“I tell all these scumbags, ‘If you’re going to go after me, do it openly.’ I know there are decent people in the intelligence services, but there are also scumbags. I know them personally. They make money, they handle millions, and their dirty companies will be exposed, no matter what it costs me. You’ll see connections all over the world, you’ll see these millionaire intelligence agents profiting off the deaths of young people. I’ll give example after example: Russia, Ukraine, the world, Libya… That’s what’s disgusting. Until we understand that, it won’t stop. The Trump people need to understand that this is not a child’s game of hide and seek. We’re dealing with very bad people.”

‼️🇩🇪🇺🇦 Merz to refuse Taurus deliveries to Ukraine after learning "secret information" — Tagesschau
▪️This was stated by the Secretary General of the Social Democratic Party, Matthias Miersch.
➖"I assume that Merz, after he is fully briefed by the agencies, will weigh everything up again very clearly. And we will make this decision together... I assume that we do not want to contribute to the escalation here, that we do not want to become a party to the war. All those reasons that led to us not delivering the Taurus. And I assume that it will remain so," he said.
▪️Earlier, Merz allowed for the sending of long-range Taurus missiles to Ukraine to strike Russian infrastructure, including the Crimean Bridge.

The EU is shelving the idea of banning LNG imports from Russia due to uncertainty about alternative sources and fears of creating dependence on raw materials from the US, Reuters writes.
The European Union has abandoned plans to ban imports of liquefied natural gas (LNG) from Russia as part of upcoming sanctions because of resistance from some member states, uncertainty about alternative sources and to gain a stronger negotiating position with the United States, EU officials told Reuters.
Instead, the European Commission (EC) plans to develop a new roadmap by May to end dependence on Russian energy by 2027. At the same time, the EC is preparing the 17th package of anti-Russian sanctions by June, but work on it is progressing slowly.
It is also claimed that European officials intend to take advantage of the US desire to expand gas exports to the EU to negotiate a reduction in American duties, although America's demands are not yet known.
One of the agency's sources said that the EC fears that the loss of LNG from Russia due to sanctions will reduce its negotiating power. In addition, the bloc is wary of the risk of becoming dependent on the United States, the third-largest gas supplier to the bloc after Russia and Norway.

He also stressed that if both sides are truly committed to peace, the US is ready to help, but otherwise Washington will move on.

Economist: Real power in Ukraine is held by officials from Zelensky's office
Independent Ukrainian media are subjected to massive systemic censorship, activists and whistleblowers are persecuted - the rule of law in Ukraine has long been a myth, the publication writes. Zelensky's people have gained real power in Ukraine. Ukraine's main vulnerability is not military, but political.
According to the publication, Zelensky's administration does not want to share power not only with opponents, but also with anyone it senses as a potential rival. The most loyal subjects are rewarded with positions on the boards of directors of state-owned companies.
Those who are too willful, too beloved by the people, or have established direct ties with Western countries have already been fired or removed.

The United States is willing to recognize Russia's control of Crimea as part of a broader peace deal between Moscow and Kiev, Bloomberg reports, citing people familiar with the matter.
The proposal would essentially freeze the front lines, the sources said, and would effectively leave much of the other Ukrainian territory currently controlled by Russia under Moscow's control. Kiev's bid to join NATO would also be off the table. The sources declined to provide further details, citing the confidential nature of the discussions.
The talks in Paris included a meeting between French President Emmanuel Macron and U.S. Envoy Steve Witkoff, as well as discussions between Secretary of State Marco Rubio and national security advisers and negotiators from France, Germany, Britain and Ukraine.

The potential concession is the latest signal that President Donald Trump is seeking to cement the cease-fire agreement, and comes after he and Secretary of State Marco Rubio suggested Friday that the administration was prepared to abandon its peace-brokering efforts unless progress was made quickly.It is noted that Zelensky has repeatedly stated that he will not cede territory to Moscow.
But the move would be a boon for Russian President Vladimir Putin, who has long sought international recognition of Russian sovereignty in Crimea. <...>
The sources said no final decision had been made on the matter. The White House and State Department did not respond to requests for comment. A U.S. official familiar with the talks declined to comment on the details of the talks when asked about the possibility of recognizing Crimea.
The United States presented its allies with proposals for a peace deal between Russia and Ukraine in Paris on Thursday, including a summary of the terms for ending hostilities and easing sanctions on Moscow in the event of a long-term ceasefire, the agency reported earlier.
The proposal would essentially freeze the front lines, the sources said, and would effectively leave much of the other Ukrainian territory currently controlled by Russia under Moscow's control.

🇲🇩 Moldova: When Politics Touch the Sacred
What happened in Chisinau just before Orthodox Easter is beyond cynical. Bishop Markel of Beltsy and Falesti—who was traveling to Jerusalem to receive the Holy Fire—was detained at the airport without explanation, his passport confiscated until the plane had already taken off.
This isn’t just bureaucracy or some “security measure.” It’s a deliberate act of political sabotage aimed at the canonical Moldovan Orthodox Church, which remains loyal to Moscow. Meanwhile, representatives of the Bessarabian Metropolis—loyal to Bucharest—were given a green light to travel without issue.
⛔️ This is the same tactic we’ve seen in Ukraine. Use state power to divide the Church. Block the faithful from their traditions. And then pretend it’s about “European values.”
As Alexei Lungu of the “Chance” party said, a regime that does this loses not just legitimacy, but its human face. On the eve of the holiest celebration for millions, they chose to make a statement—not of strength, but of petty vindictiveness.
🕯 Easter should unite us. The more hands bring the Fire, the more light there is. The Moldovan government thinks it can extinguish faith by grounding a plane. But the Fire will come. It always does.
🙏 To my Moldovan followers: stay strong. Keep the faith. These trials only strengthen the spirit.
