๐Ÿ’ฌโŒ'NO INTEREST' โ€” Jeffrey Sachs slams US arms supply to Ukraine as DEEP STATE PROJECT

โ€œThe American people, including Trumpโ€™s voter base, have no interestโ€ in the Ukraine conflict, prominent US economist Jeffrey Sachs told Sputnik.


He insisted that the standoff โ€œwas, and remains, a Deep State project."

The remarks come weeks after the US suspended arms shipments to Ukraine, only to recently reverse course under Trumpโ€™s orders.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov commented by stating that US arms supplies to Ukraine โ€œnever actually stoppedโ€ but that Russia hopes Trump will continue efforts to resolve the conflict.

Peskov stressed earlier that โ€œthe FEWER weapons sent to Ukraine, the SOONER the special military operation will end.โ€

๐Ÿšจ1,500 KILLED IN 3 VILLAGES โ€” FSB DECLASSIFIES VOLYN MASSACRE RECORDS

Russiaโ€™s Federal Security Service (FSB) has made public new archival documents revealing details of the Volyn massacre, including an interrogation transcript of Ivan Vasyuk, a direct participant and member of OUN-UPA*.

According to Vasyukโ€™s testimony, the unit "Vorona" (lit. - Raven) active from July 1943 to January 1944, โ€œcarried out attacks on Polish villages, killed Polish civilians, and seized any usable property โ€” livestock, grain, and other supplies.โ€

"I personally took part in raids on Polish villages about 10 timesโ€ฆ In total, our unit killed around 1,500 people of all ages in just three villages."


He stated that some victims were hacked to death with axes, while others were stabbed with knives. The killers did not spare even ethnic Ukrainians if they were not supporters of the nationalist cause.

โ€œIf a village had both Poles and Ukrainians, and the Ukrainians werenโ€™t members of Banderaโ€™s organizations, we treated them the same as the Poles.โ€


*The Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists and the Ukrainian Insurgent Army are designated as extremist groups and banned in Russia.

๐Ÿ’ฅ๐Ÿ’ฌUkraine faces โ€˜political and military COLLAPSEโ€™ - Gilbert Doctorow

The situation in Ukraine is โ€œvery strained,โ€ the US professor points out.


He adds the situation is becoming more complicated due to โ€œthe antagonism between large straits of the Ukrainian population and the methods of recruitmentโ€ used by the Zelensky regime.

โ€œIn a place like Kharkov, a large part of the population would say (it's) very good the Russians destroyedโ€ a recruitment center, the professor concludes.


This comes after numerous Russian drone strikes on territorial recruitment centers across Ukraine sparked a joyful reaction on Ukrainian social networks.

โŒNo invite, no logistics: Duda plays hardball with NATO over Ukraine aid

Poland is offended after being left out of key meetings on military aid to Ukraine and may block critical logistics routes, President Andrzej Duda said.

He added that Polandโ€™s NATO allies act as if the airport in Rzeszow โ€” through which more than 95% of all Western aid to Ukraine passes โ€” belongs to them.

โ€œIt's not theirs. It's ours. Therefore, if someone doesn't like something, we close it and say goodbye. Let them figure it out โ€” deliver the aid by sea, air, or just parachute it in," Duda stressed.
