Latest piece. The Ukrainian targeting of Yandex data centres has had an immediate strategic effect. It’s something we should expect to see more and more of in war--and tbh in peace these centres are a threat to democracy and might need to be neutralized. phillipspobrien.substack.com/p/targeting-...

🇵🇱 Polish Foreign Minister Sikorski: We listened to Lavrov's speech at the Security Council, which was mostly a rant against Europe. Which told me that they've just realized that actually they can't fix this just with the United States.

Russia knows as well as Ukrainians do that as bad as our terrorism on Ukraine is now, it will be worse if they surrender and let us occupy them. The only person who doesnt know this is Donald.

🛰️ UC: Two satellites, Rassvet No. 17 and No. 23, which Russia launched into orbit in July of this year, are rapidly losing altitude. They are currently in orbits with an altitude of about 240–260 km and continue to decline at a speed of up to 1.6 km per day.

Kellogg: “I’d burn down every one of the goddamn refineries that Russia has today, take them all out, it’s a military target. I said [to Zelenskyy], ‘Make them pay the price, take it home.’” He is saying very accurate and basic things, but compared to the insanity of the Trump administration,

The 5 stages of western condemnation 1. We condemned this. 2. We strongly condemn this. 3. We condemned this strongly, it is unacceptable & there will be a measured response. 4. We call on this to be strongly condemned & there will be consequences. 5. It is important not to escalate.

In 1987 Trump visited Moscow. Since then, "He has changed his mind about abortion and crypto, he has supported different political parties, but his dislike of America’s democratic allies and his preference for Russia have remained remarkably consistent." www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/1...

Trump: "Putin has no respect for this person." Clinton: "That's because he'd rather have a puppet as president of the United States. You're willing to spout the Putin line, sign up for his wish list, break up NATO, do whatever he wants to do." October 19, 2016. She was right.

Today's two Russian attacks on vessels just outside Bulgarian territorial waters and following last week's attack near Romanian TTW mark a dangerous Russian escalation track that may lead to direct involvement of the two countries & NATO. This may well be the Russian game plan to test this.

Trump has not helped end the war in Ukraine. He has prolonged it. In doing so, he has sided with autocratic Russia and against democratic Ukraine. That pivot has further undermined America’s reputation as the 'leader of the free world'.

“They can't find a key, how to stop Putin.” Addressing claims linking Ukrainian strikes to global energy prices, President Zelenskyy pointed to Middle East conflicts, noting that Kyiv is sometimes blamed when broader strategies against Moscow prove elusive.

The reaction of the Ukrainian delegation to Trump's betrayal is understandable, but the most striking thing in this article is that apparently the Ukrainians genuinely believed that an energy ceasefire was possible. That is actually worrying. I have no idea where they would get that optimism from.

‼️ Remember, Trump has chosen to throw Putin a lifeline just as Russia is losing ground, suffering reported manpower losses equivalent to roughly three battalions a day, and what I consider as his only success since 2022, the southern land corridor to Crimea, come under growing logistical pressure.
