US President Donald Trump has drastically changed his stance on Ukraine because he respects winners, says Kyrylo Budanov, head of the Office of the President of Ukraine, in an exclusive interview with RBC-Ukraine.
His theory of the American President is almost aphoristic: Trump, like "everyone in the world," loves winners and has no patience for those who lose. The task in front of Ukraine, then, is not persuasion but performance — proving results on the battlefield rather than showcasing them. "Not showing it — actually having it," he says.

Ukraine’s successful intermediate- and long-range strike campaigns have forced a reckoning within the Russian ultranationalist information space, causing commentators to blame the Russian federal government for failing to create a cohesive air defense system that can adequately protect private businesses and critical infrastructure from Ukrainian long-range strikes.
A prominent Russian milblogger and propagandist published a long appeal to Telegram on July 7 calling for the Russian Ministry of Defense (MoD) to create a unified operational headquarters for civil drone defense to prevent Ukrainian forces from identifying and striking weak points in the Russian rear.[13] The milblogger claimed that Russian air defenses are in disarray as the Russian military and Rosgvardia (Russia’s heavily militarized internal security force) are operating air defenses in different federal subjects (regions) while private businesses are also investing in counter-drone systems, but there is no unified actor monitoring drones mid-air or establishing a multi-echeloned air defense across Russia. A Kremlin-affiliated milblogger criticized the Russian government on July 7 for pushing air defense responsibilities on Russian businesses and civilian structures, even though private entities lack the capacity and manpower to effectively defend against Ukrainian strikes.[14]

Three days, 21 ships: Russia’s Azov Sea fuel run to occupied Crimea is turning into a shooting gallery
Ukraine’s drone forces say 19 sanctioned tankers, a cargo ship, and a ferry in occupied Kerch have all been hit since the maritime operation began on 6 July. Videos confirm strikes.

The operation began on 6 July. Over its first two nights, Ukrainian drones hit 12 tankers hauling gasoline across the Azov Sea toward the occupied peninsula.
50 energy nodes cut in eight days
The same night, drone crews hit 53 military targets in the operational depth of occupied Crimea and the occupied south, Brovdi said. Six more electrical substations went dark under the "Crimean switch-off" pool — exactly 50 energy nodes hit between 1 and 8 July. Other "sensitive objects" were hit too, with a full report to follow, the commander said.

An important blow to U.S. prestige and influence has been Trump’s failure to deliver Ukraine to Vladimir Putin. Make no mistake: everyone knows that Trump, JD Vance and company expected that their betrayal of Ukraine would lead to Russian victory. Surely, Ukraine would be unable to hold off the onslaught from its much bigger neighbor without U.S. aid. To America’s everlasting shame, Trump told Volodymyr Zelenskyy that he didn’t “have the cards.”
Yet after Trump cut U.S. aid to Ukraine by 99 percent, Ukraine not only survived but began gaining the upper hand. And Ukrainian military innovation has largely made up for the loss of American weapons. https://www.kielinstitut.de/publications/europe-steps-up-ukraine-suppo
rt-after-four-years-of-war-19486/
The result has been to make the U.S. increasingly irrelevant. Ukraine has taught foreign governments that they don’t need American support.

Question. Is military summary a Russian propaganda outlet
"Short answer: Military Summary is widely assessed by independent researchers and OSINT communities as a pro-Russian, pro-Belarusian propaganda outlet, though it is not officially part of the Russian state media system.
Military Summary is generally considered a pro-Russian, pro-Belarusian source, rather than an official Russian state media outlet. While it is not directly run by the Russian government, it often amplifies narratives that align with the Kremlin's messaging. Many observers in the OSINT and independent research communities note that the channel frequently uses themes and framing consistent with Russian and Belarusian state propaganda.
In summary, *Military Summary* can be seen as part of a broader ecosystem of unofficial pro-Russian voices, even though it is not officially part of the Russian state media network."
"Russian propaganda also uses ethno-nationalist framing, dehumanization, and anti-Ukrainian tropes, which many observers note appear frequently in Military Summary’s commentary style."
OSINT Community Definition
In the U.S. Intelligence Community (IC) context, the OSINT community refers to the collective of professionals, analysts, and support personnel who produce, use, and share Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT) to address specific intelligence priorities, requirements, or gaps.
I am so laughing here. I'm curious how you'll handle this information. Probably like you handle zerohedge. Deny deny deny, because we both know you already know this.
Another good example of why, when you argue with me, you wind up sliding back under the rock from whence you came; comrade.

How'd I do signym?
TERRIBLE!
You still don't "get it", do you?
OK, ONE MORE TIME:
Finding a "source" where "somebody says" what you want to hear is no good. Those "sources" are a dime a dozen, and if they're from an "authority" they're usually propaganda.
Do they have EVIDENCE to back up what they say?
Have you been able to refute the dozen or so videos of flag-waving Russians all thru Konstantinovka? Have you even looked at them?
No, OF COURSE NOT.
If you did, reality might cause cognitive dissonance
Now, I have watched Military Summary EXTENSIVELY. And I think* that Dima is actually PRO UKRAINIAN. He celebrates Ukrainian victories and agonizes over significant Ukrainian losses. Until recently, he repeated Kiev's claims WITHOUT QUESTION. It's easy to know where his heart lies.
BUT, he tries to be objective, and he follows strict rules before adjusting his map. And those rules require VIDEO EVIDENCE that one side or another has moved the frontline, and VIDEO EVIDENCE or satellite pictures about strikes. And bc Ukraine was using FPV drones extensively, there's all kinds of video from that side.
Ignore his projections about which side is going to do what. He changes that from one video to the next. Ignore his clickbait titles. Just pay attention to what he does best:
Mapping, with videos.
PS:* Stop getting your opinions from some authority figure. You ARE allowed to form your own, yanno!
And I have a lot more things to do than waste my time. So I'm gonna slide under a rock again!

It is amazing and depressing how often Trump has ridden to Putin's aid since becoming President. Just some of his actions include:
1) Cutting off all US military and economic aid for Ukraine
2) Slow walking vital military sales to Ukraine
3) Rehabilitating Putin by inviting him to the USA
4) Trying to bully Ukraine into handing over more of its territory and people to Ukraine
5) Relaxing sanctions on Belarus
6) Starving Ukraine of Patriot missiles leaving Ukraine vulnerable
7) Driving up the price of oil for months when Russia desperately needed money
It is a Russian wish list which the USA has fulfilled. The US is an enemy of freedom and democracy in Europe.

'Make them yourself': Trump gives Zelensky green light to produce Patriot missiles

Editor's note: This is a developing story and is being updated.
U.S. President Donald Trump said on July 8 that he will grant Ukraine its longstanding request to produce American Patriot missiles, the West's only tool capable of stopping Russian ballistic missile attacks.
While Trump later expressed confidence that Ukraine could produce the missiles quickly, he also said he had not coordinated with the manufacturer, Lockheed Martin, ahead of the announcement.

Russian joke
A Russian man is waiting in line at the gas station.
"I've had enough," he tells his wife. "Stay in line, I'm going to shoot Putin."
After two hours, he returns and gets back behind the wheel.
His wife asks him, "Did you shoot him?"
And the man replies: "No, the line to shoot Putin is even longer than the one for gas!"
