Putin to reject Trump’s peace offer. New Russian conditions demand concessions from the U.S., not just Ukraine:

“Kellogg comes to Moscow with his plan, we take it and tell him to screw himself, because we don’t like any of it.”
1/
The Russian conditions for negotiations

1. Reversal of U.S. Support for Ukraine:

Cease the provision of advanced long-range weapons to Ukraine [So, it is finally hurting! Great!]

Remove President Volodymyr Zelenskyy from power [How? Kill him?]

2/
2. Territorial Concessions

Ukraine must formally cede four occupied regions to Russia [This is impossible as it would violate the Ukrainian Constitution]

Commit to never joining NATO [The same here] 3/
3.High-Level Global Negotiations:

Trump and Putin must meet to discuss a “general agreement” on the global order, security and geopolitics, the Middle East and Russia-China relations

[This is delusional non-sense as the U.S. doesn’t have formal power over other countries] 4/
Acknowledge Ukraine as part of Russia’s core sphere of influence

[Basically, surrender Ukraine to Russia and make it a province. Won’t happen!] 5/
4. Sanctions Relief:

Full rollback of Western sanctions imposed on Russia

6/
5. Recognition of Russia’s Position in Global Affairs:

A long-term peace agreement must validate Russia’s global strategic interests

[I think they mean Russian right to dictate other countries policies] 7/
6. Broader Conditions for Peace:

Address other international flashpoints and establish a new global framework for peace and security

[New United Nations? With Russian at the chair seat?] 8/
There are explicit threats if demands are not met:

Escalation, including the potential use of tactical nuclear weapons, leading to catastrophic consequences and a radiation zone in Ukraine

[Russia is nuts and Trump will have his plate full with these idiots] 9/
Continued strengthening of Russia’s economy and alliances (China, Iran, North Korea) through confrontation

[At least, they are honest about who they are - barbarians who want to get their way by force, and so must be stopped by force]

Zelenskyy: It is absurd that modern production has still not been scaled up to the level actually required to protect people from ballistic terror.

Ukraine has the know-how to produce such weapons, Reuters. 1/ Image
Zelenskyy: If Ukraine received US licenses to manufacture Patriot systems, our production would be sufficient not only to defend Ukraine, but also to assist partners who need them. 2X

I told CNN Ukraine needs U.S. and European money and weapons commitments beyond 2027.

If Ukraine has that support, Russia knows the war will end. The more support Ukraine gets, the faster the war will be over.

1/
Me: Russia keeps sending more drones and missiles. Ukraine now intercepts most drones and cruise missiles, but not ballistic missiles.

That is the gap. We need Patriots and ballistic interceptors. Russia cannot move much on the front, so it doubles down on bombing civilians. 2/
Me: Russia thinks bombing civilians will break Ukrainians. It will not. People take alerts more seriously and go to shelters.

Bucha, Mariupol, and Russian prisons taught Ukraine one thing: the alternative to fighting is much worse.

"I slowly looked to the side and saw my legs. One leg was bent like the letter G. Hysteria started.

You can't move, no help coming, and you can do nothing." — Volodymyr Prostokishin, 23, lost both legs in Bakhmut.

Ukrainska Pravda writes his story.

1/ Image
He was evacuating a 100-kilogram wounded soldier across an open minefield. A 120mm mortar hit. Two legs gone. Right arm shattered. Shrapnel entered his body and exited in spirals.

His comrade Grusha, who he was saving, died. It was two days before Volodymyr's 24th birthday.

2/
When he regained consciousness, his first thought was about his rifle. Then he tried to stand.

"I woke up and thought — I'll get up, go to work. What a dream — both legs gone." He says this with a smile now.

"Russians call it games. They put a bag over your head, pour water on your face until you almost drown.

They stick needles under your fingernails and apply electric shocks to your ears, your testicles, your fingers." — Yevhenii Malik, Mariupol defender — Kronen Zeitung.

1/ Image
Malik on daily beatings: "In the morning they beat the whole barracks — just to say hello." Ten men in a 20-square-meter cell, standing from 6 AM to 10 PM.

No walking, sitting, talking, looking out the window, or smiling. Toilet and water only on command.

2/
The torture had a goal: to extract confessions of war crimes.

"They bombed Mariupol for a month with jets and artillery, killing enormous numbers of civilians. But they wanted to portray us as war criminals." Malik signed under torture. "You have no other option," he says.

Russia shifted air defense systems to Moscow from elsewhere in the country. Ukraine still penetrated them — The Atlantic, Phillips Payson O’Brien.

By revealing the limits of Putin's power, Ukraine has to be making his allies and flatterers very nervous.

1/ Image
Ukraine struck the Dubna Space Communications Center twice in one week. Russia uses it to collect intelligence and coordinate army units in occupied Ukraine.

Zelenskyy: "Relevant actions are also being prepared against other similar enemy facilities."

2/
The Moscow refinery hit on June 18 produces 40% of the Moscow region's fuel. It is reportedly out of action for the remainder of 2026. The strike created a massive black smoke plume visible across the city.

The message: Ukraine hits the most important economic targets.

After 2022, NATO drilled scenarios that still assumed technological superiority and uninterrupted supply chains. In Ukraine, soldiers improvised with software updated overnight.

NATO is not prepared for the battlefield of the future. — Myroslava Gongadze, Ukrainska Pravda.

1/ Image
For decades, NATO exported military knowledge to its partners. Today, Ukraine exports combat experience in drone warfare, electronic warfare, and battlefield adaptation back to NATO.

Integrating Ukraine is a strategic necessity.

2/
Ukraine's factories that once produced furniture and consumer electronics now manufacture drones and military equipment. Ukraine is no longer only a recipient of military aid.

It is a source of combat innovation that can strengthen the US, NATO and the democratic community.
