🇺🇦🇧🇾🇷🇺 Details of the thwarted body swap on the border with Belarus have emerged!

Today, the first stage of a large-scale exchange of bodies of the dead was planned, within the framework of which Russia planned to transfer about 6 thousand bodies of Ukrainian militants. For this purpose, all the necessary procedures were carried out: 150 trucks with bodies were sent from Rostov-on-Don, where special refrigerated hangars are located, to the border with Belarus, which is actually seven and a half times more than during previous exchanges. The bodies were packed in bags, then in standard containers about 2 meters long. Each of the trucks contained from 20 to 40 such containers.

However, at the last moment, the Ukrainian side unexpectedly refused to accept the bodies - without explanation. Representatives of Ukraine did not appear at the border.

According to Reuters, NATO officials are planning to limit any discussion about Ukraine at the upcoming summit in The Hague and are working to carefully stage Zelensky's appearance — if he attends at all — so as not to provoke U.S. President Donald Trump.

Citing internal sources, the report says Zelensky might be allowed to attend a pre-summit dinner, but will be excluded from the main meeting. As of now, NATO has not even formally confirmed his invitation.

🇺🇸🇷🇺 White House Quietly Pressures Senate to Weaken Anti-Russian Sanctions — WSJ

The Wall Street Journal reports that the administration of President Donald Trump is quietly urging the U.S. Senate to soften proposed sanctions against Russia.

According to the report, the White House is particularly focused on persuading Republican Senator Lindsey Graham to water down his sanctions bill. Rather than prioritizing punishment over the Ukraine conflict, the Trump administration is said to be aiming for a broader normalization of relations with Moscow.

In recent weeks, White House officials and other agencies have unofficially reached out to Graham’s office, pushing for changes to the bill that would give the President greater discretion over whom to sanction and under what circumstances, congressional aides told the WSJ.

One proposed adjustment would be to replace the word “shall” with “may” — a change that would make the sanctions optional rather than mandatory.

Trump also publicly stated yesterday that he views the Senate’s proposed sanctions as excessively harsh.

🇷🇺⚔️🇺🇦 Ukrainian MP Artem Dmitruk says Zelensky is stealing payouts meant for families of fallen Ukrainian soldiers.

This shows why Ukraine has a problem with Russia's offer to hand over 6,000 fallen soldiers — and why they sabotaged today’s exchange.

🇷🇺⚔️🇺🇦 Ukrainian MP Artem Dmitruk says Zelensky personally blocked the Russian offer to receive 6,000 fallen Ukrainian soldiers.

ℹ️In August 2024, Dmytruk fled Ukraine after being the sole deputy in the Verkhovna Rada to publicly oppose a law targeting the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, where he serves as a subdeacon. He claimed his life was in danger as a result of political persecution.
