  • All of this happened under the banner of peace. Throughout 2025, the US Administration actively facilitated negotiations, and reports of “progress” flowed steadily. By early 2026, talks had moved to a trilateral format—itself hailed as an achievement. But beyond the fact of talks happening, there is no visible progress. Russia’s demands remain maximalist. There is no agreed framework for a ceasefire, only vague discussions about monitoring one.

    The pattern is consistent: both rounds of negotiations in Abu Dhabi were accompanied by major Russian strikes on Ukraine’s civilian energy infrastructure. The so-called energy “ceasefire” in early February was a masterclass in Russian deception—no one knew its exact scope, duration, or even start date. This gave Russia the appearance of goodwill for Washington’s benefit without committing to anything. When Putin violated the agreement on 3 February, Trump said Putin “kept his word.”

    tRump and Putin both lie. What I find astounding is why politicians still believe them?



  • As shocking as it may be, Musk blocked Russia’s access to Starlink. Crazy, ik. Who knew the guy would help out Ukraine?

    Two days later, SpaceX CEO and owner of X, Elon Musk, replied on his social network: “Looks like the steps we took to stop the unauthorized use of Starlink by Russia have worked.” Starlink has found a way to disable any terminal moving at a speed greater than 90 km/h on Ukrainian territory. This measure is reportedly already effective against Russian drones, but also – as an unintended consequence – against Ukrainian vehicles equipped with mobile Starlink terminals.
