US must get out of Ukraine – Trump

"The United States needs a clear exit strategy for the Ukraine conflict, Donald Trump has told supporters at a campaign rally, insisting that neither his Democratic rival Kamala Harris nor President Joe Biden has any such plan.
Biden and Kamala got us into this war in Ukraine, and now they can't get us out. They can't get us out,” the former president told the crowd in Savannah, Georgia, on Tuesday, reiterating his promise to end the conflict immediately if he is re-elected.
I think that we're stuck in that war unless I'm president. I'll get it done. I'll negotiate; I’ll get us out. We gotta get out. Biden says, ‘We will not leave until we win,’” Trump claimed.
“What happens if the Russians win? That’s what they do – they fight wars. As someone told me the other day, they beat Hitler; they beat Napoleon. That’s what they do. They fight. And it’s not pleasant,Trump said.
At another campaign rally on Monday, the Republican candidate claimed that Vladimir Zelensky wants Harris to win “so badly” because, as long as Democrats remain in power, the Ukrainian leader walks away with $60 billion every time he comes to the US." RT

What Was A Japanese Spy Doing In Belarus?

"Belarusian media reported earlier this month that their security services busted a Japanese spy. He allegedly entered into a fictitious marriage that helped him legalize his stay in the country, after which he set up a business in Gomel to explain his travels, including to the border. He also taught Japanese. The spy allegedly had over 9,000 photos of roads, bridges, and military facilities and was actively in contact with his embassy. These reports raised a lot of eyebrows since few expected Japan to spy on Belarus." ZH
