Kremlin snuffbox/Кремлевская табакерка, Dec 8 2025

Belousov demanded a stricter selection process for contract soldiers sent to the Northern Military District

The Ministry of Defense has repeatedly noted the "poor combat performance" of many new contract soldiers [ https://t.me/kremlin_secrets/6020 ]. But now, according to our sources within the ministry, the situation has become so dire that Andrei Belousov has been forced to intervene personally.

"Andrei Removich has ordered a significant tightening of the selection process for those joining the SVO under contract. And a strict weeding out of those who, in the hopes of a quick end to hostilities, are hoping to join the army, earn money, and avoid fighting. They'll have to fight!" said one of our sources.

Another noted that the minister was "shocked" by the statistics regarding contract soldiers at the front:

"I won't reveal all the figures; that's classified information. But I can say that, on average, a contract soldier at the front lives 2.5-4 months. Then comes death or serious injury, after which he's no longer a fighter. The reasons for such dismal statistics are the low quality of personnel and problems with motivation. And something needs to be done about this."

The source noted that measures to combat this negative trend have already been developed. He urged that only those who truly want to fight, or at least understand that they will have to fight no matter what, and the SVO definitely won't end tomorrow, should sign up for the contract.

Trump Jr. is a tool or an unregistered Russian agent.  The Ukrainian people are not “happy” about the capitulation “agreement” Trump is trying to force on them.

It’s so “refreshing” to see a US president who so readily turns his back on people who are fighting for their freedom against an oppressor. 

One wonders: would Trump have chided Jews for complaining about the roughness of the cattle cars the nazis used to haul them to the death camps?

... Zelensky has remained in power after introducing martial law, thereby postponing a presidential election that otherwise would have taken place in 2024. ...

In the real world, the Ukrainian Constitution forbids Presidential elections during a time of war, a provision that predates Putin's 2022 invasion.

Trump says to Zelinsky: Ending the war is the easiest thing in the world. You just have to immediately surrender and give Putin everything he wants. And bada-bing bada-boom, no more war. See how simple it is? I am the great peacemaker after all.
You may find 'nobility' in a savage. But never forget that his first instinct is to kill you.
You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.

One of Russia’s largest military bloggers, Yuri Podolyaka, has admitted on air that after three and a half years of war the Russian army is still unable to supply its troops with basic essentials - underwear, socks, even standard uniforms. Soldiers are forced to buy their own kit or depend on volunteers funded by civilians. The Defence Ministry, he said, is perfectly aware of the problem but has done nothing to fix it.

Once again, Russia and USA are allies. Although this time we are fighting to put Nazis back in power.

Which is a nuance.

Europe circles the wagons around corruption-tainted Zelenskyy after Trump criticism
December 9, 2025 | Kevin Haggerty

While “the paper of record” got around to covering Ukraine’s corruption scandal, key leaders in Europe embraced the nation’s leader once more as he took heat from President Donald Trump.

Last week, the chief executive dispatched Special Envoy Steve Witkoff, along with son-in-law and former senior adviser Jared Kushner, to meet with officials in Ukraine as well as Russian President Vladimir Putin to discuss Trump’s peace plan. Monday, following the president’s expression of being “disappointed” with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, the Eastern European leader was welcomed at 10 Downing Street for a show of support from the leaders of the United Kingdom, France, and Germany.

“We stand with Ukraine,” U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer said while hosting Zelenskyy with French President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Friedrich Merz. “If there is to be a ceasefire, then it needs to be a just and lasting ceasefire; that is why it is so important we repeatedly set out the principle that matters about Ukraine are for Ukraine.”

“We stand here to support you in the conflict and support you in negotiations,” added the prime minister at the same time a corruption scandal in Ukraine saw the resignation of Zelenskyy’s Chief of Staff Andriy Yermak while agencies in the country probe whether or not Zelenskyy ally Timur Mindich led a group responsible for laundering around $100 million from the Ukrainian energy sector.

I'm really sick and tired of "special envoys" Witkoff and Kushner.  They hold NO official position in the U.S. government, have never been confirmed by the Senate, and thus have no legal treaty-making authority to do anything except by Trump's whim.  Secretary of State Rubio should be the one handling this instead of those two grifters, who see everything as a potential real estate deal and are susceptible to bribary by the Russians.

@StratcomCentre

Another dark turn for the Russian economy as Russians figure out that the average price of gasoline is now officially 8% higher than in the US.

With median US salary being 9.5X higher than median Russian salary, this must be quite an embarrassment for the Russian dictator.
