  US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has ordered senior military officials to develop a budget plan that would slash defence spending by 8%, a dramatic cut which could reshape military end-strength and readiness for decades.   “February 20 is the day when we remember and commemorate those who made their choice — to be free, to build a strong, European Ukraine, and to resist subjugation. They sacrificed the most precious thing — their lives — so that we could live in a free state. It was during these days in 2014 that Russia chose war, taking its first steps...

 “Last night, a Russian attack drone with a high-explosive warhead struck the shelter protecting the world from radiation at the destroyed 4th power unit of the Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant. This shelter was built by Ukraine together with other countries of Europe and the world, together with America – all those committed to real security for humanity.

 The Trump administration’s freeze of foreign funding has begun impacting an international effort to hold Russia responsible for alleged war crimes in Ukraine, according to numerous sources and a Ukrainian document seen by Reuters, halting dozens of jobs and tens of millions of dollars in aid.
