"Today, Russia thanked us for lifting sanctions on diesel exports by dropping five guided aerial bombs on residential buildings in Zaporizhzhia. As of now, unfortunately, we know of 12 people killed, including three children."

Ukraine should do the funniest thing over the next half month and knockout Russia's Baltic Sea terminals at
Port of Primorsk
Port of Ust-Luga
Port of Vysotsk
Port of St. Petersburg
Port of Kaliningrad
Port of Vyborg
Like Russia has any diesel to give the world 😂
BREAKING: Donald J. Trump announced following a discussion with Russian President Vladimir Putin that Russia will supply large quantities of diesel fuel to the global and American marketplace, starting with over 300,000 tons immediately, another 500,000 tons in November, 1,000,000 tons thereafter, and an additional 3,000,000 tons shortly after. Combined with control of the Strait of Hormuz, this agreement aims to quickly lower diesel prices for Americans, farmers, ranchers, and truckers. He also stated that Iran will not have a nuclear weapon.

Talked to someone recently who knows a lot about defense tech, and he made an interesting point: the test of most military hardware right now is whether the Ukrainians want it. They have a hot war going against a determined opponent, and they know what works.

President Zelenskyy’s comment on US Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s remarks that the war in Ukraine is at a "strategic stalemate" and that there are now "no prospects for a negotiated settlement":
"You cannot negotiate future economic projects with Russians on the one hand and, on the other, claim that we are in some kind of diplomatic stalemate. We are not in a diplomatic stalemate.
Shut down Russia’s entire economy. Shut Russia's mouth. Stop feeding them through your sales. Impose sanctions on their weapons.
Open Starlink for Ukraine. You opened it when responding to Iran, after all. Everything worked there. Israel completely controlled the skies over Iran. So when you need it to work, it works.
It costs them nothing to help Ukraine. And I said quite frankly: help us protect our skies and gain dominance there.
Then Putin will sit down at the negotiating table. Why? Because he will lose everything. In two or three months, he will lose everything.
And instead, we are waiting for the Chinese to develop an equivalent and hand it over to Russians.
This is not a stalemate - this is called a lack of will."
"Right now, there don’t seem to be prospects of a negotiated settlement of the war in Ukraine. But the US is prepared to play whatever role we can in making that happen. It would be good for Russia and Ukraine, but so far, it’s proving elusive." - US Secretary of State Marco Rubio
In an interview with the Greek outlet Kathimerini, Rubio described the war in Ukraine as a "strategic stalemate" that can be overcome in only two ways: through negotiations or through escalation that goes beyond the original conflict.
Rubio said that, at present, there are no prospects for resolving the war through negotiations. According to him, Russia continues to insist on full control over Donbas, while for Ukraine "that condition is simply unacceptable."
"A diplomatic solution has eluded us, but we are prepared, if we can play a constructive role, to make it happen.
In the meantime, we watch with great concern as escalation could happen. Just yesterday, some ships were attacked in the Black Sea through a coordinated drone attack. We’re worried about a sabotage operation in a neighboring country that can spiral out of control.
And, obviously, there are clear indications that Russia will use the upcoming winter as something they want to use to destroy what remains of the electric grid in Ukraine and force them into capitulation.
Meanwhile, Ukraine has grown more effective in its ability to conduct long-range strikes deep into Russia.
So, we share the same concern. The whole world is going about this thing like something that could escalate and perhaps become a broader conflict. So, we stand prepared to facilitate and continue to explore any opportunity for a negotiated settlement," Rubio said.
AFD got the call 📞
German AfD Leader Alice Weidel on Ukraine:
Please sit down at the table with the Ukrainians, with the Russians and with the Americans in order to end the fighting in Ukraine.
The war in Ukraine, unlawfully begun by Russia — we always say that as well — must be ended as quickly as possible through a negotiated solution.
This war has become a security risk, above all for Europeans and first and foremost for the Federal Republic of Germany.
Get mad at Ursula all you want; she simply represents the will of the electorate. It honestly is suprising the Europe has even been willing to help Ukraine at all tbh.
The situation in the Black Sea is increasingly concerning.
Commercial ships – and innocent crews – are being targeted, with lives already lost at sea.
Today, two commercial vessels were hit in Bulgaria’s economic zone in Black Sea.
This comes just one day after a Turkish ship carrying Ukrainian grain was struck and sunk off the Romanian coast.
While exact circumstances of these incidents are still being established, the developments are very concerning.
Attacks on civilian shipping are unacceptable.
We stand in full solidarity with our Member States on the Eastern flank.

The Nazis traded Albert Einstein for this.
They so thoroughly shattered European civilization with their massive psycho mid century genocide against Jews and Slavs that Europe never psychologically recovered and now 85 years later even the most basic forms of European nationalism are taboo and demonised due to the evil of the Nazis
There is a direct through line from the Nazis destroying European civilization in a hellfire of genocide and mass slaughter to contemporary Europeans being so demoralised and suicidal that they cannot defend themselves from the Mirpuri rape gangs of Britain, the Cologne New Year sex attacks, Manchester Arena suicide nail bombs against children, the Bataclan - and now low IQ banlieue enjoyer riff raff lighting French women’s faces on fire in the street.
Maybe the worst trade in the history of trade deals trading Albert Einstein and Nobel Prize winning German Jewish scientists for third world jihadis?
Thanks Nazis for psychologically raping Europe for 85 years.

The war won't end when Zelenskyy meets with Putin, but when Putin meets with Hitler.
Remeber when Kamala Harris said that Iran was America’s number one enemy?
A lot of people wish Trump waited until after the midterms to go to war with Iran, while some say the war shouldn't have happened at all.
I once held these opinions myself. However, I now think the war with Iran was necessary, and I feel it happened at the right time. You might begin to realize you're starting to feel this way too.
War with Iran was necessary and inevitable.
And that's because Iran had the intentions, resources, and time to create a nuke. The war was 100% guaranteed given these three variables. If not Trump this term, then whoever won in 2028.
We also need to assume Trump had additional information you and I don't have. Presidents always do. Don't leave that out. Experts even said Iran was months away from a nuclear weapon.
Let's now walk through all of the options Trump had at his disposal prior to the war.
A. Go to war now before the midterms. Best case: Trump wraps up the war before November and takes a disarmed Iran into the midterms as an accomplishment. If the war runs long, Trump still has a two-year buffer before 2028. Wrap it up by 2028 and he has a disarmed Iran and indefinite regional peace set up for a Vance, Rubio. In this option, Trump may sacrifice Congress in 2026 for a Vance or Rubio White House in 2028.
B. Wait until after the midterms. This is the same war but worse timing. If it drags into 2028, Vance or Rubio's campaign is bogged down by "Trump's war". Their odds drop. Now you are one election away from AOC, Kamala, or Newsom inheriting a war, and that is the last thing on the planet you want, right?
C. Kick it to the next president. This is just delaying the inevitable. If Rubio or Vance wins, you at least have two of the best people available to inherit the problem. But if they lose, the least equipped people to run a war on the planet are going to have to take military action against a nuclear Iran. That's the risk of kicking the can down the road. “Wait until the next term” only works if you also win in 2028. Super risky. You do NOT want to run the risk of AOC, Kamala, or Newsom having to take military action against Iran.
D. No military intervention whatsoever. Not now. Not in four years. Not in 10 years. Let Iran build the nuke and use it and let Europe, Israel, and Middle East region fend for themselves. If you don't like your gas prices now...wait until you see them then. This evolves into World War III.
Many of you can see it now, right? The war is not ideal, but is still necessary. And once you look at every option side by side, Trump’s course (Option A) is not only reasonable, but the best option, because when you see all the options at once, you see things more clearly.
There are going to be people who reply to this post before reading the whole thing. If you're reading this part, I want you to read through the replies after this post gets a lot of traction and notice how some people will say Trump "shouldn't" have gone to war.
These people would not be able to make an argument to support this opinion without the word "should" or "shouldn't".
We live in a world where the variables are the variables.
People who use "should"/"shouldn't" in their argument are removing variables in their mind, but removing variables in your mind do not remove them in reality.
Remember, Iran has the intentions, resources, and time to create and launch a nuke at Israel and Europe. These conditions guarantee World War III unless there is some sort of military intervention.
That's what the "should-ers" and "shouldn't-ers" are leaving out.

We condemn recent Russian attacks on Kyiv by which a 14 years old Israeli citizen was killed last night, and 20 people - including the boy's mother were injured.
Our condolences to the family, and the families who lost their loved ones in recent attacks on Kyiv and other cities in Ukraine and wishing quick recovery to the wounded.

France is broke and everyone knows it.
The fact that she still wants to continue military aid to Ukraine is the main issue, and a major win.
Marine Le Pen said she would halt French financial assistance to Ukraine if she wins the 2027 presidential election. “We can no longer provide financial assistance to Ukraine, and we regret that,” she told POLITICO. However, Le Pen said France could continue training Ukrainian soldiers and military leadership and providing military aid. She also said she could support a postwar peacekeeping force in Ukraine if such a deployment became one of the conditions for negotiating a ceasefire. #France
