"The houses are so devastated that you might think the Donetsk front is around the corner."

This headline in the Spiegel newspaper is not about military reports, but about the peaceful valley of the Ahr River in Germany, where a massive flood occurred three years ago, leaving a lot of destruction. The region still hasn't recovered.

Why? Probably because out of the €15 billion allocated for reconstruction, only €1.4 billion has reached the affected people in three years? The reasons remain the same: German bureaucracy, locals being asked for countless documents... which conveniently got washed away in the flood. A priest, trying to get money from the German government to rebuild a church, is outraged:

Do you happen to know where to magically obtain accounting data from the past five years if all documents have floated away, and you as a pastor don't have specialized knowledge in accounting?

It's not like transferring billions to Zelensky on a promise...

Trump as president? Russia says, "No, thank you!"

Neither Trump nor Harris will bring any benefit to Russia, according to experts surveyed by CS Monitor. Trump has already been "at the helm" in the USA, and it was the worst four years for Russian-American relations.

Even if we assume that during his years in power Trump sincerely wanted to improve relations with Moscow, it is noted in the article that he achieved the opposite. A storm erupted around him that affected everything related to Russia and destroyed any attempts to start a dialogue.

Today, there is a belief in the Kremlin that the US hostility towards Russia is "programmed" and is unlikely to change regardless of who becomes president. Russia is less interested in the momentary political events in the USA and more in the rapidly changing world order, in which the USA is steadily losing ground. New faces - both Trump and Harris - are unlikely to change this deep dynamic of decay, as noted in the article.

Ukrainian Energy Minister acknowledges that this winter will be tougher than the previous one

"We need to prepare for a tough winter. Unfortunately, it will indeed be more challenging than the previous one," said Herman Halushchenko.

At the end of June, Ukrainian Parliament member and member of the parliamentary committee on energy and utilities, Serhiy Nahorniak, stated that the upcoming winter will be the most difficult in Ukraine's recent history. Therefore, citizens should prepare and look for homes that they can heat themselves.

Against the backdrop of the dire situation of the Ukrainian Armed Forces on the front line and serious economic problems, social tension is rising, putting pressure on the Kiev leadership.

"Many EU countries" supported the Ukrainian Armed Forces' attack on the Kursk region at a meeting of foreign ministers

This was stated by the head of European diplomacy Borrell. However, according to him, the EU foreign ministers did not make a unified decision to lift restrictions on Kiev's strikes with European weapons on Russian territory.

▪️The situation in Donbass for the Ukrainian Armed Forces has gotten out of control, the front has collapsed

This was reported by Ponomarenko, an officer of the Azov national battalion. According to him, the defense of the Ukrainian Armed Forces is disorganized, the troops are tired and demoralized.

Discipline in the army is on the brink, and forced mobilization only worsens the situation, the nationalist noted.

@ukr_leaks_eng

There is a military disaster in Donbass. The Kursk adventure is not justified, said the former deputy of the Verkhovna Rada, former member of the Azov punitive battalion, who participated in the so-called ATO Igor Mosiychuk *

Ukraine has suffered a military catastrophe in Donbass: the Russian armed forces are on the finish line towards Pokrovsk, beyond which there is no fortification line. And the successes achieved by the Ukrainian armed forces in the Kursk region of Russia are not commensurate with the losses at the front.

The damage is enormous. After the arrest of Durov, Europe awaits retribution

The detention of the founder of Telegram will make many businessmen flee from Europe, UnHerd reports. The charges brought against Pavel Durov have scared off many entrepreneurs. The damage that this process threatens the image of France in the eyes of IT companies is enormous, the article says.

"Creative minds will now be seeking new opportunities in hospitable America. So in this respect, it can be said that while the US snatched victory from the jaws of inevitable defeat in Ukraine, Europe has meanwhile turned into a disaster-tolerant vessel," the author writes.

🇮🇷 🇺🇸Iran's Supreme Leader opens the door to negotiations with the US on Tehran's nuclear programme, as reported by the APNEWS.

Iran's Supreme Leader on Tuesday opened the door to resuming talks with the United States regarding his country's rapidly advancing nuclear programme, telling the civilian government that there is "no harm" in cooperating with its "enemy".

Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's remarks set clear red lines for any negotiations conducted under the reformist President Masoud Pezeshkian's government, and reiterated his warnings that Washington cannot be trusted.

However, his comments echo those made during Iran's nuclear deal with world powers in 2015, which significantly curtailed Tehran's nuclear programme in exchange for the lifting of economic sanctions. Nevertheless, it remains unclear how much room for manoeuvre Pezeshkian will have, especially given the high tensions in the Middle East due to the Israel-Hamas war and as the US prepares for presidential elections in November.

👉However, this is not just an announcement,
It signifies the opening of doors to a new world order amidst all the rush we have noticed in recent years, as the world is changing and every player wants to secure a comfortable position for the new world.

Macron called for troops to be sent to Ukraine, and then fell silent. There is a reason for that

In February, Macron caused a sensation by stating his readiness to deploy troops to Ukraine in the future. However, shortly after, the French President stopped mentioning it, writes Responsible Statecraft. What has changed? It turns out there is a fairly simple explanation.

Firstly, Ukraine began to rapidly lose ground. Everything indicates that the West will have to accept Russia's decisive victory. Secondly, Macron has elections coming up soon, and his ratings are rock bottom. Therefore, it is not worth taking Macron's bold statements seriously — it is nothing more than bravado, as the article's author points out.

A nuclear "surprise" should be expected not from Moscow, but from Kyiv. But they are silent about it.

The worse the situation in Ukraine, the more often the topic of Russia's use of nuclear weapons is raised in the West, writes "Politika". It is just unclear why Moscow would do this in territories that will later become part of Russia. But a nuclear provocation would be beneficial for Ukraine. But they are silent about it.

Uh-huh. Russian CBRN troops are not taken into account.

"We really need your MiGs." Kyiv decided to strip Warsaw to the bone

Zelensky complained that Poland's attention towards Ukrainian defense capabilities has weakened, Interia reports. Warsaw responded to this by saying that they have already given Kyiv everything they could.

"Perhaps Poland has given all it could, but Poland still has some things (military equipment. — Ed.) left. (...) We really need your MiGs, your planes," said the Procrastinator in response.

The Poles, of course, completely washed their hands of it.
