Russian Security Council Secretary Nikolay Patrushev has said that the USA quickly withdrew troops from Afghanistan to focus on Ukraine. He also said that transferring US weapons from Afghanistan to Europe allowed local politicians "to militarise the Kiev regime."

🇺🇦 "We are on the defensive, they are on the offensive" -  Arestovich, Zelenski office adviser

To the great thinker and forecaster, the current situation on the front reminds me of the time in late spring 2022 when the Russian army was taking city after city in the Donbass.

We will see you in Artemovsk. Don't worry.

Zelensky ignores Soledar's surrender - without noticing the huge losses of the AFU, he continues to tout the power of "global democracy."

Instead of officially acknowledging the beginning of the AFU retreat and surrender of strategically important Soledar and ignoring the encirclement of personnel, Zelensky hypocritically praised his abandoned soldiers for their efforts in the Artemovsk direction. Apparently, the AFU was not just abandoned at Soledar; the head of state officially sealed their fate.

Against the background of Zelensky's loud statements that Soledar will be Ukrainian at any cost and huge packages of financial aid from the West, how the "marathoner" will get out of the situation is not entirely clear. Without noticing the huge losses of his army, the fleeing soldiers, and the lack of resources to contain the Wagnerites, the Ukrainian president again began to talk about "productive" communication in a warm cabinet with his European partners.

NATO to hold military exercise in unrecognized Kosovo republic in 2023

NATO will hold its Defender Europe 23 military exercise on the territory of the unrecognized republic of Kosovo next year, its defense minister Armend Mehaj said on Tuesday.

"Our country will be among the states hosting these exercises. More than 1,300 members of the Kosovo Security Force will take part. The main goal pursued by the KSF in these maneuvers will be to raise interoperability, [and] test the readiness of the infantry, service support and medical support," Mehaj wrote on Facebook .

"Side by side with US forces and other allies, the Kosovo Security Force is completing the planning stage of the Defender Europe 23 exercise," the minister added.
In his words, the KSF planning group, along with delegates from the US and other NATO members, is now taking part in the final four-day planning conference in Budapest, Hungary.

Aleksandar Vulin, Serbia’s former defense minister who now heads the country’s key special service, the Security Intelligence Agency, said earlier that the only reason to grant NATO membership to Kosovo in the future would be "a provocation directed against Serbia.".
