Next year — at the end of the year or the beginning of 2028 — we will receive the first F-35, the most advanced aircraft in the history of this planet, which will give entirely new capabilities to our air force.

We will have an air force with 200 ultra-modern fighter jets.

One of the strongest air forces in Europe.

He says he personally took a course in the UAE city of Al Ain, in the Ghiathy area, with Emirati trainers, and that drones, officer training, and even treatment for wounded fighters all flow from the UAE through transit airports in Chad (N'Djamena), Libya (Al-Jufra and Benghazi), and Somalia.

He concluded:

We are all against the Emirati-Zionist project to dismantle Sudan into mini-states.

The system — built on platforms like Palantir's Maven — standardizes massive data flows, maps relationship networks, and flags "threat profiles" in seconds, a job that once took weeks.

The U.S. has pressured Argentina and Chile to halt two Chinese telescope projects in the Andes, worried they could be used to track U.S. satellites or communicate with Chinese ones.

The campaign began under Biden and intensified under Trump, framed as an updated Monroe Doctrine to counter China's growing footprint in Latin America.

Argentine President Javier Milei, backed by a $20 billion U.S. lifeline before last year's midterms, has cooled his earlier warmth toward Beijing, though China remains deeply entwined with Argentina's economy through trade, mining, and infrastructure.

A new U.S.-Argentina trade agreement even includes language limiting Argentina's space cooperation with other countries.

China calls the U.S. position "ridiculous" and accuses Washington of "hegemonism," noting the U.S. operates its own telescopes in the region.

We are dealing with people that have a certain power. It’s very interesting — they make a deal and they break it.

We will get Iran’s enriched uranium at some point, whenever we want.

We have it surveilled. I did a thing called Space Force, and they are watching that area. If somebody walked in, they can tell you his name, his address, and the number of his badge.

If anybody gets near the place, we will know about it, and we’ll blow him up.

The war with Iran is not over because there is still enriched uranium that has to be taken out of Iran.

There are still enrichment sites that need to be dismantled. There are still proxies that Iran supports and ballistic missiles that they want to produce.

We degraded a lot of it, but there is work to be done.

Dropped by helicopter into Nova Kakhovka and later trapped at the Antonivskyi Bridge, his battalion's commander called in Bayraktar TB2 UCAV support.

Damaskin recalled escaping at night under the watchful lights of the drone overhead:

"We were ready to die; we knew what we were dying for. The most important thing was to save as many people as possible, and Bayraktar did a very good job for that."

Now visiting Istanbul, he says:

"I am here physically, but in my soul, I am there with my guys, with my people, with my free Ukraine."

For him, the TB2 means "saved lives: children, women, the civilian population."

"I want to thank Bayraktar family very much. The Ukrainian people are very grateful to them and respect them.”
