I still can't believe that video of the Polish lady rubbing bacon over her chin failed to secure Vucic a majority in paliament.
This past week, America's MAGA influencers have joined Europe's pro-Russian far-right in Belgrade to promote Serbia's Russia-alligned Vucic regime ahead of elections. All traditional Kremlin narratives are represented.

A midday strike by a jet-powered Russian drone destroyed Ukraineโ€™s National Academy of Sciences in central Kyiv, sending flames and smoke into the sky. The @FT witnessed several people scrambling for safety and climbing out of third-floor windows as what was left of the building was engulfed by fire. Medics tried to revive a woman with CPR. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said the woman was killed and six other people, including three children, were injured in the attack. ft.com/content/e423eb7f-ec97โ€ฆ

Moving around Kyiv while the city is under attack is a surreal experience. Talk from New York of diplomatic discussions feels like a total abstraction. In 6 weeks, the constant alerts have become Kyivโ€™s new reality.

Russian jet-powered drones have bombed central Kyiv throughout today, largely targeting the neighborhood around the main railway station. The city is shrouded in smoke and the air smells heavy and toxic. At least one person has been killed and many others wounded. Fires are still burning here.

Reuters reports that Latvia has blocked a proposed EU deal that would lift sanctions on billionaires Alisher Usmanov and Mikhail Fridman in return for extending sanctions on around 3,000 other Russia-linked individuals and entities for three years. France joined Slovakia in pushing for sanctions on Usmanov to be lifted, while Luxembourg subsequently demanded the same treatment for Fridman. Fridman, meanwhile, is seeking $16 billion from Luxembourg in arbitration and EU diplomats told Reuters that Luxembourg argued its case for maintaining sanctions against him could be weakened if Usmanov were removed from the list. The entire sanctions regime is due to expire at midnight tonight unless all 27 EU members unanimously agree to renew it.
Reuters reports that EU ambassadors have agreed to lift sanctions on Moscow billionaires Alisher Usmanov (born in Uzbekistan) and Mikhail Fridman (born in Ukraine) provided no member state objects within hours. The agreement forms part of a deal to extend sanctions on thousands of other individuals and entities for three years.
