Topic 2079
Armenia faces its most consequential election in decades as voters decide whether to break from Russia and fall into the arms of the collective West, while Alex Christoforou and The Duran break down the explosive Pentagon report revealing that Israel has been spying on Trump's top officials to track the US Iran negotiations, the EU's brazen attempt to blame Russia for Ukrainian drones that hit Romania, Scott Bessant's plan to seize Iranian frozen assets, the Kushner Albania island deal, and the coalition of the willing ceasefire push that Putin and Lavrov have already flatly rejected. With the EU in open panic, Russia advancing on all fronts, and Zelensky's secret Abramovich back channel now fully exposed, is the entire Western narrative on Ukraine finally beginning to crack under the weight of reality?
