   U.S. Congress prepares "Graham Bill" with 500% tariffs against Russia – media
   
   The U.S. Congress has intensified discussions on a sanctions bill proposed by Republican Senator Lindsey Graham, which includes unprecedented pressure measures on Russia, such as a 500% tariff and blocking key banks.
   
   The bill could be brought to a vote before the August recess, but if delayed, not earlier than September.
   
   The Sanctioning Russia Act of 2025 provides for:
   freezing assets and sanctions against Russian leadership, military, and oligarchs;
   blocking the Central Bank of Russia, Sberbank, and Gazprombank, prohibiting U.S. institutions from dealing with them;
    
   
   a complete ban on energy exports to Russia and investments in its energy sector;
   
   secondary sanctions against third-country companies cooperating with Russia in the oil and gas sector;
   
   a 500% tariff on all goods and services of Russian origin, as well as the same tariffs against countries aiding Russia in circumventing restrictions.
   
   Despite broad support in the Senate (85 out of 100), voting was delayed awaiting agreement from President Donald Trump. After his position shifted at the end of June, the bill is being revised, including provisions allowing the president to delay sanctions.
   
   The law includes a 180-day deferral mechanism, with the possibility of repeated deferral subject to congressional approval. At the same time, Trump will have the authority to decide independently when and which sanctions to implement—provided Russia does not show willingness to negotiate a peace agreement or violates existing accords.

   Europa wantrouwt Trumps gewijzigde retoriek over Oekraïne, aldus Politico News.
   
   Er heerst verwarring in Europese hoofdsteden over de recente beleidswijzigingen van de Trump-regering ten aanzien van Oekraïne en over wie de beslissingen neemt binnen het Pentagon.
   
   Als gevolg hiervan bereiden Europese regeringen zich voor op verschillende scenario's, waardoor het moeilijk is om een ??strategie te formuleren voor de Russische oorlog tegen Oekraïne, aangezien Trumps buitenlandse beleid naar zijn eigen grillen steeds lijkt te veranderen.
   
   Trump zou bijvoorbeeld meer maatregelen tegen Rusland kunnen nemen, de wapenstroom naar Oekraïne opnieuw kunnen stoppen, of zelfs Amerikaanse troepen uit Europa kunnen terugtrekken, die de verdediging van het continent ondersteunen.

   Ukrainian intelligence officer shot dead in Kyiv
   
   A senior Ukrainian intelligence officer has been gunned down in broad daylight in Kyiv, officials have said.
   
   The agent of the domestic Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) was shot several times in a car park after being approached by an unidentified assailant who then fled the scene, footage circulated on social media shows.
   
   The spy agency did not identify the victim, though Ukrainian media outlets have named him as Colonel Ivan Voronych.

   Op Youtube is een video van de moord te zien, maar plaatsing lijkt mij ongepast.

   De Oekraïense militaire inlichtingendienst Kyrylo Budanov vertelde Bloomberg dat Noord-Korea nu tot 40% van de Russische munitie voor de oorlog in Oekraïne levert.
   
   Pyongyang levert ook ballistische raketten en artilleriesystemen. In ruil daarvoor levert Rusland geld en technologie, waarmee Noord-Korea de internationale isolatie kan omzeilen.

   Trump to Use Presidential Authority for First Time to Send Weapons to Ukraine
   
   U.S. President Donald Trump, for the first time since returning to office, will send weapons to Ukraine from American stockpiles, under the Presidential Drawdown Authority (PDA). The value of the aid could amount to around $300 million.
   
   Reuters reported about this on July 10, citing two sources familiar with his decision.
   
   The new military aid package may include interceptor missiles for Patriot air defense systems, as well as “medium-range offensive missiles,” although a final decision on the specific equipment has not yet been made.
   
   As noted by Reuters, so far, the Trump administration has only sent weapons authorized by former President Joe Biden, who was a staunch supporter of Kyiv.
   
   Reuters recalled that the Presidential Drawdown Authority allowed the president to draw from weapons stocks to help allies in an emergency.

    Ground drone maker Tencore raises $3.7 million in one of the largest known investments in Ukraine defense tech
    
    A U.S.-Ukrainian investment group, MITS Capital, has invested $3.74 million in Tencore, a Ukrainian company that manufactures military robots deployed on the front lines against Russia, the companies announced in a press release on July 11.
    
    The deal, announced at the Ukraine Recovery Conference in Rome, represents one of the largest publicly disclosed investments in Ukrainian defense technology since Russia's full-scale invasion began in 2022.
    
    International investment in Ukrainian defense startups jumped fourfold in 2024, reaching $40 million compared to nearly zero in the previous two years.
    
    Tencore produces the TerMIT unmanned ground vehicle, which meets NATO standards and is already being used in combat against Russian forces.
