Ukrainian President Zelenskyy is absolutely furious right now. He has just smoked out and uncovered a secret deal that the United States is trying to cut with Russia over an absurd amount of money that just belies any relationship with reality. The United States has been promised by Putin that if the United States forces Ukraine into a total surrender, Russia will enter into a $12 trillion trade deal with the United States, $12 trillion. Donald Trump likes that number, $12 trillion. Vladimir Putin knows that. When there have been meetings that were held in the United Arab Emirates over the past few days, and you had Jared Kushner and Steve Wytkoff showing up there. By the way, they were not wearing suits while the Ukrainians wore suits. Remember a big deal they made that Donald Trump was like, Zalinsky needs to wear suits while the Ukrainians were wearing suits, and Wytauff and Kushner were showing utter disrespect to Ukraine. They were doing it intentionally after telling the Ukrainians to wear suits. Well, there were the sideline secret meetings taking place between Wytkoff and Kushner and Khril Dmitriyiv. Russia's calling it the Dmitriyiv A country of package, $12 trillion, Putin says he's going to give the United States.
I mean, the interesting thing about that is that Russia's annual GDP is about $2 trillion, about half of the Canadian GDP and half of the GDP of California. If California were to be a country, but Putin sure knows how to play Donald Trump. Also, this is getting underreported as well. The United States is reporting that it has a critical shortage of the Black 3 interceptor missiles for the Patriot system that Ukraine has. And those are the actual missiles that go into the air defense system. And that's why the Trump regime is saying, We're not able to give you the missiles anymore to go into your air defense Patriot systems. So Ukraine has been left vulnerable last month and still significantly vulnerable this month because the US is starving Ukraine out of air defense. And again, this is being underreliqued. Reported as well. Here's the report. Due to a critical shortage of Pac-3 interceptor missiles for Patriot systems, Ukrainian launches remained empty last month, unable to repel ballistic strikes on energy facilities. You know from our reporting that Russia was launching those Shahid drones, those ballistic missiles, those cruise missiles, and they've been ramping it up.
By the way, they were working with Donald Trump to lure the Ukrainians out, about, and into the streets. And that's when Russia strike as well. You remember when Donald Trump made this announcement that he spoke with Vladimir Putin, and Putin promised me strongly that he was going to stop firing on Ukraine during the very cold weather that exists in Ukraine. Putin told me that he will be stopping so we can have these peace talks in the United Arab Emirates. Remember Donald Trump said that? Then Zelenskyy posted a message saying, Thank you. That's appreciated. It's been helpful to have a day or so with no ballistic missile strikes. So thanks for doing that, Donald. Right after Donald said that, Putin, boom, puts the ballistic missiles, cruise missile, Shahi drones, one of the biggest drone swarms we've seen. That's what's truthfully taking place. And while all of that's going on, Donald Trump is trying to force now a total surrender upon Zelenskyy. Complete capitulation. Russia has not budged at all. Russia is not making a single concession. So when anybody talks about a Ukrainian peace deal, remember, Russia hasn't offered anything. All Russia wants is complete and total surrender.
And if you've been watching what Kareil Dmitriy, Vinushikov, and Pescov, like the PR flak for Putin, and Putin statements, and Sergei Lavrov. If you listen to what the Russians are saying, they've never once, since Donald Trump has taken office, they've never once even suggested they are remotely interested in a ceasefire of any kind or any peace deal. That's why when people are like, Oh, well, there are productive talks. No. Donald Trump's just trying to poke and prod from different angles to get Ukraine and Zelenskyy to totally surrender. Right now, as we're recording this, and as over the past 24 hours, you had Odessa under attack, drone swarms, ballistic missile strikes, residential areas in Odessa, massive deaths and casualties there. You see right here, Ukrainian rescuers performing CPR on multiple victims of Russian terrorism. This follows a massive drone and ballistic missile strike on Kharkiv and Kyiv and all of these areas while the United Arab Emirates Peace Summit was taking place, while Kushner, Donald Trump's son-in-law, who has gone through no appointment process, no vetting, no financial disclosures, who himself has business interests in this region to the tunes of billions of dollars, he's there with Wytaufe.
You see right there the Ukrainians in suits, and Wytaufe and Kushner not. I only bring that up because they're the ones who made that a big deal. Then so What are we learning about this $12 trillion package? They're calling it the Dmitriyiv package. Here's how next to is referring to it. The United States and Russia may sign a $12 trillion... Isn't it just stupid when I'm saying this out loud? A $12 trillion package of economic agreements, the so-called Dmitriyiv package. Ukrainian President Zelenskyy revealed the existence of the documents during a close briefing with journalists following a second round of talks in Abu Dhabi in the UAE. Intelligence showed the so-called Dimitriyiv package that he was presenting to the United States. Its volume is about $12 trillion. It is allegedly a package of economic cooperation between America and Russia. In other words, we are hearing about the possibility of such or similar bilateral documents between the United States and Russia. And again, are you hearing this reported anywhere else right now? Pretty big deal when you think about it, that the US is trying to force Ukraine into total surrender right now to enter into the Dmitriyiv package with Russia.
And basically, that would destroy NATO. Probably a big freaking story that should be reported on. Here's what Kareil Dmitriyiv said. Again, he's Putin's special envoy. He runs Russia's sovereign wealth fund. Here's what he had to say here, play this clip.
As you know, with the Trump administration, active work is ongoing to restore Russia. Us ties economically, including within the framework of the Russian-American Group on Economic Cooperation. We also met today, and the meetings are progressing positively.
Serge Aleksandrovitch, is there progress on peace?
You know, one indicator here could be that the war mongers from Europe, on the basis from Britain, are constantly trying to hinder this process, constantly trying to interfere. The more such attempts occur, the more we see that, undoubtedly, there is progress and a good, positive movement forward. But here in Abu Dhabi, you can't interfere, I suppose, right? Well, it's difficult for them, but they are trying.
Now, here's how the Institute for the Study of War is putting it. Us pressures Ukraine to plan for a vote on a peace agreement would be odd, considering that the sides reportedly remain far apart on central issues and that the Kremlin continues to refuse compromises offered by both the United States and Ukraine. As Republican Congress member, Don Bacon from Nebraska, writes, It's worse than odd. It's morally wrong. The White House puts pressure on Ukraine while Russia is invading and bombing cities. Russia wants a vassal state while Ukraine wants independence and democracy. Moral blindness is more accurate than odd. Actually, thank you, Bacon, because stop this like, It would be odd. While the parties remain far apart on a compromise, Russia is not trying to compromise. Compromise. Russia has agreed to nothing. It has never agreed to anything. Ukraine has been the one saying, Let's do a ceasefire. The latest of what the Trump regime is pushing is that we want to have a referendum on elections by May or June, the latest, and an election regarding Zelenskyy. There's not going to be a ceasefire because Russia won't. But one of the things Zelenskyy said is, Look, this is what.
Zelenskyy goes, I could be open to a referendum on some deal. We'll bring it to the people because we're a sovereign country. I don't divine. If you want to ask the Ukrainians what they think about if they should give up Ukraine to Russia, let the Ukrainian people vote on it. And if you want me to do an election for Zelenskyy, sure, I'll do an election. I mean, Zelinsky's popularity is pretty high right now. He goes, I'll do an election. The issue is we're at war. So if Russia agrees to a ceasefire for 60 days or so, then let's do the election. That's fine. Russia's like, No, we're not going to agree to a ceasefire. Donald Trump's like, We still want you to do those things, Zelenskyy. You have to do those things. In other words, Trump wants total surrender and give up all of Eastern Ukraine to Putin. And all Trump wants to do, it's the same way Trump thinks about the 2020 election, right? Here he is in 2026. He's still talking about overturning the results of the 2020 election, where he was absolutely clobbered by former President Biden. That's Trump's mind. He's a predator.
He's obsessive. He's a sociopath. He doesn't stop. And so he's going to just come up with ways in his own mind, Ukraine belongs to Russia. That's how Trump feels. So he's just going to try to find different sociopathic ways to achieve that outcome. That's all these things are. Zelenskyy knows that, Europe knows that. And they're trying just to figure out how you check and counter the fact that NATO essentially exists in name only. I mean, there are still old vestiges of NATO and people within the United States working with NATO, but Trump doesn't want NATO to succeed. So it's a battle from within, basically. And that's one of the things you have going. Also an important thing that's happening right now is we're heading soon into elections in Hungary, where Viktor Orbán's party is getting absolutely shellacked right now by the Tiza EPP Party and the opposition group, the pro-democracy, pro-European group, is poised to win. So Orbán is going all in on Russia to try to steal the elections in Hungary. Orbán declares the enemy of Hungary, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, criticized Ukraine for calling on the EU halt imports of cheap Russian energy.
Anyone who says this is an enemy of Hungary. Anyone who says this is an enemy of Hungary. So Ukraine is our enemy. Didn't Donald Trump, though, They say that anybody who brings in Russian oil is an enemy, except if it's Viktor Orbán and everybody else who brings in Russian oil? And then you have the Russians arriving in Hungary this week in order to try to rig the Hungarian elections. So you have all of the big Russian people, Russian influencers, and Russian government officials are now in Hungary working with Orbán to try to rig their midterms. Does that sound familiar to you? As Marco Michalko, European diplomat, writes, This trend should be deeply worrying to us. It's exactly what Russia and China want to see, progress without a single bullet being fired and something they are eager to deepen. So when you look If you look at the popularity or approval of the United States in, say, the UK, in Denmark, in France, in Germany, Italy, in Spain, the approval of the US, let's just go to the unfavorable 64% in the UK, 84% in Denmark, 62% in France, 72% unfavorable in Germany, 63% unfavorable in Italy, 66% unfavorable in Spain.
Right there. Also, take a look at the average monthly missile and drone launches from Russia since Donald Trump has taken office. We're at about 6,000 or more drone and missiles per month. That's up multiple. It's not even close. Close to when former President Biden was in office. So, Donald Trump, you want a Nobel Peace Prize for killing more Ukrainians? I mean, what the hell is even happening? Also, Russians targeted the cathedral in the center of Kershian with nine nine victims, I mean, mass atrocities being committed there. Here's what Zelenskyy said about the Ukraine view of Ukraine drone strikes against Russia. Let's play this clip right here.
But we don't have to make a choice whether we strike a military target or energy infrastructure. He sells this energy, he sells his oil resources. So is it truly energy or is it a military target? Honestly, it's the very same thing. He sells oil, he takes the money, he invests it in weapons, and with these weapons, he kills Ukrainians. What should a Ukrainian do? There are two distinct paths before us. We either focus on building our own elements and directly strike on their military hardware, or we strategically target the very origin of their financial growth and the generation of their wealth. And that primary source for them is their energy infrastructure. This is a crucial reality, and for me, in this context, one simply cannot equate the importance of military objectives. All of these are, for us, entirely legitimate targets. That's our absolute number one priority. Military targets, while important, are number two. Well, who else could have done such a thing to us like the Russians did. Nobody.
I think it's worth playing this clip as well for you just to show you how Donald Trump's performative theatrical will want to be dictator-stip, shtik, is playing across the world. You have an Iranian member of Parliament was speaking with the press in Iran. I'm going to translate this into English for you, but saying that what Donald Trump has been trying to back channel to Iran is, just let us hit some of your buildings so we can say to the American people that we did a strike against Iran, and we can say you were obliterated, but then we'll let the Ayatollah stay in power. Just let us hit a few buildings and let us declare victory in a war. This is what the Iranian Parliament member is saying, that the Iranian Foreign Minister has briefed the Iranian Parliament of what the US is saying to Iran, that US just wants to strike a few buildings so they can claim a victory to the America and then move on. After Donald Trump promised the protesters in Iran, Go out there, protest. We've got your back. If the Ayatollah kills a single protester, Donald Trump said that he would go in guns of blazing to help the protesters.
Donald Trump is responsible for thousands and thousands of deaths of Iranian pro-democracy protesters because Trump said, Go out, we're going to save you. Trump didn't even have the aircraft carriers or the boats or the war equipment present because it was all off the Coast of Venezuela when he said that he was going to have the back of the protesters in Iran. He allowed the Ayatoll to massacre thousands of protesters, and now Trump's calling them and saying, Hey, just let me strike a few buildings. Can we make that deal? Then we'll declare a victory, and then we're good? Here, play this clip.
Trump came through one of the countries and said, All right, I've made arrangements. I've done the groundwork, and I need to tell you, let me hit a couple of places in Iran, and then you can respond. We said, It's over. If you make a single misstep, we will definitely take 3,000 to 4,000 casualties from you. We have a serious task. Regarding this message, this specific part, I might later be accused, Why are you saying these things? Well, we told the foreign minister to call his counterpart in the region. We have announced that any company, any base that bears America's name, we will strike.
Now, I'll leave you with this, even though it's not directly related. I mean, all of this stuff is related. But as I've predicted before, Prime Minister, Kier Starmer, may be resigning very soon. He may not be able to survive the taint of the Epstein affiliation with his regime under the the Labor Party there. Again, I'm not trying to make any... Look, the Tories have their own issues in the UK. I think that part of the problem is all this has also distracted from Nigel Farage and the Reform Party who are working with people like Baden, who are working very closely with Epstein. I'm not ignoring that when I make this report. I just want to be very clear and sensitive to our UK viewers that I certainly understand that Nigel Farage with Banon and those connections to hoisting up far-right authoritarians was part of the Banon-Epstein class playbook, right? And the Tories have their own issues to deal with. But Prime Minister Starmer appointed Peter Mendelsohn to be the ambassador to the United States. Mendelsohn, as you know, had all of these relationships with Epstein and talked about the girls and engaged in the most disgusting and grotesque and perverse and behavior that we see in those files with Epstein.
We have the Chief of Staff for Keir Starmer just resigned, and McSweeney, Morgan McSweeney. People say, Well, that's Keir Starmer, Prime Minister, trying to save himself by having McSweeney resigned. But others are saying, Well, now that shows weakness because you showed confidence for McSweeney, your Chief of Staff, because McSweeney was the person who said, Let's keep Mendelsohn on, bring him on, when they knew about the connections with Epstein, maybe didn't know all the stuff that were in the files now, but knew at the time that Mendelsohn had these Epstein connections. And so McSweeney resigned, and people go, It's 50/50 at this point. And others in the Labor Party probably want to just force out Kier Starmer. Just think about that. The fact that Kier Starmer's Chief of Staff recommended Mendelsohn, who was affiliated with Epstein in grotesque ways. In the UK, that impacts their perception on Starmer. Shameful, disqualifying conduct. Despite other stuff about Kier Starmer. In the United States, Trump's the main character, like in the Epstein files, in my opinion. He appears tens of thousands of times, 38,000 times in 5,000 different documents. And his whole regime, his cabinet officials are doing business deals with Epstein.
There's no shame, there's no accountability. There's no none of that right there in the United States. That's a big problem. I wanted to put that all in perspective. We'll see if Kier Starmer can survive this. I suspect he's going to resign. We will see, though. Hit subscribe. Let's get to 6 million. Thanks, everybody, for watching. We'll keep you posted.
