According to Slovo i Dilo, human rights activists are urging the Verkhovna Rada not to adopt draft law no. 10242, which seeks to strengthen criminal liability for unauthorized interference, sale, or dissemination of information processed in public electronic registries. According to a statement by Amnesty International, this could have serious implications for freedom of speech in Ukraine. Human rights activists […]

Ukrainian MP Oleksandr Dubinsky claimed that the criminal case against him was fabricated on the orders of President Volodymyr Zelensky to cover up his involvement in negotiations with Kremlin dictator Vladimir Putin before and after the 2018 and 2019 presidential elections. According to Censor.NET, a video where Dubinsky discusses this was published on the Dubina TV YouTube channel. Dubinsky alleged […]

They’ve piled up so much nonsense from all sides that it’s hard to sort through it all at once. In Russia, they’ve completely lost their minds (though how much further could they go?) – the mysterious “Rubezh,” the hypersonic “Oreshnik,” claims of no defenses, and a deep crater with groundwater where Yuzhmash once stood… In short, everyone is expected to […]

Another initiative, this time from Erdoğan, fizzled out almost immediately following Peskov’s declaration that the Kremlin won’t agree to a freeze. It’s crucial to understand that this refusal isn’t primarily about geopolitics or Russia’s lust for new territory. They’re facing decline and emptiness even in the territories they already hold. Nor is it solely about the psychological state of the […]

I hesitated about whether to write this, but I will after all. I want to apologize to my unit—I’m not much of a commander. Everyone who knows us is aware that we often handled our own issues, using our own funds. It was simpler, more efficient, and faster that way. Usually, around 60% of the hundred we received would go […]

A working scenario for the near future: D. Trump proposes to halt hostilities along the front line without the return of most of our occupied territories, particularly Crimea and Donbas. Ukraine would have to agree to this since we are entirely dependent on our partners. However, it’s unclear whether Putin would agree to these harsh conditions for Ukraine or if […]

The methods used by the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Oleksandr Syrskyi, to manage the troops cannot hold the front. In an interview with Radio Liberty, the editor-in-chief of Censor.NET, Yuriy Butusov, listed a set of factors influencing the current situation on the front line. Not in order of importance, but in terms of their direct impact on […]

Why is a defense enterprise producing protective gear for Ukrainian soldiers still unable to secure the right to defer its employees? It may surprise you, but Ballistics is still fighting for the right to defer its workforce. Despite producing equipment relied on by hundreds of thousands of defenders, the company lacks essential support, while employees in secondary industries—such as fortune-tellers, […]

New expenses mean either new taxes or new debts. So, what does the “1000 UAH for every citizen” initiative really represent? It is a deception of taxpayers.   It is a trivialization of economic policy.   It is an expression of paternalism, where the state does not trust its people, assuming it knows better what they need.   It’s like […]

Analyzing the strengths and weaknesses of President Zelensky’s “Victory Plan” is absolutely pointless—much like searching for the philosopher’s stone or inventing a perpetual motion machine. This is because the “Plan” was clearly not created for implementation. This is why it deliberately includes points that cannot be realized in the next 10-15 years. Take, for example, the overused point about the […]

At the home of Ukrainian official Tetiana Krupa, the chief physician of a state institution in a small region of Ukraine who sells certificates to men to avoid serving as Ukrainian soldiers, cash in several currencies amounting to $6.5 million was found. This is not the end of it; she has much more money in foreign accounts and real estate. […]

1. The significance of Vuhledar. The defense of Vuhledar was a true feat by Ukrainian soldiers, who for two and a half years inflicted losses on the Russians near Vuhledar that were many times greater than ours and repelled two major offensives in 2022 and 2023. The city held a key position for controlling the southern flank of Ukraine’s defense […]
