Failed russian offensive.

It is important to understand just how big of failure was russian offensive on Ukraine in the past year. The map shows a Donetsk region. In red are all russian “successes” in one year. In one year!

1/n Image
2/ At this speed, it will take russia about 100 years to occupy the Donetsk region. Not to mention millions of dead russians.

Meanwhile, in less than two weeks, Ukraine has captured more territory than russia during one year.
3/ This brings me to my last point and a conclusion that russia is simply incapable to fight large wars, and more so to defend its vast territories.

Trump claims the U.S. has given $350 billion in aid to Ukraine. Is that true? Short answer: No. Trump lied. When asked for a source, the White House has stayed silent. Let’s break down the real numbers. 1/n Image
2/ The Kiel Institute, which tracks aid to Ukraine, reports that the U.S. has spent $119.7 billion between Jan 2022 and Dec 2024. Other independent estimates align closely with this figure. Image
3/ Fox News recently cited $175 billion, but that’s the total amount approved by Congress—not all of it has been sent. Some of it was blocked by Trump himself. Image

1/ It looks like a betrayal of Ukraine by the U.S. administration.

Reports indicate that Ukrainian troops are retreating from Kursk (Forbes). Russians have been spotted raising their flags in Sudzha—the main city in Kursk previously captured by Ukrainian forces.

1/n Image
2/ The U.S. only restored arms supplies and vital intelligence sharing with Ukraine after Ukraine began retreating. That’s no coincidence.
3/ I suspect Trump’s administration made a secret deal with Putin. Putin wouldn’t freeze the war along the front line—it would mean losing part of russia.

To understand the civilizational battle confronting the world today, we need to discuss a little-known 1997 book by a russian neo-fascist named Alexandr Dugin—so closely linked to Putin’s ideology that he’s been called “Putin’s brain.”

1/n Image
2/ Dugin has spent his life denouncing liberalism and democracy, insisting that only russia could “save” humanity through the spread of Christian Russian Orthodox values.
3/ His book laid out a blueprint for how russia could fight “the battle for world rule of russians”—using information warfare, economic power, and military force to establish a new Eurasian Empire.

The deal between the U.S. and russia could be a modern-day Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact.

It seems I was right about Trump helping russia recapture Kursk.

1/n Image
2/ Yesterday, I warned that Trump is deliberately crippling Ukraine to enable russia to retake Kursk. Once that happens, he will have set the stage for Ukraine’s capitulation under his so-called “peace deal.”
3/ Now, Ukrainian soldiers are reporting that “russian forces in Kursk suddenly have extremely precise coordinates” for their troop locations, logistics, and ammunition depots.

Powerful speech by Senator Claude Maluret, head of the center-right LIRT group in the French Senate:

“We are now fighting against a dictator aided by a traitor.”

1/n Image
2/ “Europe stands at a crossroads. The American shield is collapsing, Ukraine risks losing support, and russia is strengthening. Washington has become Nero’s court: an emperor setting the world on fire, courtiers obeying, and a fool purging the state.
3/ This is a tragedy for the free world—but above all, for America itself. Trump’s message is clear: alliances are worthless. He won’t protect you. He’ll impose tariffs, threaten territory, and back dictators attacking you.

How can we explain Trump’s aggressive actions against Ukraine?

There is a perfect explanation!

1/n Image
2/ Half a year ago, I predicted that if Trump were elected, his administration would:
1.Block Ukraine from joining NATO.
2.Cut off aid to Ukraine.
3.Force Ukraine to surrender territory to russia by freezing the war along the front line.
3/ So far, two of these goals have been accomplished.

The third is trickier—Putin is hesitant to freeze the war because it would mean losing part of russia.

But Trump is doing everything he can to help russia shift the balance.
