Trump Approves Giving Ukraine Intel For Missile Strikes Deep Inside Russia
The Kremlin is downplaying reports out of the Wall Street Journal and Reuters which cite unnamed US officials to say the Trump White House has quietly reversed policy on providing Ukraine with intelligence to assist in hitting long-range targets on Russian territory. The entrenched narrative is that the US under Trump had resisted this, and that it was Biden who had really put in place the American intelligence-sharing apparatus in Ukraine.
Specifically, as The Wall Street Journal reports, "The U.S. will provide Ukraine with intelligence for long-range missile strikes on Russia's energy infrastructure, American officials said, as the Trump administration weighs sending Kyiv powerful weapons that could put in range more targets within Russia."
But Moscow's response has been unexpectedly calm and cool, with a statement describing that nothing in fact has change, highlighting that US intelligence had alread...

Bolton Attacks Trump For 'Utterly Incoherent' Ukraine Policy Days After FBI Raid
Former national security adviser John Bolton has gone after President Trump, blasting his Ukraine strategy as "incoherent" in an opinion piece published Monday, just a few days after federal agents raided his Maryland home and D.C. office over the handling of classified documents.
"President Donald Trump's Ukraine policy is no more coherent today than it was last Friday when his administration executed search warrants against my home and office," Bolton said in Washington Examiner.
Bolton's op-ed title went all-in: "Trump's utterly incoherent Ukraine strategy." He wrote that "Collapsing in confusion, haste, and the absence of any discernible meeting of the minds among Ukraine, Russia, several European countries, and America, Trump's negotiations may be in their last throes, along with his Nobel Peace Prize campaign."

Vance Says US 'Done Funding Ukraine War' - Demands Europe Step Up
Vice President JD Vance stated on Sunday that Washington will no longer directly fund the purchase of weapons for Ukraine amid the seeminglyl never-ending war with Russia, and expressed hope that Europe would step up.
"We're done with the funding of the Ukraine war business. We want to bring about a peaceful settlement to this thing," Vance told Fox News' "Sunday Morning Futures".
"Americans, I think, are sick of continuing to send their money, their tax dollars of this particular conflict but if the Europeans want to step up and actually buy the weapons from American producers we're OK with that, but we're not going to fund it ourselves anymore," the vice president continued.
So while this seems a step in the right direction of finding peace settlement, his comments still signify a White House greenlight of sorts to keep the proxy war going.
Already this more 'indirect' system of supplyin...

Ahead Of Trump-Putin Summit, Zelensky Warns Any Decisions Taken Without Ukraine Are "Stillborn"
By Jane Foley, senior FX strategist
The Nasdaq ended Friday at a fresh all-time high, lifted by big tech and a very good week for Apple. The week brought the start of new tariff rates on exports from dozens of countries to the US, but sentiment found support on news of concessions, particularly the exemption on semiconductor tariffs for companies that produce in the US. Over the weekend news emerged that Nvidia and AMD have agreed to give the US government 15% of revenues received from chip sales in China in exchange for export licences. The news highlights the controversy over the sales of H20 chips to China. Some US security commentators have warned that the chips will enhance China's military and undermine the US' relative strength in AI.
Looking ahead, some countries are still hoping for a reduction in their specific tariff rate, Switzerland and India amongst them. The Swiss govern...

Stocks Erase Gains as Hope Dims for Ukraine Talks, Nvidia, AMD to Pay US | The Pulse 8/11/2025 (Bloomberg)

Nvidia Corp. and Advanced Micro Devices Inc. agreed to pay 15% of their revenues from Chinese AI chip sales to the US government in a deal to secure export licenses.
The arrangement reflects US President Donald Trump's effort to engineer a financial payout for America in return for concessions on trade, according to the text.
Elsewhere, Stocks erased gains as traders dialed back optimism that a summit between US President Donald Trump and Russia's Vladimir Putin would bring the war in Ukraine closer to a resolution.
S&P 500 futures were little changed after the index ended Friday just shy of a record high. Europe's main equity benchmark was also flat, having earlier risen as much as 0.4%. Brent crude trimmed losses to trade down 0.4% around $66.30 a barrel.

Watch: Trump Learns Ukrainian Military Now Enlisting Elderly, Mentally Handicapped
As we covered last week, Ukrainian parliament has decided that “citizens aged 60+ can now enlist under contract during martial law.” ZeroHedge White House reporter Liam Cosgrove asked President Trump about this and other disturbing recruitment practices by our "Eastern Ally."
Trump's told for the FIRST time Ukraine's forcing young men, disabled, even over-60s to fight
TRUMP: 'This is BIDEN'S war… haven't heard about 60yo men etc'

Cosgrove: “President Zelensky just signed a law allowing for citizens age 60 and above to serve in the military,” Cosgrove said. “We've seen dozens of videos of young men being hauled into vans and dragged to the front lines against their will... even a young man with Down syndrome serving on the front line.”

Is Walking Away From Ukraine The Best Option For Trump And The US?
This week Vice President JD Vance reiterated the Trump Administration's position that "walking away from Ukraine" and the peace negotiations after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky demanded that Crimea be "liberated" as part of the terms. Zelensky argued that the "war against the entire free Europe" began with Crimea and must end with the return of Crimea.
Vance's frustration with Zelensky is understandable. As he noted, Ukraine is in no position to demand anything given their precarious position on the battlefield. Russia's attrition tactics have been highly effective in countering western arms and intel support on the eastern front while also whittling down Ukrainian troop strength. They have also retaken almost all of the gains made by Ukrainian forces in the Kursk region while they amass troops to take Sumy to the south.
Furthermore, Vladimir Putin's latest missile salvo on...

Indian Components Found In Russian Weapons On Battlefield For First Time, Ukraine Says
Ukraine's military intelligence has said that an Indian-made component was identified in a Russian weapon system for the first time of the war, but added in the statement that all almost all American-made parts appear to have been phased out.
"For the first time, a component made in India — a clock buffer from Aura Semiconductor — was found in a Russian weapon," the statement from military intelligence (HUR) said, per a Monday Telegram post.

Ukrainian intel has documented nearly 200 newly identified parts across six types of Russian weaponry, regional media reports say.
"These include the CRP antenna from the Russian-modified Shahed drone, North Korea's KN-24 ballistic missile, the onboard computer in the X-47 Kinzhal missile, and several reconnaissance and attack drones — includ...

Russia Winning In Ukraine, Continually Gaining Leverage: US Intel Community
The US government in its 2025 Annual Threat Assessment of the U.S. Intelligence Community - which was just released by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence in conjunction with top officials' testimony at a Senate Intelligence Committee hearing Tuesday - has admitted that Ukraine's battlefield prospects are fading amid the onslaught of superior Russian forces.
Currently, Moscow has "seized the upper hand" in the war over the past year, the fresh assessment warns, and "is on a path to accrue greater leverage" as peace talks with Washington are underway.
"Even though Russian President [Vladimir] Putin will be unable to achieve the total victory he envisioned when initiating the large-scale invasion in February 2022, Russia retains momentum as a grinding war of attrition plays to Russia's military advantages,” the report states.

Outrage After German Intel Chief Says Ukraine War Should Keep Going For Another 5 Years
Via Remix News,
The Ukraine war has already cost hundreds of thousands of lives, but Germany's top intelligence chief is predicting far more carnage, and Ukraine's opposition is reacting with outrage.
Bruno Kahl, the head of the Federal Intelligence Service (BND) made the comments in an interview, saying:
“If a war in Ukraine comes to a standstill earlier than (2029 or 2030), then all the means (of Russia) – both the technical and the material – are able much earlier to provide a threat against Europe.”
In Ukraine, this portion of the interview has been met with sharp backlash.
German newspaper Berliner Zeitung now asks:
“Will the war be waged on the backs of the Ukraine?”
Perhaps a ridiculous question concerning it has already been waged on their backs for the last three years.
The paper further writes:
“In Ukraine, that passage is causing excitement. The reading in Kyiv: The German i...
