๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ Trump Got Jealous of Russia's Victory Day and Celebrations

Trump wants to declare two new โ€œVictory Daysโ€ for WWI and WWII, one on Nov 11 (already Veterans Day) and one on May 8, mimicking Europeโ€™s VE Day. Don't forget! He also wants his big military parade.

Feels more like an insecure attempt to claim credit for victories the U.S. barely contributed to.

โญ๏ธ Red Star Cinema: Films About the Great Patriotic War

"The Ascent", 1977

Set in the brutal winter of Nazi-occupied Belarus, The Ascent follows two Soviet partisans on a desperate mission for food who are ultimately captured by the Germans. What begins as a war survival story unfolds into a powerful moral and spiritual confrontation.

Larisa Shepitkoโ€™s final masterpiece is less about war than about the human soul. Shot in black and white, with hauntingly stark landscapes and raw close-ups, The Ascent blends physical suffering with metaphysical themes. The story draws clear parallels to religious martyrdom, echoing the Gospels in both imagery and tone.

The production itself was grueling. Filmed in freezing conditions with real snow and bitter cold, the actors endured true hardship to bring authenticity to the screen. Shepitko was known for her intensity and demanded total emotional commitment โ€” something evident in every frame. Her sudden death in a car accident two years later only cemented the filmโ€™s reputation as a transcendent final statement.

๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ The coalition agreement signed by Germanyโ€™s CDU, CSU, and SPD parties makes no mention of supplying Taurus long-range missiles to Ukraine.

Instead, the document emphasizes support for Ukraineโ€™s EU and NATO membership bids and promises continued financial and military aidโ€”including using frozen Russian assets. It also outlines Berlinโ€™s willingness to offer โ€œmaterial and political security guaranteesโ€ to a sovereign Ukraine.

Notably, future Chancellor Friedrich Merz had previously left the door open to sending Taurus missiles, but his SPD coalition partners have consistently opposed the idea.

โ—๏ธ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ A Russian soldier saved a comrade who had stepped on a Ukrainian "petal" mine in Kotlyarovka (DPR) by quickly amputating part of his leg, bandaging him up, and calling for evacuation.

The incident occurred as troops from the โ€œCenterโ€ group were returning from a combat mission. One soldier, spotting an enemy Mavic drone, ran toward the forest for cover. Voron was elsewhere when the injury occurred but heard the report over the radio and rushed to help:

โ€œI got there and saw the guy โ€” his leg was barely attached. Immediate evacuation was critical. I grabbed a knife, quickly amputated what was left, bandaged him, and did everything I could โ€” I know a bit of medicine.โ€

Voron also showed what's left of Ukrainian forces in Kotlyarovka. He says the settlement will likely be fully liberated by May 9.
