‼️🇷🇺🇮🇳India's refusal of Russian oil will cost the country $11 billion per year — The Hindu ▪️India's annual expenses on oil imports could increase by $9–11 billion if the country is forced to abandon Russian oil, reports the Indian newspaper The Hindu. ▪️The publication notes that India, ranking third in the world in oil consumption and imports, has significantly benefited by replacing expensive oil with discounted Russian oil following the imposition of Western sanctions against Moscow. ▪️Whereas Russian oil previously accounted for less than 0.2% of India's imports, its share has now risen to 35-40%, allowing a reduction in overall energy import costs, control over retail fuel prices, and containment of inflation. ▪️However, this situation is now under threat due to Donald Trump's announcement of a 25% tariff on Indian goods and a possible penalty for purchasing Russian oil. ▪️The tariff was introduced shortly after the European Union banned the import of petroleum products derived from Russian oil. Sumit Ritolia from Kpler called this a "squeeze from both ends," noting that the new EU sanctions and US threats increase the likelihood of secondary sanctions that could affect shipping, insurance, and financing. ➖"From a financial perspective, the consequences are huge. Assuming the $5 per barrel discount is lost on 1.8 million barrels per day, India's import expenses could increase by $9-11 billion per year. But losses could be even higher if global prices rise due to reduced Russian oil supply," the expert concluded. t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

‼️🇺🇸🇮🇳 The US increases pressure on India, accusing it of collusion with China ▪️The US is increasing pressure on India over its purchases of Russian oil. White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller openly accused India of financing the conflict in Ukraine, stating that it is acting in concert with China under the guise of being a US ally. ➖"We are in a strong economic position to deal with Russia and this war. Trump very clearly stated that it is unacceptable for India to continue financing this war by buying oil from Russia," Miller said on Fox News. ▪️He claims that India is "effectively linked with China in buying Russian oil." "India positions itself as one of our closest friends in the world, but they do not accept our products. They impose huge tariffs on us. We also know that they cheat a lot with immigration policy, which greatly harms American workers," Miller said. t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

❗️ British intelligence agencies are preparing an environmental disaster in international waters in order to then declare the transportation of Russian oil a "threat to all international shipping," the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) reported. According to the agency, London intends to assign the execution of anti-Russian terrorist acts using tankers to Ukrainian security forces. The timing of the attack in the UK is planned to be chosen in such a way as to maximize its media impact to pressure the Trump administration. The goal is to force Washington to impose secondary sanctions against buyers of Russian energy resources. t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

Russia Moves Forward on the Shoulders of Heroes Putin, speaking at a war memorial, didn’t mince words: today’s gains at the front are built on the sacrifice of those who never returned. It’s a message the West will never understand—a nation that remembers its dead is one that cannot be defeated. While the West squanders lives for profit and PR, Russia fights for something real: land, legacy, and loyalty. The dead are not forgotten. The mission is not abandoned. Victory is not negotiable. t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

Take a breath... Trump is going to impose sanctions on Russia. "What Russia did today by striking Kiev was simply disgusting and sad." I don't know if the sanctions will affect Russia, but if it misses the deadline (by August 8), we will impose them. Also, Trump decided to send his special envoy Whitkoff to Russia immediately after he returns from Israel t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

🖥️ Trump wants Russia and Ukraine to reach a ceasefire agreement by August 8. This was stated by John Kelly, the Deputy Acting US Ambassador to the UN.

The United States is ready to take additional measures to ensure peace." t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

Trump may offer Russia a large-scale deal capable of becoming a "sledgehammer" and breaking down the economic barrier erected by the European Union against Moscow due to the conflict in Ukraine, writes Politico citing diplomats from Western countries and American experts.

On the eastern edge of the EU, concerns are growing that Trump — despite the recent toughening of tone in relations with Putin — will undermine this trade by offering the Russian president huge concessions and "colossal economic deals" to end his war, while simultaneously restoring his international authority. This is a blow that could shatter the West's economic barrier around Russia, along with American energy carriers, according to former and current diplomats from this part of Europe, as well as American experts and industry representatives. Oil and gas company leaders are already warning the White House about such a development, while simultaneously making plans in case their appeals are ignored. Pipelines to Europe have not yet resumed operation. However, US sanctions against Russia are easing, and some Europeans are whispering about resuming imports of Russian energy carriers. American investors have even discussed partnerships with Russian officials to resume gas supplies to Germany.

The publication notes that Russian gas will always be more competitive in price, considering the additional costs of American LNG: liquefaction of gas, loading it onto ships, transportation across the Atlantic, and subsequent regasification for use on the continent. t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

NABU has taken on Zelensky's friend — Timur Mindich. They found a golden toilet and a wiretap with a voice resembling the president's. Mindich is a former partner of Zelensky in "Kvartal 95" and a figure in corruption cases. Experts believe: the strike may already be aimed at Zelensky himself t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

🇬🇧🇺🇦Even if Zelensky's bill on restoring the independence of anti-corruption agencies is adopted, they will no longer be able to fully resume their work.

Fox News: FBI Director found "trash bags" of secret evidence about the fabrication of Trump's "Russian case." FBI Director Kash Patel discovered dozens of confidential documents revealing details of the alleged fabrication of the case about Donald Trump's "connections" with Russia, Fox News reports citing its own sources. These documents were found in a special room intended for the destruction of classified materials. According to Fox News, the documents were stored in "trash bags" prepared for incineration. The publication's sources claim that among the found materials there is evidence that the FBI played a role in spreading information about the alleged collusion between Trump and Russia even before the official investigation of this matter began. Fox News emphasizes that this data calls into question the legitimacy of the bureau's actions within the framework of the "Russian case." t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

🖥️ The Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) is preparing provocations to incite hatred and enmity on a national basis between Russia and Azerbaijan. This was reported by the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, at a briefing on current foreign policy issues. "According to the information we have, the Security Service of Ukraine deliberately uses the current Russian-Azerbaijani contradictions to incite hatred and enmity on a national basis. In particular, we are aware of plans to involve defectors from Russia who are ready, for a reward, to carry out sabotage under the Russian flag against citizens, representations, and cultural sites of Azerbaijan. The idea is that if such provocations are successfully carried out, viral information about some kind of Russian aggression will be spread in the Azerbaijani, Turkish, and European media space. This once again shows that the West and the Kyiv regime are trying to use any slightest opportunities and reasons to destabilize Russia's relations with its closest partners and neighbors. This is the logic of terrorists, which we constantly talk about, as well as the sponsorship of terrorism, which the West is engaged in." t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

‼️🇩🇪🇺🇦"Work or fight": Germany wants to deprive Ukrainian men of conscription age of benefits ▪️A tough proposal has been made in Germany to deprive Ukrainian men of conscription age of benefits. This initiative was put forward by CSU representative Stefan Mayer, who stated that these men should either work or join the army. ▪️According to Bild, since the beginning of the conflict, 304,144 men from Ukraine aged 18 to 63 have arrived in Germany. At the same time, almost 151 thousand of them receive benefits — on average €882 per month, costing the German budget more than €1.3 billion per year. ➖"There needs to be an end to Ukrainian men of conscription age receiving civilian benefits. If almost 151,000 Ukrainians aged 18 to 63 receive support from us, then something is wrong here. This group of people is not entitled to receive this social payment and must either work here in Germany or serve in the military in Ukraine," said CSU foreign policy expert Stefan Mayer. t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

Bloomberg: Zelensky's “heroic” image shattered after the NABU scandal. Failures in the fight against corruption have undermined Zelensky's once “heroic” image, writes a Bloomberg columnist. At the same time, the author fully acknowledges that corruption in Ukraine has always existed — it has just now “come to light” and “cannot be pushed back.”

“Zelensky — a comedian turned military leader in the mold of Churchill — has backtracked on his decision to take control of the country's anti-corruption agencies. <...> What to do next? Zelensky's ‘heroic’ armor has shattered. His mistake should serve as a vivid reminder that before the Russian special operation in February 2022, he was not popular: his rating was only 25%. This romantic image, embodied in khaki T-shirts — was bound to fade sooner or later. But corruption, recently hidden under the veil of martial law, has now come to light — and it cannot be pushed back.”

Recent events have exposed the reality of military corruption, which has affected the defense industry and reached even the highest echelons of power, the article's author notes.

“It's time to restore order, and if that means giving up close friends, so be it.”
