”The filthy kleptocrat continues pushing Zelensky to focus on phantom offers of money”
Amid the US cutting both Ukraine's air defenses and Starlink to Ukraine’s frontline troops, the American President's multi-billionaire son in law arrives from Moscow to tell Zelensky how much money everyone will make if only he will hand his country to the Russians.
The filthy kleptocrat continues pushing Zelensky to focus on phantom offers of money, with "The potential for Ukraine is incredible"

”Shifting the focus to Europe’s security architecture is diverting the attention away from where it actually should be, which is stopping the killing in Ukraine.”
The sequencing of Ukraine-Russia talks is important.
The priority should be securing a ceasefire, followed by a peace agreement, and only then can there be discussions on Europe's wider security architecture.
Shifting the focus to Europe’s security architecture is diverting the attention away from where it actually should be, which is stopping the killing in Ukraine.
So far, we don’t see any goodwill from Russia.

”Oleg Levushkin, who organized the failed operation in Germany … holds both Russian and Latvian citizenship
His eldest daughter (35) lives in Riga. Her husband, until as recently as this November (!), was responsible for corporate security at a Latvian internet and electricity”
Kārtējais interesantais vācu izmeklējošās žurnālistikas raksts par Oļegu Ļevuškinu, kurš bijis organizators neveiksmīgajai operācijai Vācijā, mēģinot uzspridzināt Leipcigas lidostā esošās Ukrainas lidmašīnas. Kungam ir gan krievijas, gan Latvijas pilsonība (VDD sācis procedūru to atņemt).
Par šo kungu sižetā ziņoja arī mūsu pašu DeFacto, taču vācu rakstā ir vēl dažas interesantas lietas, kuras ir vērts pieminēt, piemēram:
- viņam esot 3 meitas. Viena no tām, 19gadīgā sevi soc.medijos pasniedz kā "influenceri", kura nesen vēl atradās Pēterburgā, Krimā un Venēcijā. 2022.gadā apmeklējusi Rammstein koncertu Tallinā, 2025.gadā strādāja Sanktpēterburgas Starptautiskajā ekonomikas forumā. (vai meitai arī mistiski ir divas pilsonības?)
- Vecākā meita (35.g.) dzīvojot Rīgā. Viņas vīrs vēl līdz šī gada novembrim (!) bijis atbildīgs par korporatīvo drošību kādā daļēji valstij(!) piederošā Latvijas interneta un elektroenerģijas pakalpojumu sniedzējā. (netiek nosaukts kurā).
Latvijas kritiskās infrastruktūras uzņēmums uz Vācijas žurnālistu jautājumiem atbildējis, ka "darba attiecības ar attiecīgo personu nesen izbeigtas".
- Ļevuškinu savervējušais GRU pulkvedis Deniss Smoļaņinovs ir iekļauts ES sankciju sarakstā. Viņš esot atbildīgais par "Ukrainas direktorātu".
- Rakstā vairākkārt pieminēta un skaidrota Serbijas nozīmīgā loma/atrašanās vieta šādu operāciju veikšanai iekš ES.

I took this photo in Helsinki in the spring of 1997, when I was covering the meeting between Presidents Clinton 🇺🇸 and Yeltsin 🇷🇺 as an Estonian 🇪🇪 journalist.
The question hanging in the air was whether Russia would succeed in keeping the Baltic states within its sphere of influence and preventing NATO enlargement. Clinton’s answer was an unequivocal NO, and Russia had to back down.
Nearly 30 years later, nothing has changed. Russia is once again demanding the return of what it considers “its territories” and its sphere of influence.
Our answer must be the same: NO!

Europe must not enter into negotiations with Russia while it continues its war of aggression. This is a trap that could lead to the disintegration of Europe. Instead, Europe should adopt a clear strategic objective: peace can be restored only when the aggressor has been defeated economically, diplomatically and, in Ukraine, militarily.

This is a threat about imperial conquest.
Putin has not changed his position one iota. On the contrary, he has expanded his war aims since negotiating with the Trump team.
Interesting that @Swedish_Navy don’t have anything on this positive news. I found it on Instagram and Kungahuset.

Zelenskyy: We need to sit and speak at the level of leaders. Putin lives in a different reality.
When I received the second report from our negotiating team after their meetings in Abu Dhabi, they told me that the Russians think and say they have already occupied half of Donbas, which remains under our control. These were military officers, Russian intelligence, and they were serious about it. Our team told them, “We don’t know how you can even say such things. We have video footage, images, other things proving that these areas are under our control.”
This is the problem. Putin lives in a different reality. Of course, he will be sharing with the Americans that he needs one or two months to fully occupy the east of Ukraine. I can draw a picture for him too where I fully occupy Russia. But it’s not true. What was good is that the American side confirmed the Ukrainian assessment of what is happening on the battlefield.
This is why we need to sit and speak at the level of leaders. There are a lot of questions. Like we spoke about the city of Kherson that is divided by the river today. The Russians control one bank, we control the other. But people want to live united on both banks. This is a Ukrainian city. Such issues are sensitive, but we have to speak about them. I think that tomorrow the teams will discuss the possibility of meeting at the level of leaders. I'm not sure that Russia is ready, but we will raise this topic.

President Zelensky explains that the Russians increasingly live in a fantasy world, promoting the idea that they occupy whole swathes of Ukraine that are no where near Russian soldiers, and further, that Putin shares this inverse reality.

"Russia, fortunately, will disappear forever."
E' ufficiale: la Russia oggi è messa peggio dell'URSS.
La situazione dei conti è di molto peggiore alla fine dell'era sovietica, quando l'URSS stava per cadere.
Ma a conti fatti la situazione è ancora più grave, e di molto, perché l'URSS all'epoca non comprendeva solo la Russia odierna, ma anche tutti i territori coloniali occupati. E invece questo deficit, più grave di quello dell'URSS, riguarda solo la Russia.
La caduta dell'URSS, che Putin ha sempre definito come l'evento più traumatico della storia, sarà rose e fiori in confronto al baratro in cui Putin sta gettando il suo paese.
La Russia, per fortuna, sparirà per sempre.
