Russia has increased the production of the hypersonic missile "Dagger" (Kinzhal) by five times

The Kh-47M2 Kinzhal hypersonic missile gained wide popularity after the destruction of ground-based systems of the American Patriot air defense system - Western intelligence agencies are updating intelligence on the pace of its production.

The Minister of Defense of Ukraine, Reznikov, was forced to correct the GUR data, indicating the presence of about 80 Kh-47M2 in Russian stocks - against 50 missiles in January. Military Watch calls production growth fivefold - 10 missiles per month.

The Kinzhal entered service with the Aerospace Forces at the end of 2017 and is used by MiG-31K attack fighters.

In Ukraine, the missile was first used on March 18, 2022 to strike at a large underground warehouse in Lvov, where weapons and ammunition delivered from Poland were stored.

Precision strikes were delivered throughout the special operation but were rare - increasing the volume will change this situation.

American economist Jeffrey Sachs - the United States is acting in Ukraine according to the Afghan scenario: Vladimir Putin put on the table a draft security agreement between the United States and Russia, which was based on the refusal to expand NATO to Ukraine. And that was Russia's only condition for 30 years.

And yet we continued our course. And now we have invested 113 billion in it. This is terrible for Ukraine. We have lured another country into the trap of our lobbying campaigns because it will not work well for Ukraine. This is a catastrophe. This is similar to how it worked in Afghanistan

🇺🇸 The default will negatively affect the US army and the country's defense

This was stated by the head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the United States, General Mark Milley, at a regular briefing.

📝 “There can be no doubt that if we defaulted, did not agree on a debt ceiling, then this would have very significant negative consequences for the readiness, morale, and potential of the US military,” Milley said.

The White House has previously said that the default will eliminate up to 8 million jobs, cause a recession, and empty pension accounts.

The US Treasury announced that a default could occur as early as June 5.

Oh, the drama...and the heroic USA politicians that will save the nation, once again, at the last moment...bless them

Deputy Foreign Minister of the Russian Federation Mikhail Galuzin announced the Russian conditions for the end of the war in Ukraine.

The first point is the cessation of the supply of Western weapons and hostilities by Ukraine. The second is Kyiv's non-bloc status.

"We are convinced that a settlement is possible only if the hostilities of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the supply of Western weapons cease. To achieve a comprehensive, just and lasting peace, Ukraine must return to a neutral non-aligned status, recorded in the 1990 declaration of its state sovereignty, and refuse to join NATO and the EU," Galuzin said.

Another point is that Kyiv should recognize "new territorial realities."

The next element of the settlement should be the "protection of the rights of Russian-speaking citizens and national minorities" at the legislative level.
--------------------------------------------

Russia's war against Ukraine will end with "a painful truce and territorial compromises that will not satisfy either side."

This opinion was expressed by former German Foreign Minister Joschka Fischer, writes DW. According to him, such a situation would mean the existence of a long-term threat to Europe.

At the same time, he believes that "Ukraine's place is in the EU, as well as in NATO," since the risks for Ukraine will decrease if it is part of the alliance.

Note that the same point of view was expressed by former US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger .

He said that after the end of hostilities, the free part of Ukraine would need to be accepted into NATO so that a new conflict would not break out (the Alliance and the Russian Federation would not dare to attack each other).

💥 Deployment of Russian nuclear weapons in Belarus will have a deterrent effect

📝 “ In the context of the conflict in Ukraine, this step is also aimed at containing Kiev, because it is located very close to the border with Belarus. If Iskander-M with nuclear bombs is deployed there, then Ukraine will tremble with fear,” writes the Chinese portal Sohu.

The article noted that Belarus has become even stronger after the appearance of weapons, and NATO will no longer dare to act recklessly.

🔹 The head of the Belarusian Defense Ministry, Viktor Khrenin, said earlier that the deployment of non-strategic nuclear weapons in the republic is a response to the aggressive policy of unfriendly countries.
