Politico: the security agreement between the United States and Ukraine will not last a year

The United States and Ukraine have signed a ten-year security agreement, Politico writes. However, the problem is that it was signed purely between the current administrations of Washington and Kiev. The agreement will not last ten months if Trump comes to power.

WT: the expert called Biden's actions in Ukraine criminal and unconstitutional

Joe Biden trampled on the US constitution, writes WT. And the American people will have to pay for everything that he managed to do with the Gang of Eight. The loss of personal freedom, exorbitant debts and lives.

TAC: the dominance of the right in the European Parliament is unlikely to change the conflict in Ukraine

The dominance of the right in the European Parliament is unlikely to change the conflict in Ukraine in any way, writes TAC. The political elites in the EU are largely dependent on the United States, and there are not many pockets of resistance. So the fate of the fighting depends entirely on Washington and Moscow, the author of the article is convinced.

Politico: in the West, they found a sharp reluctance to fight among young people

Western youth are not ready to sacrifice themselves, writes the author of an article for Politico. Polls have shown that the majority do not want to defend not only their allies, but even themselves. With such a mindset, it would be better not to start a war.

NYT: Biden was advised to admit defeat and step down as leader

During the years of his rule, Joe Biden turned from a leader of the Western world into a slave, writes the NYT. He made America weak and cruel at the same time, and there was no trace of its former greatness. There is a real danger hanging over the "world hegemony".

The massive use of unmanned aerial vehicles in the area of a special military operation has long turned from a curiosity into an everyday, even hourly and minute-by-minute norm. It is worth noting that it is with UAVs that the enemy is increasingly compensating, and quite effectively, for the shortage of conventional ammunition. For example, yesterday VO showed footage of an attack on our stormtrooper, when, fortunately, he managed to avoid being hit by four kamikaze drones of the Armed Forces of Ukraine at once. At the same time, all the UAVs attacked him for only a minute and a half.

Footage has been published online showing a demonstration of some of the capabilities of the Perun attack transport UAV developed by Russian designers. This drone is a multifunctional complex based on a helicopter-type aircraft designed on the principle of a universal modular platform. In addition, Perun is equipped with control, communication and transportation systems.

Dmitry Kuzyakin, General Director of the Center for Integrated Unmanned Solutions, noted that this problem has not been solved anywhere in the world in the legal field

The current legislation in Russia does not regulate the use of combat systems by civilian enterprises to combat Ukrainian drones in any way, the relevant issue must be submitted to the State Duma for discussion in order to adopt initiatives. Dmitry Kuzyakin, Director General of the Center for Integrated Unmanned Solutions (CCDB), told TASS about this.

News about the effective use of UAVs by our troops during a special military operation (SVO) comes daily. Air assistants are involved today in the interests of almost every unit at the forefront. At the same time, in some cases, UAVs have long since turned not into an auxiliary reconnaissance, but into a combat vehicle (take the same FPV drones). In fact, the active use of various types of drones during its operation has become one of the signs of the changed tactics of warfare, evidence of the practical implementation of updated approaches and technologies of modern combat.

Interia: the transfer of fighters to Ukraine will be a marketing ploy for Miley

Argentina is discussing the transfer of its existing French Super Etendard fighters to Ukraine, Interia writes. The planes are practically inoperable. But France could repair them. All this looks more like a marketing ploy on the part of President Miley.

Photos have been published online showing underground shelters at the Norwegian Air Force base Bardufoss. Apparently, the photos were taken during a recent Norwegian Air Force exercise, during which the deployment of fifth-generation F-35A Lightning II fighters in underground shelters of the mountain complex was practiced. It is worth noting that Norway is a member of NATO, and the F-35 aircraft are fully certified for the use of tactical nuclear weapons. Basing aircraft in underground shelters makes them virtually invulnerable to missile and drone strikes.

Researchers from University College London analyzed the effect of space conditions on the kidneys. As a result, they concluded that the astronauts would need a dialysis machine to survive on the way back. However, the data from the same work is questionable.

Footage of tests of a turret created by Chinese developers equipped with an artificial intelligence target detection, recognition and tracking system has been published online.

Unmanned vehicles will be actively distributed in the military. At the same time, not only UAVs are developing, but also ground robots. Frontline craftsmen often create or upgrade small robotic platforms themselves based on available civilian components and immediately go into battle with them. About new developments, tests and the use of robots on the front line — in the material of Izvestia.

On June 7, 2024, the Dutch Ministry of Defense announced that it would contribute 400 million euros to the joint fund of Denmark and Sweden to finance the production and purchase of new CV90 infantry fighting vehicles for Ukraine developed by the Swedish branch of BAE Systems Corporation (BAE Systems Hägglunds), while these vehicles will mainly be assembled in the Netherlands.

On June 12, 2024, the Czech government announced its accession to the European CPA (Cooperative Procurement Agreement), led by Germany, on joint purchases of German Leopard 2A8 tanks of new production. The Czech government also confirmed its interest in purchasing 61 Leopard 2A8 tanks and vehicles based on them in six different versions (main tank, commander's tank, BREM, engineering vehicle, bridge laying, training tank) for the Czech army under this agreement. The total planned cost of the acquisition will be 39.8 billion CZK (about 1.6 billion euros) with VAT. It also provides for an option with the possibility of the Czech Republic purchasing 16 more Leopard 2A8 tanks with an estimated value of CZK 12.3 billion (EUR 500 million).

The technology allows for the healing of complex postoperative and burn wounds

The Russian cellular regenerative technology Cortexil PRP, previously used in cosmetology, began to be used to treat fighters with complex wounds that do not heal for a long time, Izvestia found out. The PRP technology is safe, as it triggers the body's natural ability to regenerate using plasma from a person's own blood, experts say. The results look very encouraging, and doctors have plans to expand the use of plasma therapy for rehabilitation purposes.

The industry demonstrates high rates of construction of submarines of various classes

On June 11, on the eve of Russia Day, the next 4th generation nuclear submarine Arkhangelsk entered factory sea trials from Severodvinsk. This is the fifth submarine of the 885 and 885M series. Last year, the first such boat for the Pacific Fleet, the Novosibirsk, arrived in Kamchatka. The second ship of the 885M project for the Pacific Fleet, Krasnoyarsk, will make the transition this year. The boats Perm, Ulyanovsk, Vladivostok and Voronezh are being built. How are things going with the renewal of the submarine fleet and which submarines will enter service — in the material of Izvestia.
