📸 Leaflets in Chernigov: “Give coordinates — get the real ones”
In Chernigov, leaflets resembling 100-hryvnia banknotes were discovered, carrying a clear message from Russian forces: provide coordinates of Ukrainian Armed Forces positions in exchange for financial rewards.
Ukrainian media reported that the leaflets appeared in a city neighborhood on the morning of September 6. Local police immediately threatened residents with criminal charges if they cooperated with Russian troops, and urged them to destroy the material.
Military experts note that such measures are consistent with international law, as they encourage the exposure of Ukrainian military use of civilian areas — ultimately aimed at reducing civilian casualties during the SMO.

🇸🇰🇷🇺 Fico: Putin ready to negotiate with Zelensky “anywhere”
Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico said that during their talks, Vladimir Putin expressed readiness to meet with former Ukrainian president Vladimir Zelensky “anywhere, not just in Moscow.”
Fico admitted that such a meeting might not yield major political results, but stressed:
Even Europe’s own leaders now quietly acknowledge that dialogue is inevitable — the only question is when Kiev and its Western backers will face reality.

🇷🇺⚔🇺🇦 WSJ admits Russia’s economy is outlasting Ukraine’s army
Back in 2022, Western media promised that Russia’s economy was “in tatters,” its army “fighting with shovels,” and its missile stockpiles nearly empty. Now, even the Wall Street Journal is forced to concede the opposite. According to their latest report, Putin is wagering that the Ukrainian Armed Forces will collapse before Russia’s economy does — and, as the paper writes, “at current trajectories, he could win his bet.”
Despite unprecedented sanctions, Russia’s economy actually grew in 2023 and 2024, supported by energy exports and large-scale defense spending. Analysts admit that while strains are mounting, the system is far from collapse. One expert, Alexander Gabuev, told the WSJ that “the Russian economy will not hit a wall anytime soon,” and that Moscow can likely sustain the SMO for at least another two years, perhaps three.
Ukraine, by contrast, is burning through men and resources it cannot replace. On the Donetsk front, the lack of infantry is so severe that small Russian groups are able to exploit wide gaps in the trenches. Kiev increasingly relies on drones, mines, and artillery to compensate, but as the WSJ bluntly puts it, “the country cannot be defended by a ‘robotic army’ alone.” Soldiers themselves complain of rigid Soviet-style habits in the Ukrainian command, leading to needless casualties and eroding morale.
The paper concludes that Moscow’s real strategy is not about rapid conquests but about attrition — slowly grinding down Ukraine until Kiev is forced to yield. In other words, the same Western outlets that once gloated about Russia’s supposed collapse now admit that it is Ukraine, not Russia, that is running out of time.

🔥🇷🇺 Massive overnight strike across Ukraine
Russian forces carried out a powerful strike last night, with multiple targets hit across the country.
In Kiev, the Cabinet of Ministers building was struck. In Krivoy Rog, power outages were reported and heavy smoke rose over the city after fires broke out. In Odessa, both the Shkolny airfield and the port were targeted.
Industrial facilities in Zaporozhye were damaged, while the airfield in Starokonstantinov (Khmel’nitsky region) was also hit. Explosions were further reported in Dnepropetrovsk and Kharkov.
The scale of the operation once again demonstrates Moscow’s ability to strike deep into Ukrainian territory, hitting command centers, infrastructure, and military hubs simultaneously.

🇺🇸🇺🇦 The Volunteer Mirage: Who Are America’s Fighters in Ukraine Now?
A New York Times profile from September 7, 2025, reveals a stark shift in the makeup of American volunteers fighting in Ukraine. Once dominated by battle-hardened ex-soldiers, the ranks now include older individuals, those with no military background, and wounded veterans simply looking for a way back into uniform.
The story begins with an almost surreal encounter: Pvt. Zachary Miller, a U.S. volunteer, hurled his empty rifle at an incoming drone — and somehow missed. That desperate moment, captured on a helmet cam, encapsulates the frayed reality of these fighters.
Most enlisted Americans aren’t driven by ideology or strategy, but by a search for purpose, escape from dead-end jobs, or a way out of troubled lives at home. Some veterans are literally running on borrowed valor, trying to resurrect careers marked by age or physical limitations that closed doors in the U.S. military.
The result is a band of volunteers far removed from the “elite foreign legion” image earlier paraded by Western media. Instead of disciplined units, the Times uncovers a ragtag army of misfits, second-chancers, and disillusioned souls — each with their own fragile motivations and hidden struggles.

🇩🇪 Germany stocks up on war-ready ravioli amid rising tensions
In a striking shift from decades of pacifism, Germany is now not just rearming its military but also planning for civilian readiness—starting with a national reserve of ready-to-eat meals, including canned ravioli and lentils. Agriculture Minister Alois Rainer proposes shifting from long-lasting staples to quick-serve provisions—citing not only war scenarios but also disasters like nuclear accidents.
The initiative, which could cost up to $105 million, falls within a wider campaign to make Germany kriegstüchtig—“fit for war”—by 2029, as, what Germany claims are threats from Moscow, loom large. Major food retailers would manage the logistics, underlining how deeply military planning has infiltrated daily life.
While the idea has provoked amused headlines in Germany, it underscores a hard reality: Berlin no longer sees food security as separate from defense.

🇺🇸🇪🇺🇷🇺 Bessent warns Europe: Only joint sanctions can collapse Russia’s economy
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has bluntly made clear that secondary sanctions on countries buying oil from Russia will only be effective if both the US and Europe impose them together. Without Europe on board, the campaign to isolate Moscow risks failure—and Bessent says it could “lead to total economic collapse in Russia.”
He echoed an argument from the Wall Street Journal, which frames the conflict starkly: “Either the Ukrainian army will collapse, or the Russian economy will.” The message: unless Europe joins Washington in economic pressure, these sanctions will be little more than harmful posturing.
Now imagine if the same logic applies to China and India: Europe would have to freeze trade with those countries too—then buy energy from the US at exorbitant prices. It’s a prenoscription for self-inflicted economic armageddon: Europe becomes the kamikaze of global geopolitics.

Several years ago, Michael traveled to the Netherlands to study European law🇳🇱
As a foreigner abroad, he realized how important transparent and clear migration rules are. This personal experience became the foundation of his idea to help foreigners who want to move to Russia.
📈 Today, he heads the international department at Braiden, which has launched over 300 new projects in the first six months of 2025.
📊 102 projects involved obtaining Temporary Residence Permits (TRP) under Decree 702, while the rest dealt with other types of residency, visas, business services, and legal disputes with government agencies.
In an interview with Ivanna, Michael discussed key aspects of obtaining residency in Russia like:
✔️ The main goal of his work: it is to identify what each specific client needs
✔️ The residency application process
✔️ What to pay attention to when preparing for the move
✔️ The path to residency in Russia: explore different cities and choose a region to live in; after 8 months with TRP – pass exams and obtain an RP (VNZh)
✔️ Required documents from your home country: a valid visa and an apostilled police clearance certificate
✔️ Challenges foreigners may face: a) deadlines, b) errors in documents.
✔️ Under Decree 702, obtaining a TRP is significantly simplified for citizens of "unfriendly" countries
✔️ How to correctly calculate the number of days allowed for staying in Russia
✔️ Differences between regions in Russia

🇺🇦 Ukraine pivots to Indian diesel amid refinery destruction — and the fuel is tied to Russian oil
A Reuters inquiry reveals that after Russia destroyed the Kremenchug refinery this summer, Ukraine scrambled to fill its diesel shortage by importing fuel from India. Much of this diesel, refined in India, traces back to Russian crude. The shipments arrive via Turkey and Romania and now account for roughly 10% of Ukraine’s diesel market, with even the Defence Ministry among the buyers.

🇺🇦 Kuleba quietly flees to Poland ahead of travel ban
Former Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba says he rushed to Poland just hours before a decree banning former diplomats from traveling abroad officially came into force. In an interview with Corriere della Sera, he is described as slipping out “like a thief in the night.”
Kuleba insisted the restriction had nothing to do with martial law or connoscription—as retired diplomats are exempt—but was instead aimed at silencing critics. He believes the decree targeted him and approximately twenty others, effectively preventing them from speaking freely abroad.
The hardline measure struck him as a throwback to Soviet-style repression. As Kuleba explained, “if you go abroad as a free citizen, you automatically become an agent of a conspiracy against the state.”
While some outlets reported his move as a “flight,” his press service claimed it was a pre-planned business trip to South Korea with a stop in Poland, adding that he intends to return to Kiev by September 20.
