Almost 70% of Ukrainians want to see end of war through negotiations as soon as possible – Gallup survey A new Gallup poll conducted between 1 and 14 July 2025 has indicated that 69% of Ukrainians want the war to end through negotiations as soon as possible. Only 24% of respondents expressed support for continuing the fight until victory. The findings mark a near-complete reversal of public opinion compared to 2022, when 73% of Ukrainians wanted the country to fight until victory, while just 22% favoured a negotiated settlement.

Intet annet ville gjort MAGA mer happy, men det kommer nok ikke til å skje.

Massive Russian drone attack on the border with Romania, F-16 planes raised in the air Russia attacked Ukraine with drones near the Romanian border last night, prompting the General Inspectorate for Emergency Situations to send a RO-Alert message to the northern part of Tulcea County, warning the population of the possibility of falling objects from the airspace. The Romanian army has erected two F-16s in the air. Zelenskyy accuses Russia of attacking gas plant on Romanian border to weaken Ukraine's preparations for winter Russia has attacked a gas plant in the Odesa region in southern Ukraine to weaken preparations for the winter season, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Wednesday. He said the gas infrastructure was attacked in the village of Novosilske, on the border with Romania, where the Orlovka interconnection pipeline is located, through which Ukraine receives gas on the trans-Balkan route. Sett fra Romania

I dag er det ett år siden Ukraina gikk inn i Kursk.

'Food shortage is coming' — experts warn Russia's war on inflation risks Soviet-style economy collapse Amid worsening inflation, Russia is preparing to cap prices on staple food items, a move analysts say signals a shift toward a command economy that could trigger shortages, long queues, and public discontent. The draft law, currently under discussion with food producers, is expected to come into force on Mar. 1, 2026, according to the publication. "Russia is now shifting toward a fully planned, command-style system, with all its usual flaws — constant food shortages, long queues, and everything else that comes with it," said Igor Lipsits, a Russian-born economist. Under the proposed measures, 80–90% of food production would be sold through long-term contracts at fixed prices, or within government-mandated price ranges. "After 30 years of market economy, the Russian government is starting to return to price planning — the kind we saw in the Soviet Union"..

Kanskje litt tidlig for krigsindoktrinering?

Over half of Germans would not fight for their country In a survey carried out for RND, a German broadcaster, 59% of respondents said they were “probably” or “definitely” unwilling to defend the country from an attack. Only 16% of Germans were “definitely” willing to take up arms to defend Germany, while 22% said they would “probably” do it.

Budanov outlines four war scenarios, says turning back to Russia isn’t an option Chief of Ukraine’s Defense Intelligence Kyrylo Budanov rejected the so-called Georgian scenario for Ukraine.. He also commented on a recent analysis by JPMorgan Chase, which outlined four potential scenarios for how the war in Ukraine might end. “Obviously, the Belarusian and Georgian scenarios are unlikely to satisfy our society,” Budanov said. “The Israeli or South Korean models are probably better, but even those remain up for debate.” De fire forskjellige potensielle scenarioene fra JPM er omtalt f.eks. her eller her. The best-case scenario, termed South Korea (15% probability), assumes that Zelenskyy will not gain NATO membership or the full return of Ukraine’s lost territories. Nonetheless, Ukraine will have European deterrent forces backed by American security guarantees. In the Israel scenario (20% probability), Ukraine will receive strong military and economic support without a significant presence of foreign forces. This will enable the state to act as a resilient fortress with its own deterrent capabilities. The Georgia scenario (50% probability) predicts that Ukraine will endure a prolonged period of instability, sluggish economic development, decreased international aid, and diminished chances for full membership in Western alliances, leading to a “gradual return to the Russian Federation’s orbit.” In the worst-case scenario, Belarus (15% probability), the US will stop supporting Ukraine or be perceived as having abandoned it, while Russia will remain resolute in its maximalist demands for Ukraine’s total surrender, relegating the country to Moscow’s vassal state

Jepp. Ungarn var vel et av de landene som fikk store menger energi fra Russland. Er også derfor de har vært en bremsekloss for nye EU sanksjoner da de har krevd garantier på energileveringer.

Lokalbefolkningen, mange kvinner, i Vinnytsia er ikke veldig fornøyd med at vervingsfolka har fraktet drøyt 100 mobilserte inn på et lokalt stadionannlegg, og prøver å befri de. Burde ikke kvinner også egentlig vært en del av mobiliseringen? https://t.me/s/Sanek_Kharkiv/31353 https://www.instagram.com/online_vinn/reel/DM1b9peoJo4/

Maria Berlinska called the loss of Ukraine and the date when the enemy can again stand near Kiev Maria Berlinska, Head of the Air Reconnaissance Support Center and the Technological Project (and a veteran advocating for U.S. arms support for Ukraine) .. named her assessments of Ukraine's losses in the war and said that in the absence of changes, Russian troops will again stand near Kyiv this winter. According to her estimates, Ukraine's losses at the front are: dead — up to 300 per day; injured — up to 750 per day; those who left the military unit - up to 500 per day; approximately for the day — 1550; approximately for a month — 46 500; mobilized — up to 20 000. "So we go to minus 26 500 per month. Minus 318 000 per year. Even if this figure is divided into two at once (the lungs returned, some of the SPC, too) there will still be an impressive figure. Minus 159 000 per year," the volunteer's calculations indicate. Kanskje litt pessimistisk, men er uansett ikke noen tvil om at de har et problem med dessterteringer / de som ikke møter opp igjen etter gyldig fravær.

Det kan vel diskuteres.. Å sende militært utstyr ut av landet gjør lite med norsk beredskap og sikkerhet - som tross alt handler om MER enn kun en tenkt angrep fra Russland.

Jada, kjenner historien rundt Strana og ukrainske myndigheter. Regner også med du kjenner til all gjentagende kritikk mot Ukrainas håndtering av det - og andre journalister, pressen, osv? (er ikke en gang mer enn et par-tre uker siden de fikk kritikk om det i en EU rapport vedr. menneskerettigheter) Ingen betenkeligheter med saken du viser til nei. Saken er omtrent utelukkende basert på Facebook innlegget til Daria Kaleniuk. Betyr det at du mener hun er en "russisk kilde"..? Bør vesten kutte finansieringen til anti-korrupsjonssenteret hennes? Eller betyr det at du mener Strana er en "russisk kilde" som ønsker å så tvil om Ukraina Yermak fordi de omtaler innlegget hennes? Hva tenker du f.eks. om FT som skriver "Zelenskyy accused of authoritarian slide" basert på Shabunin's uttalelser. Ønsker FT eller Shabunin også å så tvil om Ukraina?

Er nok åpenbart en jevn levering så fort som de får produsert, men fordelingen ut over det gjenstår jo å se.. Oppgis heller ikke noe om hvor mange hvert land har bestilt. Men egentlig oppfatter jeg dette mest som et påfyll til lagrene for land som allerede bruker de, og ønsker å bruke de (ala Ungarn?).. Vet ikke hvor mange missiler man får med $3.5B, Norge og Danmark bestille jo 384 stk for ett år siden til ca $2.2B. Om noen land, etter godkjennelese fra USA, kommer til å gi noen av sine videre til Ukraina gjenstår jo å se. Hvordan bestillerlandene bokfører dette er sikkert opp til de selv, men det gjør jo lite for deres egen beredeskap å bestille nytt ytstyr og gi bort til andre, selv om det oppfyller budsjettkravet.

Germany to send more US air defences to Ukraine Germany is to help equip Ukraine with additional US Patriot air defence batteries within two to three months while providing extra launchers in the coming days. German defence minister Boris Pistorius said on Friday his government had reached a deal with Washington to backfill its own supply of air defences and rise to the top of the US production queue. In July alone, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on Friday, Russia fired more than 5,100 glide bombs against Ukraine, more than 3,800 Iranian-designed Shahed suicide drones and nearly 260 missiles of various types — 128 of them ballistic.

Pentagon orders AMRAAM missiles from Raytheon, Ukraine is among recipients US defence contractor Raytheon has been awarded a contract worth up to US$3.5 billion to produce AMRAAM medium-range air-to-air missiles. Ukraine is among the recipients. Deliveries will be made under the Foreign Military Sales (FMS) programme and will include Ukraine as well as Belgium, Japan, the Netherlands, Canada, Finland, Germany, Hungary, Spain, Poland, Sweden, Taiwan, Lithuania, the United Kingdom, Australia, Switzerland, Israel, and Kuwait. Production will take place in Tucson, Arizona, and is expected to be completed by the third quarter of fiscal year 2031. Here we go!

Exclusive: Indian state refiners pause Russian oil purchases, sources say Indian state refiners have stopped buying Russian oil in the past week as discounts narrowed this month and U.S. President Donald Trump warned against purchasing oil from Moscow, industry sources said. India, the world's third-largest oil importer, is the biggest buyer of seaborne Russian crude. The four refiners regularly buy Russian oil on a delivered basis and have turned to spot markets for replacement supply - mostly Middle Eastern grades such as Abu Dhabi's Murban crude and West African oil, sources said.

Noen relevante eksempler? Hvordan kommer du frem til det? Antar du har skummet gjennom overskrifter på forsiden og kanskje noen artikler? Hva synes du forresten om andre sider som linker til de? Hvorfor skulle respektable outlets bruke noe prorussisk oppgulp som kilde?

Artikkelen refererer omtrent utelukkende til Daria Kaleniuk's FB artikkel, som er leder for anti-korrupsjonssenteret i Kyiv (en watchdog). At medier som skriver om Ukraina skriver kritisk om Yermak er vel ikke noe nytt? Vet heller ikke om du har fått med deg at det har vært store og små demonstrasjoner i flere byer i Ukraina de siste 9 sammenhengende dagene. De har stort sett protestert gjerne mot to ting; den konkrete loven som fratok NABU/SAPO uavhengighet , og Yermak. "Fuck Yermak!", "Yermak out!". De protesterer ikke mot Zelenskyy, kun stabssjefen hans. Hvorfor tror du de protesterer mot Yermak? Hva med deg selv, hva synes du om Yermak? Noen kritikk å komme med eller bare lovord?

Det er nok flere grunner til dette. Zelenskyy har sagt han ønsker å kjøpe våpen for $50B fra USA, hvorav $15B på Patrioter.. usikker på kun missiler, hvor mange han ønsker å kjøpe av disse. Noe av problemet er at de ikke har penger (men har sagt "vi skal finne pengene"), et annet problem er leveringstiden og et tredje problem er nok godkjenningsprosesser.. Vet heller ikke hvor mange missiler produsentene har liggende på lager. Det er ganske beskjedent hva Trump kan tappe fra sitt eget militære ($100M), og USA prioriterer eget og NATOs behov først. Det gjør leveringen ganske mye enklere dersom andre NATO land kommer på banen og står for kjøpet, pluss at indirekte leveranser gjør USA litt mindre innvolvert enn direkte leveranser.
