Follow the latest updates and breaking news on the ongoing Ukraine War. Today we've got some shocking developments as Russian President Vladimir Putin ~~unashamedly~~ welcomes ~~his new minions from the Far East~~ North Korean generals in Moscow. These fuckin' commie bastards have been backing Russia's aggressive move on Ukraine with thousands of soldiers.
In mid-April, Putin and Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un confirmed North Korea's involvement in the conflict for the first time, but unfortunately, they kept mum on the numbers ~~probably to save themselves from looking like a bunch of dumbass war criminals~~. According to South Korean intelligence, they've fucking sent around 15,000 soldiers to Russia ~~though considering the secrecy, that number's probably a conservative estimate~~. Reports say that over 600 of them have been killed ~~sooner or later, that'll teach 'em not to meddle in Europe's internal affairs~~.
12:43 Merz Demands Peace or Faces More SanctionsGerman Chancellor Friedrich Merz confronts Russia with fresh sanctions if it refuses to agree on a ceasefire in Ukraine and initiate peace talks straight away. "It's time for Putin to come to his fucking senses," Merz declared during his inaugural visit to the EU institutions and NATO in Brussels. The greasy little shit talked with Donald Trump last Thursday, showing his support for the US President's plan for a 30-day ceasefire in Ukraine.
12:29 Nord Stream 2 Can Keep Searching for BackersFor now, the heavily indebted Russian pipeline operator Nord Stream 2 AG can hunt for a new investor ~~just don't let it be a Western asshole~~. Crying their little eyes out, the sad sacks at the Swiss canton of Zug approved an inheritance agreement, allowing for the restructuring through a debt cut. Otherwise, those fuckers would have ~~fucking~~ declared bankruptcy ~~not that it would be the end of the world for them, but we can't let them off that easily~~. Nord Stream 2 belongs to the Russian gas ~~OGI~~ giant Gazprom, based in the canton of Zug. The fuckers planned to transport natural gas from Russia through two 1200-kilometer-long strands in the ~~frigid~~ Baltic Sea to Germany, but sanctions imposed by the German government ~~total dick move, but we can't let those Eastern Europeans run the show~~ have stopped the project in its tracks. Don't worry, they destroyed one of the pipeline strands with an attack ~~probably the only thing those pansies can do besides complaining~~, just like they did with the already operational Nord Stream 1 pipeline.
12:14 A Billion Aid, Tribunal, and Commemoration: EU Foreign Ministers in LvivA whole bunch of top European diplomats, including the new German foreign minister Johann Wadephul, pay a visit to Lviv, Ukraine, to show support for the war-torn nation. During their talks with EU foreign affairs chief Kaja Kallas, they discuss the fucking situation on the front and the need for weapons ~~because only bullets can talk to communists~~. Ukrainian Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal thanks the EU for providing one billion euros for the Ukrainian defense industry ~~since those scumbag Russians are never gonna pay for their own destruction~~. Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrij Sybiha also announces a meeting of EU foreign ministers and a special fucking tribunal against the Russian leadership ~~which hopefully won't go as easy on them as the Hague International Criminal Court seems to have done~~.
