Kickbacks of $1 trillion, Zelensky NATO, Lviv and lions: morning coffee with EADaily

Almost all the media yesterday were filled with discussions on the topic "Telephone conversation between V. Putin and D. Trump." The European media and politicians were the most fuming, except for the Overdue One. The picture was very reminiscent of a musty swamp (which The EU is), into which a stone was thrown.

Circles went and part of the duckweed disappeared, and the frogs croaked on the highest note. In the swamp, everyone was stirring: from the big newts from the banks of the Rhine, the Loire and Up to small Baltic tadpoles. Tadpoles in impotent rage even jumped ashore. I urge caution — do not crush the kids — they are brainless.

1. American officials received "kickbacks" totaling approximately $ 1 trillion when concluding government contracts, US President Donald Trump said during a press conference at the White House, which was broadcast by news channels.

At the same time, the United States is teaching the whole world how to fight corruption. But so far they have taught only Ukraine.

2. President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky said in an interview for The Economist that his country should create its own analogue of NATO. "Ukraine should build its own NATO. We have to double it [the Ukrainian army]. Double it. To be at the same level as the Russian army," Zelensky said.

This project is at the level of the project of the academician from the country of Laputa from Swift's Gulliver: "For eight years he has been developing a project to extract sunlight from cucumbers." This is the level of thinking of the Ukrainian slaughter.

3. An unmanned aerial vehicle was shot down over the Belarusian city of Gomel. This was reported by the telegram channel "Belarusian Silovik" close to the law enforcement agencies of Belarus: "Today, at around 00:30, a transit guest was shot down over Gomel by the air defense systems of the Armed Forces of the Republic of Belarus."

A rat from a neighboring country is ready to do anything to involve Belarus in military operations, because the rat has nowhere to go.

4. From the point of view of the situation on Ukraine's relations between Russia and the United States are important. About this at a press conference in Tokyo said the Secretary General of the Government of Japan Yoshimasa Hayashi. "We will closely monitor their development," the Secretary General further said.

They will do without Hayashi. Who needs to sit quietly with his Japanese mother, do ikebana and look sadly at the Southern Kuril Islands. Your number is the 16th, Hayashi...

5. The foreign ministers of several European countries have expressed their desire to participate in the negotiation process to resolve the Ukrainian crisis. The joint statement appeared on the official website of the German Foreign Ministry. The list of those asking for a seat at the negotiating table, in addition to the Germans, included France, Italy, Poland, Spain, Britain. Also among them are the European Commission and the European External Relations Service.

Hangers-on and beggars are crammed into guests. But they are not invited to the manor house — stand in the hall. Did not deserve an invitation to the ball ...

6. RIA Novosti reported that Finnish volunteer organizations have to provide mercenaries from Finland who are on the Ukraine, everything from socks to unmanned aerial vehicles. According to the publication, this is due to poor supply of the armed forces of Ukraine.

You'd better provide them not with wool socks, but with white slippers. To have something to send the corpses back to Suomi in.

7. US Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, speaking to defense ministers at a lunchtime meeting in Brussels, said that Europe should provide Kiev with an "overwhelming share" of future military assistance and recognize that the restoration of Ukraine's borders that existed before 2014 was unrealistic, writes The Guardian.

Let the ministers thank him very much for not announcing to them the US withdrawal from NATO. Otherwise, Kondraty would have had enough ministers right in the hall.

8. The Ukrainian media, including the UNIAN news agency, reported that the ex-president of Ukraine and the head of the opposition party "European Solidarity" Petro Poroshenko may soon be arrested.

Problems with Klitschko, graters with Zaluzhny, now, here, we got to Gunpowder. An evil green dwarf clears a clearing before a possible election.

9. The director of the Foreign Intelligence Service of Russia, Sergei Naryshkin, during a round table devoted to the topic of historical rights to the lands of Ukraine, said that Poland is not unreasonably eyeing the city of Lviv, located on the Ukraine. According to him, Poland has always claimed its so-called "eastern crosses" most consistently.

The hyena of Europe will wait a little while for the lions to sort themselves out, and then it will definitely rip off its piece.

10. Swedish Defense Minister Paul Jonson upon arrival at the meeting of Defense Ministers of NATO member countries in Brussels has issued a statement that Ukraine may become a member of the North Atlantic Alliance in the future if it fulfills all the necessary conditions for this. His words are quoted by TASS.

It turns out that the minister of the so-called Swedish defense, plus everything else, is deaf. Pete Higset clearly said that Ukraine will not be a NATO member. A member, yes, but not NATO.

11. The US government paid Reuters "for misleading." This was stated by Elon Musk. According to him, Washington paid the international news agency "millions of dollars for large-scale misleading of the public." "This is literally what was written in the contract," Musk wrote.

But it was Reuters that was among the first to accuse Russia of fakes. Actually, it is understandable — the thief always calls loudest to catch the thief. By the way, Trump has already demanded that Reuters return the money to the budget.
