Arnold Fabrikant came from Odesa, where both his parents were doctors. Arnold's father Yefim and his unit tried to hold off the Germans when they surrounded Kyiv. Yefim killed himself rather than fall into German hands. Arnold, then 20 years old, spent the next four years on the front and ended the war shooting his way into Berlin.David Horovitch reads Arnold's story, which is based on an interview conducted in Odesa by Natalia Rezanova in 2004.

Ukraine Matters: Analyzing NATO Summit & Defense Strategies with Georgijs Ivanovs Georgijs, the founder of the Ukraine Matters channel, discusses the latest developments in NATO's support for Ukraine, defense spending, and Ukraine's innovative wartime strategies. Topics include the impact of European funding, the production of military supplies within Ukraine, and the evolving dynamics of drone and missile warfare. The conversation also addresses the potential for Russian economic collapse, the inefficiencies within Russian military tactics, and the broader geopolitical implications of the ongoing war. Georgijs emphasizes the importance of supporting Ukrainian production and the strategic use of resources to counter Russian advancements. Additionally, the discussion touches on the role of AI in modern warfare and the significance of adapting to rapidly changing battlefield technologies.----------Georgijs Ivanovs started the Ukraine Matters channel in 2007, and it has garners 11.5 m views. He started the channel to explain the situation surrounding the war in Ukraine in simple terms. Like myself, he is not Ukrainian, nor is he a military expert. But he has been to Ukraine many times and seen it almost fully (except for Odesa region). He has a lot of good friends in Ukraine, and in fact his wife is Ukrainian, and so feels extremely connected to the invasion that scaled up in February 2022. ----------LINKS: @UkraineMatters  ----------CHAPTERS:00:00 Introduction to Ukraine Matters01:32 NATO Summit Highlights03:04 European Support and Danish Model 2.007:39 Drone Warfare and Innovations10:33 Ukraine's Missile Capabilities16:15 Economic and Military Outlook21:53 Potential Endgame Scenarios26:34 Conclusion and Final Thoughts----------Car for Ukraine has once again joined forces with a group of influencers, creators, and news observers during this summer.

ZELAIA: Este es el hecho que podría presionar a EEUU para entrar directamente en la guerra de IsraelEl presidente de EEUU, Donald Trump, ha advertido ya que los civiles deben abandonar Teherán, lo que muestra un incremento de la tensión en la guerra entre Irán e Israel, donde los ataques mutuos con misiles no cesan. "Irán está demostrando una capacidad crecientemente mayor sobre Israel", algo previsible, porque el potencial estratégico iraní siempre ha sido mayor. Israel siempre ha tenido la baza de contar con la capacidad militar de EEUU, ha afirmado Adrián Zelaia, presidente de Ekai Group. "Estamos ante un objetivo de escalada donde Israel da por supuesto que serán atacados", y ahora el gobierno de Netanyahu presiona a EEUU para intervenir. Por otro lado, Trump se ha mostrado cariñoso con Rusia, asegurando que nunca debió ser expulsada del G8, un movimiento impulsado por Trudeau y Obama, dejando ver que si no hubiera salido no habría empezado la guerra con Ucrania. El líder estadounidense, Donald Trump, se ha mostrado escéptico con el 18 paquete de sanciones de Europa a Rusia. Adrián Zelaia, ha recordado que después de tantos paquetes de sanciones sin éxito, pues el temor al 18 es menor. "Hasta ahora solo han sido decisiones que han hecho un enorme daño a Europa beneficiando a EEUU". Ahora se espera ver una reactivación del conflicto en Ucrania. Y si el conflicto en Oriente Medio se agrava, Rusia podría avanzar en profundidad en Ucrania, en Sumy, Odesa y Kiev.  Trump mantiene una posición de presión con los aranceles en relación al resto de países. Pero, esta política arancelaria siempre ha tenido más objetivos aparte de la economía. Y en Europa, el objetivo es claro: "Trump está encantado en usar la presión arancelaria para debilitar y hacer daño a las fuerzas políticas en Europa". #eeuu #iran #israel #guerra #pezeshkian #netanyahu #orientemedio #ataque #trump #military #geopolitica #negociostv #zelaiaSi quieres entrar en la Academia de Negocios TV, este es el enlace:   https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwd8Byi93KbnsYmCcKLExvQ/join Síguenos en directo ➡️ https://bit.ly/2Ts9V3pSuscríbete a nuestro canal: https://bit.ly/3jsMzp2Suscríbete a nuestro segundo canal, másnegocios: https://n9.cl/4dca4Visita Negocios TV https://bit.ly/2Ts9V3pMás vídeos de Negocios TV: https://youtube.com/@NegociosTVSíguenos en Telegram: https://t.me/negociostvSíguenos en Instagram: https://bit.ly/3oytWndTwitter: https://bit.ly/3jz6LptFacebook: https://bit.ly/3e3kIuy

VALDECASAS: "La guerra de Israel está uniendo más a Irán con Rusia y China e impulsando a los BRICS"Ignacio García-Valdecasas, embajador retirado, señala que la participación de Estados Unidos, Reino Unido y posiblemente Francia en los ataques de Israel contra Irán es evidente, tanto por el apoyo logístico como por el uso de armamento y ataques cibernéticos. Asegura que Israel ha buscado romper negociaciones entre EE. UU. e Irán y que la escalada ha dinamitado cualquier posibilidad de reactivar el acuerdo nuclear. Valora como plausible que Trump vetara un intento de asesinato del líder supremo iraní, aunque su conducta errática complica la diplomacia internacional. Valdecasas advierte que si el objetivo real de Israel es un cambio de régimen en Irán, esto refuerza el orgullo nacional iraní y estrecha la alianza entre Irán, Rusia, China y Corea del Norte. Considera que, en este contexto, Irán no se sentará a negociar mientras continúen los ataques, y que la crisis podría motivar a otros países a reconsiderar su renuncia al armamento nuclear.Al mismo tiempo,  destaca que la cumbre del G7 en Canadá llega deslucida por las tensiones geopolíticas entre Israel e Irán y las complejas relaciones bilaterales, como la de EE.UU. y Canadá, además de la presencia de México que puede generar cierta tensión. Considera que será una cumbre de trámite donde se reiterarán principios sobre la guerra en Ucrania, sin grandes acuerdos definitivos, y se condenará la proliferación nuclear, en especial la amenaza iraní. Sobre la negociación de paz en Ucrania, explica que Rusia condiciona el alto el fuego a un acuerdo de paz definitivo, mientras que Ucrania y Occidente piden primero el alto al fuego. Además, menciona que el ultimátum ruso a Ucrania insinúa posibles avances hacia Odesa si colapsa el frente ucraniano, complicando el futuro del conflicto.Además, considera que el 18º paquete de sanciones de la Unión Europea contra Rusia, incluyendo el tope al precio del crudo y sanciones a bancos chinos, probablemente tendrá un impacto limitado, al igual que los 17 anteriores. Recuerda que en las negociaciones de Estambul de 2022 se prometió a Zelensky que las sanciones pondrían de rodillas a Rusia, algo que claramente no ha ocurrido. Valdecasas subraya que, lejos de debilitarse, Rusia parece hoy más fuerte militar e industrialmente, lo que pone en duda la eficacia real de las medidas económicas aplicadas por la UE.#israel  #guerra #iran #rusia #china #brics #orientemedio #conflicto #eeuu #trump #ataque #nuclearwar #geopolitica #negociostv #valdecasas Si quieres entrar en la Academia de Negocios TV, este es el enlace:   https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwd8Byi93KbnsYmCcKLExvQ/join Síguenos en directo ➡️ https://bit.ly/2Ts9V3pSuscríbete a nuestro canal: https://bit.ly/3jsMzp2Suscríbete a nuestro segundo canal, másnegocios: https://n9.cl/4dca4Visita Negocios TV https://bit.ly/2Ts9V3pMás vídeos de Negocios TV: https://youtube.com/@NegociosTVSíguenos en Telegram: https://t.me/negociostvSíguenos en Instagram: https://bit.ly/3oytWndTwitter: https://bit.ly/3jz6LptFacebook: https://bit.ly/3e3kIuy

Reporting from the Ukrainian port city of Odesa, Andrew Mueller talks to leaders – domestic and international – about why Ukraine’s struggle for survival matters around the globe.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's been a week of escalating global tensions. Israel launched a series of targeted strikes on Iran – codenamed Operation Rising Lion – aimed at crippling Tehran's nuclear capabilities. Iran has vowed a swift response. In the United States, protests erupted in Los Angeles over immigration enforcement, as federal officers intensified roundups of undocumented migrants – part of President Donald Trump's broader plan for mass deportations. Meanwhile in Ukraine, Kyiv, Kharkiv, and Odesa came under heavy fire. Russia launched one of its largest aerial assaults yet, striking the capital with a wave of 315 drones and ballistic missiles. And in Europe, NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte delivered a stark warning in London: defence spending is no longer optional –it's existential.

Edition No157 | 10-06-2025 - Putin has ordered and executed one of the largest attacks on Ukraine's capital since the full-scale war began. Why? Because he can. Kyiv and Odesa came under massive bombardment in the early hours of June 10. Explosions were heard across the capital as air defence systems were activated, engaging targets that included ballistic missiles and drones. The full toll is not known, but four people have been reported injured in Kyiv, according to local authorities. In the southern city of Odesa two men were killed and at least eight civilians were wounded. One more person suffered shock. Again, this may not be the final toll. Zelensky proclaimed this one of the largest attacks on Kyiv to date, and few people would have slept through though the intense bombardment that lasted several hours. "Russian missiles and Shahed drones strike out the efforts of the United States and others around the world to force Russia into peace," he wrote on X. "For yet another night, instead of a ceasefire, there were massive strikes with Shahed drones, cruise and ballistic missiles."----------Links: https://kyivindependent.com/waves-of-explosions-rock-kyiv-amid-russian-missile-drone-attack/https://kyivindependent.com/trump-redirects-20-000-anti-drone-missiles-meant-for-ukraine-zelensky-confirms/ ----------SUMMER FUNDRAISERSNAFO & Silicon Curtain community - Let's help help 5th SAB together https://www.help99.co/patches/nafo-silicon-curtain-communityWe are teaming up with NAFO 69th Sniffing Brigade to provide 2nd Assault Battalion of 5th SAB with a pickup truck that they need for their missions.

The United Nations has confirmed what residents of Kherson, and Zarina Zabrisky, revealed nearly a year ago: Russia's drone attacks on civilians were systematic, premeditated and intended to instil terror and forcibly displace the population. A deliberate war crime. ----------Zarina Zabrisky is an American writer based in the Bay Area, California.

Andrew Mueller reports from the Black Sea Security Forum, asking why Odesa matters beyond Ukraine’s borders and how Ukrainians have managed to keep fighting more than three years into Russia’s brutal full-scale invasion.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

“When the war broke out, Konstantin and Vlada were both 29 years old. They had been together for eight years, and married for five. The Odessa couple originally planned to flee for safety when the full-scale invasion began. But with bags packed and ready to depart, they could not bring themselves to leave.” When would a fake shrink get to talk with a married couple with a career photographing from the harshest edges of the war in to talk about their relationship? What a privilege!!! Btw, they learned to do war photography when Ukraine was invaded. Literally trial by fire. When they were first together and married, they had an extremely successful, creative, wedding photography business. Konstantin and Vlada are in NYC on the last leg of their tour throughout the U.S. to accept an award from the US Embassy in Kiev. (I may have some award details wrong here, but you get the point.) As they agreed to be on the show, I told them I wanted to focus on discussing their relationship in such an intense situation, especially since they had begun their practice as wedding photographers. I mean talk about a growth experience! Beyond my imagination. I found them fascinating. And do you know what I found out? When they were first married Va was a chic princess. Always perfectly clean and perfectly coiffed. But then, trenches….

Polens Gewicht in Europa wächst, militärisch, politisch und wirtschaftlich. Der Stichwahl um das Präsidentenamt, in der sich am 1.

In early 2022, as Russian troops massed on Ukraine's border, Tom Mutch, a freelance war reporter, took a trip to Mariupol to take the temperature of this (then) culturally vibrant port on the Sea of Azov.  What stayed with him was the sound of the stray dogs and their "rhythmic and frantic barking, as if they were shouting a warning in unison". Within weeks, the city began a three-month siege and eventual fall but – to the surprise of many including Western powers – not just Kyiv but Mykolaiv, and Odesa held. Over the following months, resistance turned into reconquest and finally into a grinding artillery war of attrition reminiscent of the 1914-18 western front. In The Dogs of Mariupol: Russia's Invasion and the Forging of Ukraine's Iron Generation (Biteback, 2025), Tom Mutch tells the history of the war through members of the “iron generation” he met as a reporter and tells a darker tale of Ukrainian society since Bakhmut. *The author's book recommendations were Intent to Destroy: Russia's Two-Hundred-Year Quest to Dominate Ukraine by Eugene Finkel (Basic Books, 2024) and Empire of Pain: The Secret History of the Sackler Dynasty by Patrick Radden Keefe (Picador, 2021).

Edition No146 | 25-05-2025 - In a clear indication that peace is the last thing on Putin's mind, overnight on May 25th Russia attacked Kyiv and other Ukrainian regions with drones and missiles, in an attack that may constitute the largest of the war, and certainly the largest over several nights. The bombardment killed at least a dozen people including three children, according to local officials. Russia launched 69 missiles and 298 drones, according to Ukraine's Air Force.The attack coincides with Kyiv Day, a city holiday typically celebrated on the last Sunday in May and follows on from one of the heaviest Russian assaults on Kyiv throughout the full-scale war. The Ukrainian Air Force reported 45 cruise missiles were shot down by air defence systems and 266 drones neutralized. 22 locations recorded direct strikes. Kyiv was not the only place targeted or hit. In addition, explosions were reported in Odesa, Dnipro, Mykolaiv, Sumy, Konotop, Chernihiv, Ternopil, and Kharkiv, according to local news outlet Suspilne.----------LINK:https://kyivindependent.com/russia-launches-mass-attack-on-kyiv-ukrainian-cities-for-second-night-in-row/https://kyivindependent.com/explosions-reported-in-kyiv-amid-russian-drone-attack/https://www.themoscowtimes.com/2025/05/24/russia-strikes-kyiv-after-first-stage-of-major-prisoner-swap-a89203https://www.themoscowtimes.com/2025/05/24/russia-says-307-pows-exchanged-with-ukraine-on-second-day-of-swap-a89204https://www.themoscowtimes.com/2025/05/22/trump-putin-call-signals-risky-shift-toward-appeasement-through-trade-a89185https://kyivindependent.com/putin-remains-confident-in-russias-ultimate-victory-in-ukraine-us-intelligence-reports/https://kyivindependent.com/russia-hasnt-faced-enough-pressure-ukrainian-and-foreign-diplomats-react-to-massive-overnight-attack-on-kyiv/----------Your support is massively appreciated!SILICON CURTAIN LIVE EVENTS - FUNDRAISER CAMPAIGNEvents in 2025 - Advocacy for a Ukrainian victory with Silicon CurtainNEXT EVENTS - LVIV, KYIV AND ODESA THIS MAY AND JUNE.https://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extrasOur first live events this year in Lviv and Kyiv were a huge success.

Friedrich Merz ist der zehnte Kanzler der Bundesrepublik und der sechste aus den Reihen der CDU. Wie blickte und blickt die Partei von Adenauer über Kohl und Merkel bis zum frisch vereidigten Kanzler auf Osteuropa und welche Grundüberzeugungen haben ihre Spitzenleute geleitet? Darüber sprechen wir mit PD Dr. Bastian Matteo Scianna. Mit "Sonderzug nach Moskau – Geschichte der Russlandpolitik seit 1990" hat der Mitarbeiter des Historischen Institut der Uni Potsdam ein erschöpfendes Werk vorgelegt, das von Historikerinnen und Historikern hochgelobt wird. Scianna ist es gelungen, bislang unzugängliche Archivbestände auszuwerten – darunter sogar Wortprotokolle aus Unions-Fraktionssitzungen.Sciannas Arbeit lässt auch die nach Februar 2022 in Misskredit geratene Ex-Kanzlerin Angela Merkel in anderem Licht erscheinen.

Georgijs Ivanovs started the Ukraine Matters channel in 2007, and it has garners 11.5 m views. He started the channel to explain the situation surrounding the war in Ukraine in simple terms. Like myself, he is not Ukrainian, nor is he a military expert. But he has been to Ukraine many times and seen it almost fully (except for Odesa region). He has a lot of good friends in Ukraine, and in fact his wife is Ukrainian, and so feels extremely connected to the invasion that scaled up in February 2022. ----------Easter Pysanky: Silicon Curtain - https://car4ukraine.com/campaigns/easter-pysanky-silicon-curtainCar for Ukraine has joined forces with a group of influencers, creators, and news observers during this special Easter season.

AP Washington correspondent Sagar Meghani reports on Russia-Ukraine peace talks tomorrow in London.

AP correspondent Charles de Ledesma reports Russia strikes the Ukraine city Zaporizhzhia as multi-nation peace talks come to a crux.

In "Night Train to Odesa," Jen Stout delivers gripping accounts from the front lines of Russia's war on Ukraine. We also discuss media coverage Trump's tariff policies.

How do separatist conflicts arise and spread? When does separatism become a cover for a foreign aggression? How do local communities respond when state institutions collapse, and militants take over? The armed conflict in Eastern Ukraine, which started eight years before Russia's full-scale invasion, contains unique evidence to address each of these questions. In Seize the City, Undo the State: The Inception of Russia's War on Ukraine (Oxford UP, 2015), Serhiy Kudelia offers an authoritative study of the conflict at its initial stage--2013-14--based on a meticulous comparison of mobilization dynamics in over dozen towns of Donbas as well as in two major cities outside of it: Kharkiv and Odesa. Through his extensive travels and numerous interviews with conflict witnesses and participants, Kudelia explains how a small group of Russian agents and local militants succeeded in eliminating state control over the largest and most densely urbanized region of Ukraine but failed to do it elsewhere. Kudelia challenges the conventional accounts of the armed conflict in Donbas, which portray it either as an interstate conflict entirely manufactured by Moscow or as a civil war that broke out without any external influence. Instead, he argues that local actors prepared ideological and organizational basis for the uprising, but the successful spread of separatist control resulted from the covert intervention of Russian agents and widespread collaboration with them of town administrators and community activists. His findings also show that when enough members of local communities organized to resist militant takeovers, the separatist challenges there quickly dissipated. A fine-grained and highly original on-the-ground analysis of the origins of the wider Russian-Ukrainian war that broke out in 2022, this book offers broader insights into the conditions under which external intervention may trigger the rise of an armed insurgency in a society torn apart by political and ideological disagreements.

How do separatist conflicts arise and spread? When does separatism become a cover for a foreign aggression? How do local communities respond when state institutions collapse, and militants take over? The armed conflict in Eastern Ukraine, which started eight years before Russia's full-scale invasion, contains unique evidence to address each of these questions. In Seize the City, Undo the State: The Inception of Russia's War on Ukraine (Oxford UP, 2015), Serhiy Kudelia offers an authoritative study of the conflict at its initial stage--2013-14--based on a meticulous comparison of mobilization dynamics in over dozen towns of Donbas as well as in two major cities outside of it: Kharkiv and Odesa.

Day 1,108.Today, Russian forces split Ukrainian troops in the Kursk region and advance towards the border. Meanwhile, Russia targets a Ukrainian gas facility with missiles and drones just after Zelensky calls for a truce on attacks on infrastructure. On the political side, we discuss the consequences of the withdrawal of US intelligence to Ukraine, the French nuclear shield offer, and Russia's response to the idea of European peacekeeping forces in Ukraine. We also look to Washington for the Hegseth and Healey summit. Lastly, we sit down with Sir Bill Browder and Yuliya Ziskina to discuss why Russian frozen assets should be transferred to Ukraine for defence spending and reparations.
