Russia Gives Iran More Drones; Fibre Optic Tech; EU Fear NATO Collapse; Putin Army Will Take Donbass (Alexander Mercouris)

The war against Iran is a road to ruin. The US military will fail when it comes to taking and holding Iranian territory. All the countries of the Middle East, once their oil refineries are hit, are on the course to disaster. The US simply cannot defend them. The USA also cannot be trusted with any peace proposal. Peace may only come if they leave the region - or fall back to Israeli territory and where air strikes are discontinued.  

Meanwhile, in Ukraine, the Russians are close to taking all of the Donbass territory and are continuing their advances. They no longer seem to have an interest in ending the war with a political settlement. The only question is how far will they advance towards Poland. They may be forced to take over the entire country.
