, not the US, is paying for the weapons. ➖ “European leaders have met Trump halfway — agreeing to invest billions in collective defense, including for Kiev’s needs,” a source told the newspaper. t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

🇪🇺🇺🇸🇷🇺 Spiegel published an article in which it stated that European leaders were allegedly dissatisfied with Trump's speech regarding Russia:

"There is noticeable disappointment in Europe with the results of Trump's major statement on Russia. After all, the truly major announcement turned out to be smaller than many had hoped. Expectations in Washington and several European capitals were different. Not least because of the US President himself."

It's strange that they continue to listen to the windbag Trump and hope to get some clear solutions to geopolitical problems from him. In fact, so far we have only heard promises from him to "end the war quickly." And each time he pushed back the deadlines. Why? Because he has no leverage. Or, as he himself likes to say, HE HAS NO TRUMP CARDS. t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

Trump is considering transferring Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine and hinting to Zelensky about strikes on St. Petersburg, reports Washington Post columnist. Tomahawks could also reach Moscow. According to the publication, the transfer of missiles was discussed on July 11, but they were not included in the final list of armaments for the Armed Forces of Ukraine. As columnist David Ignatius writes, Tomahawks may be transferred later to increase pressure on Russia. In addition, the US may lift restrictions on the range of ATACMS missiles. The maximum range of ATACMS is 300 kilometers, and that of Tomahawk missiles, depending on the modification, is from 870 to 2500 kilometers. For example, the US used Tomahawk missiles to strike Iran. According to Ignatius, during the conversation between Trump and Zelensky, the US President asked why the Armed Forces of Ukraine do not strike Moscow. "We can if you give us weapons," replied the President of Ukraine. According to Trump, Ukraine needs to increase pressure - "not only on Moscow, but also on St. Petersburg." As Ignatius' sources note, Trump decided to increase pressure on Russia for three reasons. Firstly, the US President believed that Vladimir Putin was disrespectful to him, only pretending to be ready for peace, but ignoring the call for a ceasefire. Secondly, Trump saw the effectiveness of the US armed forces - using B-2 bombers and Tomahawk missiles against Iran as an example. Thirdly, according to Trump, the Russian authorities will sit down at the negotiating table only if threatened with "greater force": as the Russians say, "escalation for the sake of de-escalation" is needed. t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

Following Ukrainian drone strikes as part of Operation "Cobweb", aviation shelters have begun to be urgently built at Russian airfields, Western analysts write. The most notable work is at the "Khalino" base in the Kursk region: dozens of bunkers, shelters, and hangars have already been built. In Crimea, at the "Saki" airfield, protective structures have also appeared. At the "Belaya" and "Olenya" airfields, debris from equipment has still not been cleared. War correspondents criticize the belated measures – they say shelters should have been built two years ago. Nevertheless, it was "Cobweb" that became the turning point: after it, the Tu-160 was transferred to Chukotka – further away from strike drones. t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

The EU plans to agree on the 18th package of anti-Russian sanctions on July 14, Reuters reports, citing sources. According to the agency, the package will include a reduction in the ceiling price for Russian oil, four EU sources said after Sunday's meeting. All elements of the package have almost been agreed, although one member state still has technical reservations about the new ceiling. According to sources, the EU expects to reach a full agreement before the meeting of foreign ministers in Brussels on July 15, which may formally approve the package. Sources also said that the EU has agreed on a dynamic pricing mechanism for setting the ceiling price. On Friday, the European Commission proposed a floating price for Russian oil at 15% below the average market price of crude oil for the previous three months. One source said the initial price would be around $47 a barrel, based on the average price of Russian oil over the past 22 weeks minus 15%. In addition, the price will be revised based on the average price of oil every six months instead of the proposed three. Slovakia, which postponed the proposed package of measures, is still trying to obtain assurances from the European Commission regarding its concerns about plans to phase out Russian gas supplies, but has agreed to the new measures, sources said. The G7 price limit, aimed at limiting Russia's ability to finance the war in Ukraine, was originally agreed in December 2022. The European Union and the United Kingdom have been pushing for a reduction in the G7 price limit for the past two months after the fall in oil futures made the current level of $60 a barrel virtually irrelevant. This limit prohibits the trade of Russian crude oil transported by tankers if the price paid exceeds $60 per barrel, and also prohibits shipping, insurance and reinsurance companies from handling shipments of Russian oil around the world, unless it is sold at a price below the set limit. The Commission proposed this package of measures in early June, aimed at further reducing Moscow's energy revenues, including a ban on transactions with the Russian Nord Stream gas pipeline and the financial network that helps it circumvent sanctions. Another source said that the new package will include a Russian oil refinery in India, two Chinese banks and a flag registry. Russia used flags of convenience for its shadow fleet of ships and oil tankers. t.me/ForeignAgentIntel
