Vladimír Votápek labeled Donald Trump's effort to reach an agreement with Vladimir Putin as a fundamental mistake. He considered the main risk to be that Trump would pressure Kyiv to stop attacks on Russian refineries. According to Votápek, these represented the strongest leverage that Volodymyr Zelensky had to compel Putin to engage in serious talks about ending the fighting. Votápek stated that if Ukraine does not give up its effective weapon, Trump could significantly limit American aid, including the sharing of intelligence, which Europe, in his view, is currently unable to replace. He linked Trump's effort to negotiate with Russia to the impacts of the attack on Iran on oil and petroleum product prices and to concerns about Republican results in the midterms. He argued that any pressure on Ukraine could prolong the war and increase losses for the Ukrainian army and suffering for civilians. He also shared a headline suggesting that Russia was supposed to supply the USA and the world with nearly five million tons of diesel. https://t.co/QQSWEJQMjE #Trump #Putin #Ukrajina (translated)

Matej Rigelnik wrote that people went to the forest also so that their children would not speak German and to preserve the language and names of villages. He emphasized that people were willing to undertake great deeds to preserve these things. He recalled his grandmother's words in the Trbovlje maternity hospital, where, according to her, around 900 children were born a year forty years ago, while today only around 350 are born. The grandmother added that most of them are, in her opinion, no longer "ours." Rigelnik noted that Slovenians gained their own country, schools, books, and flags, but he wondered whether the people who fought for this counted on the possibility that over time there would be fewer and fewer of those who could pass it on. #jezik #kultura #zgodovina (translated)

The newspaper P – Paukner Media claimed that the Kolín company Draslovka continued to operate in the Russian market despite a statement from March 2022 about halting supplies to Russia. It identified Jan Dobrovský as a co-owner, describing him as a significant supporter of the STAN movement and other politicians. The author stated that according to a study by the Russian institute Агентство Плодородия, Draslovka's exports to Russia increased from 300 tons of pesticides worth $500,000 in 2021 to 1,000 tons for $1.9 million in 2022. Records from the customs database Volza reportedly also captured shipments of the product Retacel 750 in 2022, including three shipments of 21,396 units, valued at $49,817.25, $49,414.29, and $49,168.93. The post further claimed that Draslovka made additional supplies in 2023 and obtained an extension of its license to sell pesticides in Russia until 2034 in 2024. According to the author, the company collaborated with Russian authorities during the licensing process, and its products were sold to both farmers and retail in Russia. The newspaper P – Paukner Media also stated that the owners of Draslovka and Dobrovský supported political entities and personalities that, according to him, acted against Russia. It attributed a donation of over 300,000 crowns to Dobrovský for Petr Pavel and noted that the group BPD Partners was the largest patron of STAN. In 2025, Dobrovský was reported to contribute 1.7 million crowns to the movement from his own funds. The author also mentioned support for the coalition SPOLU, Danuše Nerudová, and Jan Farský. The post criticized the contradiction between the declared termination of operations in Russia and the described supplies and licensing process. It noted that neither the group BPD Partners nor Draslovka responded to its inquiries about business in Russia. It also asked whether STAN or the coalition SPOLU would take a stance on their supporter’s business activities. #RuskáFederace #Politika #STAN (translated)
