The Trump administration continues to try to realign the US away from the West and towards Russia. Last year it rolled out the red carpet in Alaska; now it's at Putin's pound shop Davos to show off pictures of a ballroom. It's trying to enhance Russia's status at the cost of the US's.

‼️ First cluster for Ukraine and Moldova to be opened on 15 June

NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte: Russia is increasingly desperate. Russia's losses are substantial - over 30,000 per month. This means losing more men in one month than the Soviet Union did in 10 years in Afghanistan in the 1980s. Absolutely staggering numbers.

He's a master of distracting us from crimes he's already committed by continuously committing new crimes. 5 months until the Midterms. #AccountabilityIsComing

Is it really worse than usual?

What about: you will fight for nothing while trying to kill your brothers and you will die within a few hours anyway.

So smart

🇳🇴🇺🇦 Zelensky: Spoke with the Prime Minister of Norway. We discussed supplies for air defense: Norway is ready to help. Thank you! We are also working so that Europe has its own anti-ballistic capabilities. We are also preparing for meetings in the near future. Thank you, Norway!

Cool night = 200 drones!

"Europe does not need to own every supply chain behind every weapon it buys.

🔥 Reports indicate the Russian guided-missile corvette Boyky has been damaged in Kronstadt, near Putin’s hometown of St. Petersburg. If confirmed, Ukraine has struck a warship tasked with protecting Russia’s Baltic approaches hundreds of kilometres from the front.

L'Ukraine rend coup pour coup, tout en se refusant de tuer femmes et enfants innocents, mais en frappant chaque jour les infrastructures de l'économie russe et du complexe militaro-industriel pour accélérer la chute du régime totalitaire de poutine. Un jour, les russes diront "merci" à l'Ukraine.

It is a crime!

Once again, the rule holds true: the weakest link in Ukraine's defense architecture is its American ally.

Horrible

Good point!

Except 1 old stupid lunatic and his team...

A classic diversionary tactic. It means the Russians have run out of arguments. They’re backed into a corner.
