Is it possible to strike Russia by launching drones from Ukraine and guiding them from Poland? The technology is ready, and Marian Zablotskyi, a Ukrainian MP, has tested it: "I piloted a drone from abroad". The NATO-Russia military confrontation risks becoming direct and catastrophic.
What was once done in secret has now become public, marking a transition of extreme political gravity. At the beginning of the conflict, the secrecy of centres like Wiesbaden prevented NATO's involvement from appearing excessive. Now, however, operations are conducted openly towards escalation.

Yesterday, Parliament voted for a further increase in military spending
Another £22 billion will be allocated to military defence spending. Minister Giorgetti invoked Article 52 of the Constitution to say that "the defence of the Fatherland is a sacred duty of the citizen". But the figures on the military gap between NATO and Russia help us understand that this is propaganda.

Turkish opponents and journalists in prison but Atlantic leaders remain unfazed
This summit is a blatant application of the double standard policy. NATO preaches democracy and freedom and then meets in Turkey where democracy is trampled and freedom comes at a high price for political opponents, journalists, and human rights activists.
Multiple peace events scheduled across Britain in July 2026, including monthly nuclear vigils at RAF Lakenheath, Women in Black demonstrations, and Durham Miners Gala, amid political tensions over defense spending increases.
New initiatives for peace and against rearmament in Germany are being prepared. Three main events will take place: actions against the Rheinmetall arms factory in Berlin, the Attac - Summer Academy in Frankfurt, and the Flag Day of Mayors for Peace in over 600 cities.
The demonstration – culminating in the area of EU institutions – called for the allocation of the 800 billion euros planned for rearmament to social causes. Over eight hundred organisations mobilised. In the evening, a meeting was held at the Royal Library to define the next initiatives.
The shooting down of a drone in Latvia by a NATO aircraft raises the complex issue of the risks at the borders with Russia caused by the war in Ukraine. In May, there had been incursions by drones suspected of being Russian in the Baltic states, but those were also Ukrainian.
A murky tender has crowned the US F-35 fighter jet as the winner, turning Switzerland from a neutral country into one dependent on exclusive US technology. And now there aren't enough funds to purchase the 36 aircraft agreed at a "fixed price".
