It seems unlikely that the handful of Russian drones that entered Polish air space did so accidentally. There have been previous incidents, but they involved individual drones very close to the Ukrainian border. Yesterday there were over a dozen, according to reports, with debris landing in several cities, including hitting one house, after NATO was scrambled to shoot them down. It is appropriate therefore that under Article 4 of the NATO Treaty, NATO members consulted over this and responded...| Responsible Statecraft
In the early hours of Sunday morning, Russia launched its largest air attack on Ukraine to date, including over 800 drones and 13 ballistic missiles. Cities across the country came under fire, and a government building in Kyiv was damaged. Officials in Europe and theUnited States were quick to condemn the attacks as evidence that Vladimir Putin is not serious about ending Russia’s nearly four-year conflict with Ukraine. They are right. Putin is not yet ready to stop fighting. And why would ...| Responsible Statecraft
Over the weekend, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen announced that Europe had developed “pretty precise plans” for military deployments to guarantee Ukraine’s security after a peace deal. “We have a clear road map,” von der Leyen told the Financial Times. “This work is going forward very well.” Other European leaders appear to disagree. On Monday, German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius said it was “fundamentally wrong” to discuss troop deployments to Ukrain...| Responsible Statecraft

What’s lost in these stories is how strange and impossible it would've been just a couple years ago to imagine Russia being able to use Belarus as a staging ground for its military offensives. We’ve already forgotten that as recently as 2020, Lukashenko was flirting with NATO partnership, hosting anti-Russia hawks Mike Pompeo and John Bolton, and denying Russia the right to set up an airbase in Belarus (let alone hosting an entire invasion force). Then came the big western-backed regime...| THE EXILED – MANKIND'S ONLY ALTERNATIVE

Sono molte le ragioni per le quali il presidente degli Stati Uniti, Donald Trump, aveva bisogno dell’incontro con l’omologo russo, Vladimir Putin. In primo luogo gli Stati Uniti stanno vivendo una grave crisi di credibilità internazionale: non sono ormai la più grande potenza industriale, sono indebitati in modo devastante con il resto del mondo, vivono su una gigantesca bolla finanziaria, hanno una moneta che, svalutandosi troppo, non è più in grado di rivestire il ruolo di riserva i...| Altreconomia

As the EU steps up its efforts to fund the defence of Europe, Hungary sticks to its policy of undermining those efforts whenever it can. Given that a Member State cannot be expelled from the EU, the Member States should simultaneously withdraw from the EU Treaties under Article 50 TEU and concurrently sign up to new EU Treaties without Hungary. Only this way could the EU effectively stand up to Russia, introduce important Treaty changes, and finally overcome tolerating Putin’s allies withi...| Verfassungsblog
