This information comes from a commentary by the military expert and director of Defense Express, Valeriy Ryabykh, to the Espreso TV channel on May […]
PrivatBank, acting on orders from the President’s Office, has blocked the accounts of Ai-Petri – the electronic warfare equipment manufacturer for Ukrainian drones. This equipment jams Orlan drones, FPV drones, and can cover up to 20 km of the front line. This is a blow to the Armed Forces of Ukraine, not to the enemy. Sofiia Fedyna: When it seems […]
Putin chose war and issued ultimatums to the world. Putin’s statement: what conclusions should the world draw? For the first time, I want to be heard in the Office of the President of Ukraine. Last night, Putin made a public statement. His vocabulary was pure Soviet KGB-speak — one must know how to read it, and not everyone does. Putin […]
It looks like we might soon witness the emergence of a “European Shield.” Today’s visit to Kyiv is no coincidence. A promising European security alliance is taking shape — potentially as an alternative to NATO. The United Kingdom, Germany, France, Poland, and of course, Ukraine. According to public data for 2025, the combined military spending of France, Germany, Poland, the […]
Without America, the “grandfathers” wouldn’t have just failed to “reach Berlin”—they likely wouldn’t have held the line at the Volga either. And instead of heroic marches with cardboard portraits of “grandfathers” on sticks, there would have been a silent procession holding signs that read “Lend-Lease never arrived.” Instead of fanfares—only the absence of Studebakers that never made it from Murmansk. […]
Alas, the question is getting increasingly pressing. We have actually gotten used to Orban and Fico. But Romania, the Czech Republic, Germany, France and so on are generating their own Orbans. For example, political leaders in Africa are almost completely infected with Orbanism, the main symptoms of which are abnormal respect for Putin as a “defender of the interests of […]
Trump has finally acknowledged that the “good guy” Putin wants to take over all of Ukraine. Putin wants it, and Trump is stopping him, says the President of the United States, who himself wants to conquer Greenland, Canada, and Panama. Meanwhile, China’s leader, Xi Jinping, is eyeing Taiwan and strategically important uninhabited islands in the Pacific Ocean (to start with). […]
This story of heroism and sacrifice of Ukrainian pilot Hennadiy Matulyak, said by his wife Olha Matulyak. “On the night of February 23 to 24, 2022 my husband rushed to duty at the command ‘Alert!’. Early in the morning, around five o’clock, he called me: ‘Olya, they’re shooting!’ I quickly woke up our daughter, and at just four years old, […]
Foreign soldiers defending Ukraine call for legal recognition and justice. Rakhim Kudrat Ogly Babaiev opens up about serving in Ukraine as defender. “Thousands of volunteers who have been standing shoulder to shoulder with Ukrainian citizens for over three years, defending Ukraine from Russian invaders — fighting, getting wounded, and dying — still do not have official status! Hundreds of them […]
Our American friends are trying to scare us—and at the same time Europe and the entire civilized world—with the rapid collapse of Ukraine’s defense unless Ukraine agrees to the terms of the Trump-Putin alliance. Well, that’s clearly cheap blackmail, but let’s try to look at the war from a more rational perspective. First of all, in 2022, contrary to all […]
Did you know that Crimea cost Ukraine (the Ukrainian SSR) nearly $100 billion?200,000 indigenous people were deported, and over 1.5 million Russian-speaking settlers were brought in (including during the occupation period). Those who claim that Crimea was “gifted” to Ukraine forget not only about the thousands of hectares of fertile land taken from Ukraine, but also about the enormous investments […]
Another “ceasefire”… for the sake of war. The latest one-sided “ceasefire” proposed by Vladimir Putin, which he is trying to impose on us in an ultimatum-like manner, smells very bad. This time, he is talking about, essentially, three days of a “ceasefire”… Let me remind you that during the “Easter ceasefire,” the Russians used the opportunity to create conditions for […]
