Orban’s Message to Trump
Pokrovsk and Ukrainian Black Hawk Helicopter Missions
On November 7, President Donald Trump met with Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban. Prime Minister Orban is concerned about access to gas and oil pipelines that have been critical to the Hungarian economy. Orban also believes that Ukraine cannot win the war against Russia, except by some sort of extremely improbable “miracle.” Prolonging the war has almost destroyed Ukraine and is causing serious economic problems in the European Union. Moreover, Hungary, Slovakia, and now the Czech Republic do not support the NATO war against Russia. Austria is beginning to lean that way. Alexander Mercouris recently termed this growing opposition to the Ukraine War the “Hapsburg Coalition.” In addition, the new President of Poland, Karol Nowrocki, wants no further involvement. In the first round of recent Romanian elections on December 6, 2024, Calin Georgescu a conservative independent opposing Romanian participation in the Ukraine War was the front runner with 23 percent, but the Romanian Constitutional Court overturned the election, alleging Russian interference.

Ramifications of a Probable Russian Victory
The Russians are close to a major military victory that could be decisive in ending the Ukraine War on Russian terms. Yet still, the relentless coordinated misinformation propaganda of Ukrainian, CIA, and British MI6 intelligence continues to claim that Russian Federation President Vladimir Putin is being humiliated by Ukrainian resolve and ingenuity in Pokrovsk and elsewhere. This is faithfully believed and disseminated by most American, British, and captive European Union media that have kept the public ignorant and misinformed on the Ukraine War, Ukrainian leadership, and anything and everything about Russia.

Wonder Weapons or High Risk Futility?
On Friday, October 17, President Trump backed away from Ukrainian President Zelensky’s requests for Tomahawk missiles capable of hitting deep into Russian territory. This was a substantial disappointment not only to Zelensky but also to British, French, and German leaders advocating continued war with Russia. This is despite a July 2025 Gallup poll indicating that 69 percent of Ukrainians want a negotiated end to the war “as soon as possible,” and only 24 precent want to continue the war to “victory.” The latter is down from 73 percent since 2022—a 49 percent drop in enthusiasm for the war.
