Putins mobilization is beginning to reach ordinary households.
Russian civilians are receiving military summonses, with those who fail to report facing travel bans and restrictions on driver’s licenses. This man asks: “Who needs this?”
Japan, under the pretext of events in Ukraine, without delving into the causes of this conflict, imposed sanctions against Russia that were unprovoked on our part.
Putin: Several countries are attempting to restrict the movement of Russian vessels. If Western nations seize Russian commercial ships, Moscow will respond in kind.
Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić on what Putin wants:
"What I believe is that he wants to take control of entire Donbas, and then I think he'll be ready for the end of the war. He still needs to take full control of Donetsk and Luhansk."
U.S. intelligence assesses Putin may strike a NATO member in the coming years to test the alliance's resolve. Scenarios range from cyberattack to limited ground incursion, per the Wall Street Journal.
Trump has warmed toward Zelensky after Ukraine's battlefield gains and drone capabilities, now viewing him as a stronger leader and growing more skeptical of Putin, per WSJ.

President Putin:
In the western part of Ukraine, there are lands that Stalin gifted to Ukraine after WW2. Yes, it was Stalin who gifted those lands to Ukraine.
But he gifted them within the framework of a single state.
Apparently, it never occurred to him that a situation like today's could arise.
By the way, I am sure that sooner or later, Ukraine will lose these western lands.
What belonged to Poland, Hungary, and Romania will eventually, historically, return to its place.
There was only one guarantor of Ukraine's territorial integrity, and that was Russia. But they found it necessary, possible, and beneficial for themselves to declare Russia their enemy
Zelensky: "Putin is preparing the conditions for expanding mobilization in Russia." Ukraine holds comprehensive intelligence on Moscow's plans for the autumn.

Trump:
President Xi, at our recent meeting in Beijing, China, told me that he would not, under any circumstances, give or sell Weapons to the Islamic Republic of Iran — And that statement included Chinese Companies. Considering our relationship, I take him at his word and, besides, I am doing him very big favors, also.
Likewise, President Putin, despite the horrible War going on in Ukraine (The relationship remains, as it does with President Zelenskyy), told me that he would not sell Weapons to Iran. He understands that I do not sell Weapons to Ukraine, but to NATO Countries. They pay full price, and how those Weapons are distributed, I have no idea. Therefore, two major Countries that people speak of often in terms of Iran are, in my opinion, not participating. If they did, it would be very bad for them — Certainly not in their best interests. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP
