Russia over Ukraine for EU? Is EU funding Russia more than Ukraine?
Despite sanctions and pledges to support Ukraine, the EU remains Russia’s biggest fossil fuel customer—spending over €209 billion since 2022.
Russia has earned an estimated €885 billion from fossil fuel exports during the war.
Donald Trump claimed Europe funds Russia more than it funds Ukraine—an assertion backed by data.
While official EU oil imports dropped, pipeline gas and LNG purchases continue, some via shadow fleets.
Critics argue this energy dependence prolongs the war and undermines Europe’s stance against Moscow.

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has vowed to block the EU’s new budget plan, refusing to support additional funding for Ukraine’s war effort. Orbán slammed the proposal as a “budget of hopelessness,” arguing it would harm European farmers, blackmail Hungary, and waste resources on a conflict Ukraine cannot win. He warned that 20–25% of the EU’s upcoming budget would directly go to Ukraine, leaving Europe weaker and divided. As Brussels pushes for unity, Orbán insists Ukraine should remain a partner, not a full EU member.

India has slammed the European Union's latest round of sanctions that target Nayara Energy’s Gujarat-based Vadinar refinery for its links to Russian oil giant Rosneft. As part of its 14th package of sanctions, the EU blacklisted 105 additional vessels and took aim at Nayara — the first Indian entity to face such direct action.
Brussels aims to throttle Moscow’s wartime funding, but New Delhi has accused the EU of "double standards" and reiterated its stance against unilateral sanctions. Nayara, heavily reliant on export markets in Europe and Africa, now faces disruptions, job threats, and uncertainty over Rosneft’s $20B stalled exit plan involving Reliance. India says it remains committed to its legal obligations but won’t compromise on energy security.

Will the new EU budget turn cohesion policy into regional ‘Hunger Games’?
The EU’s proposed 2028–2034 budget risks turning the bloc's cohesion policy into a high-stakes competition for funding by merging it with other major spending areas, sparking concerns over reduced local control and lack of support for disadvantaged regions.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has urged Russia to resume stalled peace talks, proposing a new round of negotiations next week. This plea follows a devastating Russian drone and missile strike on Odesa that killed at least one and injured six others. Zelenskyy confirmed that National Security and Defence Council head Rustem Umerov extended the offer, while reiterating his own readiness for a face-to-face meeting with Vladimir Putin. Meanwhile, tensions escalate as U.S. President Donald Trump issued a 50-day ceasefire ultimatum to Moscow, threatening harsh sanctions and vowing to boost arms support for Ukraine. Russia has not formally responded to the proposed talks, while Kremlin and military officials dismissed Western pressure as "blackmail." Despite diplomatic overtures, exchanges of fire continued on both sides, raising fears of further escalation in Europe’s deadliest conflict since WWII.

A dangerous new ideology is taking shape in the U.S., reshaping global power dynamics. This “New America” is fueled by a potent blend of Trump-era imperialism, nationalist conservatism, techno-libertarian capitalism, and neo-reactionary theory. With the 2025 re-election of Donald Trump, power may soon rest in the hands of thinkers and billionaires with radical views on democracy, transhumanism, and world order.
From Peter Thiel’s surveillance empire to Marc Andreessen’s “apex predator” manifesto, this convergence isn’t just political—it’s civilizational. America’s next frontier may not be driven by diplomacy, but by AI, algorithms, and post-human elites. As the liberal world order fades, a dangerous experiment unfolds in real time. Is this the future of power—or the beginning of the end?

In a dramatic geopolitical shift, Russia has withdrawn from a long-standing military cooperation agreement with Germany, originally signed in 1996. Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin's move follows a cascade of sanctions from Western allies and Germany’s support for Ukraine. Russia's Foreign Ministry labeled Berlin's stance as "openly hostile" and accused Germany of pursuing aggressive militaristic policies.
The collapse of this bilateral framework underscores Moscow's pivot toward nations like North Korea, Iran, and China. In recent weeks, Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has met with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un—who pledged unconditional support for Russia’s war—and Iranian officials during the BRICS summit. Meanwhile, President Putin hinted at retaliatory arming of regions to strike Western targets. As the West distances itself from Moscow, Russia deepens its ties with fellow sanctioned states, signaling a bold new strategic alignment.

Russia has fiercely condemned Israel's airstrikes on Syrian territory, including near the presidential palace, calling them a "flagrant violation of international law" and a threat to regional stability. Moscow reaffirmed its support for Syria’s sovereignty under the Al-Sharaa regime and warned against any foreign interference. The IDF defended its actions, citing retaliation for Syrian regime moves against Druze civilians. Russia, however, urged peaceful dialogue and national unity in Syria as the only path to lasting stability and an end to foreign intervention.

On July 17, Ukrainian troops raised national flags in the eastern villages of Yalta and Voskresenka, located near the Donetsk-Dnipropetrovsk border—territories Russia had already claimed to have captured.
Fighters from the 31st Separate Mechanized Brigade and the 505th Separate Marine Battalion quietly entered these so-called “occupied” areas and planted the Ukrainian flag, directly challenging Moscow’s narrative of battlefield success.
Footage released by Ukraine’s 20th Corps shows the flag-raising moments and FPV drone strikes targeting Russian positions. While Russian propaganda reports daily advances, Ukrainian forces are proving that the front lines remain fluid, contested, and fiercely defended.
