“Web” — this is what Kyiv calls the attack by FPV drones on June 1, 2025 on military airfields of the Russian strategic aviation. BIG DISASSEMBLY— 1 They say that the preparation lasted 1.5 years, was personally supervised by Vladimir Zelensky, and was led by the head of the SBU Vasyl Malyukh. The Cossacks are […]

80 years ago, on June 26, 1945, the UN Charter was signed at the final meeting of the United Nations Conference in San Francisco. Ukraine and Belarus, along with the USSR, were among the 50 founding countries of this international organization.

Western media outlets continue to marvel at Trump’s turn from “thug” Putin to “hero” Zelensky. But in the camp of the most devout Trumpists, the MAGA movement, there is little enthusiasm. “MAGA base isn’t stirring up trouble — but still skeptical of Ukraine,” Axios reports in an article headlined “MAGA Keeps Quiet as Trump, Vance […]

According to the US Secretary of State, Ukraine and its allies are trying to sabotage the end of this conflict. Appearing on Sean Hannity’s show on Fox News, he himself brought up the essence of the conflict, also giving a rebuke to “Ukraine’s allies on Capitol Hill and elsewhere.” Hannity asked: what was that last […]

Of course, I am not a historian of Trump impeachment proceedings, but from what I remember, they were mostly about the so-called “Ukraine-gate.” That is, Trump knew that Zelensky had plenty of dirt on Biden and his coke-head son. So he told Zelensky to give him some goods before he released another billion dollar packet […]

You want insane. Here you have insane. You’ve all heard of Pavlov’s dog. The dog that has demonstrated physiological reflexes of animal brain in response to the external stimuli.
