Russian Leader Vladimir Putin Creates 12 Millionaires Amidst Destruction: Soldiers' Windfall Tied to Ukraine's Assets, U.S. Connection Unveiled.
Heads up, folks— it's time to dive into the latest development in the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
On May 31, 12 Russian soldiers were handed a whopping 15 million rubles (around $200,000) bonus for taking down an American F-16 fighter jet in the Ukraine warzone. The ceremony took place near the Russian-Ukrainian border, previously promised by Forse, a significant Russian oil company.
This F-16 was one of three that Ukraine received from the United States last year under President Biden's term. Sadly, it's been a costly investment; so far, all three aircraft have been lost.
As pressure mounts for Ukraine to attend another round of peace talks with Russia, scheduled for June 2, there's a mixed message from both countries. While Russia is ready to send a delegation to Turkey, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy remains cautious, stating that Russia's intentions don't appear to be genuine.
Meanwhile, the US has put forth a peace proposal, which includes a 30-day ceasefire covering land, air, sea, and key infrastructure. John Kelley, the acting US Deputy Ambassador, urged Russia to accept this offer, and warned that any continued attacks could lead to new sanctions and a withdrawal from negotiations.
Stay tuned as we bring you the latest updates on this evolving situation. In the meantime, here's a hot take— it seems that, as of late June 2025, peace talks remain a distant dream. With deeply conflicting demands, limited progress, and both sides continuing military operations, it appears that the core issues—territorial control and external military support— are major obstacles preventing agreement.
