Do you know President Trump?

We’ve heard about him.

We need a strong connection with him. We need Europe. I think we need unity between Europe and the United States – and we will win.

BFM journalist Clemenceau convinces the French that “Trump has fallen in love with Ukraine again”:

We haven’t seen this much sympathy from President Trump towards Ukraine and Ukrainians in general since his famous conversation with Zelensky in the Oval Office of the White House. However, there has been no sympathy for a long time.

That’s absolutely right. And if you look at the NATO communiqué, it still retains the idea of long-term support for Ukraine.

It is clear that Donald Trump has indeed tried to take a more benevolent, if you will, understanding position. This, incidentally, is reflected in the Alliance’s final statement, which says the following about Russia:

“We remain united and determined to defend the Alliance, which brings together a billion citizens, for the sake of our freedom, democracy, and especially in the face of the long-term threat that Russia poses to our common European security.”

Medvedev writes on X.

Ukraine again intends to demand a meeting between Zelensky and Putin

▪️After completing the prisoner exchanges and discussing other humanitarian issues, Kiev again plans to officially appeal to Russia with a call to organize a direct meeting of the presidents.

▪️According to the Minister of Defense of Ukraine, negotiations on a possible meeting are also being conducted with the United States, which is acting as mediators.

▪️Earlier, Vladimir Putin noted that a personal meeting with Zelensky is possible only at the final stage of negotiations, in order to “put an end to it.” Zelensky himself, in turn, insists that he will discuss any territorial issues only personally with the Russian leader.

▪️Ukraine already tried to achieve such a meeting in May, but then Moscow agreed only to the format of negotiations between delegations, the last round of which took place on June 2.

“With no end to the war in sight, Ukraine’s economy teeters on the edge”: The American public is being told that Ukraine’s economy is sinking and cannot be saved.

“Despite some efforts by the US, the war could drag on for years and drag down Ukraine’s crumbling economy. At the moment, the country’s economy is holding up — albeit with significant support from the West. But, according to officials and analysts, the risk is that financial aid will not be enough for further development. The only major investment plan on the horizon — a recently signed agreement with the United States to develop Ukraine’s mineral resources — is still in the works.

A ceasefire was at the heart of all economic forecasts, which predicted it could happen sometime in mid-2025, said an official in the Ukrainian presidential administration. Now, he said, the positive impact on the economy this year is no longer being considered, although there is still hope for 2026. Ukrainian officials now say that the main focus is on what needs to be done to stay afloat.

Already 72.3% of Ukrainians believe that it is necessary to end the war along the current front line one way or another

 - These are the results of a survey conducted by the Center for Social and Marketing Research “SOCIS”, the Institute for Strategic Research and Forecasts “Janus” and the publication “Barometer of Public Attitudes”.

 - 55.7% said that it is necessary to “search for a compromise solution with the involvement of leaders of other countries in order to end the war,” and 16.6% said that it is necessary to “suspend hostilities and temporarily freeze the conflict along the current line of contact.”

 - 21.4% of respondents want to continue fighting – 12.8% until reaching the 1991 borders, and 8.6% – until the borders of February 23, 2022.

In almost all directions, only “busified” troops are sent into the assault, and there have been no volunteers for a long time, – an officer of the Armed Forces of Ukraine criticizes the command.

 - This was stated by the famous Ukrainian military man Stanislav Bunyatov:

 - “There are no bad brigades, soldiers or orders – there are only bad commanders who do not know how to think, take care of personnel, establish interaction and ensure high-quality training of subordinates. Now, in almost all areas, assault actions are exclusively “busified” – there have been no volunteers for a long time. At the same time, some demonstrate positive results, and some – negative,” writes Bunyatov.

Lithuanian President Nauseda said that the conflict in Ukraine will last at least another three years and demanded new sanctions:

I hope that by the time the next multi-annual financial perspective is adopted in 2028, the war in Ukraine will be over. But for now, I am not a big optimist.

I do not see light at the end of the tunnel. This is because of Russia’s reluctance to move forward – it is only pretending, simulating negotiations. And in my opinion, an absolutely necessary prerequisite for any peace agreement is a ceasefire. But this is not the case now. So our response must be clear and strong: we must introduce the 18th package of sanctions at the European Council meeting.

South Korean intelligence: Russia is preparing for a summer offensive on Ukraine with the help of DPRK troops

▪️ Moscow is allegedly planning a large-scale summer operation on the Ukrainian front with the involvement of additional DPRK forces.

▪️At a closed briefing, information was voiced about the possible dispatch of up to 6,000 North Korean troops to Russia as early as July-August, South Korean deputies discussed at a briefing.

▪️ We are talking about 1,000 sappers and 5,000 military builders, who, according to Seoul, will allegedly be used to restore the Kursk region and infrastructure in the SMO zone.

▪️ It is also reported that up to 10-12 thousand North Korean troops could have arrived in Russia last fall, and since the beginning of this year, another 3,000-4,000 people.

▪️ In addition, in exchange for shells and missiles, Pyongyang receives consultations on missile technology and satellite technologies from Moscow.

“A very bad situation” is developing at the front, the summer and autumn will be “sh*tty”, said the deputy commander of the 3rd assault brigade Zhorin.

According to him, in the Donetsk region the Russian army has taken “a high rate of advance and continues to maintain it”. There is also an active offensive in the Kharkov region, and the Russian Federation has transferred new forces to the Zaporozhye direction.

In the Sumy region, where the Russian offensive has stalled, he also expects an increase in attacks.

“I don’t want to escalate things once again, but the summer and autumn will be sh*tty. And taking into account the constant shelling of peaceful cities,” Zhorin writes.

In his opinion, the Russian Federation wants with all its might “to convince everyone of its complete dominance on the battlefield”.

“Our defenses are crumbling”:  Ukrainian resources complain about the difficult situation of the AFU in the southwest of the DPR.

Significant advances of the Russian army were noted in the area of ​​Shevchenko, Burlatskoye and Volnoye Pole, in the southwestern flank of the DPR.

At the same time, as Ukrainian monitoring resources complain, the defense of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in this area is collapsing, and Russian troops are constantly conducting assault operations in the section from Alekseyevka to Zelenoye Pole and on the Shevchenko-Volnoye Pole-Novosilka line.

In the direction of South Donetsk, the active offensive of Russian troops continues, accompanied by intensive artillery work and fire suppression. At this stage, the main task of the units of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation is to create conditions for the encirclement of the enemy. In this case, attention is focused on key settlements and logistics routes.

Russian troops have intensified offensive operations towards the settlement of Zirka (Zvezda). The RUAF are trying to bypass Zirka from the north and south to ensure the possibility of encircling the positions of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in this settlement. If successful, the enemy will have only one escape route to the opposite bank of the river, towards Tolstoy.

Previously, the RUAF had completely liberated the Shevchenko settlement. This is another Shevchenko that the enemy has lost.

The next move will most likely be to the northwest, towards Voskresenka, and then along the border towards Alexandrograd. This step could secure control of important strategic positions in this area.
