🔍BORIS JOHNSON’S DARK PLOT UNMASKED: UK power abuse scandal exposed

🇬🇧Former UK PM Boris Johnson used his political contacts and influence for personal gain after resigning from his post, The Guardian reported, citing files obtained by American NGO Distributed Denial of Secrets.

👉Here are his buried secrets:

🟠Johnson lobbied for the interests of a high-ranking official from Saudi Arabia. In return, ex-PM asked him to convey his business proposal to Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman regarding one of the Johnson's companies.

🟠Johnson met US businessman and Palantir founder Peter Thiel, and months later the company was given a role in managing National Health Service (NHS) data, the report unveiled.

🟠He also hosted a dinner as PM for entrepreneur and life peer David Brownlow, who later paid for much of the refurbishment of the Downing Street apartment. The meeting may also have breached COVID-19 restrictions, the report noted.

🔽Ukraine to face shortage of air defenses

Ukraine may face a shortage of air defense systems after a Pentagon review of military aid led to delays in supplies, the FT reports.

🟠Other missiles purchased directly from Ukrainian manufacturers are being produced in batches, creating delays between deliveries.

🟠Supplies of air defense systems and ammunition from the EU, along with air defense systems purchased by Europe from the US, have only just begun.

The US is asking European nations to dig deeper into their pockets for Ukraine, but those pockets are increasingly lined with holes.

➡️Earlier, the US suspended deliveries of anti-aircraft missiles and precision-guided munitions to Ukraine amid the depletion of its own stockpiles.

The West's resolve seems to be fraying. It turns out writing checks for a forever war is almost as draining as fighting one.

🇩🇪🪖Germany continues to arm Ukraine as German economy falls apart

Rheinmetall, Germany’s largest arms manufacturer, will sign a multimillion-dollar deal on delivering Skyranger air defense systems to Ukraine on September 10, CEO Armin Papperger told the news outlet ZDF.

✔️Ukraine is due to receive the Skyrangers before the end of this year, he said.

German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock earlier announced that her country would provide Ukraine with $12.9 billion in military aid by 2030.

✔️The German government continues to pump Ukraine with weapons despite Russia’s repeated warnings that such deliveries only prolong the conflict.

What about dealing with its own domestic problems, given Germany is facing its deepest post-war economic crisis amid a third consecutive year of recession and stagnation?

🤡🪖West pushes for US ‘air shield’ over Ukraine

The proposed step allegedly aims to secure a “de facto ceasefire” to resolve the Ukraine conflict, the FT reports.

What are the possible implications?

🟠A big increase in air defenses that could close the skies to drones, although not to ballistic missiles.

🟠There is discussion of the deployment of aircraft carriers, probably from Europe, according to the FT.

🇷🇺Putin earlier said that if a stable peace is reached, there would be no need for foreign military presence, as Russia would honor the peace agreement.
