Zasto je poenta u dometu? Evropa je u dometu ruskih nukleanih raketa vec decenijama. Kao i USA, bez obzira na big beautiful ocean (ili dva) izmedju.

Orban i Sijarto, Trumpovi saveznici. Sumnjam da je previse ljudi iznenadjeno ovim. Onomad, kada je bio u Srbiji, ostao sam sokiran nebulozama koje je izgovarao, cak i Zaharova i Medvedev imaju stila u odnosu na njega.

cnn Russian forces have begun a spring offensive in eastern Ukraine, including the use of dozens of tanks and armored vehicles, according to the Ukrainian military and analysts. “With changing weather conditions, the Russian aggressor has stepped up pressure across several sections of the front,” Ukrainian military chief Oleksandr Syrskyi said Friday. “For several days running, the number of combat engagements has exceeded 200,” he added – claiming that the Russians were losing more than 1,000 soldiers a day. “Active troop movements, reinforced artillery, tactical aviation and the widespread use of UAVs (drones) are being observed across all sectors, indicating that the Russian army is preparing for a further offensive,” Dmytro Zaporozhets of Ukraine’s 11th Corps told Ukrainian broadcaster Suspilne on Saturday. One focus of Russian attacks has been the town of Lyman in Donetsk, at the edge of what’s known as Ukraine’s fortress belt in the region, and a key strongpoint guarding the larger city of Sloviansk. Ukraine’s Third Corps said Saturday that the Russians had used nearly 30 armored vehicles along with more than 500 infantry in the area. But the Russian “attacks were thwarted on all fronts,” said the Corps’ commander, Brig. Gen. Andriy Biletsky.

Ne nuklearne elektrane, ionako Iran ima samo jednu (sa jednim reaktorom), nego druge elektrane, na gas, ugalj, vetar, naftu, dizel, solarne, vetroparkove i hidroelektrane. Iran preti potpunom blokadom Hormuza i gadjanjem sve energetske infrastrukture koja im je u dometu a koja je povezana sa Zapadom, kolektivnim naravno. Da vidimo ko ce prvi da trepne.

cnn A federal judge on Friday voided various parts of a restrictive press policy rolled out by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth last year, ruling that they trampled on the constitutional rights of reporters who seek to cover the US military from within its sprawling headquarters. The ruling from senior US District Judge Paul Friedman is a major blow to Hegseth’s effort to exert greater control over press coverage and comes as reporting on the Defense Department has ramped up amid the war in Iran and the US operation earlier this year in Venezuela.

Uz Trumpovu pretnju da ce unistiti iranske elektrane, nije lose znati da Iran dobija el energiju najcesce iz gasnih elektrana, i ima ih otprilike 110 u celoj zemlji. Pored njh ima i solarne, hidro, geotermalne i elektrane na naftu, dizel, vetar i ugalj, ali i jednu nuklearnu elektranu sa jednim reaktorom, koju, nadam se, cak ni Trump nece da naredi da se bombarduje. Od drugih vesti, u oko mi je pala ona da je KSA proterala iranske diplomate.

bbc Russian President Vladimir Putin has said Moscow remains a "loyal friend and reliable partner to Tehran during this difficult time" in a message to Iran's new supreme leader and president. In a greeting marking the first day of the Iranian new year, Putin tells Mojtaba Khamenei and Masoud Pezeshkian he hopes the Iranian people will "overcome these difficult trials with dignity", according to a Kremlin statement.

bbc The former commander of UK Joint Forces Command says the UK "needs to be certain" if two missiles fired at the joint US-UK military base Diego Garcia were launched from Iran. General Sir Richard Barrons tells the Today programme on BBC Radio 4 that it was previously thought that Iran's missiles had a range of 2,000km (1,243 miles) but the base is about 3,800km (2,361 miles) from Iran.

Otprilike 140 miliona barela Iranske nafte ce biti uskoro na trzistu, posto je USA skinula sankcije na iransku naftu, kako kaze Mike Waltz 'very temporary'. Pa kaze, 140 miliona, puta 110 dolara jednako - lepa svotica. Moze lepo da se zaradi, mozda cak i da se kupi neki avion Trumpu? Prosle nedelje se oko 100 miliona tona ruske nafte naslo na trzistu, a za sledecu nedelju bi mogli nekako i da 'caste' Severnu Koreju, ne ide da samo jedan autoritarni rezim ne oseti blagodet rada aktuelne americke administracije. Sve ide po planu.

Jasno mi je to, samo deluje cudno da se neki tankeri zapute na toliki put bez neke 'sigurne luke'. Inace Rusija vec godinama izvozi naftu, cak bih rekao poklanja severnokorejskom rezimu.

bbc US actor Sean Penn has been gifted an Oscar-shaped award made from war-damaged rail metal by Ukraine, after he skipped Sunday's ceremony to visit the war-torn country. Penn, 65, won his third Academy Award for his supporting actor role in political thriller One Battle Another but was absent from the ceremony. In a video posted by Oleksandr Pertsovskyi, the CEO of Ukrainian Railways, Pertsovskyi tells Penn: "You're missing Oscars... So we made this one. This is from the railcar that was damaged by the Russians". A long-time advocate for Ukraine, Penn has visited several times since the Kremlin launched its full-scale invasion of the country four years ago. He gifted one of his Oscars to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in 2022.

cnn President Donald Trump called NATO allies “cowards” for not helping the US secure the Strait of Hormuz, which remains effectively shut as global oil prices rise. Strikes have damaged Middle East energy infrastructure and US gas prices have spiked further.

Dva tankera sa naftom i gasom iz Rusije stizu ovih dana u Havanu. Bas me zanima reakcija USA, za sada niko od visih zvanicnika nije nista komentarisao.

bbc Qatar's energy minister says its liquefied natural gas (LNG) export capacity will be reduced by 17% over the next five years as a result of an Iranian attack on the Ras Laffan facility.

bbc A representative of Tehran in Iran’s parliament (Majlis), Somayeh Rafiei, says lawmakers are pursuing a proposal under which countries will be obliged to pay tolls and taxes to Iran, if the Strait of Hormuz is used as a secure route for the passage of ships, the transit of energy, and the provision of food security. According to a report from the ISNA news agency, Rafiei, speaking at a public gathering in Tehran’s Valiasr Square, highlighted Iran’s authority in “ensuring the security of the Strait of Hormuz and safeguarding the nation’s interests” saying: "We have deprived our enemies of their former comforts, and they are now unable to accept this reality; they simply cannot endure it."

bbc Under questioning from Senate Democrats, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard stopped short of endorsing Donald Trump’s claim that Iran posed an imminent threat to the US. “It is not the intelligence community’s responsibility to determine what is and isn’t an imminent threat. That is up to the president,” Gabbard said. Democratic Senator Jon Ossoff replied: “You’re evading a question because to provide a candid response to the committee would contradict a statement by the White House." The tense exchange highlighted Gabbard’s awkward position on Iran. During Trump’s first term in office Gabbard was a vocal opponent of US military intervention in Iran.

bbc Iran's Ministry of Intelligence says in a statement that it has confiscated "hundreds of Starlink devices sent by the enemy" - referring to the US and Israel, Iranian news outlets are reporting. The statement says that according to law, acquiring and using Starlink is a "crime" and during the war anyone doing so will be dealt with at the "highest penalty". Using Starlink in Iran carries a punishment of up to two years in prison.

cnn Iran itself is shipping oil through the strait in almost the same volumes as before the war, earning the much-needed cash to sustain its economy and war effort. In addition, there were already millions of barrels of Iranian crude oil at sea looking for buyers before the conflict began. Tanker tracking data and satellite images show that Iranian crude has flowed through the strait even as the conflict has crippled exports of crude and natural gas from nearby Persian Gulf countries. Energy analysts at trade data and analytics company Kpler estimated Thursday that Iran had been able to export 12 million barrels since the conflict began on February 28. Maritime intelligence company TankerTrackers has an even higher estimate: 13.7 million barrels as of the middle of last week. Those figures would suggest that Iran is managing to ship about 1 million barrels per day (bpd). That compares with its average exports of 1.69 million bpd last year, according to Kpler’s data. According to Iran’s semi-official Fars news agency, Iran has also been able to increase its natural gas exports. It quoted Iraq’s electricity ministry as saying that natural gas imports from Iran last week tripled to 18 million cubic meters per day.

Ne vidim kako se moze saradjivati sa psihopatom i monstrumom ciji je cilj da te unisti. Da mu se pune dzepovi novcem EU poreskih obaveznika? Ne bih rekao, cak mi se cini da bi svi koji krenu u neku saradnju sa njima mogli da se okarakterisu kao 'tupsoni'.

@nemanjaol Odlican grafikon, steta samo sto nema Kine na njemu. Zanimljivo kako je Trump uspeo da obori prodaju EV u USA, ali je jos zanimljivije da zemlja poput Japana, koja sama proizvodi gomilu hibrida i EV stagnira kad je rec o kupovini novih elektricnih vozila. Inace, Urugvaj sampioni, selim se tamo.

Jebemliga i ja, ali nije bilo ozbiljnijeg evropskog lidera koji ga (Putina prim autora) nije molio ili pokusao da urazumi. Zasto je srecniji kad vidi smrt i nesrecu miliona i desetine miliona ljudi, mozemo da nagadjamo samo (mada nauka ima vec profile autoritarnih lidera), ali to je druga prica.
