๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡ธ Serbian President Vuฤiฤ‡โ€™s Plane Forced to Land in Baku En Route to Moscow

Serbian President Aleksandar Vuฤiฤ‡โ€™s aircraft, en route to Moscow to attend the Victory Day parade, was forced to make an emergency landing in Baku.
According to reports, the diversion was due to denied airspace access and unspecified "security threats," including the potential danger posed by air defense systems along the route.

Earlier, Latvia and Lithuania had explicitly banned Vuฤiฤ‡โ€™s plane from entering their airspace, while the European Union warned that his participation in the May 9 Victory Day celebrations could complicate Serbiaโ€™s EU accession talks.

In a similar move, Poland and Lithuania also blocked Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico from flying to Moscow, and Estonia issued a blanket ban on any flights to Russia for the commemoration.

These coordinated actions by the Baltic states and Polandโ€”closely aligned with the Kiev regimeโ€”appear aimed at sabotaging the 80th anniversary of the Soviet victory over Nazi Germany. Meanwhile, Ukrainian forces are intensifying attacks on Moscow in an attempt to disrupt the arrival of foreign leaders.

Serbian media reports that Vuฤiฤ‡โ€™s plane has already resumed its journey from Baku to Moscow.

๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บDmitry Peskov, answering a question from TASS, explained why Russia is no longer interested in participating in the G7:

"The center of economic development has already shifted in the other direction; other countries are already legislators of economic processes."

๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ณโš”๏ธ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ฐ The next two posts may trigger some people, but weโ€™re posting them regardless.

Images have surfaced online that do not appear in reverse image searches, which gives some potential credibility to Pakistani claims about shooting down Indian fighter jets last night.

The first shows wreckage of an unidentified aircraft allegedly found in Kashmir, including what appears to be a K-36DM ejection seat โ€” used in Indian Su-30MKI and MiG-29 fighter jets.

As we said, these images do not show up in reverse searches, but we cannot independently verify their authenticity. Weโ€™re sharing the information โ€” you decide.

๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ณโš”๏ธ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ฐ The next images show what appears to be an engine part, allegedly filmed in Bathinda, India โ€” claimed to be wreckage from a downed fighter jet.

The engine nozzle design suggests it could be from an M88 engine, which powers Rafale jets.

Once again, we cannot independently verify these claims, but at first glance, the images appear to be recent.

๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ณโš”๏ธ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ฐ Another interesting observation: the British ejection seat manufacturer Martin-Baker updated its "lives saved" tally today, following news of the F/A-18 incident over the Red Sea yesterday.

Since their last update on April 16, the total has increased by four โ€” but only teo of those, the F/A-18, has been publicly identified. That leaves two unspecified ejections.

It's worth noting that both the Indian Rafale and the Pakistani JF-17 use Martin-Baker ejection seats โ€” the Rafale is equipped with the Mk.16F, while the JF-17 uses the PK16LE variant, which is a localized version of the Mk.16 series.

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ’ฌ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ JD Vance thinks "Russia is asking for too much"

โ€œThe Russians are asking for a certain set of requirements, a certain set of concessions in order to end the conflict. We think theyโ€™re asking for too much,โ€ Vance said.

Vance said the next step is to get Ukraine and Russia to agree to talk to each other.

โ€œWe would like both the Russians and the Ukrainians to actually agree on some basic guidelines for sitting down and talking to one another,โ€ he said. โ€œThat is the next big step weโ€™d like to take.โ€

Speaking to the Munich Leaders Meeting in Washington, he said that the U.S. is focusing on a long-term settlement since Russia has rejected the U.S. call for a 30-day ceasefire. Moscow has said that sort of temporary pause is not in its strategic interest because it would allow Ukraine to regroup.
