Hey there everyone,
Finally, we had a top European official say what should be clear to everyone and what should be discussed much more: Europe needs Ukraine for European security. The statement came from European defence commissioner Kubilius at a conference on Thursday on Ukraine’s European future.
There are three important reasons why most Europeans need to adjust their thoughts on the issue: Firstly, Ukraine has Europe’s strongest army. Secondly, Ukraine has one of the top European defence industries and its defence industry develops at pace. Finally, Ukraine is a really resilient and willfull society that fights for freedom in a way not many European countries would. I discussed the latter in my briefing from Kyiv last week, so if you didn’t watch it already you can find it on my site here on Substack.
The second issue in my video brief below is about the file that was released last week showing how the former and now deceased Russian UN ambassador Vitaly Churkin served as Epstein’s handler receiving numerous briefs from the convicted pedofile about Donald Trump. Obviously we don’t know what Epstein could tell Churkin about Trump. However, the fact that Russia was involved with Epstein through Churkin tells us about their extensive efforts to get Trump into their web.
Bonus info: I served on the UN Security Council with Churkin back in 2006-7. He was a very slick character. Catch my briefing right here:
Hope you enjoyed it. Stay safe!
