https://www.potatobusiness.com/marke...-on-eu-states/Potato Deficit Pushes Belarus to End Food Import Ban on EU States
Belarus has lifted its ban on importing key food staples—including potatoes, apples, onions, and cabbage—from so-called “unfriendly states,” including European Union member countries. The decision, effective from May 27, 2025, was officially confirmed by the Belarusian Ministry of Agriculture and Food and reported by state news agency BelTA.
The easing of import restrictions comes against the backdrop of rising domestic food inflation and a pronounced potato deficit, which has gripped both Belarus and neighboring Russia in recent months. The Belarusian government cited the move as aligned with its broader policy of “openness, peacefulness, and good neighborliness,” a message it has also used to promote visa-free travel policies for EU citizens.
According to a statement by the Ministry of Agriculture, the import restrictions—first imposed in early 2022 as a retaliatory measure against Western sanctions—had been “restrictive for both domestic consumers and regional trade flows.” Officials framed the reversal as a pragmatic response to evolving market needs and recent European Union tariff increases on Belarusian agricultural exports.
In April 2025, the EU introduced higher tariffs on certain agricultural imports from Belarus, including dairy and meat products, as part of broader economic measures in response to Minsk’s support for Russia’s war in Ukraine. The Belarusian government portrayed its own policy shift as one of restraint and flexibility in contrast to Brussels’ more punitive posture.
The policy change also arrives amid significant strain on Belarus’s domestic food supply. President Alexander Lukashenko has repeatedly acknowledged the country’s potato shortage, which he attributed in part to domestic producers prioritizing exports to Russia, where prices have surged due to falling yields and supply issues.

Zelensky: Give me $40 Billion per year for Ukraine
The joint decision was rejected. But hey, you can still send money directly to Ukraine. They have a website you can donate if you're serious about it.

Go do it.

https://euromaidanpress.com/2025/06/...a-ukraine-war/Frontline report: Kazakhstan just took the gunpowder out of Putin’s war in Ukraine
Today, there are interesting updates from the Russian Federation. Here, the increasing number of warnings, which have evolved into outright open threats from Russia, has pushed the Kazakhstan government to take decisive steps towards establishing an alliance with Western countries.
From changing key trade partners to seeking new military alliances, Kazakhstan seems determined to ensure its stability in the case of any Russian escalation. Kazakhstan, long considered a critical strategic partner by Russia, is increasingly distancing itself from Moscow’s orbit, underscoring a wider fracturing of Russian alliances in Central Asia.
Russia’s interests in Kazakhstan run deep, with military bases such as the famed Baikonur Cosmodrome, a crucial facility for space launches. Kazakhstan’s geographic proximity to vital Russian military installations and its abundant natural resources, including energy and minerals, have traditionally made it strategically significant to Moscow.
...
The recent dismissal of Kazakhstan’s pro-Russian defense minister, Ruslan Zhaksylykov, exemplifies a transition. Known for his overtly pro-Russian stance, he faced domestic criticism due to various scandals, including alleged corruption linked to military procurement, and controversial remarks during meetings with Russian Defense Minister Andrei Belousov, when he declared the Russians a brother people, echoing Kremlin narratives used in Ukraine.
His replacement by Dauren Kosanov, former Commander of the Air Defense Forces, signals a significant policy shift. President Tokayev’s swift administrative moves underscore an accelerated shift toward adopting Western military standards, demonstrated further by the country’s increasingly frequent joint exercises with NATO nations such as Türkiye and recent agreements with the United Kingdom.

Historically, Kazakhstan, alongside Uzbekistan, has supplied substantial quan ies of cotton pulp used to produce nitrocellulose—critical in the manufacture of Russian explosives and gunpowder. These exports, though officially neutral, have supported Russia’s war industry.
Recent indicators, however, suggest Kazakhstan is cutting back these shipments and exploring Western-oriented military supply chains. If fully redirected toward NATO-aligned countries, the move would deal a serious blow to Russia’s ammunition production capability, especially as the Ukraine war drags on.
Russian analysts and political circles have expressed outrage, framing Kazakhstan’s realignment as a betrayal and warning of lost Russian dominance in Central Asian security affairs.

Russia’s Economy Minister, Maxim Reshetnikov, warned today that the country is “on the verge” of recession, basing his assessment on “current business sentiment and indicators” he shared at the St Petersburg International Economic Forum.
Urging action, he added: “Everything else depends on our decisions,” and called on the central bank to extend “a little love for the economy” by adjusting its monetary stance.
Quoting him: “The numbers indicate cooling, but all our numbers are [like] a rearview mirror.”
“Judging by the way businesses currently feel and the indicators, we are already, it seems to me, on the brink of going into a recession”, he added.

https://kyivinsider.com/another-of-r...r-stay-afloat/Another of Russia’s colonies is collapsing as Transnistria says it can no longer stay afloat
...
This marks a dramatic unraveling of one of Russia’s longest-standing satellite regions. Since the 1992 war with Moldova, Transnistria has been effectively occupied by Russia. Moscow maintains roughly 1,500 troops in the region along with a large Soviet-era weapons depot and military base in Cobasna—making it one of the most heavily militarized frozen conflicts in Europe. For over three decades, the region has been politically loyal to the Kremlin and economically dependent on Russian energy and subsidies.
Now, that dependency is backfiring. According to the region’s so-called ministers of economy and finance, Transnistria’s economic foundations are collapsing under a dual burden: a crippling energy shortage and geopolitical instability. The Euronews report highlights that industrial output has “dropped almost by half”, while exports plunged by about a third.
More than 450,000 residents are now grappling with service disruptions. Russia halted its free gas deliveries via Ukraine on January 1, 2025—a move widely seen as political blackmail aimed at pressuring Moldova. The result has been catastrophic. Without Russian gas, the Cuciurgan power plant—which provides most of Moldova’s electricity—shut down or switched to coal. Residents are left without reliable heating or hot water.
Water supply interruptions are now routine. Scheduled blackouts of up to four hours per day are common, compounding the hardship for civilians already struggling with inflation and food shortages.
