⚡Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski dismissed the idea of a single European Army.

“We should be careful with this term because people understand different things. If you mean the unification of national armies, it will not happen.”

⚡AfD leader Alice Weidel:

We want to have very good relations with Russia.

What we want is to end a policy of sanctions that is, above all, one thing: damaging to our country.

⚡Ireland’s prime minister said the European Union needs to innovate more and regulate less in order for the bloc to compete with the US and China on technology.

“We will see hopefully slower regulatory impulses but also a simplification of regulation,” Micheal Martin told Bloomberg TV on Saturday. The EU needs to make sure it doesn’t “tie companies up in knots so that we don’t over-regulate to the extent that we paralyze certain sectors of the economy,” he added.

How do you expect to reason with people who betray their own populations? You can't. They're all fools and I don't expect Russia to be fooled again.

⚡Russian tourists flying from Egypt to Kaliningrad are stranded in Poland without food and water.

Flight UJ681 of AlMasria Airlines made an emergency landing in Poznan. The Poles refuse to let people out - and give them the fuel that has run out.

Passengers have been waiting for permission to take off for more than 10 hours. They have run out of food, water, and they are not letting people into the toilet. There are 236 passengers on board, including pregnant women and children.

The plane was flying from Sharm el-Sheikh to Kaliningrad. Due to a snowstorm, it could not reach Khrabrovo airport and had to request an emergency landing in Poland.

The Poles allowed the plane to land, but do not want to let people out: they refuse to refuel and will not give permission to take off.

⚡NATO officials criticize Ukraine for wasting Western arms by relying on Soviet-style tactics.

Tensions are rising between NATO and Ukraine. UK defence sources criticised Ukraine's army for misusing Western-donated weapons. Ukrainian forces are using Soviet-style tactics, wasting expensive NATO equipment.

Ukrainian troops misuse costly NLAW missiles (£20,000 each), treating them like cheap RPGs—firing salvos worth over £100,000 instead of using NATO’s precision tactics. Reports claim Ukrainian forces have abandoned Javelin launchers, some falling into Russian hands.

“The Russian Army may now have more Javelins than the British Army," a British source said.

Lmaooooo!!!!

In other words they want them to ration missiles and ammo... Soviet fighting style do not ration, cuz they have huge stockpiles of them.

These are the clowns who say they would overwhelm Russia in a war with NATO 😂

How do they plan on using "overwhelming" force on Russia when they don't even missiles?? 🤣

⚡Europe needs a special envoy for Ukraine to ensure it gets a meaningful role in any peace process, Finnish President Alexander Stubb said after the continent was ruled out as a partner in talks by Trump's administration.

"If I may just throw out one idea loosely, if there is a negotiating table, I think we need to do something similar that was done in Kosovo. Europe needs to have a special envoy like Martti Ahtisaari (on Kosovo), and then a deputy envoy who is on the level of... Kellogg..., and in that sense, we get some kind of skin in the game." Finnish President Alexander Stubb said.

3 years later Iranian Shaheed drones continues to terrorize Ukraine.

Western militaries still haven't developed anything to counter them. If they had, they would have sent it to Ukraine to protect Ukraine energy infrastructures from being hit.

We're not giving Iran enough credit. Their drone & missile technologies are more advanced than we think.

⚡Workers in Greece have blocked the unloading of lorries carrying 350 tonnes of TNT bound for Ukraine.

The 13 vehicles carrying containers of the explosive were due to be unloaded at the port of Lavrio, but local workers said the transport was illegal. At their demand, the ship with the containers left the port.

The protesters hailed this as a major victory. The TNT was to be used to make 155mm artillery shells.

Zelensky is in a very bad position – Tara Reade
The former aide to Joe Biden has called into question the sacrifices required by the Ukrainian leader to keep fighting Russia

Ukraine’s Vladimir Zelensky is far from being in a winning position at the moment, RT contributor Tara Reade has said. The former aide to Joe Biden specified that Washington is no longer fighting a proxy war against Russia via Kiev, making the Ukrainian leader useless to both the EU and the US.

The comment comes after Russian President Vladimir Putin held a phone conversation with his US counterpart Donald Trump on Wednesday, the first known contact between the heads of state of the two nations since the escalation of the Ukraine conflict in February 2022.

“Zelensky is probably trying to figure out an exit route, among other things,” Reade said, adding that running for president again was not an option for the former comedian. “I think he wouldn’t be elected, obviously.”

The Ukrainian leader’s presidential term expired in May 2024, but he has refused to hold elections, citing martial law. Trump has also acknowledged that Kiev will eventually have to hold elections and noted that Zelensky might not serve another term, saying his domestic poll numbers “aren’t particularly great, to put it mildly.”

“He’s basically sacrificed a generation of men for what? To give rare earth minerals to the US? To give 22% of the lands to Russia?” Reade said, emphasizing that Zelensky was “in a very bad position.”

The comment refers to recent statements made by Trump, who demanded the “equivalent of $500 billion worth of rare earths” from Kiev in exchange for what the president estimated to be “more than $300 billion” Washington had provided in aid since the escalation of the conflict with Moscow.

US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent presented Trump’s proposal to Zelensky during their meeting in Kiev earlier this week. According to multiple media reports, the deal outlines that Washington would receive a 50% stake in Ukraine’s rare earth minerals as compensation for the American aid. On Saturday, the Financial Times reported, citing people familiar with the negotiations, that Ukraine had rejected the bid, citing the lack of security guarantees.

According to Ukraine’s Institute of Geology, the country’s deposits include lanthanum, cerium, neodymium, erbium and yttrium. However, Zelensky recently admitted that a large chunk of Ukraine’s mineral-rich territories, some 20%, is currently under Russian control.

NBC reported on Saturday, citing unnamed officials, that the White House could send troops to guard Ukraine’s rare earth minerals. The deployment of military forces could reportedly come after Russia and Ukraine reached a deal to end the ongoing conflict.

Reade said the reported troop deployment is unlikely. “There’s a will for there to be a different relationship with Russia.” She highlighted that US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth had said definitively “that there would be no US troops in Ukraine” and “US involvement in providing money and weapons was going to end.”
