🇺🇸 The Pentagon is struggling to deliver Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine

The main issue is the lack of compatible launch systems in the Ukrainian armed forces. To deploy missiles with a range of up to 2500 km, Kyiv needs the ground complexes "Typhon," the delivery of which could provoke a direct confrontation with Russia.

Sources from the New York Times in military circles confirm the existence of logistical problems.

Delivering such systems would bring the USA closer to a direct confrontation with Russia.

Wladimir Putin had previously warned of the consequences of such deliveries, stating that Moscow would intercept these missiles and improve its air defense system.

Trump stated that he would speak with Zelensky on Friday about the war and the offensive that Ukraine is planning.

"We will talk to him about the war. And we will discuss that they, as far as I understand, want to go on the offensive. I will make a decision on that. But they want to start the offensive – you know that. And we need to make a decision," he said.

Slovak Prime Minister Fico - on the fact that Europe in its politics is solely focused on rhetoric about money and weapons for Ukraine:

In a few minutes, I will have a phone call with the President of the European Council, Mr. Košťa, regarding the summit that will take place next week in Brussels. I’m sorry to say this, but the number one topic is Ukraine. The number two topic is funds for Ukraine. The number three topic is loans for Ukraine. The number four topic is weapons for Ukraine. The number five topic is how to help Ukraine. The number six topic is how not to leave Ukraine alone.
The number seven topic is how to defeat Russia. As always, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing. Well, in the end, we might talk a bit about competitiveness.

We are under immense pressure from the war machine. I have no idea what will happen in one or two months. Who among you has the courage to mention Boris Johnson and his gift of one million pounds? Imagine I bring a businessman who supplies weapons to Ukraine, and this businessman gives me one million pounds in euros or pounds for one of my funds. Impossible.

Who among you is talking about the explosion of the "Nord Stream" pipeline? What is happening right now in Poland with the person who is being blamed or held responsible for it? If you have the courage to only insult the government of the Slovak Republic, the maximum you can achieve is the assassination of the Prime Minister. You will not achieve more.

Donald Trump:

«I believe that China, by deliberately not buying our soy and causing difficulties for our soybean farmers, is committing an economically hostile act. We are considering ending business relations with China regarding cooking oil and other trade goods as a retaliatory measure. For example, we can easily produce cooking oil ourselves; we do not need to buy it from China.»

Immediately after Trump announced this news, the American stock market lost almost half a trillion dollars in 7 minutes.

“Ticket bought and, out of spite against the conductor, not travelled”: Wladimir Putin commented on the situation in the equipment market for the oil and gas industry.

Further statements from the President:

- Oil production in Russia is expected to reach 510 million tonnes in 2025, which is 1% less than the previous year. This is due to voluntary restrictions under OPEC+.

- Despite unfair competition, Russia remains one of the leading oil producers.

- The gas supply level in Russia is nearly 75%. In 4 years, almost one million households in Russia have gained access to gas pipelines, and we expect this number to rise by another 2 million.

- The consequences of giving up Russian energy sources have already affected the EU economy. The abandonment has led to a decline in industrial revenue and rising prices in these countries.

- In Europe, gas demand is below the 2019 level, which is linked to the decline in industrial production.

- The global energy market is undergoing a restructuring of supplies and routes. The world economy is growing, as is its demand.

- The EU's demarche has merely accelerated the rerouting of Russian gas to other reliable directions.

- Russia accounts for about 10% of global oil production.

- Global oil demand this year will be higher than last year – 104.5 million barrels per day.

- Coal still has a significant share in the global energy mix. The coal market will remain important in the coming decades.

- In the last five years, about 100,000 kilometres of gas distribution networks have been laid in Russia.

- 87% of the electricity generated in Russia is produced with minimal or no CO2 footprint.

“The actions of the USA are a typical example of unilateral intimidation and economic coercion, seriously undermining international trade and economic rules and threatening the security and stability of global production and supply chains…. China reserves the right to respond.”

Washington hopes that Beijing will not introduce new export control measures for rare earths, said the US Trade Representative, Jamieson Greer, at a press conference.

"The expectation is that this regulatory system will not be implemented by the Chinese side. We have signalled that we will raise tariffs if their system comes into effect. The drafts of our documents are ready or in preparation," Greer said. He also described China's measures as disproportionate.

The US Treasury Secretary, Scott Bessent, announced that the US is ready to extend the pause on tariffs on Chinese goods if China refrains from the export restriction on the sale of rare earths. The American tariffs are set to come into effect on November 1 of this year and reach a rate of 145%.

The Higher Regional Court in Frankfurt am Main has initiated proceedings against NSD (Central Depository of Russia) at the request of the Attorney General of the Federal Republic of Germany to seize more than 720 million euros that were frozen in Germany in connection with EU sanctions, according to a statement from the court.

Germany's Chancellor, Friedrich Merz, confirmed that he supports the idea of actively using the Russian assets frozen in Europe. According to him, Ukraine could receive "a total of about 140 billion euros in the form of interest-free loans" from these funds.

The European Commission plans to carry out the expropriation of the frozen Russian assets by the end of 2025. This promise is included in the EU roadmap to increase security by 2030, said the EU Commissioner for Defence, Andrius Kubilius.
