And to the West, Fico is starting to feel the cold winds. He knows the Druzhba will be repaired shortly, so he hopes to take credit for this. What won't be repaired will be the delivery of Russian crude oil through the Druzhba. That's broken permanently.

Slovakia is prepared to block the adoption of the European Union's 20th sanctions package against Russia until it receives guarantees regarding the restoration of the "Druzhba" pipeline's operation, stated the country's Foreign Minister Juraj Blanár. At the same time, Slovakia does not object to unblocking a 90-billion-euro loan for Ukraine.

This opens both a manpower stream and a possible revenue stream. How much would you pay to sit in your home and knock down Shahed drones?

Putin is scheduled to visit Beijing next month. I wonder what they will talk about?

Orban stacked the Constitutional Courts with loyalists, so that might be a challenge, but Magyar seems to know how to wield his supermajority effectively.
Bingo. With the supermajority in Parliament, everything will change. No one is going to feel like protecting obstructionist judges appointed by Orban. They wouldn't be where they are without dirt and skeletons and will be removed in this fashion.
Here's some examples of that dirt and those skeletons. :lol:

Shaknovsky needs to have a brain scan to explore the possibility of a tumor. If confirmed, it would keep him out of jail.

Wow, watch this video.
Magyar taking no prisoners. He's going to lay waste to Orban's North Korean style television stations and everyone that worked for them.
Take note Murdock.

Magyar has spent the last few days meeting with Orbanistas who lied about him and his family incessantly, blocked him from addressing the nation, and did their utmost to keep him from winning a fair election. From Hungary's president -- who must invite Magyar to form a government before resigning -- to this state TV presenter, he's met them to say: "Hello, here's why you're out of job. Goodbye." Breathtaking.

Yet it can always get worse. Increasing Russian 'commercial opportunities' means cutting the competition -

To make matters even worse, the now near-total block on Telegram has had a catastrophic impact on volunteer fundraising and purchases of equipment, further reducing the supply of drones.
Planned forthcoming curbs on VPNs and cryptocurrency are also likely to impact drone procurement within the army, as many soldiers spend their own salaries on purchasing drones from Chinese suppliers.

Peak Russia - How long before they start charging their owns troops for drones?

The Russian MOD established its Unmanned Systems Forces (BPS) in November 2025. To the concern of many commentators, it appointed Lieutenant Colonel Yuri Vaganov to command the new force, despite his lack of formal military education or prior service experience.
Warblogger Svyatoslav Golikov commented at the time of Vaganov's appointment that his partnership with his apparent patron, Deputy Minister of Defence Alexey Krivoruchko, "is truly about commerce. Not about refining the concept of using unmanned systems in modern warfare."
Romanov says that the Russian MOD's advanced systems directorate, the Department of Advanced Interspecific Research and Special Projects, "will not issue drones to just any unit on the Front."
"Drones will be issued only to BPS troops. Vaganov now personally and exclusively oversees the distribution of drones.
After the start of the artificially created “drone shortage” in regular units
Although he is in principle the equivalent of Ukraine's formidable unmanned systems forces commander Robert 'Madyar' Brovdi, even Russian commentators acknowledge that Vaganov is a poor comparison.
"Not about developing unmanned systems as a cross-cutting technology at the combined arms level. Not about improving combat effectiveness and reducing our casualty rate. It's just about commerce. Trivial and banal. An alternative, excellent analogue response to Madyar."
Although he is in principle the equivalent of Ukraine's formidable unmanned systems forces commander Robert 'Madyar' Brovdi, even Russian commentators acknowledge that Vaganov is a poor comparison.
"During the period of deliveries of the VT-40 FPV and the Groza electronic warfare system to the Front through Krivoruchko, [Vaganov] was churning out utterly substandard products , which resulted in the deaths of our operators, including members of the special forces."
Since his appointment, Romanov says, "instead of building their own forces from scratch (using modern frontline experience), the BPS are trying to poach the best operators and technicians from other units, thereby leaving many critical areas understaffed.

Good news but how it's delivered is interesting. Why did Bessent attend this press conference? Allowing the waiver to expire is a pretty simple statement, no need for expert explanation.
Be careful Scott, you may be next.

Karma is still a bitch. Everything is recorded and idiots can't resist a live microphone. Even Russian idiots...
A self-confessed war criminal takes the easy way out.
Here he's bragged about arresting and dragging to a Russian military prison a shop attendant girl in occupied Zaporizhzhia that was not careful enough and spoke Ukrainian.
His boyfriend looks like he wants a kiss.
The full story.

Even if Putin finally gets Trump to pull out, none of this would change.

Kinetic sanctions doin' work. All those projections of the extra billions Russia is making with the new Iran War prices are using last year's loading data. These kinds of constant disruptions are preventing these projections from becoming reality.
