#MichaelCohen is asked about his #House testimony on the #Russia investigation. This will lead to questioning about him lying to #Congress re plans to build a #Trump Tower in #Moscow. Cohen has said that he did it to protect Trump.
Cohen testifies that at the time the #TrumpOrganization was paying for his lawyer, & he was part of a joint defense agreement. Cohen testifies he felt he “needed” the protection of Trump at the time & to protect him in return.
Former Ukrainian President Viktor #Yushchenko said the long delay by the U.S. Congress in approving military aid for his country was “a colossal waste of time,” allowing Russian President Vladimir #Putin to inflict more suffering in the 2-year-old invasion and prolonging the war.

#Georgia's parliament on Tuesday passed the third and final reading of a "foreign agents" bill, clearing a major hurdle on its way to becoming law.
The draft now goes to President Salome #Zourabichvili, who has said she will veto it, but her decision can be overridden by another vote in parliament, controlled by the ruling party and its allies.
The bill passed with 84 members of parliament out of 150 voting in favour.
#Russia's main task is to achieve victory on the battlefield in #Ukraine with the minimal loss of troops, Andrei #Belousov, Russian President Vladimir #Putin's nominee for defence minister, said on Tuesday.
Belousov, who has no military experience, has been tasked by Putin with maximising efficiencies in Russia's war economy as its troops attempt to push deeper into Ukraine in the third year of the conflict.
Russian President Vladimir #Putin will visit #China on May 16-17 to hold talks with his Chinese counterpart, #Xi Jinping, the state-owned news agency RIA Novosti reported on May 14, citing the #Kremlin's press service.
This would be Putin's first trip abroad since he was inaugurated for his fifth term in office after the March election.

U.S. bans Russian uranium imports, key to nuclear fuel supply
“Pres Biden on Monday evening signed a bipartisan bill prohibiting Russian imports of enriched uranium, the main fuel used by nuclear power plants, a move intended to cut off one of the last significant flows of money from the US to #Russia amid the war in #Ukraine”

#Ukraine 's air defense struggles with #Russia 's intensified drone and missile attacks, resulting in decreased effectiveness, per the Wall Street Journal.
In the last six months, interception of Russian missiles dropped from 73% to 46%, hitting 30% in April. At the same time, Shahed's interception rate dipped just 1% to 82% over the same period.
It's insane, they act as if they have not lost nearly 450k people.
Not that that factoid would bother putin, but .... there are more people. WTF.
They CAN do something about putin, he's a primate (but not human), and there ARE windows and tea in russia. Ammo, stuff like that.

3 months later, MichaelCohen was back in federal court to plead guilty once again. That time, he accepted responsibility for lying to #Congress about plans to build a #TrumpTower in #Moscow, #Russia saying he did so out of loyalty to #Trump.
His loyalty faded in 2018 when authorities zeroed in on Cohen, & Trump threw him under the bus. Cohen is now the star witness in this #criminal trial, which centers on a #HushMoney deal.

New week—new destroyed russian aircraft.
The warriors from the 47th Mechanized Brigade shot down a russian Ka-52 "Alligator" attack helicopter in the Avdiivka direction. The Ka-52's unit cost is approximately $16 million.
Russian offensive efforts to seize #Vovchansk (northeast of #Kharkiv City) are in large part a consequence of the tacit Western policy that Ukrainian forces cannot use Western-provided systems to strike legitimate military targets within Russia.
