In at least one of the polls they polled 400 Democrats and 1200 Republicans to get that neck and neck reading. How about if they did half and half? They don't want to do that because it would show Biden far out in front and that's not exciting.

❗️Ukraine has successfully regained control of the Boyko Towers which are offshore drilling platforms used for oil and gas production near the coast of Crimea in the Black Sea. This achievement has been reported by the Main Directorate of Intelligence.

The operation to reclaim the Boyko Towers was a distinctive and well-executed effort carried out by units of the Main Directorate of Intelligence. Notably, they regained control over the Petro Godovalets and Ukraina drilling platforms, as well as the Tavrida and Syvash drilling platforms.

During the operation, special forces were able to seize valuable assets, including a stockpile of unguided aerial missiles (NAR type) used in helicopters and the Neva radar system, which has the capability to track ship movements in the Black Sea.

It's worth noting that the Boyko Towers were initially occupied by Russia in 2015 and repurposed for military use during the full-scale invasion, serving as helipads and housing radar equipment. Ukraine's successful recovery of these platforms represents a significant development in the region.

🇺🇦 The Ministry of Foreign Affairs criticized the weak wording regarding Ukraine in the G20 final statement

"Ukraine is grateful to the partners who tried to include strong wording in the text. At the same time, in the part regarding Russia's aggression against Ukraine, the Group of Twenty has nothing to be proud of. Obviously, the participation of the Ukrainian side would allow the participants to better understand the situation. The principle of "nothing about Ukraine without Ukraine" remains key like never before," said the spokesman of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Oleg Nikolenko.
