Trump should not fall for Putin’s gambit.

Washington should not let the fox into the henhouse and allow Russia to mediate between Israel and Iran.

Cheap talk. He faces massive protests back home and he needs to buy more time with Brussels.

Meanwhile, Belgrade keeps strong ties with Russian intelligence and security, which is all it matters.
President Vucic at the Ukraine-South-Eastern Europe Summit:

Serbia is ready to rebuild one or two Ukrainian cities or a region to demonstrate its support for #Ukraine.

Ukraine can always count on Serbia for humanitarian support and political support of Ukrainian territorial integrity.

Utter garbage news for the Western audience. Vucic is in a deep trouble domestically with massive protests and now he is playing his typical game for Brussels.

Also…He can’t build infrastructure in his country, let alone Ukraine.

Don’t fall for this nonsense.
⚡️Vucic offers to help rebuild Ukrainian cities, reaffirms support for Ukraine's territorial integrity.

"I would like to take one or two cities or regions that we could rebuild. I think that would be very clear and noticeable to the Ukrainian people," Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said.

The Russian president has shamelessly used VE day to paint a distorted version of WWII.

The best way to undermine Putin’s nasty revision of history is through mockery.
