Last Notes npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar If you look for proper example of Russia‘s 3-day war in Ukraine, then this „training“ exercise in Russia perfectly encapsulates it. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar This is so far the clearest view of the burning oil terminal in Saint Petersburg, Russia. At least two major fires are raging in the oil facility. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar CCTV footage emerged showing the yesterday’s strikes at the Voronezh Semiconductor factory in Russia. There were three precise hits in very short order. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar The now famous explosion of the roof-tossing oil silo in Moscow, Russia, was probably caused by a Russian air defense missile. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Spectacular explosion in the Kapotnya refinery in Moscow, Russia. This silo not only exploded but also catapulted the roof of the building into the air. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Ukrainian long-range drones once again penetrated the heavily protected air defense ring of Moscow, Russia, and struck the Kapotnya refinery. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar - Sanctions: Oil and gas sanctions on Russia are fully reinstated. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Russian logistics such as this truck convoy in occupied parts of Ukraine are getting absolutely hammered by Ukrainian drones. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Air travel over Saint Petersburg, Russia, has been completely suspended. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Ukrainian forces have launched a heavy attack on Saint Petersburg in Russia and hit multiple targets related to Russia‘s oil industry. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar The smoke cloud of the burning refinery has covered the entire city of Ryazan, Russia. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Ukrainian President Zelenskyy has given Russians permission to hold their parade on May 9 in Moscow. Target coordinates of the Red Square have been provided just for clarification. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar The last night operation against the Primorsk oil terminal at the Baltic Sea in Russia caused significant damage at the oil facility. The NASA Firms map shows several heat signatures at the oil loading pier, storages and buildings. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar During a hearing Congressman Adam Smith asked Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth why the Trump administration miscalculated Ukraine‘s capabilities, questioning why the Trump admin tried to push Ukraine into an unfavorable deal. Hegseth deflected and didn’t respond to the question. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar US forces have started the maritime blockade of Iran. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar People in the Budapest Metro, Hungary, shouting: “Russians, go home!” npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Ukrainian drones have caused absolute havoc at the Russian sea terminals in the Baltic Sea. Not only the oil terminal at Primorsk has been struck, but also the larger one in Ust Luga. Both oil terminals are on fire. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Hungary under Orban has been a Russian client state for years. The corruption levels are on par with those of its Russian masters. There is virtually no difference. The revelation that secret communications inside the EU have been delivered to Russia comes at no surprise. I’m also pretty certain that even NATO secrets have been delivered to Moscow. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Number of dedicated mine hunters / minesweepers in navies belonging to NATO: npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Trump last night: „We are helping NATO with Ukraine, so NATO should help the US to keep the Strait of Hormuz open.“ npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar The tankers „SafeSea Vishnu“ (IMO: 9327009) and ,Zefyros“ (IMO: 9515917) were struck near the coast of Iran and are burning. The attacks have likely been conducted by USVs. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar 4 years of war against the Russian aggressors including the invaluable experience as well as technology Ukraine has accumulated, and it is now the nations of the world in dire situation which ask Ukraine for help. The best part, Ukraine gives them the help. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar After admitting Khamenei’s death the remaining leadership figures of the Iranian regime will form a “leadership council” headed by Ali Larijani. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar An Iranian drone struck a high-rise building in Bahrain. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Nobody has more experience in countering Shahed drones than Ukrainian forces. The US, Israel and the Arab states in the Middle East should request their knowledge, instantly. The fact that Iranian Shahed drones can hit high-value targets of US forces rather easily is very telling. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Several cities in Iran have been struck. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Finally breaking my silence on this matter. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar No matter which government rules the country, all European nations share a common dislike for Putin, even in Hungary. All but one: Serbia. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar An Ukrainian F-16 intercepting a Russian Shahed drone. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar It appears that unregistered Starlink terminals in Ukraine, which are only used by Russian invaders, are going offline. Russian military bloggers are furious, cursing Elon Musk. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Possibly the biggest burn in this year, and this says a lot when reflecting the last 4 weeks. The French MFA absolutely torched Elon Musk. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar The Swiss company s2a observed the Russian recon satellite „Luch“ when it suddenly got destroyed. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar If the Iranian regime has to admit that we have a 4-digit number in deaths, then expect the death toll being far higher, probably over 10,000 as some opposition sources have already mentioned. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Russia’s losing streak is not coming to an end and received another episode, this time in Iraq. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar US forces are striking Caracas, Venezuela. This is a full scale operation. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar It is slowly dawning on some Russian bloggers what an absolute devastating loss the war is for Russia. Not a single strategic goal has been achieved, but a trillion USD wasted, plus more a million Russian casualties. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar The aggregated map with all Russian air attacks which occurred in 2025. Russia launched a record number of missiles and drones into Ukraine, making clear that Putin has no intention in peace. All while Trump is in office. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Ukrainian forces released a video showing the destruction of Russian targets in occupied parts of Ukraine. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Kudos to Ukrainian President Zelenskyy for keeping himself together after Trump‘s statement that „Russia wants Ukraine to succeed“. I would have bursted out laughing. But his facial expressions are priceless. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar US Senator Lindsay Graham on the question what happens if Putin does not stop the war: npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Spectacular footage from the naval port of Novorossiysk in Russia. For the first time an Ukrainian underwater drone struck a Russia Kilo class submarine and severely damaged it. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar EU Foreign Policy Chief, Kaja Kallas: npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Ukraine has accepted all six proposals presented by Trump, while Russia accepted zero. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Because the United States is pulling back, we must support Ukraine more strongly. If Ukraine falls, Russia will be at our border - and Washington won’t come to save us. Integrating Ukraine now as part of European defense and supporting it in such a way that it can push Russia back is part of this necessary efficiency. It will only cost us half of what a Russian success would.“ npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar I say this as a committed transatlanticist: Precisely because the United States sees us this way, we must finally stop being supplicants. We should stop blindly hoping and instead build up our own capabilities with maximum efficiency and develop smart power that makes us more independent and resilient. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar What does that mean? The era of the “security guarantee” is over. Washington now treats us more like an annoying client state that’s supposed to pay tribute, or like an economic rival that must be kept in check. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar The (military) music is playing exclusively in the Indo-Pacific. The resources we need for protection (air defense, reconnaissance) are heading to Guam and Taiwan to contain China. Nothing will be left for us unless we build it ourselves. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar For Trump, it’s "States over Institutions." The EU as a force for order is seen as a hostile construct that stands in the way of U.S. interests. In the economic worldview of this administration, we are not an ally, but a competitor that must be made to pay up. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar „The National Security Strategy of the Trump Administration is here. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Poland‘s Vice President Radoslaw Sikorski absolutely torches Elon Musk. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar The opening of Poland's prime minister, Donald Tusk, in reference to the 28 point paper is quite something. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Thinking he is responding to a private message Witkoff accidentally leaked that the Axios report must have originated from the Russian side. „K.“ is most likely Kirill Dmitriev, his Russian counterpart, who in the midst of those secret discussions saw the need to leak them. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar After so many wars Russia has waged against others and wasting unbelievably vast sums to perpetuate them, it is peak irony seeing technicals defending the Kremlin. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar It is visually confirmed that Ukrainian forces liberated Kucheriv Yar in the Donetsk region, Ukraine, most certainly eliminating the Russian encirclement in this area. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar After a long pause Russians have resumed attacks supported by columns of armored vehicles. They tried to reach their forces north of Pokrovsk, but were destroyed long before their reached their intended destination. Around one dozen Russian vehicles have been destroyed. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar In response to the massive Russian attack yesterday, Ukrainian forces struck Russian power plants in Klintsy, Bryansk region, and Belgorod last night. The strikes resulted in power outages. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar The Kirishi oil refinery in the Leningrad region, Russia, was struck and burns. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Almost ten years ago, Türkiye solved the problem with Russian planes violating their airspace. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar The Novatek export terminal at Ust-Luga in Russia is burning. The facility, which is around 800 km (500 miles) from the Ukrainian border, supplies oil tankers at the Baltic Sea. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar The Druzhba pipeline has been struck once again. It is the Unecha pump station, Bryansk region, in Russia. Ukrainian forces are making sure that this pipeline will not be operational for a long, long time, possibly forever. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar No pressure, no progress. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Chancellor Friedrich Merz: npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar According to WSJ, Finnish President Alexander Stubb called the cities of Kramatorsk and Sloviansk "a Bastion against the Huns“ which in return impressed Trump. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar „Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.“ npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Germany will deliver two more Patriot air defense systems to Ukraine. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar German Major General Christian Freuding reports that the German-Ukrainian Initiative, which was launched only in May and which includes the financing of long-range weapon systems, will result in the first delivery by the end of this month. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar An Ukrainian Antonov An-124, which was stuck in Kyiv since the Russian full-scale invasion in February 24, 2022, spectacularly flew from its home port in Ukraine to Leipzig, Germany. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Ukrainian SOF conducted an operation against the Borisoglebsk Air Base in the Voronezh region, Russia. Reportedly, warehouses of glide bombs were struck. The explosions caused additional damage to nearby planes. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar There will never be true ceasefire let alone peace with the mullah regime in Iran, just as there will never be true peace with Putin’s Russia. Both regimes thrive in conflict. Ignoring their intent will only further their ambitions. The only path to a lasting solution is the final removal of those regimes. Period. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar The Iranian Parliament has reportedly approved the closing of the Strait of Hormuz. Final decision lays now in Iran’s Supreme National Security Council. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar While the B-2 bombers were tasked to take out the Fordow facility, the US Navy were using 30 BGM-109 Tomahawk cruise missiles fired from US submarines to strike the Iranian nuclear facilities in Natanz and Isfahan. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Russians offered to exchange abducted Ukrainian children for captured Russians soldiers. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Weakness and appeasement always invites more war, because it tells everyone that military solutions are a (better) option. Russia's aggression in Ukraine is the greatest threat to the world than most realize. It goes far beyond to what happens there. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar The situation in Iran should surprise nobody. Iran has been moving forward in the nuclear program, and Israel cannot accept a nuclear armed Iran. And Iran on the other hand has learned from the failed Budapest Memorandum that treaties are nowadays just ink on paper. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Russian drone operators in Kherson have been hunting civilians using FPV drones. Ukrainian forces located one of their bases and used two AASM Hammer glide bombs to wipe the Russian drone base out. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar The oil depot in the industrial district of Engels, Saratov region, in Russia has been struck by at least one, likely more UAVs. Three silos are burning. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Merz: „Tomorrow is June 6, the D-Day anniversary, when the Americans ended the war in Europe.“ npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Part 2 npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Ukraine has released an extensive video in which the destruction of several strategic bombers of the Russian Air Force is documented. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar The attached map shows the rail network of Russia and the Russian-occupied territories in Ukraine. Due to their length it is not feasible for Russians to protect them all. In many cases it is enough to cut a railtrack just at one point to render a connection between two far-reaching cities inoperable. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar While many point out that the Kerch bridge linking Russia with Crimea is important, it is by far not the only weak link. There are plenty of bridges in the regions Bryansk, Kursk, Belgorod and especially Rostov which are quite vulnerable. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar The Russian rail network is essential for Russia's military logistics and economy. It is the only mean for Russians to haul supplies in large quantities through the country. Especially the rail tracks leading to Ukraine are absolutely crucial for Russia to be operational. Without them the war effort would fall apart quite soon. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar - New air defense assets worth €2.2 billion, primarily firing units and missiles of IRIS-T SLM and IRIS-T SLS will be transferred npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar The defense minister of Germany and Ukraine formalize the following points: npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar The amount of naivety in the West is staggering, when it comes to dealing with Russia. The majority of Russians live their whole life by pushing others. It starts from childhood, permeates in every aspect of their lives and never ends. If you don’t push back, they will push you all eternity. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar US Senator Chuck Grassley: npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar The Russian Ruble is in steep decline, losing another 3% just in a matter of hours. I guess that the Russian base interest rate will be increased soon above the current and high 21%, in order to slow down this development. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar The Chinese bulk carrier Yi Peng 3 has fully stopped in the Kattegat bay. Danish patrol ship HDMS Søløven is next to it. Danish boarding parties might be on the Chinese cargo ship, which is suspected to be responsible for cutting two undersea cable in the Baltic Sea. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar The 67th GRAU Arsenal in Karachev, Bryansk region, was struck. Large secondary explosions can be seen and heard. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar It is going to be a new experience for the Russian army inside that orange zone (ATACMS range of 300 km). npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar This is the real fear Moscow has. It is afraid of being irrelevant and in the end the weaker social model. Autocracy is a weak model, because it is inefficient. NATO exposes this fact when looking at all former Warsaw pact nations, which are economically, socially and politically thriving. (5/5) npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Moscow cannot offer anything of value to the Russian population and, therefore, will always need constant fear and war to distract from this fact. The moment we deny Russia this "business model", imperial Russia will collapse. (4/5) npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Russian excuses why they attack nations are redundant and lies. It is not about them. It is about imperial Russia. Russia is the bully which is always jealous and brutal. It is an entity where people leave in droves, where cities are decaying and life span is short. (3/5) npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Finland is the living proof for several facts: npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Finland, a country with a long border with Russia and in striking distance to crucial Russian bases such as Murmansk naval port, Olenya air base or even Sankt Petersburg, joint NATO in 2023, but no Russian missiles or drones hit the country when it announced that it wants to join the alliance. (1/5) npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar The Russian terror wave this morning was massive, but the Ukrainian defense prevented a catastrophe, once again. Shot down ratio: npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar Moldovan President Maia Sandu has won the 2nd and final round of the presidential elections. She is leading by almost 7 percentage points with 96.9% of all counted votes and cannot be overtaken by her opponent, even when he gets all remaining votes. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar 'm announcing that I'm going to cover the election night. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar If we abandon Ukraine and I see certain elements in the West already laying groundwork to do so, then I promise you total escalation with absolute certainty. We won't be able to stop what would come. It will be war all around the globe, using all our weapons in our arsenals, and not one person, even the most powerful person in the world, would be able to change the trajectory, once this course has been set. npub1k97t3x25kzq8pjslqye5l0xxmll0v2ze8akld6ygh0mmaq4j3tcszaznhw Tendar I have been covering the war in Ukraine since the very first day in 2014 and I can assess that we are now at the final crossroads. There is a possibility to conclude the war in a positive way, but also a threat for the exact opposite. It is only determined by us and what we do in the coming few weeks and even days.
