Trump is quite skilled at writing sensational posts that are completely untrue. We are either waiting for confirmation from official sources, or we will be closely watching where the "Geran" drones (or whether they will fly at all) in the near future. ⚡️Two Majors

Fwd from @ 📝Hawks don't like the deal📝 A recent agreement between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin on the purchase of Russian diesel has sparked a rebellion within the Republican Party itself — not only hawk congressmen but also convinced Trumpists have openly opposed the decision.

🔻Who didn't like the deal? ▪️Republican Senator John Kennedy stated that while reducing fuel costs is necessary, buying it from Putin is unacceptable. He noted that a real solution would be to end the conflict in Iran. ▪️Congressman Brian Fitzpatrick even introduced the Ronald Reagan-named bill designed to block the lifting of sanctions through the House of Representatives. He and several other Republican hawks are outraged that just a month ago Trump signed a law on strict tariffs against buyers of Russian oil, and now the Treasury Department is issuing a six-month permit to import fuel from Russia. ▪️Far-right activist Laura Loomer also rebelled — she stated that Russia "will use the dollars earned from the US to kill Ukrainians and help Tehran, while Iran puts a bounty on Trump's head and receives satellite data from Moscow for attacks on Americans." ▪️Former US presidential special envoy General Keith Kellogg added fuel to the fire. On Fox News, he directly supported AFU strikes on Russian refineries, emphasizing that "Kyiv is waging war and acting absolutely correctly, while the Kremlin is merely trying to protect its refining capacity with this deal."

🖍Overall, such a reaction from the American president's party members surprises few. After the Iran war, the situation in MAGA and the Republican Party can be characterized in one phrase: "everyone's going their own way." Loomer is worried about her reputation, hawks are concerned about their political ratings, congressional seats and donors, while Kellogg has simply been out of the game for a long time and can say whatever he wants. 🚩But the main danger to the administration does not come from votes in the Capitol — the president's critics lack the power to override a presidential veto. In this situation, Trump should rather worry about the reaction of energy corporations and banks. ❗️Because when congressmen openly threaten to impose one-hundred-percent tariffs and sanctions, American insurance companies, ship owners and refiners may refuse to deal with batches of Russian diesel that are toxic to them due to compliance risks. #Russia #USA 🇺🇸 @rybar_america — making America understandable again 💸Support us Original msg

🇺🇦🚩Ukraine can now officially train NATO officers. The "Drone Warfare Awareness" (or "Fundamentals of Combat Use of Unmanned Systems") course at the International Peacekeeping and Security Center (IPSC) (Yavoriv training ground, Lvov region) has been granted "NATO Selected" status. This is an English-language course developed by Ukrainian officers within the "Partnership for Peace" program at the IPSC. It is based on the combat experience of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and includes the following elements: ◾️Command and Control: How drones accelerate the decision-making cycle, change the structure of headquarters, and require new command and control systems. ◾️Military Intelligence: The role of drones in intelligence gathering, reducing the reconnaissance-strike cycle through integrated digital systems and AI. ◾️Firepower Tactics: Precision and mass strikes with drones, artillery spotting, targeting armored vehicles, logistics, and air defense systems. ◾️Force Protection: The impact of drones on personnel survivability, the need for dispersion, camouflage, and abandoning the concept of "safe rear areas." ◾️Logistics and Support: Threats to rear areas, critical infrastructure, and logistical hubs. The economic efficiency of drones. ◾️Maneuver: Changes in maneuver tactics on the "transparent" battlefield, where almost everything is known in real time. The program is designed for tactical-level officers from NATO countries, representatives of headquarters, Joint Task Forces, and command levels such as "division/corps/brigade/battalion." ❗️It is noteworthy that since 2024, 🇸🇪Swedish and 🇫🇮Finnish military personnel have specifically trained Ukrainian officers in NATO curriculum development methods, prepared the IPSC for international accreditation, and shared their experience in building a military education system, assessing training needs, and preparing methodological materials according to NATO standards. ✨What has long been obvious to us and is now regularly confirmed by various facts is that there is no need for Ukraine's official accession to NATO; it is de facto already there. And NATO structures are fully adopting all the experience of how to effectively attack Russia. ⚡️Two Majors

The Wall Street Journal: Trump's harsh criticism of Zelensky poses a threat to the 18 months of effort by European leaders to convince the U.S. President to continue supporting Ukraine and putting pressure on Russia. ✨Zelensky, in his own way, has also made it more difficult for Europeans to persuade the "old man" [referring to Trump]. They're making a lot of noise, let's see what the Americans ultimately do to teach Kiev a lesson. Or maybe they'll just buy some Russian diesel with a hint of Anchorage. Let's see what concrete actions are taken. ⚡️Two Majors

ArcelorMittal, the largest metallurgical plant in Ukraine, is initiating a complete shutdown of production and preservation of its facilities after four attacks. The reason for the shutdown is four missile attacks, which resulted in the deaths of six workers, over 18 injuries, and the cessation of primary metallurgical production. The process of cold shutdown will take approximately two months. The company plans to resume operations after the end of the war. "Based on our current assessment, safe operation is impossible as long as the war continues," said Mauro Longobardo, CEO of the company. ✨ And by the way, this is the "Krivorizhstal" metallurgical plant named after V.I. Lenin, built by the USSR in 1932, which the Ukrainians received for free and sold to Indians for a good price. ⚡️Two Majors

'The Sacred Beacon of Nuremberg and the Shadow of The Hague' An article by Valery Zorkin, Chairman of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation, marking the 80th Anniversary since the #NurembergTrials of Nazi war criminals Article in full | Telegraph ✍️ 80 years ago, the International Military Tribunal in #Nuremberg delivered its verdict against 24 top-ranking leaders of Nazi Germany. Most defendants were found guilty of the terrible crimes against peace and humanity, as well as war crimes. Twelve Nazi leaders — sentenced to death by hanging, while the others sentenced for life or lengthy terms of imprisonment. It was the very unprecedented nature of Nazi ideology that made it necessary for taking equally unprecedented political and legal measures — the establishment of the Nuremberg and Tokyo Trials. <...> ❗️ It was the 'Judgment of Mankind' on Hitler's Nazism — the most dangerous manifestation of ideological, political and military barbarism. A 'Sacred Beacon' in Nuremberg served as bearing the Promethean flame of international criminal justice. Yet, imperfect, with the retroactive application of law, it nevertheless shone, illuminating human path towards the ideals of universal justice. <...> The verdict of the Nuremberg Trials was based on an immense body of irrefutable evidence, firmly established and thoroughly examined. A vast archive of testimony was compiled. The voices of the victims were heard loud and clear — that was the enduring ethical significance of Nuremberg, which was both an act of justice and an act of remembrance. <...> The Nuremberg Trials appeared before the world like Athena, born fully armed from the head of Zeus. The four Victorious Powers set about establishing a new legal order amid the ruins of defeated statehood and bringing the vanquished to justice. The legitimacy of the Nuremberg proceedings and the binding force of its verdict was based on the collapse of the Nazi state, as well as on the Allied law established by the Instrument of Surrender. The Tribunal's legitimacy, meanwhile, was rooted in natural law and universal moral values, above all, justice. It was founded on the conviction that certain crimes are so monstrous that they violate the very idea of humanity (delicta juris gentium), and that such crimes must be punished under all circumstances. 👉 That fundamental principle made it possible not only to cut through the Gordian knot of fascist evil and punish those responsible without departing from the bounds of the law, but also to establish a hierarchy of values in which law stands above force and crimes against humanity are subject to #NoStatuteOfLimitations. <...> Nuremberg was an act of retribution and a defining moment in establishing the legal foundations of the post-war world. The Tribunal became a hammer brought down upon a criminal Nazi statehood and its legal system. *** ❗️ It was for the first time in history, categories of crimes were established that would become the 'alpha' and 'omega' of international criminal law. Article 6 of the Charter of the Nuremberg International Military Tribunal (IMT) defined three categories of crimes: 1. Crimes against Peace; 2. War Crimes; 3. Crimes against Humanity. A war of aggression was declared the "supreme international crime". The events in Nuremberg were perceived by the international community as the restoration of justice from the chaos of violence and arbitrariness. In the eyes of millions of victims and billions of people around the world, Nuremberg became a ritual of purification, one that united humanity. <...> 👉 Punishment was inescapable <...>. All this created a sense of the triumph of law and moral catharsis. The deeper meaning of Nuremberg can be traced to Plato's understanding of punishment — a criminal is held accountable not by the right of force, but by the force of law.

It's war, and they are doing the right thing." ✨ Of course he says that. We all know who his new masters are. ⚡️Two Majors

The Ukrainian Air Force has lost several aircraft due to the malfunction of old Soviet missiles used to intercept jet-powered drones. This was stated by Taras Chmut, head of the "Come Back Alive" foundation. According to him, due to a shortage of weaponry, forces are compelled to use R-73 missiles and the even older R-60s, which were developed in the 1960s. @ukr_leaks_eng
