When I received the second report from our negotiating team after their meetings in Abu Dhabi, they told me that the Russians think and say they have already occupied half of Donbas, which remains under our control. These were military officers, Russian intelligence, and they were serious about it. Our team told them, “We don’t know how you can even say such things. We have video footage, images, other things proving that these areas are under our control.”
This is the problem. Putin lives in a different reality. Of course, he will be sharing with the Americans that he needs one or two months to fully occupy the east of Ukraine. I can draw a picture for him too where I fully occupy Russia. But it’s not true. What was good is that the American side confirmed the Ukrainian assessment of what is happening on the battlefield.
This is why we need to sit and speak at the level of leaders. There are a lot of questions. Like we spoke about the city of Kherson that is divided by the river today. The Russians control one bank, we control the other. But people want to live united on both banks. This is a Ukrainian city. Such issues are sensitive, but we have to speak about them. I think that tomorrow the teams will discuss the possibility of meeting at the level of leaders. I'm not sure that Russia is ready, but we will raise this topic.

Both as Russia's culture minister and later as a presidential aide, Vladimir Medinsky repeatedly denied Ukraine's right to exist.
In a revealing choice about its intentions, the Kremlin appointed him its chief peace negotiator.
Last week, he was added to the EU sanctions list.

I’m not holding my breath about the trilateral meeting between Ukraine, the US, and Russia happening today, but I'm hoping that, as is often the case, a prisoner of war exchange will follow soon after.

🔥Russians are panicking over Ukraine’s new refinery strike tactics. Drones reportedly switch targets mid-flight, and Trump can no longer simply pull the plug.
The Russian Telegram channel *Дневник Разведчика* (Intelligence Officer’s Diary, 147,800 subscribers) describes a major shift in Ukraine’s long-range drone campaign following the strikes on Kstovo, Samara and Yaroslavl.
Previously, Ukrainian drones were sent toward predetermined targets. If the first drones successfully hit a refinery unit, the rest continued toward the same target.
Now, according to the Russian channel, Ukrainian operators can monitor strikes in real time and redirect incoming drones while they are still in flight.
Once a primary distillation unit is hit, subsequent drones can be redirected toward storage tanks, cracking units, electrical substations or other critical equipment.
Instead of concentrating an entire wave on one target, Ukraine can distribute the damage across multiple parts of the refinery.
The Russians are describing something far more dangerous for their oil industry than simply larger drone attacks: the ability to adapt an entire strike while it is happening.
The channel attributes this capability to Israeli HiSKY SmartLight satellite communications terminals, which it says Ukraine is using as an alternative to Starlink.
It claims the terminals allow two-way communication over Russian territory, making it possible to adjust flight paths, identify air-defence positions and redirect drones around interception zones.
And then comes the most revealing part.
The Russian channel argues that American restrictions on Starlink have backfired spectacularly.
Its conclusion:
"Trump has simply lost his leverage over Kyiv’s long-range strikes."
And:
"Ukraine has slipped off the American leash and found a commercial alternative that the White House cannot switch off with a phone call."
That is coming from a Russian military channel, not Ukrainian propaganda.
Moscow is now discussing a scenario in which Ukraine can strike multiple critical refinery units in a single operation, adapt to Russian air defences in real time and continue its campaign without depending on American-controlled communications.
Putin has been trying to get Trump to restrain Ukraine’s refinery strikes. Now Russian military commentators are warning that even American pressure may no longer be enough.
The irony is extraordinary. Washington reportedly tried to limit Ukraine’s options. The Russians are now complaining that Ukraine has found a way around those limits.
The HiSKY deployment, electronic-warfare resistance and real-time retargeting capabilities are claims made by the Russian channel, not independently established technical facts. The attribution in the draft matters, especially for the claims about Trump’s leverage.

Kraków Shooting Sunday morning update:
Some pretty grim details have emerged overnight.
Police have found three bodies at the gunman's home in Ostrowiec Świętokrzyski, about 150 km northeast of Kraków.
They are believed to be his mother, father and sister, although their identities have not yet been formally confirmed.
The suspect's sister normally lived in Kraków and had apparently returned to Ostrowiec to visit her parents. Neighbours described the parents as friendly, sociable people. One said they had celebrated New Year's Eve together.
They also knew about the family's interest in firearms. According to one neighbour, the father and son regularly visited a shooting range together, sometimes every Sunday morning.
The suspect is 24 years old and had a firearms permit. Polish media report that he was a member of the Świt shooting club in Starachowice and had two legally registered firearms. His father reportedly owned another eleven.
That means the father and son had thirteen registered firearms between them.
The suspect reportedly trained as a lathe operator at a vocational school in Ostrowiec.
The defence minister has confirmed that he never served in the Polish military, despite earlier reports suggesting otherwise.
As for his possible motive, there's still very little new information.
Interior Minister Marcin Kierwiński said yesterday that the gunman held very radical views and appeared to be fascinated by far-right ideologies. But we haven't yet been told what investigators found to support that assessment, whether he had links to any extremist organisations, or whether those beliefs motivated the shooting.
We also know more about the two police officers who confronted him.
They've been named as Jakub Kulik and Artur Morański. One suffered three gunshot wounds and the other was shot once. Both underwent surgery, and overnight reports described their conditions as stable, although their injuries are serious.
Jakub Kulik was previously a soldier with Poland's 6th Airborne Brigade and had only recently joined the police. His former military unit has issued an urgent appeal for blood donations, specifically AB Rh-positive.
On how quickly the police responded:
The first emergency call came in at exactly 15:00:15 yesterday. Police say the first patrol began responding just 23 seconds later. By approximately 15:03, officers were already exchanging gunfire with the attacker. Thirty police patrols were deployed altogether.
Six people were killed in Kraków, four women and two men. Three Polish women and a British citizen have been identified among the dead. The identities of the other two had not been confirmed at last night's briefing.
Reports on the number injured range from 15 to 17, including the two police officers. Five of the injured are foreign nationals, from Austria, Germany, Portugal, Russia and Britain. The gunman was also wounded and remains in hospital.
Poland is observing two days of national mourning today and tomorrow, Sunday and Monday. Kraków has declared mourning until Wednesday.

El presidente de Paraguay, Santi Peña, ha hecho quebrar con sus chanchullos el principal banco del país. La mitad de la población adulta del país (3 mill de personas), se han quedado sin sus ahorros Y SIN SUS PENSIONES. No tienen NADA tras el DESFALCO Comparte copiando el enlace

Paraguay's corrupt right-wing President Santiago Peña was a close US ally.
He oversaw the creation of a digital bank called Ueno Bank, which his government heavily promoted. Two-thirds of Paraguayans used the bank.
It turned out to be a massive scheme. The bank gave out many fraudulent loans and is probably insolvent.
When this scandal was exposed, the bank froze access to customer funds, paralyzing the country's economy.
Peña resigned mere minutes before lawmakers voted to impeach him.
Arrest orders have been issued for the bank executives.
