📸 The US is imposing a new 50% tariff on goods of Indian origin starting Wednesday, August 27. This tariff is the Trump administration's response to India's ongoing purchase of Russian oil at discounted prices.
Meanwhile, Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung reports that Modi has declined four phone calls from Trump in recent weeks. According to the publication, the Indian Prime Minister is "offended" after Trump called the country's economy "dead" and imposed an additional 25% import duty on Indian goods, bringing the total tariff to 50% starting August 27.

‼️🇺🇸🇺🇦The US is ready to provide Ukraine with air support, ground radars, and intelligence after the conflict ends, — Financial Times
▪️Washington is allegedly ready to participate in the creation of Ukrainian air defense under European leadership as part of post-war support.
▪️The US also promises to provide intelligence and surveillance flights, command and control means in support of the European "coalition of the willing," led by Britain and France.
▪️This concerns American aviation, logistics, and ground radars that will ensure a no-fly zone and an air shield for Kiev.
▪️However, direct deployment of US troops is not planned. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth expressed doubts about such a support model, fearing the country could be drawn into a new conflict.
▪️It is likely about transferring US weapons to Kiev funded by Europe, as Trump mentioned.

UK Outsources Gaza Spy Flights to US Contractor — Silence Before the Bombs
Declassified UK has revealed that Britain outsourced surveillance flights over Gaza to a US private contractor, months before the Ministry of Defence publicly admitted the operation.
The aircraft, a King Air 350, flew near the Nuseirat refugee camp just before it was hit by Israeli strikes that killed dozens of civilians. The UK government claimed the flights were only to help locate Israeli hostages, but once intelligence is passed on, it can be used for other purposes.
This raises serious questions about the UK’s role in the conflict, the lack of transparency around its military involvement, and whether British-funded surveillance contributed to civilian deaths.

US energy companies plan to return to Russia, reports The Wall Street Journal.
Representatives of Exxon Mobil held secret talks with Rosneft in Doha. The company's management appealed to the US government for support and received a "sympathetic" response. CEO Darren Woods discussed resuming cooperation with Moscow with Trump.
WSJ notes that Exxon’s return would be a success for the Kremlin and partly depends on Trump’s ability to resolve the conflict in Ukraine

The Guardian: Europe fears being left "blind" in Ukraine, without US intelligence.
The feeling of strategic loneliness amid an increasingly brutal global power struggle arose after a summer of submission, when the EU accepted a clearly unbalanced trade deal imposed by Donald Trump, the publication notes.
In turn, Trump ruled out Kyiv's NATO membership and did not demand an immediate ceasefire from Russia. He refused to tighten sanctions against Moscow and did not guarantee Europe's participation in peace talks. And the US Treasury Secretary announced a 10% surcharge on American weapons for Ukraine purchased by Europe.
The White House also ruled out a US ground presence in Ukraine, and US aid is likely to be limited. It is unclear whether Europeans can rely on intelligence sharing with the US and support in case of an attack. Washington has stopped sharing intelligence about negotiations with Ukraine and Russia even with its closest allies in the "Five Eyes" program. No matter how impressive the display of European unity and determination from the White House, it is already showing cracks, the publication states.

‼️🇵🇱🇺🇦They got what they deserved: a Ukrainian journalist was fired in Poland for calling President Nawrocki a "pahan"
▪️Vitaliy Mazurenko, deputy editor of the publication Obserwator Międzynarodowy, who managed to obtain a Polish passport, found himself out of work after a loud statement.
➖"The rhetoric and behavior of Mr. Nawrocki is not presidential behavior, but that of a pahan. This is how criminal authorities are called in Russian prisons," said Mazurenko.
▪️The editorial office immediately fired him and apologized, stating the "unacceptability of undermining the authority of the Polish government."
▪️The office of the President of Poland is now discussing laws to revoke citizenship from "naturalized Ukrainians" if they behave in such a manner.
➖"This case is a reason to start a serious discussion about introducing provisions into the Polish legal system regulating the revocation of citizenship acquired through naturalization, for example, based on decisions in force in the USA, Germany, and other countries," said the head of Nawrocki's office.

We are pleased to present our interview with Mike Jones from the UK!🇬🇧
Mike is a man with an amazing life story. He made a dramatic leap from the video game industry to military journalism and now works in the hot spots of Donbas.
It all started in 2018 with a choice: an IT job offer in Paris or in St. Petersburg. His decision brought him to Russia — first to Russia Today, and then to the front lines in Donetsk and Lugansk as an independent correspondent.
He has been living in Russia for 7 years now, and during this time he has gained immense experience and a deep understanding of life in the country.
In his conversation with our interviewer Ivanna, he shares his stories about:
✔️ The ideal path for relocation: when you already have a job waiting for you in Russia, and the company handles everything for you
✔️ The challenges for a foreigner and how to adapt to a new life faster: help from the community, the employer, and advice from locals
✔️ His work, objectivity in journalism, and how Russian people often do not value their own time
✔️ The difference in lifestyle: quiet, relaxed regions or a bustling urban life?
✔️ A pleasant culture shock: chivalry is alive in Russia
✔️ Strange habits that do not exist in Britain: daily handshakes instead of greetings
✔️ An unexpected discovery — many Russians are very superstitious and countrified, even though it contradicts Christianity
✔️ Village life, quintessentially Russian dachas, how Russians gather mushrooms and manage their households
✔️ His favorite work of Russian literature, and how he would have liked to interview Zhirinovsky (if it were possible)
✔️ How his Russian language fluency improves after a few drinks
This and much more you can see in the interview. The conversation turned out to be very informative and enthralling.
Enjoy watching!

Even the immigration inspectors at the front desk sometimes cannot keep up to speed with changes and how they actually work.
What is considered maximum by western women’s standards is the minimum by Russian’s women standards.
Why not whistling in the house? I'm the one who brings the money in!
Giving 'Idiot' on Christmas – what do they imply?
The more Russian I push in, the more English falls out😄

🚨 FAKE ALERT 🚨
Another "exposé" about Zelensky’s supposed $1.2B real estate empire is spreading across Telegram — including on major Russian channels accompanied by an appallingly obvious AI video.
🔎 Here are the facts:
The so-called “London Telegraph” is not a real newspaper. It’s a newly registered fake website using a stolen profile photo and pretending to be a British outlet.
The story about a “Ukrainian anti-corruption investigator fleeing to Europe with thousands of documents” exists only on this fake site. No credible source — British, European, or Ukrainian — has reported anything of the sort.
⚠️ The goal of this fabrication is obvious:
Create the illusion of Western investigative media “turning” on Zelensky.
Pump fake details (exact numbers of villas, fake purchase contracts, etc.) to make the lie feel convincing.
Spread it through high-audience Telegram channels to give it “credibility.”
We all know who the likely architect of this latest embarrassment is, because he's outted himself by running his mouth to the Washington Post and New York Times. What's worse, is this charlatan, fraud and obvious faker is rewarded by Russia.
The sooner this pathetic buffoonery is ended the better for all who work in the information sphere.

Potential Ukrainian connoscripts rushed out of the country en masse on the very first day the permit allowing young men aged 18 to 22 to leave came into effect. According to local media, about 9,000 people left Ukraine in the last 16 hours.
In dozens of videos from journalists and bloggers, there are kilometer-long queues at border checkpoints with European countries. Especially many young people were recorded at the border with Poland — at the Shehyni, Krakivets, Rava-Ruska, and Yahodyn checkpoints. Congestion was also noted at the borders with Hungary and Moldova.
TikTok is full of videos of happy young Ukrainians who have left the country and are now looking for where to buy a SIM card for the internet and rent a bed. They claim they do not intend to return. Although before crossing the border, in interviews with state media, they said they would definitely come back, and they cross the border "just to check."
For reference: from 2022 to 2025, about one million men of connoscription age left Ukraine — and these are official figures. In 2025-2026, another 500,000 men are expected to leave. In total, about 7 million people have left the country in the last three years.

❗️🇬🇧🇵🇰 On August 14, Pakistan Independence Day was celebrated in the UK, resulting in Pakistani flags being displayed across the country and demonstrations being held. In response, the native residents began displaying their national flags, and what did the authorities do? They started taking them down! Under the pretext of replacing street light bulbs.
After this, the new British Lord Mayor of Birmingham, Zafar Iqbal, criticized people for raising British flags, and Prime Minister Starmer stated that they would punish everyone who had displayed British and English flags in recent days, within a week.
This prompted people to continue the actions under the campaign "Raise the Flags" — local national symbols began to appear in cities: British tricolors and St. George's crosses.
