The American Conservative (USA): Are hawks or doves in a bad mood?

Russia was able to create a strategic weapon that in many ways surpasses the American arsenal, writes TAC. How did the US come to this? - the author of the article is perplexed.

Global Times (China): Uncle Sam's dirty role in the Ukrainian crisis

The United States is to blame for what is happening in Ukraine, which at one time ignored the advice on non-expansion of NATO to the east, writes Global Times. Foreign experts call the expansion of the alliance a rash decision and a tragic mistake and advise Ukraine to reconsider its attitude towards the West and Russia.

Long before the Russian special operation, Ukrainian politicians and the military declared that the Turkish Bayraktar drones would give them a powerful weapon against the "aggressor country". Ukraine started purchasing these UAVs after Azerbaijan's victory in the second Karabakh war – it was then that these drones had a brilliant reputation. Why are the Bayraktars almost powerless now?

After the refusal of the United States to purchase Russian oil, there is more and more speculation that the West may refuse to supply another type of fuel from Russia – nuclear. We are talking about uranium and special fuel assemblies for nuclear power plants. Ukraine has already announced its rejection of them. But what will happen if these plans are implemented? Nothing good for the West.
