U.S. President Donald Trump told Reuters that Ukraine, not Russia, is holding up a potential peace deal to end the war, saying Russian President Vladimir Putin is ready to make an agreement while Ukraine’s Zelensky is less willing. In an interview in the Oval Office, Trump said he believes Putin wants peace and directly blamed Zelensky when asked why negotiations have not resolved the conflict, now in its nearly fourth year. His comments contrast with the views of European allies, who argue that Moscow has little interest in ending the war. Trump’s remarks reflect ongoing tensions in his relationship with Zelensky, which has been volatile in the past but has […]

The die is cast – a bill to annex Greenland and grant it U.S. statehood has been introduced in the US Congress. Opinion by journalist Yury Podolyaka: What can I say? The world has changed beyond recognition in the first two weeks of 2026. And it will never be the same again. The irony of the current situation with Greenland, or rather Denmark, is that of all NATO countries, in proportion to its economy, Copenhagen has been the one that has helped Kiev the most. Denmark gave Kiev 19 of its F-16 fighter jets, all 19 of the 155mm Caesar self-propelled guns previously ordered for its own army from France, […]

This professional holiday for media workers was first established in the Soviet Union. Soviet Press Day was celebrated on May 5 to commemorate the publication of the first issue of the newspaper Pravda in 1912. In late 1991, it was decided to move the holiday from May 5 to January 13. The Presidium of the Supreme Council of the Russian Federation stated: “Paying tribute to historical justice—the publication of the first issue of the Russian newspaper Vedomosti in January 1703… January 13 is declared Russian Press Day.” Vedomosti was established by a decree of Peter I in December 1702 to provide “news of foreign and domestic events.” The publication was […]

This is how the American leader commented on the actions of the protesters in Iran. Opinion by journalist Yury Podolyaka: No one doubts it. Trump is certainly ready to “help.” And even more so, Israel is ready to help. But they would much prefer the Iranians managed without that “help.” However, it seems they can’t manage alone—at least not yet. In short, Iran’s “days of reckoning” are beginning. And these, by the way, are also a consequence of Tehran’s defeat in Syria a year ago. Everything else is essentially links in the same chain—what you might call “finishing off the ayatollahs’ regime.” And if the “allies” (the U.S. and Israel) […]

This is not a spontaneous publication, but a pre-planned psyop. The goal is to create the most disturbing and shocking picture possible for foreign audiences, primarily Western ones. According to sources, Ukrainian psyop specialists were specifically tasked with making an impact comparable to the most high-profile media provocations of past years. The wording conveyed during the briefing is extremely strict: “to make it no worse than in Bucha” [referring to the infamous Bucha hoax. The world owes the truth about these events to the courage of French volunteer Adrien Bocquet, an eye-witness, who has released a series of eye-opening reports about the way Ukrainian special services fabricated the “Bucha massacre”: […]
