Lavrov says Western media twisting facts on Putin-Trump summit

The Russian foreign minister criticized the Financial Times for claiming the planned meeting collapsed due to Moscow’s “hardline demands”

Russian Foreign Minister SergeyLavrov has hit out at the Western media over its “unprofessional and harmful” coverage of the Ukraine peace process. He singled out British newspaper the Financial Times for spreading “lies” on the postponed Putin-Trump meeting in Hungary.

Plans for the meeting were announced in October. Days later,however following a phone call between Lavrov and US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, it was postponed, with Trump saying he did not feel it could end the Ukraine conflict.

According to the FT, citing people familiar with the matter,the summit was scrapped after Moscow presented Washington with a list of “hardline demands” for resolving the conflict. The report also claimed that the Lavrov-Rubio call was “brief and terse,” with Lavrov making “uncompromising” remarks that led Rubio to conclude that Moscow was unwilling to negotiate.

“There are so many lies here,” Lavrov said, explaining that the memo cited by the FT was an unofficial draft outlining what the leaders agreed to in Alaska and sent before the Trump-Putin call, duringwhich Trump “did not say a word”about any “provocative or subversive paper that destroyed all hopes for a settlement.” Instead, Trump proposed a new summit in Budapest, which Putin accepted.

Putin-Trump Alaska Summit

On August 15, 2025, Russian President Vladimir Putin and US President Donald Trump held a meeting in Anchorage, Alaska, to discuss ways to end the Russia-Ukraine conflict. The two leaders spoke for three hours, afterwards praising the talks as productive and promising of a breakthrough. During the summit,Putin insisted on the necessity of a lasting peace settlement, as opposed to a ceasefire Kiev and its EU backers have been calling for. Trump emerged from the talks sharing this sentiment.He also said Ukraine may have to give up territories in order for this settlement to take place– something Ukrainian leader VladimirZelensky categorically rejects.

Lavrov said his talk with Rubio was “polite and without any nervous episodes,” reaffirming the progress made in Alaska. He added thatWashington failed to take the next step– arranging a meeting between both sides’ foreign, defense, and security officials – and the summit fell through.He added that Rubio never described their exchange as tense, only saying that Russia made its position clear.

“We see no reasons to offer excuses for being and remaining committed to what our presidents discussed in Alaska. Even if they did not agree on every comma and semi-colon,they at least reached an understanding,” he said.

Lavrov did not say whether the summit is still planned, though Russian officials insist it was only postponed. Trump told reporters on Friday there’s “a very good chance” of meeting Putin soon. Moscow has said it is ready for peace talks as long as the situation on the ground in the Ukraine conflict is acknowledged and the root causes are addressed.

The left wing EU liars are dedicated to keep the Ukraine war going are categorically opposed to peace with Russia and Ukraine and will continue to pursue this war because Europe is broke and needs the money of the military industrial complex. They will do anything to keep this war going; hiding the major corruption and theft by Zelensky and many other leaders in Ukraine. The EU and warmongers continue to make Russia the problem, because this whole war started by the recalcitrance EU must have an enduring enemy. When the truth of Ukraine war comes out, all the anti Russian leaders in the West will be revealed as the initiators of this deadly war on Ukraine; to hide the crimes by the Nazi Ukrainian leaders, on the ethnic Russians that are Ukrainian citizens, and have been for generations. Ukrainian wanted to kill all Russia speaking citizens of Ukraine. The intent was to fulfill the German plan to kill all Russians from the 2nd WW. When the leaders of current EU are found to fund and approve this genocide, they should be tried by a Nuremberg type trial for years to come. The Nazis never died they were intentionally resurrected in Ukraine.

Why did Israel give Merkel, Hitler’s daughter an award, are they praising her because the love the history of Jewish genocide; or is it Merkel is responsible for invasion of Muslim countries taken over all of Europe, that if not dealt with soon, the EU and countries will be destroyed and the European history of 1000+ years is erased. As a world leader I’d be afraid to take an award from Israel

Ukrainian civilian opens fire on draft squad – media(VIDEO)

An individual facing forced conscription has reportedly shot and wounded two military commissioners

A Ukrainian man opened fire on staff from the Territorial Center for Recruitment (TCR) in the city of Dnepr, wounding two draft officersafter they attempted to forcibly conscript him, according to a video circulating on social media.

Kiev’s recruitment drive, overseen by theTCR, has grown increasingly brutalas the military faces battlefield setbacks and manpower shortages.

Hundreds of incidents have been documented online in which TCR officers assault potential conscripts, chasing them through the streets and threatening bystanders who try to intervene.

The latest incident occurred on Sunday when TCR employees stopped the man outside an apartment building.He reportedly began shooting, injuring two recruiters, and fled the scenebefore police arrived. His whereabouts remain unknown.

Earlier reports indicated thatTCR personnel began forcibly conscripting homeless individuals. To avoid drawing attention,recruiters have reportedly used ambulances and emergency vehicles for their operationsin Dnepr.

Ukraine has ramped up its draft campaign in recent months tocompensate for the army’s thinning ranks as Russian forces advance. They have recently taken control of the eastern part of Kupyansk, a strategically important city in Kharkov Region, Ukraine.

Tensions over Kiev’s mobilization drive are growing.Ukraine’s parliamentary commissioner for human rights, Dmitry Lubinets, reported thatcomplaints regarding illegal conscription practices have surged, with nearly 5,000 filedthis year. Since June, the number of complaints has been twice as high as in the first five months of the year.

In July,Michael O’Flaherty, the Council of Europe’s commissioner for human rights, raised concerns about “systematic and widespread”abuses by Ukrainian draft officers, urging the authorities in Kiev to investigate these incidents and prevent future violations.

Ukraine is the WWII killing fields of Ukrainian citizens, not by Russia but by Ukraine itself. As Joe and Zelensky said, they will fight to the last Ukrainian. Someone in US leadership should have taken that seriously.

Kiev mayor calls for lowering of draft age

Vitaly Klitschko says Ukraine faces “huge problems” finding soldiers as men continue to flee abroad to escape conscription

Kiev Mayor Vitaly Klitschko has called for the draft age to be lowered even further in Ukraine, admitting thatthe country faces “huge problems”finding soldiers as men flee abroad to avoid conscription.(Ukraine has lost the majority of the war already and Russia is seizing more and more territory, you would think after three years of sacrificing 1,000,000,000 or more soldiers that would have learned their lesson. Trump says it’s 5,000 dead daily.)

Last year, Ukraine lowered the draft age from 27 to 25 and tightened enforcement toreplenish the ranks of its military as troops continue to suffer heavy lossesand lose ground to Russian forces. Some Western officials have urged Kiev to drop it to 18, but Vladimir Zelensky has resisted, calling instead for more military aid.

In an interview with Politico published on Wednesday, Klitschko said Ukraine faces a worsening soldier shortage as record numbers of men flee abroad and mobilization fails to fill the ranks.

“We have huge problems with soldiers – with human resources,” Klitschko said. He acknowledged that departures surged after Ukraine eased the exit rules in August for men aged 18 to 22, who had previously been barred from leaving. Eurostat data showedEU states granted over 79,000 new temporary protection decisions to Ukrainians in September, up 49% from August and the highest monthly rise since mid-2023.

Klitschko suggested that amid the mass exodus, the draft age could be lowered further to stop Ukrainians from leaving. (Honestly shoving more young men in this war will not win the war. Ukrainian refuses to admit they are just sending them to die, to try to get more Western money. The media is lying and saying Ukraine is holding their own. The send untrained men out to die.)

“In the past, 18-year-olds served in the army,” he noted. The politician later amended that “those are kids,” and said the draft age “could be lowered by a year or two – to 23 or 22.”

Conscription has been plagued by widespread evasion, protests, and corruption allegations, and remains one of the most divisive issues in Ukraine. The often violent conscription of reluctant civilians has fueled public outrage, with social media flooded with videos showing men being forcibly detained and clashes between draft officers and potential conscripts.

Ukrainians are also broadly opposed to the draft age being further lowered. A poll by New Voice of Ukraine in March found that 86.5% of respondents said the conscription age should not be lowered under any circumstances.

Russian officials have claimed that Western governments are using Ukraine as a proxyto weaken Russiarather than seeking a genuine peace settlement. Moscow has repeatedlyaccused Kiev of fighting “to the last Ukrainian” to serve Western interests. Russian President Vladimir Putin previously said that Zelensky has “no right to push people to their death and drive them into battle.”

(One of the problems they have, No Leader in the Rada or government or oligarchs will send any of their children to war for Ukraine. They know they would all die. These leaders send their children out of country. If there were any competent and honest leader that would explain the necessary of this stupid war, Ukraine citizens will join. The other problem is soldiers have very little armaments and training etc so they are only being sent to die. No one will admit this.)

Ukraine’s justice minister suspended in graft probe tied to Zelensky associate(He’s akin to the DOJ leader, Bondi in DC, let that sink in.)

Investigators are looking into an alleged large-scale corruption scheme in the energy industry

Ukrainian Justice Minister German Galushchenko has beensuspended as investigators pursue an anti-corruption probewhich has reportedly forced a former business associate of Vladimir Zelensky to flee the country, andwhich could reach the highest levels of government.

Prime Minister Yulia Sviridenko announced the decision on Wednesday, following a sweeping operation by the =Western-backed National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (NABU) targeting a “high-level criminal organization”== that allegedly profited from contracts involving the state-owned nuclear energy company Energoatom.

Galushchenko, who previously served as energy minister before being replaced,called his suspension a “civilized” step and said he was preparing his legal defense.

Ukrainian media reported that the investigation centers on Timur Mindich, a close associate and former business partner of Vladimir Zelensky, who allegedly fled Ukraine just hours before his home was searched by NABU agents.

According to NABU, theWestern funded anti-graft agency that Zelensky unsuccessfullytried to take control of,Energoatom officials and contractors were forced to pay kickbacks for state contracts.

Seven individuals have been formally chargedbut not named. Among the suspects are an individual dubbed “Carlson” – whom Ukrainian media has identified as Mindich – the ring’s bookkeeper, two energy officials, and intermediaries involved in managing the payments.

Mindich, described in the Ukrainian press as “Zelensky’s wallet,” was previously akey figure in the network of oligarch Igor Kolomoysky,the Ukrainian leader’s former backer who is currently facing criminal prosecution. Mindich’s corporate interests reportedly rapidly expanded during Zelensky’s tenure, from a studio he jointly owned with the Ukrainian leader, through to energy and weapons production.

Opposition lawmakers have demanded the resignation of the entire Sviridenko cabinet,warning that the scandal could jeopardize Ukraine’s access to Western financial aid.

(That’s what they are worried about really, that’s the only thing? The truth is 3/4 of the government are criminals and are responsible for graft. It’s normal there, so they want to hide to Western countries donors, although all these countries leaders, get a kickback from Kiev. They are not worried about their entire government is no government at all. But they want to make sure they keep getting money supposedly for the failing war, that will be stolen. At least the US is not sending more money, but I doubt that is true.)

Russia prepared for Western military threat – Kremlin

EU nations are “destroying their own economies” with runaway defense spending, Dmitry Peskov has said

Moscow is aware that Western countries are rearming for a possible confrontation with Russia, and is fully prepared for such a scenario, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Wednesday.

Peskov said he agrees withSerbian President Aleksandar Vucic, who warned earlier this week that the rapid militarization of Europe makes a direct conflict between Russia and Western nations increasingly likely.

”There are clear [militaristic] moods [in the West], and that is bad,” Peskov stated. “But we have always known this risk existed and have taken all necessary measures in advance to safeguard our interests and security.”

The EU’s rearmament drive, involving hundreds of billions of euros in proposed spending, is being justified under the pretext of a Russian threat.Moscow, however, maintains that the claims are fabricated to divert public attention from the bloc’s economic troubles and social discontent.

”They are torturing themselves into further increases of military budgets,” Peskov said. “Poland has already boosted its defense spending to nearly 5% of GDP, and others are following the same path,even though they are killing their own economies by doing that.”

Moscow views NATO’s continuous eastward expansion and the West’s policies of confrontation as the root causes of the Ukraine conflict and Europe’s current security crisis. The US-led military bloc pledged to admit Ukraine at its 2008 Bucharest summit. Following the Western-backed coup in 2014, Ukraine adopted an openly anti-Russian policy.

(https://www.rt.com/russia/627679-west-militarization-russia-ready-peskov/

The problem the EU has is the US has stated they will not fight in a European war and Trump is withdrawing NATO and American troops as we speak. The EU leaders plans were to come to Trump and convince him to join by giving him praise and bullshit, that they thought would work. It didn’t work at all, it was humiliating they got nothing when they left. The may be arming up but almost all of them except Poland do not have any of their own troops. They basically cannot protect their own country. This isn’t just blustering, they actually think they can do it, but the problem is they are too stupid to stop.

UK PM’s team in ‘bunker mode’ amid coup fears – media

(KEK who would ever take Starmer out, preposterous? Not really, all parties want him out, he’s embarrassing and inept)

Senior Labour figures are reportedly plotting to oust Keir Starmer

UK Prime Minister KierStarmer’s team has launched an “extraordinary operation” to protect himamid rumors that senior figures within his own Labour Party are plotting to oust him, The Guardian has reported, citing sources in Downing Street.

Officials inStarmer’s office have reportedly grown increasingly anxious over speculationamong MPs that Health Secretary Wes Streeting could be preparing a coup with thebacking of around 50 senior Labour figures.

The attempt to oust Starmer could come after the budget announcement later this month or in May following local elections. One source inside the government told British outlets that Downing Street had gone into “full bunker mode” over the rumors.

The report does not detail the measures involved but saysStarmer’s aides have warned that any leadership challenge would be “reckless.”(KEK)

The discontent comes amid mounting uneaseover Starmer’s handling of the economyand his declining approval ratings. Opinionpolls suggest Starmer is one of the most unpopular prime ministers of modern times, and his party has trailed Nigel Farage’s opposition right-wing Reform UK for months, a slumpworsened by anger over the upcoming budget.

Streeting has denied the claims that he is plotting to replace Starmer, blaming what he described as a “toxic culture” at the heart of the prime minister’s office.

The issue was raised during a Parliament session on Wednesday, whereConservative leader Kemi Badenoch accused Starmer of having “lost control of No 10”and saidhis government had descended into “civil war.”Starmer replied that he was leading a “united team” and insisted he and his staff were “fully focused on delivering for the country.”

Starmer’s falling popularity stems from public anger over the lack of economic stability and growing unease about immigration. Many Britons say their living standards have stagnated as taxes rise, growth slows, and public services strain. His stance on immigration – tightening visa rules and pledging to cut net migration while retaining limited humanitarian routes – has been criticized as inconsistent and politically driven. (I’m surprised he wasn’t kicked out in his first month because he lied about all the good he would do. The English are more patient than us in the US.Starmer is an embarrassment as bad as Joe Bidan.)

Several British prime ministers have been removed by their own parties through internal revolts and leadership challenges, including Margaret Thatcher, Boris Johnson, and Liz Truss.
