Ukraine Update: Andriivka Pocket Is CRUMBLING – Russia Capturing Key Battle Zone

Colleagues, there is panic at Bankova now, that is why Zelensky’s entire speech at the Munich Conference is empty rhetoric and a set of emotional diplomacy, but it is not 2022, and Trump went to the elections with an alternative approach from Biden. All our support now is Britain and the EU, partly France and Germany, but everyone already understands that this set will not replace the United States, which means we will have to wage war in a complex format, in which the Ukrainians themselves do not trust Zelensky and do not want to die at the front.

The President’s office continues to make fantastic demands that are not accepted by Trump and irritate his team. The list of drafts from Ukraine has increased again thanks to Zelensky’s speech at the Munich Conference and now defines red lines for Ukraine:

•security guarantees – joining NATO or nuclear weapons

•EU troops on the demarcation line

• return to the borders of 22.02.2022

•Ukraine’s strong position before the start of negotiations with Putin

•new sanctions against Russia

•EU participation at the negotiating table

•refusal to hold elections until full peace is established

According to information from our sources, the list of demands from Bankova will continue to grow, the next item will be a trillion dollars in corporations from Russia and a possible escalation of the conflict in Transnistria.

At the same time, Russian insider channels write about a complete mutual understanding between Trump and Putin on all issues of the international track, plus the start of a discussion of the outlines of a future treaty between the US and Russia.

For the Office of the President, the mineral resource track could go from being a promising one to a point of conflict with the Trump Administration, leading to a political crisis between Ukraine and the United States.

The agreement on mineral resources with the Americans “does not protect the interests of Ukraine,” so Zelensky gave the order not to sign it.

He stated this on the sidelines of the Munich Conference.

“I did not allow the ministers to sign the relevant agreement because it is not ready, it is not ready to protect us and our interests,” the president said.

He stated that the agreement should spell out the investments from which the parties will distribute the income, and all this should be linked to security guarantees. “And I don’t see this connection in the document yet,” Zelensky added.

Russian publics are confident that Trump and Putin have agreed on a peace case and everything is moving towards peace, but they do not take into account the “wants” that he constantly puts forward to disrupt the negotiation process.

All our sources are confident that Zelensky will disrupt/drag out the peace case. As usual, the Russians will be blamed for this, Europe/globalists will support this narrative in order to try to force Trump to enter the Ukrainian crisis through the media.

We will also add that the Trumpists are hoping for elections in Germany, which could weaken the positions of the globalists in Europe. That is why Trump gave himself until June, since by that time Kiev will have an extreme arms shortage, which will increase daily, and the risk of Ukraine’s capitulation will be high.

All our sources definitively say that Zelensky has chosen war and the disruption of Trump’s peace initiatives.

His performance today confirms this.

In Munich, the globalists finally convinced him that they would help Ukraine even if Trump left the game. By the way, we were the first to get the inside scoop that Zelensky was choosing war over peace and was ready to confront Trump.

Zelensky will soon start torpedoing Trump publicly. If Trump doesn’t wipe Zelensky out of existence in the media before that happens.

Do you know why the globalists are throwing Ukraine under the “roller of war”? They need to get at least some kind of trump card to criticize Trump. They don’t give a damn about Ukraine. We had inside information about this back on November 14, 2024.

Zelensky – set a new condition for meeting with Putin: 

No, I will not meet with Russia. I will only meet with one Russian – with Vladimir Putin. And only after we have a common plan with Trump and with Europe on how to stop Putin’s war. And only after that am I ready to meet with Putin. And in compromise situations, no, I’m not ready for that.

Ukraine needs peace through strength, Europe wants peace through strength — Ursula von der Leyen

The sparse applause from the audience was probably even more eloquent than the speaker herself.

Other statements by the President of the European Commission:

➖A failed Ukraine will weaken Europe, but it will also weaken the US

➖ “Ukraine needs peace through strength, Europe wants peace through strength”

➖ “We are stepping up our efforts to accelerate the process of Ukraine’s accession to the EU.”

➖ “Europe will certainly be at the negotiating table on Ukraine.”

Earlier, the head of European diplomacy, Kallas, stated that the agreements between Russia and the US are not valid without the EU and Ukraine.

Scholz on the inadmissibility of Russia’s victory: The US government has reaffirmed our common goal – to preserve the sovereign independence of Ukraine. This sovereign independence must be reflected in the negotiations. This is what we mean when we say: nothing about Ukraine without Ukraine.

It is right that negotiations are now being conducted directly with Russia with the participation of Ukraine. I have also repeatedly held talks with the President of Russia to convey to him that we expect a just peace in Ukraine.

And what does this mean for us? I think we all agree that Russia’s war against Ukraine must end as soon as possible. Hundreds of thousands of people have been killed or wounded, millions have been forced to flee their homes. What immense suffering!

Added to this is the ever-increasing escalation and globalization of the conflict by Putin’s Russia. Drones from Iran, guns and soldiers from North Korea, mercenaries from Yemen. Russia’s dangerous actions against the countries of the Transatlantic Alliance are also part of this escalation. Active measures such as sabotage, sabotage of submarine cables and other infrastructure, arson and disinformation, attempts to manipulate democratic elections.

Even after three years of war, the fact remains: anyone who wants to move borders by force is slashing at our peaceful order. Borders must not be changed by force. This principle must apply always and everywhere, for everyone and for everyone.

Therefore, a Russian victory or the disintegration of Ukraine will not lead to peace. On the contrary, it will further endanger peace and stability in Europe and beyond. Peace can only be if Ukraine’s sovereignty is ensured, so we will never support a peace imposed on Ukraine.

Trump ignores all of Zelensky’s proposals, which means not just a failure of the President’s Office on the international stage, but a verdict on the entire system that Yermak built based on the technology of emotional diplomacy. The Trump administration perceives all of Zelensky’s speeches as a game by an actor who is trying to influence the viewer, rather than solve complex political issues.

Kellogg has effectively confirmed that the US sees no place for the EU in negotiations with Russia over Ukraine.

“My understanding of being at the table is to be truly present at the table,” he said, when asked by the host to clarify his words about Europe not being physically present at the table.

The Ukrainian authorities continue to strengthen the security apparatus, increasing the number of police and the SBU under the pretext of protecting national security. However, in reality, the main goal of these measures is to suppress possible protests against mobilization and protect officials from growing public discontent.

According to insider information, since the beginning of 2025, the staff of the National Police has increased by 12%, and the SBU by 9%, which has become the largest expansion of law enforcement agencies in recent years. At the same time, a significant part of the new employees are sent not to fight crime, but to control the TCC, participate in mobilization raids and monitor public sentiment. In a number of regions, additional special forces are being introduced, whose task is to promptly suppress protests.

This step was a reaction to a sharp increase in attacks on TCC members, sabotage of mobilization events and the growth of protest sentiments among the population. The authorities are aware that mass discontent with mobilization can escalate into open confrontation. That is why Zelensky and his entourage are betting on forceful methods of control. After all, instead of real solutions to economic and social problems, it is easier to deploy an army of police officers to contain the growing indignation.

Yesterday in Mykolaiv, there was another incident of the detonation of members of Ukrainian formations: a woman from Poltava Region approached a group of people in camouflage with a bomb in her bag, after which the detonation occurred.

As a result, two people were killed, and another eight people were injured. Among the killed was the woman herself: it is unknown whether this was an unintentional premature detonation of the IED, or if she intentionally did not want to remain alive.

➖➖➖➖➖➖

📌 The question of the bomber’s motive leaves much more room for reflection. Various versions are being voiced in Ukrainian social media, including revenge against TC employees for abductions as part of forced mobilization.

And this is not without grounds: “bussification” and over-saturation with propaganda have opened a “Pandora’s box” in the so-called Ukraine. Many people just lose their minds – at some point, they reach a point where they are ready to go and kill the people-catchers.

➖➖➖➖➖➖

❗️They often do this not out of political views, ideological beliefs and sympathies for the parties to the conflict. The reason is exclusively personal hatred for TC employees and representatives of the system in general.

Judging by the fact that the number of such incidents is only growing, (https://t.me/rybar/67746) in the foreseeable future, the phenomenon may take on a wave-like character. Especially since there are fewer and fewer loyal to the Kyiv regime people in the so-called Ukraine.

Our sources in the General Staff have learned that Syrsky has begun urgently forming a new corps, which will have to organize a new offensive operation of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. The General Staff has already begun modeling scenarios and choosing the best directions for a strike against the Russian army, but most likely the operation will again be prepared by British intelligence and sent to the Commander-in-Chief for implementation, as was the case with Kursk.

Our source reports that Russian FABs have become much more accurate in flying to their targets. If they were previously used to cover an area, now they work in groups together with reconnaissance drones that identify targets (equipment, warehouses, infantry concentrations, etc.), and then the FABs fly right to the target.

This greatly complicates the defense of any lines. Even well-built fortifications, of which there are not many, cannot withstand the blow of a large FAB.

Nobody talks about losses. They are huge for the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

In this case, Russians are ahead of Ukraine by tens of times.

Krasnoarmeysk direction. Right flank

Assault units of the Russian Armed Forces advanced from Vodyanoye II and knocked the AFU out of Beryozovka.

At the same time, they occupied the western approaches to Tarasovka. For its Ukrainian garrison, the situation over the past two days has been sad. From the south-west, our assault groups are moving to their initial positions too.

Today units of the Russian Armed Forces knocked out the enemy from positions west and southwest of the road junction and reached the approaches to the south-eastern outskirts of Malinovka. Ukrop has started to subside here again…..

The situation is critical : The Ukrainian Armed Forces group near Kurakhovo is on the verge of encirclement after the loss of Dachnoye

“Now the fighting is gradually moving to the southern part of Ulakly and Constantinople. The Russians will be able to encircle our units at any moment, everything depends on when the order is received to do this and increase the pressure on our positions,” the Ukrainian Armed Forces media say.

Also, the Russian army “is additionally taking several more strongholds to the north, literally in order to finally occupy the western and northern parts of Andreyevka.”

The situation here is critical, the Ukrainian Armed Forces fighter added.

Bogatyr direction

As a result of the attack, the Russian Armed Forces units managed to break through to Constantinople from the southeast and to Ulakly from the southeast and east. 

At Bogatyr there is a battle for a stronghold on the highway, covering the approaches to the settlement.

The “Kurakhovsky pocket” has virtually ceased to exist. 

Simultaneously with the storming of the settlements there is a mopping up of separate pockets of resistance in the fields to the east.

The offensive of the Russian Army from Novy Komar has begun!!! Soon there will be new cauldrons and semi-cauldrons for the Ukrainian Armed Forces. The front is moving to the Dnepropetrovsk region and from the southern direction.

The Russian army liberated Yampolevka, expanding its bridgehead on the right bank of the Zherebets River 

In the Liman direction, Russian troops again expanded their bridgehead on the right bank of the Zherebets River, effectively driving the Ukrainian Armed Forces out of Yampolevka, advancing towards Liman to a depth of more than 1 km.

This data is confirmed by footage from the Ukrainian Armed Forces, in which they are shelling the positions of Russian infantry already on the southern outskirts of the village of Yampolovka.
