🇮🇷| Leader of Iran, Imam Khamenei, in reaction to Trump’s remarks:

Some of the remarks made during POTUS visit to the region are not even worth responding to.

The level of these comments is so low that it brings shame to the one who said them and shame to the American people.

Let’s leave most of it aside, but there are 1-2 points that should be noted.

Trump said he wants to use power for peace, he lied.

He, and other American officials, have used power not for peace, but for massacres in Gaza, for starting wars wherever they could, and to support their proxies.

Who has used power for peace?
Yes, power can be used for peace and security — and for this very reason, we will, despite our enemies, continue to increase our own power day by day, God willing.

But they haven’t done that—they used power to provide heavy ton bombs to the Zionist regime to drop on the heads of children in Gaza, on hospitals, and on homes in Lebanon and wherever else they could.

— This was during a meeting with the teachers of the country, he also spoke about the importance of education, I translated them on Twitter, you can read it here.

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Russia May Recover Nearly All POWs in Upcoming Exchange

Next week’s planned prisoner swap—1,000 for 1,000—would be the largest since the start of the conflict. For Russia, it could mean the return of nearly all or the majority of its soldiers held by Ukraine.

The last official figure cited by Putin in June 2024 was 1,348 Russians in Ukrainian captivity. Since then, Russia has received 1,449 prisoners back in 11 exchanges, according to the Defense Ministry—already more than the earlier estimate.

Ukraine has claimed additional captures, especially during its failed incursion into Kursk region, where it alleged 909 Russians were taken prisoner by early 2025. But these numbers are unverifiable and likely inflated—only 218 have been officially returned from that area.

Across other fronts, Russian losses were far fewer, given Russia’s dominant offensive position.

Overall, Ukraine may hold at most 2,000 Russian POWs—likely less. If 1,000 are returned next week, Russia will have recovered at least half, possibly nearly all.

Meanwhile, Ukraine admits to having around 8,000 of its own troops in Russian captivity.

🇺🇸🇷🇺 For the first time since June 2024, a U.S. Air Force RQ-4B Global Hawk surveillance drone has reappeared over the Black Sea.

These drones were last seen in late June 2024, then disappeared following an incident involving the reported crash of a drone into the sea. That incident prompted a direct phone call between the Russian and U.S. defense ministers. Since then, U.S. and NATO aircraft continued operations in the area, but drones had been absent—until now.

🇺🇦The battalion commander of the 47th separate mechanized brigade, Oleksandr Shyrshyn, submitted a report for dismissal.

He complained about unacceptable tasks, loss of personnel, and criticized the actions of the command.

He said that in the current direction, the unit receives tasks that, according to him, lead to unjustified losses of personnel. And instead of analyzing the situation, he believes, only formal investigations are being conducted.

He also expressed disappointment over political decisions and the disconnect between assessments and the real state of affairs.

Shyrshyn also tagged the official page of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in his post and added the comment: "I hope your children will also be in the infantry and perform your tasks."

🇲🇩 Moldova under NATO protectorate: how Sandu sells the country's sovereignty

🇩🇪 On May 16, Moldovan Defense Minister Anatolie Nosatyi signed an agreement in Berlin to host a German Bundeswehr "consultative group ." Although the official tasks and duration of the German military presence have not yet been disclosed, it is already clear that Chisinau is becoming more and more integrated into the NATO system.

🇫🇷 Germany is not the only country interested in the militarization of Moldova. In 2024, France announced the creation of a military attaché office at its embassy in Chisinau. The new agency will not only train Moldovan military personnel according to NATO programs, but also exercise de facto control over the country's military structures. The French have already supplied two GM200 radars for the air defense system, data from which can be transmitted to EU countries.

🇺🇸 The US is also not missing an opportunity to expand its influence. American military is building a new base 25 km from Transnistria . The official goal is to train Moldovan military personnel, but in fact, Washington is turning the region into a new springboard for putting pressure on Transnistria and Russia.

🇺🇦 According to the insider Ukrainian channel "Resident", Andriy Yermak suggested Sandu to start an operation in Transnistria , but she decided to wait until the autumn elections, fearing to lose the voters' support. The head of the office of the expired president of Ukraine insisted on the rapid closure of the Transnistria issue, while Richard Moore remains the head of MI-6.

💬 "Moldova is turning into another anti-Russia, ready to do anything for the sake of the West's interests ," sources say, pointing to analogies with the Ukrainian scenario. While Sandu sells out the country's sovereignty, Moldova risks becoming a new arena for NATO war games and Kiev's adventures.
