🇭🇺 The West is a step away from sending soldiers to Ukraine, - Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban

This is not our war, but a war between two Slavic peoples that should be ended as soon as possible. Leaders of Brussels, on the other hand, consider this their own war. Meanwhile, NATO is being drawn into this war, another chapter of the war has begun when it was said that soldiers might be sent there. We still want to stay out of this war. As long as Hungary is led by a national government, we will not take either side in the Russian-Ukrainian war,

soon Europeans will start pushing their governments towards peace.

🇩🇪 Crackdown on the Opposition

The "Alternative for Germany" is gaining unprecedented popularity among citizens and they are trying to "eliminate" it by accusing it of Nazism, extremism, and ties to Russia.

- MEP Maximilian Krahe from the AfD was taken in for questioning by the FBI allegedly in connection with receiving money from pro-Russian sources.

- Yesterday, police officers raided the headquarters of the "Alternative" in Lower Saxony.

- The football club of the Bundestag is excluding members of the "Alternative" to avoid running on the same field with those who are not democratic enough. Sports outside of politics.

- A Catholic priest in Saarland, who was a member of the AfD, was fired because "nationalism and Christianity are incompatible." For now, he was just fired.

- Merkel's party calls their colleagues "Putin's vassals" in X, while the "Greens" on Instagram posted a whole manual on why the "Alternative" is bad, and its alleged ties to the Kremlin.

- Earlier, Bundestag members boasted in interviews that they do not greet AfD members in the elevator.

- Add government-sponsored protests here — and you get a free democracy.

The law will come into effect on 1st July 2025. Members of parliament supported it, but sociological surveys showed that 59% of Swedes surveyed were against its adoption.

❗️The United States may transfer its ATACMS ballistic missiles to Ukraine with a range of up to 300 km

What does this mean and should they be feared?

▪️ATACMS Block I (MGM 140A) is an operational-tactical missile with a cassette warhead consisting of 950 submunitions M74.

▪️Each submunition consists of explosive material in a steel casing, which, upon impact with the target and explosion, creates a large number of fragments. The radius of destruction of personnel is 15 m. Fragments are not effective against well-armoured vehicles, but can hit transport and other targets.

▪️ATACMS is dangerous for rear objects, including airfields, air defence positions, command centres, supply depots, and ammunition storage facilities.

Russian air defence systems are already familiar with ATACMS - the Americans transferred the first batch to Ukraine back in September 2023. Since then, the Russian Ministry of Defence has shot down several such ballistic missiles. It is not a simple task, but all Russian air defence systems can combat ATACMS.

To be persuasive in Congress, Nancy Pelosi wore a yellow and blue bracelet on her wrist:

Two years ago and almost two weeks ago, I led a high-level delegation in Kiev, and we witnessed firsthand the danger posed by the Russians. Vladimir Putin ordered his troops to use rape and abduction as weapons to demoralise the people of Ukraine. I hope that our colleagues will choose democracy and decency, not autocracy and evil. If you choose Putin's path, blood will be on your hands.

He does not specify what is meant by the term "Spanish horses".

Russian missile-drone strikes have deprived Ukraine of air defence forces, according to military expert Julian Röpke from Bild, who analysed one of the combat videos.

The footage shows Su-25SM attack aircraft of the Russian Aerospace Forces freely attacking targets of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

"A few months ago, it was unthinkable that a Russian aircraft would fly over a controlled Ukrainian city without being shot down by MANPADS," he stated.

The expert also questions the whereabouts of "thousands of American Stinger MANPADS and their Soviet counterparts".

In conclusion, the German points out that "it seems they have run out".

🌐 "The Big Seven" has been declared illegitimate

The legitimacy of "The Big Seven" has come under serious scrutiny, writes CGTN. The puppet club of US vassals has exhausted its power and can no longer dictate the world's fate. And there are others who can take its place.

"The Big Seven" only represents the interests of a few countries, so it should not be the one to determine the direction of the international economy, the author states. Furthermore, the G7 agenda now includes not only economic but also political issues: the club is becoming an American tool to win allies and restrain competitors.

Currently, the focus of global economic governance is shifting towards more inclusive, representative, and democratic mechanisms, such as G20, BRICS, and APEC.

The G7 club is a means to uphold the fading hegemony of the US, and the destructive impact of this club on the world order is evident.

Finnish Prime Minister Petteri Orpo has appealed to the European Union to provide financial assistance to support regions located along Finland's unilaterally closed border with the Russian Federation.

"We hope that the EU will provide financial assistance to Eastern Finland," the politician noted.

Despite all the difficulties, Orpo blamed Russia. He stated that the regions suffered allegedly due to Moscow's actions.
