😵‍💫 Putin: The US is seeking a settlement, but that's a matter for Russia and Ukraine.

😵‍💫 Putin stated that he is ready to meet with Zelensky not only in Moscow, but exclusively to sign an agreement.

There was no special message from Zelensky, Putin claims. He heard again that Zelensky is ready for a personal meeting and "whoever wants to meet can come to Moscow."

The US clearly doesn't need the Ukrainian conflict and has many other priority tasks, Putin claims.

The US sincerely seeks a settlement but it's primarily a matter between Russia and Ukraine, Putin claims.

🤡 Putin said he is ready to see any leader who "has not said any nasty things" about Russia as the 🇪🇺EU's negotiator with Moscow

According to the dictator, the candidacy of former German Chancellor Schroeder is the best option for EU-Russia negotiations.

Путин назвал причины отказа от демонстрации техники на параде

Парад по случаю Дня Победы прошел без военной техники не только из соображений безопасности, но и потому, что Вооруженные силы РФ должны сосредоточить силы на специальной военной операции, заявил президент РФ Владимир Путин.

We need to make sure no one threatens us and we will strive for this, Putin claims after Kyiv allowed the victory parade in Moscow.

🇫🇮Finland wants to grab something from us, - Putin

Putin claims Finland joined NATO hoping to "grab something" from Russia after it collapses, despite having no territorial disputes before.

🤡 Putin: The globalist wing of Western elites is fighting against us through the hands of Ukrainians; in that sense, they have positioned themselves quite comfortably.

🥴 Putin: 🇫🇮Finland — why did it join NATO? Did we have any territorial disputes with Finland? Everything had long been settled.

🇮🇱🇮🇷 WSJ: Israel built a clandestine military outpost in Iraq's western desert just before its air campaign against Iran — with U.S. knowledge — to house special forces and search-and-rescue teams supporting strikes 1,000 miles away.

In early March, an Iraqi shepherd reported unusual helicopter activity, and when Iraqi troops moved to investigate, Israeli airstrikes killed one soldier and wounded two others to keep the base hidden.

Iraq blamed the U.S. in a UN complaint, but Washington says it wasn't involved; the base was never officially discovered.

Outgoing Israeli Air Force chief Tomer Bar had hinted at the operations in a March letter referring to "special missions which could ignite the imagination."
