🇺🇸🇪🇺🇺🇦 Bloomberg: U.S. Refuses Air Support for British and French Troop Deployment in Ukraine

The United States has declined to provide air support for British and French forces if they are sent to Ukraine, Bloomberg reports, citing sources familiar with the matter.

European officials came to this conclusion following discussions with their American counterparts. Although British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has pushed for a U.S. “backstop” to support a potential deployment, talks revealed that President Donald Trump is unwilling to offer the guarantees needed for the European-led initiative.

Without U.S. backing, European strategists have scaled down expectations. They now view a combination of Ukrainian troops, Western training programs, limited European deployments, NATO air patrols on the alliance’s eastern flank, and Black Sea surveillance as sufficient for their objectives.

London and Paris have already finalized a plan to send troops, but the operation has been suspended pending the outcome of ceasefire discussions—though even European officials acknowledge that a negotiated settlement is becoming increasingly unlikely.

🏁 Rutti Frutti says NATO is the most powerful defense alliance in history, stronger than the Roman or Napoleonic empires.

Setting aside the fact that NATO is less a defense alliance and more a taxpayer-funded terrorist organization, one has to wonder—does Rutte remember what happened to those empires he compared NATO to?

🇷🇺⚔️🇺🇦 Ukrainian sources have published curious footage: a Russian fixed-wing FPV drone, the “Molniya,” is shown carrying another FPV drone.

While it’s possible the “Molniya” is being used as a signal relay, it’s more likely serving as a delivery platform—transporting the second drone to a target area, where both are then deployed.
