1/10 The dispatch of north korean troops to support russia in its genocide in Ukraine exposes the grim truth about russia's faltering invasion and also highlights the inadequacy of Western escalation management.
2/10 There are rumors that north korea plans to deploy an engineering unit to Donetsk to aid russia in its unsuccessful invasion and genocide of Ukraine.
3/10 If verified, this demonstrates yet another dismal symbolic setback for russia, as it appears incapable of invading Ukraine without direct military intervention from its allies. Even with such support, its prospects for success seem bleak.
4/10 This underscores the complete failure of Western appeasement toward russia, a development that should not come as a surprise to anyone. russia's allies, including china, have continued to escalate their support for russia.
5/10 South Korea and Japan should urgently reconsider their policies and begin providing military assistance to Ukraine in response.
6/10 north korean troops should also compel the West to take action by increasing aid to Ukraine and lifting restrictions.
7/10 The use of north korean troops and ballistic missiles by russia should be sufficient to compel the West to remove all restrictions on matters such as deep strikes inside russian territory. Such action would be only equitable.
8/10 russia is on track to lose the war in Ukraine. The only potential game-changer would be a direct intervention by russia's allies, coupled with substantial material support from china.
9/10 The West must revise its strategy to prevent this outcome, and if it occurs, it will need to significantly increase its efforts.
The leaders signed a letter of intent that opens the way for Ukraine to acquire up to 100 Rafale fighter jets, SAMP/T air defense batteries, interceptors, radars, and more ⬇️
2/5 This is great for Ukraine and France, but let’s be clear: these are not orders yet.
Just like with Gripen E jets, there is still no funding.
Ukraine needs Russian frozen assets seized to make these purchases possible. This needs to happen ASAP
3/5 Timing matters. France is politically unstable right now.
Large defense orders will make it harder for future French governments after Macron to turn their back on Kyiv.
This is smart strategy from Ukraine: security and industry interests will align
1/7 The Trump–Vance war is being fought behind the scenes.
What would a Vance victory mean for US policy?
He is even worse and more dangerous than Trump ⬇️
2/7 This fight is unfolding in private meetings, donor networks, and media ecosystems that most people never see.
Vance’s backers/owners Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, and their associates are leveraging the Epstein files in an effort to sideline Trump and elevate Vance before 2028
3/7 Trump was always just a stepping stone.
He is old, unpopular, and tainted by Epstein files.
They need to avoid being stained by him. That is why Vance stays silent on Epstein emails
