On 10 July, around 11:30, Lithuanian Armed Forces detected an object approaching from the direction of Belarus. The Armed Forces said the Air Force activated NATO fighter jets already in the air by switching them from training to mission mode.
Shortly after detection, the object fell to the ground. The mission was canceled. Military units notified the State Border Guard Service (VSAT), and troops were sent to the crash site.

Russia targets Ukraine daily with hundreds of Gerbera drones, used as decoys alongside explosive Shaheds to overwhelm air defenses. Recently, some of these cheap styrofoam Gerberas have begun carrying small warheads, increasing civilian casualties.
The drone that crashed in Lithuania may have veered off course during last night’s Russian attack on Ukraine — or it may have been a deliberate probe to test Lithuania’s and NATO’s response ahead of potential future aggression against the Baltic States.
He does not want the war but he cannot resist the forces within NATO and USA that do want the war.
Some of those forces are economic, some KOBK game theory aimed at destroying Russia AND Europe, and some, perhaps the most influential, are Jewish Supremist forces.
We have seen JS play their hand in Russia after the fall of the Soviet Union and in Ukraine during the long run-up to the Ukraine War.
Starmer is Jewish as is Boris Johnson, just two of many who appear to be wholehearted Jewish Supremists and who have fought against peace and in favor of continuing the War. Victorina Nuland in USA is similar.
I have seen analyses saying Trump is fighting against the ‘inertia of war’. Some truth in that but there are people applying force to that ‘inertia’, lots of force. They have an agenda and it is not to benefit Russia or Europe or USA. ABN
Secretary of State Marco Rubio met with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov on the sidelines of a meeting of foreign ministers from the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) in Kuala Lumpur today. Against the backdrop of multiple questions to him about the outcome of their discussion, let us first discuss the problem being avoided.
In the mind of President Putin, and in the growing awareness of the American electorate, the President of the United States does not control the Intelligence Community. It is entirely possible for the USIC to take America deeper toward war despite the President and people of America not wanting that to happen. Putin is simply prepared for that outcome.
This reality explains a dynamic where President Trump engages with President Putin in an effort to stop the war in Ukraine, yet President Putin continues the war in Ukraine; because ultimately he knows President Trump does not control the elements that facilitate the Ukraine military.
People struggle to accept this dynamic. However, I would remind everyone that right now YOU are paying for the entire government of Ukraine to exist. Including the Ukraine govt payrolls, retirement benefits, healthcare and operational budget of Ukraine overall.
Americans do not want to pay for that. President Trump does not want to pay for that. Yet, here we are, paying for that.
The same inertia process applies to the literal Ukraine war and conflict with Russia.
You might not want it. President Trump might not want it. Yet, here again we are providing weapons, intelligence, satellite communication, personnel and systems for the war.
This is the reality of the situation regardless of your/my willingness to accept it. This reality is what President Vladimir Putin discusses and accepts.
The problem for President Trump is not that this reality exists; the bigger political problem for President Trump is that people are increasingly becoming aware of this reality.
Now, many people are recently arguing against this reality. However, these are the same voices who previously stated President Trump could unilaterally declassify information within the same silo process that is designed to control his declassification authority. Empirically, and in reality, these voices are wrong.
Something needs to change. That something is generally that President Trump has to either: 1. admit publicly he does not control the U.S. Intelligence Community (very ugly); or 2. take control of that intelligence community (even uglier).
In this element of consideration you would be well served to insert the recent experience of Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard; who, intentionally or not, opened the pandora’s box containing this issue, and look what happened to her.
There was a reason DNI Tulsi Gabbard sat silently recently in the very public Cabinet meeting. I will return to this in a moment.
♦ President Trump does not have control over the USIC activity in Ukraine. If he did, he would have been fully aware of the drone strikes against the Russian strategic bomber fleet before it was carried out. By his own admission he did not know.
If so, it may also be true that Trump has taken full possession of the files and videos and is thus now able to blackmail the blackmailers (mostly Jewish Supremists) while also controlling every Epstein perp anywhere near government or societal power.
I am going to go with this interpretation as most likely, for now. If we observe a respectful silence coming from JS and many other assorted warmongers, parasites and crooks, we will have more signs that the Epstein files have been turned on their nasty little heads and have become a benefit to a properly governed USA.
Another point worth making, is the scenario described above also explains and exonerates Patel, Bondi, and Bongino’s apparently dishonest and cowardly behavior. ABN
This video highlights or further confirms Trump is in control of more than USA.
The main power question in my mind is how much control or sway do Jewish Supremists have over Trump? How much do JS control USA? We know they were intimately and very significantly behind the Biden debacle-presidency, the Ukraine War, the Mayorkas-Harris invasion of illegals, Big Tech censorship and spying. What we don’t know is how much has Trump wrestled away from them? IF Trump has the Epstein tapes and files and IF he is using them to control USA’s former JS controllers, that would be wonderful. I am looking for signs pointing either way. ABN
This is speculative but I like it. It’s possible, even probable. Why waste it and what better way to use it than turn the tables on those who have seized power through using it. ABN
UPDATE: If Trump did seize the Epstein evidence, has the videos and all the names of bribed ‘law-makers’, that would be a perfect stealth KOBK move. In one fell swoop, he would control all of them. It’s also possible he is pretending he has the files and they have no way to be sure so are careful not to test him. ABN
The intransigent European Union is hitting a dead end with immovable Trump on the issue of tariffs. The resulting dynamic is what we would expect given 75 years of the Marshall Plan (European Recovery Plan) as part of the EU’s only point of reference.
In order for the EU to maintain its socialistic form of government, it needs to continue the economic benefits from one-way tariffs that exploits the American consumer market. President Trump’s plan to force reciprocity is against its entire economic foundation. The EU simply cannot fathom life without the status quo.
In many ways the EU is in the same position as Canada. From its perspective, economic reciprocity is not sustainable; it would have to change its social compacts. This is the core of the conflict.
The EU trade delegation hit a brick wall in Washington DC, as the U.S. trade team reiterated the baseline tariffs are not something within the negotiation dynamic.
As we highlighted in term-1, these ongoing negotiations with the EU on the issues of trade are extremely challenging. However, in term-2 President Trump’s position is much simpler; why keep arguing about the same problem only to end up in negotiations of intransigence?
Instead, if the EU is going to continue negotiations as a collective, President Trump is now favoring just sending the EU a letter informing them of the tariff rates applied to each of their industrial sectors. This is the most direct and impactful way to end the stalemate.
The EU cannot fathom the new level of ambivalence carried by President Trump, and by extension his trade team, toward the conversation. There is no level of countervailing tariffs the EU can announce that impacts the position of Trump. Even if the EU were to end all trade with the USA, that only feeds into the goals and objectives of the Trump administration.
The EU has no power in this dynamic beyond its purchasing power, and if the EU doesn’t want to level the purchasing – thereby maintaining a trade deficit, then Trump will equalize the financial imbalance with tariffs.
Canada is in the same position, hence its alignment with the EU.
Very strong indication Iran has accepted a new position in the Middle East. This is a good sign and shows serious fighting is probably over across the region.
The GCC and others will become the collective regional hegemon, with some sort of US presence on the sidelines.
Israel has also accepted a new position and appears to have entirely abandoned their zany Jewish Supremist fantasy of a ‘Greater Israel’ ruling over everyone else.
Trump appears to have brokered the deal of the Century.
Now, onto the Russia-Europe-USA alliance that will cement control of the Northern Hemisphere. If Trump accomplishes that, it will be of even greater importance than what is happening in the ME.
Top of the World nations have much more in common than not and all of them are fully capable of complex cooperation.
I am talking about Japan, Korea, Mongolia, Canada and others joining a solid cultural and economic alliance with USA, Russia and Europe. ABN
Group said to want stronger guarantees of permanent end to war as Netanyahu prepares to meet Trump in US
Hamas said it had responded on Friday in “a positive spirit” to a US-brokered Gaza ceasefire proposal and was prepared to enter into talks on implementing the deal which envisages a release of hostages and negotiations on ending the conflict.
US president Donald Trump earlier announced a “final proposal” for a 60-day ceasefire in the nearly 21-month-old war between Israel and Hamas, stating he anticipated a reply from the parties in coming hours.
On Friday evening Hamas wrote on its official website: “The movement has delivered its response to the brotherly mediators, which was characterized by a positive spirit. Hamas is fully prepared, with all seriousness, to immediately enter a new round of negotiations on the mechanism for implementing this framework.”
It was reported last night that President Trump held a quiet meeting with Saudi Arabia Defense Minister Prince Khalid bin Salman in the White House Thursday. This meeting is reported to cover discussions around de-escalation with Iran, the conflict in Gaza and what comes next.
The meeting also comes on the heels of President Trump having a phone call with Russian President Vladimir Putin and work throughout the middle-east region by President Trump Emissary Steve Witkoff and Israeli Strategic Affairs Minister Ron Dermer.
(Via Fox News) Saudi Defense Minister Prince Khalid bin Salman secretly met with President Donald Trump and other key officials in the White House on Thursday to discuss de-escalation efforts with Iran, multiple sources confirmed with Fox News.
Khalid, also known as KBS, is the younger brother of Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.
[…] The talks were also reportedly about ending the war in Gaza and negotiating the release of the remaining hostages – whether dead or alive – and about working toward peace in the Middle East. (more)
Previously it was reported by Israeli media that President Trump was working on a comprehensive solution to Gaza that would encompass peace in the middle-east by normalizing ties with Israel, isolating Iran and giving them fewer options for regional instability. Expanding the Abraham Accords provides the diplomatic vehicle for this approach.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will visit the White House on Monday, July 7th.
It is strongly rumored that Syria and Lebanon would soon join the Abraham Accords, with the possibility of Saudi Arabia joining thereafter. Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman (MBS) is a key figure hoping to bring a new era to the middle east absent of conflict and focused on prosperity.
These negotiations are likely to bear huge fruits. There are significant general parallels between Trump’s work in the Middle East and with Russia. The talks in both regions are larger than just the wars in either region; in both regions Trump has aimed at peaceful accords at the highest levels. In a sense, he has gone above the fray and focused on long-term solutions. By going over the heads of Europe and Israel, Trump has wrestled the crux of these regional dynamics from them. And just as importantly, he appears to have largely seized control of American warmongers overtly and covertly involved in both regions. Neocon RINOs are quiet as are American Jewish Supremists, or at least Trump and most others are not listening to them. ABN
You want to cut the Gordian knot, change the geopolitical world, create a strategic alignment; but to do that you need Putin to accept you do not view him as the enemy. You also need to prove you have control over the apparatus he views as a threat.
How do you prove you have control over the agency?
Trump instructs the CIA to send one public message. A message that: 1) outlines the CIA’s dual targeting of Trump and Putin; 2) that simultaneously proves your control over the CIA silo.
Was this the motive for the timing of the message from CIA Director John Ratcliffe?
It does look like Trump is trying to do this. This is a deep KOBK (Kill-Or-Be-Killed) move, though instead of ‘killing’ Putin/ Russia, Trump is proving to them that he does not want to ‘kill’ them. He wants cooperation and a solid alliance, which both leaders apparently deeply understand will be the greatest foreign policy outcome of this Century if they can achieve it. And it’s looking good, in my opinion. This is a very exciting interpretation about a super important strategy both leaders appear to be working toward. ABN
… Put yourself in Russian President Vladimir Putin’s shoes against the backdrop of 35 previously exiled Russian officials from the United States as a result of the 2016 Intelligence Community Assessment and Joint Analysis Report {BACKGROUND}.
QUESTION: What exactly would Vladimir Putin think about this admission from the CIA?
CIA Director John Ratcliffe admits the former CIA and FBI fabricated the intelligence that led to the expulsion of Russian officials under the false premise of Russia “hacking” the 2016 election. Why now?
How would Putin interpret this very public message?
President Trump then publicly says at the G7 in Canada, it was a big mistake to take Russia out of the G8; further saying -repeatedly- that sanctions hurt both sides, and there is a cost to sanctions.
Trump then bombs the Iranian nuclear facilities; and two days later Putin says there is no doubt in his mind that President Trump is committed to peace.
Then today the U.S. says the 2016 predicate for removing Russian officials from the USA was based on fraud within the intelligence community, per CIA Director John Ratcliffe.
Good relations with Russia are of major importance. Great relations with Russia, if established, will be among the greatest foreign policy accomplishments ever. ABN
