🇵🇱 Poland unveiled a plan for new defenses along its borders with Russia and Belarus. Poland and other European NATO members are warning that Russia could launch an attack. An image showed a wall, barbed wire, anti-tank obstacles and vegetation.
🇪🇺 Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk also said in March that Europe was in a "pre-war era" and needed to prepare urgently.
🇱🇻 Other countries near Russia are also increasing their border defenses. Baltic countries also plan big fortifications on their borders with Russia and Belarus, including bunkers. Six NATO countries — Poland, Finland, Norway, and the three Baltic states — are also reportedly planning a "drone wall" to defend against Russia.
🇧🇾 Poland already has a border wall between it and Belarus, built by its previous government last year to prevent migration.

🔶️ The factory will soon turn out about 30,000 steel shells every month for the 155-millimeter howitzers that have become crucial to Kyiv’s war effort.
🔶️ Ukraine fired between 4,000 and 7,000 such shells daily for several months in 2023, according to NATO’s secretary-general, before infighting among House Republicans held up further funding for Pentagon arms shipments. Large shipments of American artillery ammunition resumed in April after Congress passed an aid package that included $61 billion to Ukraine.
🔶️ To keep Ukraine’s artillery crews supplied, the Pentagon set a production target last year of 100,000 shells per month by the end of 2025. Factories in Scranton and Wilkes-Barre, Pa., together make about 36,000 shells per month. The new General Dynamics facility in Mesquite, Texas, will make 30,000 each month once it reaches its full capacity.
🔶️ The 100,000-per-month goal represents a nearly tenfold increase in production from a few years ago.

Tether, the operator of the largest stablecoin, said it had record net profit of $4.52 billion in the first quarter, largely driven by interest earned from its holdings of US Treasuries and appreciation in Bitcoin and gold.
At least two top metals producers, both of which are unsanctioned, have begun to use Tether Holdings Ltd.’s stablecoin and some other cryptocurrencies to settle some of their cross-border transactions with mostly Chinese clients and suppliers, top executives at the companies said, declining to be identified as the information isn’t public.

🇺🇸🗳️📉 - Two-thirds of Americans worried about political violence after Election Day: Poll
🔗 The Hill
Two-thirds of American adults said they are concerned “extremists” will commit acts of violence following the 2024 election if they are unhappy with the results, according to a poll released Thursday.
In a Reuters/Ipsos poll, conducted May 7-14, 68 percent of U.S. adults said they either strongly agree (33 percent) or somewhat agree (35 percent) with the statement, “I am concerned that extremists will commit acts of violence after the election if they are unhappy with the election outcome.”
This sentiment was especially prevalent among Democrats — 83 percent of whom said they either strongly (47 percent) or somewhat (36 percent) agree with concerns about political violence. Only 8 percent said they disagree, and 9 percent said they don’t know.
The concern still seemed to transcend party lines — with 65 percent of Republicans agreeing strongly (25 percent) or somewhat (40 percent) with the concerns, and with 69 percent of independents agreeing strongly (34 percent) or somewhat (36 percent) with the concerns.
A recent poll from Bloomberg/Morning Consult asked voters in seven swing states about the likelihood of political violence during the election and its aftermath. Nearly half (49 percent) said they expected violence.

"🇨🇳 China refused to participate in the peace conference on Ukraine, which will be held in Switzerland
Chinese authorities have called participation in the upcoming peace summit in Switzerland “difficult.” The PRC justified its refusal by the fact that a delegation from Russia was not invited to the conference.
“The nature of the meeting does not meet China’s demands and the expectations of the international community. This makes it difficult for China to participate,” Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning said today.
She said a peace conference should include "equal participation of all parties and fair discussion of all peace plans."
“Otherwise, it will be difficult for the conference to play a significant role in restoring peace,” Mao Ning added.
The Russian delegation was not invited to the meeting in Lucerne, which is scheduled to take place on June 15 and 16. At the same time, Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky called on representatives of China, as well as US President Joe Biden, to take part in it."
