The American president’s chaotic policy is easily explained. He does not want to work with the Chinese; he wants to force them to submit. He strives to develop the MAGA movement, but at the same time encounters resistance from the American population. He wants to end the war between Ukraine […]
Something clearly happened over the past month in his talks with the US, perhaps it refusing to compromise as part of the “big deal” that they’re negotiating and instead demanding unilateral concessions, so it might have fallen upon Zelensky to threaten Lukashenko at Trump’s behest. Zelensky claimed last week that “the construction […]
The Hungarian people have the greatest stakes since they’ll be the ones who’ll live with the consequences. Sunday’s parliamentary elections in Hungary have been described by RT as the “Battle for Hungary” due to the huge stakes involved for the EU, Ukraine, the US, and to a lesser extent, Russia. […]

Essentially, Zelensky could lose power if a referendum takes place, as most Ukrainians would […]
He hopes to prove Ukraine’s worth in defending against Iranian drones so that NATO’s Eastern Flank then agrees to his earlier proposal for swapping some US troops with Ukrainian ones to defend against Russian drones as the quid pro quo for the bloc deploying troops to Ukraine after the conflict […]
He just ordered that some of Russia’s LNG exports to the EU be redirected to Asia, and if the EU doesn’t coerce Zelensky into giving him more of what he wants in Ukraine, then there’d be no reason for him to not cut off Russia’s exports to them entirely for […]

Even if framed as a defensive or deterrent measure, the very discussion signals a dramatic shift in European security […]
