Head Of Russia's Sovereign Wealth Fund Pitches "Putin-Trump" Undersea Tunnel Linking Russia-US
President Trump confirmed a "very productive" phone call with Russian President Putin on Thursday, according to a post on Truth Social. The two leaders are now expected to meet in the near term in Budapest, Hungary, with discussions centered on potential pathways to end the war in Ukraine.
Trump's latest threat to supply Ukraine with Tomahawk missiles may have been a key driver prompting Moscow's sudden willingness to engage in talks at the highest level. While full details of the call remain undisclosed, the tone shift signals possible upcoming breakthroughs in negotiations to end the three-year war in Eastern Europe, which has resulted in some casualty figures on both sides at 1.4 million, according to a recent New York Times report, citing U.S. and British government estimates, among other sources.
What comes out of Budapest remains to be seen. But already, Russian sove...

Will Russian-US Tensions Likely Spiral Out Of Control If Ukraine Obtains Tomahawk Missiles?
Authored by Andrew Korybko via Substack,
The precedent set by Russia's restrained response to Ukraine obtaining the F-16s, which could also be nuclear-equipped, suggests that tensions with the US will remain manageable if Ukraine obtains the Tomahawks too due to the modus vivendi that's arguably been in place for managing them.
The latest talk about the US transferring longer-range Tomahawk cruise missiles to Ukraine, which Putin said earlier this month could only be used with US military personnel's direct involvement, has prompted concerns about a potentially uncontrollable escalation spiral. Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov assessed that such a development would lead to “a significant change in the situation” but nonetheless reaffirmed that it wouldn't prevent Russia from achieving its goals in the special operation.
Ukraine's explicitly stated goal in obtaining these...

Kremlin Rejects 'Fabricated' Report of Russian Drones Spying On US Weapons Routes In Germany
The Kremlin has rejected claims that Russia or its agents have been using drones to track American and allied weapons shipments passing through eastern Germany, after a Thursday New York Times article alleged it.
US officials suspect that Russian intelligence or its proxies have flown surveillance drones over supply routes in the German state of Thuringia, the NY Times said, in an effort to gather vital intelligence on arms manufacturers and logistical pathways for weapon deliveries to Ukraine via Poland - especially when it comes to US arms flows.

The idea is that Russia could use this information to then possibly sabotage supply routes or manufacturers, as part of an ongoing 'dirty war' against NATO's support infrastructure.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov used the word 'fabricated' to dismiss the report, saying, "It's hard to believe - if it were true, the Germans would have ...
