Europe is cracking at every seam: Alex Christoforou reports live from Belgrade on Keir Starmer's imminent resignation, Ukraine's massive overnight drone strike on Moscow with over 120 UAVs intercepted, and explosive New York Times reporting that the Trump administration is deep in planning for a new military strike against Iran as early as next week. The Duran breaks down what the mainstream media is missing: from Bulgaria's Eurovision win and NATO scrambling jets over Latvia, to AfD surging past 29 percent in Germany, Merz mocking the United States at a Catholic youth conference, and the CIA delivering a regime change ultimatum to Cuba. Is the collective West accelerating toward a confrontation it cannot win, or is something bigger unfolding behind the scenes?
