Do we keep catching arrows, or take out the archers? That’s the question on everyone’s mind in Ukraine today, after another wave of Russian missiles struck from bases that the U.S. won’t let Ukraine target. #LetUkraineStrikeRussianAirfields

The Russo-Ukrainian war is a bizarre mix of high tech and primitive means. Russia, for all its alleged might, has taken to sending armed illegal immigrants aka soldiers into Ukraine on donkeys and, on fancy days, on horseback. Here a Ukrainian drone takes out a horsebound soldier.

How J.K. Rowling Kept a Ukrainian Alive Through Years of Russian Captivity Sasha Ivanov, a Ukrainian soldier, spent five years in Russian captivity—starting before Russia’s full-scale war. When men from his cell started returning home, it turned out they had all listened to Harry Potter through Sasha’s retelling—and now they know every book too. From memory, he kept retelling the whole saga—over and over. Meanwhile, Sasha’s friends showed up at every prisoner exchange with wands, toy owls, and other Harry Potter gear, hoping he would be among the released. Time after time, he did not appear. He was still in a Russian prison, reciting Harry Potter. At last, their dream is true: He is back in Ukraine—and free. And JK Rowling’s stories written in an Edinburgh café kept him going in darkest Russian dungeons through the bleakest time. ‘Happiness can be found even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.’ Art by #NEIVANMADE with Cultural Forces International

As we at UFN reported months ago, it is now common news that foreign veteran fighter pilots including Americans are serving in Ukraine as volunteers to defend the skies. Many in the West once said it would be impossible even for U.S. fighter pilot veterans to assist in this way but yet another barrier has fallen. In fact President Biden once said Ukraine didn't need F-16s. Well, now Ukraine has F-16s and some of America's best young veterans are helping defend the skies over a free land.

King Charles III welcomes many foreign leaders to the UK. None receive a welcome like he affords Zelensky: In the royal family's private quarters, bedecked with whimsical heirlooms, in Windsor Castle. King Charles's very existence is about optics. And he knows what he is doing.

JD Vance refused to clap for “nature,” during the King’s speech to Congress. Even Speaker Mike Johnson was puzzled. In fact, he looked a bit afraid as he rose to clap while JD, emissary of the White House and president of the Senate, sat silently. But the Speaker found the courage to clap anyhow. King Charles showed Ciceronian rhetorical skills and within 2 minutes he indeed had Vice President Vance clapping for nature, once the king couched the natural order as also necessary for national security for free peoples.

Andrew Tate saying that Russia is the ideal of manliness is actually quite perfect. Because Andrew Tate is a weak man. By Western standards of masculine virtue, Russian men are losers. They do what they are told, they have no strong faith, they beat up and try to kill their neighbors, they treat each other horribly. They see themselves as victims, forever crying and then in their tears lashing out in violence. And by Western standards of feminine virtue, Russian women are absolute monsters, too. They all belong with each other. They just need to be kept behind their borders, away from the rest of us. There's a lot of f-ing space in Russia. We can keep them there.

Many criticize me for reporting the truth that Hunter Biden made money from Moscow, not from Ukraine. Well, here's part of the reason why I care: He has lately been going on America's most popular podcasts, pretending to be a Ukraine expert though he was hired from Moscow, and absolutely sh*ting all over Ukraine. He knows nothing of Ukraine's anti-corruption civil society or Maidan Revolution because he was hired by pro-Kremlin people who opposed the revolution! And then he conflates Ukraine and Russia–as you can hear on this interview with the pro-Russian, Candace-adjacent Shawn Ryan show from 2025. The lie that Hunter made money from Ukraine has turned many Republicans against Ukraine. And Hunter also turns Democrats against Ukraine, as you can see in this clip.

This was simply a nice hot-mic moment between King Charles III and President Zelensky at Windsor Castle. "You don't want to wash your hands, just in case?" the King asked, as they entered into a private audience. That's a polite British euphemism meaning, "Do you need to use the restroom?" — but it shows a high level of courtesy and attention from the King. "No, no, I'm ok," Zelensky said, in a friendly way. Such wholesome meetings, I suspect, are sources of encouragement for Zelensky, quite different from the reality TV lions' den of the White House. [And I'm not judging that difference right now; The White House is indeed a test that has to be passed.] What do you think?

Italian PM Giorgia Meloni sticks to her guns no matter her audience: Speaking to the annual CPAC event in Washington, DC, she used her conservative credentials to urge the pro-Trump crowd to stand with Ukraine: ⦿ "Happiness depends on freedom. And freedom depends on courage." ⦿ "I know that with Donald J. Trump leading the United States, we will never again see the disaster we saw in Afghanistan four years ago." ⦿ "Will we let our civilization fail or will we stand up and defend it?" ⦿ She said the free nations must stand with "Ukraine where a proud people fight for freedom against the brutal aggression."

The Kingdom of Sweden, or Sverige in their native tongue, is stepping up in a huge way: The Swedes are donating 16 older Gripen fighter jets to Ukraine and they are allowing Ukraine to purchase 20 more. Sweden, population 10.6 million, comes through in a huge way both for Ukraine and for all of Europe and the West.

Does Donald Trump think Ukraine’s resistance is only about Zelensky? Does he realize that the Ukrainian people hate what Russia has been doing to them? Here an 11-year-old Ukrainian boy describes saying goodbye to his dead mother as he was rescued from the rubble after three Russian rockets hit Vinnytsia city. He was speaking in the EU Parliament, and his translator, so moved to tears, could barely speak herself.

The Russians began to attack, so the choir & audience carried on in the Odesa Opera House cellar. Odesa is a largely Russian-speaking city but most Odesans hate Russia & love freedom. As I have observed, after each attack more people choose to speak Ukrainian in defiance.

🎄🇫🇮 This was one of our most-watched videos of 2025: This is quite cool: The Finns refuse to call Russia by the stolen name “Rus”—which anciently defines Swedes and, later on, Ukrainians. Instead, they call Russia “Venäjä.” Finland, with just 5.6 million people, is one of the strongest nations in Europe—aware of its identity, prepared to fight, and, understanding the Russian threat, generously helping Ukraine. Its president Alexander Stubb has elevated Finland as a key geopolitical player. music: the great Finnish composer Sibelius UFN /

Margaret Thatcher saw exactly who Putin was—25 years ago! Exactly! And still current European and American leaders today are naive—or afraid. What do you think of Baroness Thatcher's warning about Ukraine? "[Russians] still do not value human life in the same way that we do."

After Elon Musk handed Giorgia Meloni an Atlantic Council award in NYC this past week, the Italian prime minister used the moment to state clearly that Ukraine must win—and that the West, if it still believes in democracy and dignity—must help. Voice's like Meloni's can help snap so many people out of the propaganda coma that prevents them from standing with Ukraine. Maybe Elon, who has castigated Ukraine and who has ignored Ukraine's great successes, will wake up.

Is a new strength stirring in France? Did the re-opening of Notre-Dame betoken a larger re-awakening? Quietly but decisively in the past months, France has been positioning itself as a defender of the free West: Macron has announced a French nuclear umbrella for nine European nations—and he did so with a haunting pageant as patriots sang La Marseillaise around a nuclear sub. Unlike Britain, France was ready at sea for whatever might happen in the Middle East and has taken action against total Iranian control of the Strait of Hormuz. France has provided serious intel, tech, and weapons to include, and Paris is the home of the Coalition of the Willing. What's the next step? Maybe a dozen French officers to Lviv—crossing one of Russia's last remaining paper tiger red lines and transforming the Coalition of the Willing into the Coalition of the Doing ...
