Kasparov: Trump fits the psychotype of a dictator. Russia’s agents, “all over Ukraine,” failed to prevent the container drone strike.

This war isn’t just Putin’s — it’s Russia’s.

Russia knows it can’t win militarily, so it targets civilians.
West, must admit we are guilty

Kasparov: putin believed he had spies all over Ukraine, yet his own intelligence agencies didn’t even know Ukraine was planning the attack on airfields.

At that level, Ukraine had already shaken off its influence—nothing leaked. 1/
Kasparov: Trump has a psychotype of a dictator — he lacks a sense of right and wrong.

Merz clearly highlighted the gap between Trump’s values and those of the free world. 2/
Kasparov: This isn't just putin's war—it's russia’s war.

Claims by Russian oppositionists in the EU Parliament that Russia is moving toward democracy are nonsense. We're witnessing a genocide carried out by Russian citizens. 3/
Kasparov: putin’s goal is to eliminate Ukraine. No one in russia bothers to hide it.

Since putin can’t achieve this militarily, his only leverage is terrorizing the civilian population. 4/
Kasparov: No tickets are being “sold” to russia of the better future.

This ticket must be paid for by repentance. We are responsible for russia's actions. 5X

Russian opposition figure Kara-Murza in WP: Russians have returned to PACE to shape what Russia must look like after Putin and to draft a roadmap for democratic transition

The Council of Europe admitted 15 anti-war Russian opposition figures, four years after expelling Russia.1/ Image
The delegates replace former Kremlin MPs like Pyotr Tolstoy and ex-ambassador Sergey Kislyak. Petra Bayr, President of the Assembly, opened the session by stating: “Russia is not only a regime.” 2/
Russia joined the Council of Europe in 1996. Membership gave Russian citizens access to the European Court of Human Rights.

Over the years, the court issued thousands of rulings in favor of Russians challenging unlawful state actions. 3/

Europe must build its own army to counter Putin. The continent has 450 million people — yet it cannot defend itself without the U.S., writes Max Bergmann in FA.

Raising defense spending to 3.5% of GDP will not replace American ground power in Europe. 1/ Image
In its 2025 National Security Strategy, the Trump administration signaled that the U.S. no longer sees itself as Europe’s long-term security guarantor.

Washington reduced support for Ukraine, imposed tariffs on allies, and questioned NATO’s future role. 2/
Europe’s problem is structural. The continent has around 30 separate militaries, built to operate as auxiliaries under U.S. command. Without American logistics, intelligence, airlift, and command systems, NATO becomes hollow. 3/

$1.1B flowed from the state budget into the pockets of ministers, police generals and judges. Now Russia claws it back.

Over 5–7 years, authorities seized 100B rubles in corruption cases.

In total, the state grabbed 4T rubles ($44B) in assets. It sold only 8%. ––Moscow Times.1/ Image
Example: billionaire Konstantin Strukov.

The state seized his gold company Yuzhuralzoloto. He had funded United Russia for years. Now he sits in pretrial detention. 2/
Mid-level officials fell too. Former Ural road chief Alexei Borisov owned: 19 land plots, 15 houses, 26 apartments, 40 commercial spaces. Authorities moved to confiscate them. 3/

Former CIA Director Petraeus: Ukraine plans to produce 7 million drones this year, compared to roughly 300,000 in the US. It’s at the forefront of modern warfare.

If you want to see the future of war, come to Ukraine — on both sides, innovation is moving fast.

1/
Petraeus: Ukraine’s innovation is extraordinary. I’ve never seen anything like it. The speed at which new drone capabilities are deployed is remarkable.

It has helped offset Russia’s advantages — five times more manpower and an economy 10–15 times larger.

2/
Petraeus: In Ukraine, those who design, build, and use drones are the same people, working fast.

The US system is far more cumbersome. Ukraine is creating tomorrow’s tech for today’s war. We need to transform much of our force.

Former CIA Director Petraeus: I said from the start Russia would not take Kyiv. Others predicted it would fall in 3–5 days. Kyiv is a vast city with brave defenders.

It would be extremely hard to break in — and Ukraine’s actions denied Russia the airfield north of the capital.1/
Petraeus: The Budapest Memorandum was a major failure.

Ukraine gave up nuclear weapons in exchange for security assurances from the US, Russia, and the UK and those guarantees weren’t upheld. This is Ukraine’s war for independence — a fight for its very survival.

2/
Petraeus: US sanctions are under Senate review.

If paired with the EU’s 19th package and continued military support, the pressure could be strong enough to push Putin toward a ceasefire by the end of the year.

Former CIA Director Petraeus: When about 20 drones violated Polish airspace, Warsaw didn’t call Brussels or Washington, it called Kyiv.

Ukraine is the most advanced in building a “drone wall,” showing how to defend vast front lines.

1/
Petraeus: I don’t think Russia will move against a NATO country until it achieves its aims in Ukraine — and likely takes Moldova next.

Russian troops remain in Transnistria. After that, a Baltic state, possibly Lithuania, could be targeted.
