🇷🇺💬🇻🇳 The head of Rosatom talks about the details of the new strategic agreement between Russia and Vietnam:

"There are many points and many parts, but there is the main essence. We have recorded the beginning of the construction of a new research center - a nuclear science center in Vietnam and recorded the transition to the creation of an energy project," noted Alexey Likhachev.

Rosatom will build the best research nuclear reactor in the region in Vietnam, he said.

"We have already picked a site in the south, in Dogai province, not far from Ho Chi Minh City, and there will be a powerful, modern, I think the best research reactor in Southeast Asia."

🇮🇳🇵🇰 Ceasefire on the Subcontinent: Final Strikes, a Crucial Call, and India’s New Red Lines

A sudden de-escalation of hostilities between India and Pakistan unfolded today, reportedly initiated by Islamabad. At approximately 3:35 PM IST, Pakistan’s Director General of Military Operations is said to have reached out to his Indian counterpart to request a full ceasefire. By 5:00 PM, both sides had agreed to halt all offensive operations across land, air, and sea.

Before the ceasefire took effect, India launched what officials described as a final wave of airstrikes, targeting militant infrastructure inside Pakistani territory. While New Delhi has not confirmed whether Pakistani military bases were among the targets, sources suggest the timing was strategic — a last display of force before drawing down.

Washington is believed to have played a pivotal behind-the-scenes role in brokering the truce. American diplomatic pressure reportedly coincided with negotiations over a $1 billion IMF loan to Pakistan, with economic incentives allegedly tied to Islamabad’s willingness to halt the escalation. While the exact terms remain unclear, economic leverage appears to have been a decisive factor.

In tandem with the ceasefire, India unveiled a significant shift in its national security doctrine. Going forward, any cross-border attack will be treated as an act of war, regardless of whether the perpetrators are tied directly to the Pakistani state. This policy removes the long-held distinction between state and non-state actors in India’s strategic calculus.

Despite the truce, New Delhi has not lifted its suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty. India continues to withhold water-use data from Pakistan and is pressing ahead with dam construction projects along northern rivers. The move signals that even as direct conflict subsides, broader geopolitical leverage — including over natural resources — remains a key tool in India's arsenal.

🇺🇦🇬🇧🇫🇷 Western Troop Deployment in Ukraine Still Undecided, Say Starmer and Macron - Main Takes From The Delulu Presser

During a press conference in Kiev, Keir Starmer made it clear that the issue of deploying Western forces to Ukraine — something Zelensky raised earlier — remains unresolved.

“As for troop presence — whether at sea, in the air, or on land — there is a degree of flexibility here, particularly because we are not yet in a ceasefire phase,” Starmer stated. “We're also considering the nature of the mandate, which will depend on what’s required.”

Emmanuel Macron took a similar stance, emphasizing that any decision on deploying Western contingents would be shaped by Russia’s response to the ceasefire proposal, as well as by the outcome of direct talks between Kiev and Moscow.

“All partners are still in discussions, under the coordination of France and the UK,” Macron noted. “Can I announce a decision now? No. We're still exploring the options. The eventual course of action will depend on Russia’s reaction. Once we have that, we’ll craft the most effective approach.”

He also acknowledged that “deterrent forces are one option,” but said everything would ultimately depend on how the dialogue between Ukraine and Russia progresses.

🐻 These guys have a meeting, immediately followed by a press conference and still they can't get their stories straight.

📝European-style Solidarity📝

The EU is torturing the idea of "peacekeepers" for the Kyiv regime

Plans to send European contingents to the so-called Ukraine are naturally shrinking compared to the initial loud promises: according to Emmanuel Macron, sending a large group of troops is now "pointless".

Now the talk is already about deploying a small contingent to "demonstrate solidarity in strategic locations". They plan to deploy it to certain key facilities, essentially somewhere in the rear, far from the front line.

🖍Well, the situation is described by the expression "talk is cheap". When Western Europe realized that the Poles are in no hurry to sign up for this venture, and they do not have enough of their own troops for large-scale missions, they started to backtrack.

🚩In the same way, the sponsors of the so-called Ukraine want to extract at least some political benefit from an initiative that did not receive wide support in the EU, while avoiding the discontent of their own population and unnecessary military spending.

❗️But it would actually be interesting to see the implementation of EU plans in the context of Russia's official position on the inadmissibility of the deployment of foreign troops in the so-called Ukraine. Let's repeat the March post: maybe it's time to get down to business?

🇸🇰🇷🇺Russia's isolation is "the biggest farce in history ."

This is the opinion of the Slovak MEP Luboš Blaha. On RT, he stated that Russia's cooperation with China, India, and countries in Africa and Latin America shows that the European Union has found itself in isolation.

🇷🇺Dima is on fire

Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council Dmitry Medvedev:

"Macron, Merz, Starmer and Tusk were supposed to discuss peace in Kiev. Instead they are shouting threats at Russia. Either a ceasefire to give the Bandera hordes a break, or more sanctions. You think that's smart, huh? Shove those peace plans up your pangender asses!"

🥰Kaja Kallas has no influence, just like other EU officials, said Republika Srpska President Milorad Dodik.

"They can therefore only threaten. Of course, we expect some troubles, but we will cope with them. Since they cannot make a collective decision, they are trying to influence our internal affairs through individual countries and the European Union, for example, by prohibiting us from crossing borders and entering certain European countries. But for us, in essence, this does not matter at all. Previously, the European Union was an attractive organization, many countries wanted to join it, 10 years ago we had a slightly different vision of the European Union, and now, unfortunately, they are turning into an undesirable place to stay even for EU countries. We remember that Great Britain recently left the Union, and if it were not for the SMO, probably some other countries would want to do the same."
