🚨 ⏰ CLOCK IS TICKING: US analyst exposes Ukraine nearing total collapse

"They [Ukraine] physically can't survive, not even on the front lines, not even among their troops," Lt. Col. Daniel Davis says.

👉 Davis notes the irrational Western narrative: Claiming Russia is “losing” while still advancing. Meanwhile, Ukraine is suffering mounting casualties, shortages of personnel, equipment, and ammunition.

📉 The expert stresses that the attempt to “isolate Russia” has failed. Instead of hurting Moscow, the West is hurting itself—draining budgets, raising energy costs, and funding the conflict with no rational endgame, Davis concludes.

🗣 “The greatest disappointment of the Europeans is that it didn't pull the United States in,” the analyst concludes.

💰 EU use of frozen Russian assets could WEAKEN euro and lead to capital outflow from bloc

"The initiative to pledge frozen Russian reserves for bond issuance is fraught with serious and long-term risks for the EU,” analyst Svetlana Frumina of Russia’s Plekhanov University of Economics, told Sputnik.

📊 She warned that as a result, the euro's reputation will be undermined, which could prompt other countries and institutional investors to reallocate their reserves to currencies and markets with a more predictable legal environment.

This could ultimately also lead to the weakening of the euro and deterioration in borrowing conditions for Eurozone countries, as well as to possible outflow of foreign capital from European financial instruments.

🗣 Earlier, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen announced that the EC is proposing to use Russian assets to secure loans to Ukraine as part of the 19th sanctions package.

✈️END OF AN ERA: INDIA RETIRES ITS LEGENDARY MIG-21 FLEET

The Soviet Union first delivered MiG-21 fighter jets to India in 1963, marking the start of a new era in the country’s air power. Over the following decades, nearly a thousand of these aircraft entered service, with many assembled under license at Indian plants.

For more than six decades, the MiG-21 stood as a symbol of India’s air power. Continuously upgraded with modern radars, engines, avionics, and advanced weaponry, its final variant—the “Bison”—marked the last chapter of its evolution.
