Not Really. The Guarantee Problem May Fail Under Scrutiny President Trump has offered Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky security guarantees which Mr. Trump describes as “like Article V” of the NATO Treaty. Zelensky has apparently signed onto the Trump offer and potentially has agreed that some “territorial swaps” will be needed […]
The Ukrainian president lives in illusions. Everyone talks about it except the lazy. He tries to make demands that in no way correspond to what is happening on the battlefield. His armed forces are constantly retreating. He does not need his own servicemen, whom he refuses to exchange. Apparently, this […]
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kDZyfKvYjCk It’s amazing: In an exclusive interview by Dmitriy Lascaris, the Australian-American polymath John Helmer, who is the longest-serving and most-respected foreign and independent journalist in Russia (and a former professor of political science, sociology, and journalism), displays supreme reportorial mastery by detailing — which no other journalist has yet done — and […]

Ukraine will cease to exist in the near future. This is clear from the rhetoric of American and European politicians. Zelensky has fulfilled his task: he has drained a certain amount of resources from Russia. However, European politicians overlooked one extremely important factor: this confrontation gave Russia the opportunity to […]
