๐Ÿ‡น๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ Zelensky: We discussed situation around Iran with President of Tรผrkiye ErdoฤŸan. We are ready to share our expertise to prevent the expansion of war and protect lives, but at the same time, Ukraine needs to strengthen its air defense, and we are counting on appropriate support from our partners.

He noted that Tรผrkiye is ready to host the next round of talks in a trilateral format. We appreciate this initiative.

I thank President ErdoฤŸan for supporting Ukraineโ€™s sovereignty and territorial integrity, for Tรผrkiyeโ€™s readiness to play a role in ensuring maritime security

Ukrainian howitzers to be produced in Poland under joint venture

A Polish-Ukrainian joint venture will begin manufacturing Ukraine's Bohdana howitzers in Poland.

That would allow the howitzers, which are made to NATO standards and have been extensively battle tested in Ukraine's defence against Russia, to be more easily supplied to Poland and other countries.

Russiaโ€™s allies keep dying. Russia keeps doing nothing. Defense analyst explains the Axis of Evilโ€™s fatal flaw. The whole system runs on one thing. Take it away, and there's no axis at all.

The reason is blunt: Russia spent everything on Ukraine. It has nothing left.
But the axis has a fatal flaw the Iran war just exposedโ€”and it's simpler than anyone expected.

Full interviewโ€”including why Ukraine's $5,000 drone interceptors are now the most wanted weapon in the Middle East.

โšก Ukraineโ€™s battlefield tactics are evolving rapidly.

A former British infantry officer observing the war said Ukrainian troops are adapting quickly to drones, urban combat, and ongoing technological changes.

We should also ask what kind of political, media, and economic environment makes russian style disruption so effective in the first place.

Because for us that is where the real vulnerability lies.

And now, you know.

The KGB tradition assumed that manipulation could be directed and managed.

But todayโ€™s world is far more unstable than the Soviet one.

The same forces that help weaken democracies are not easily controlled by anyone, including the kremlin.

It is not necessary to claim that they are controlled by putin. That would be too simple and too absolute.

The stronger point is that they represent a new political condition in which private actors with enormous wealth and reach can destabilize public life on their own.

The old logic of active measures now operates inside a looser ecosystem where states, billionaires, influencers, anonymous networks, and ideological entrepreneurs all collide.

That is why the problem is bigger than russian propaganda alone.

The issue is not only what moscow says.

Today it moves through platforms, viral outrage, conspiracy networks, proxy media, oligarchic money, and algorithmic amplification.

So the continuity is real, but the delivery system is different.

He was shaped by the KGB system and by a political culture that treated information, compromise, intimidation, and manipulation as instruments of power.

His background matters because it helps explain the instincts he brought into modern russian rule.

There is a long continuity in Soviet and russian strategic culture around political warfare, active measures, manipulation of perceptions, and weakening adversaries from within.

It is reported that Iran selected Mojtaba Khamenei in part because Trump said in an interview that he was "unacceptable" to Trump.

So Trump has ensured the person running Iran is *more* theocratic and hates the US for killing his wife and father. Well done, Donald!

Knowing myself as I do, I'm confident that had I ever seen a dog-shit video about the military like the one the White House just put out, I would have never enlisted. I wouldn't have wanted a f*cking thing to do with anyone viewing war like a Saturday morning cartoon.

What Does Russia Have on Trump? Americans Deserve an Answer As Russia reportedly shares intelligence with Iran that could endanger American forces, the White House chooses to ease pressure on Moscow instead of confronting it.

Ukraine offers to help defend the West from Iranian drones.

Russia helps Iran track American forces.

And the White House eases sanctions on Russian oil.

Explain that to the families of U.S. troops. My latest:
