Moscow relishes Western divisions: from Merz to Ukrainian concessions

Dominant angle identified — does not reflect unanimity of this country’s media

ANALYSIS

RT extensively quotes Merz saying Ukraine may need to accept territorial losses to join the EU, treating it as a near-admission of Western defeat. TASS reports Trump himself saying he is 'disappointed in NATO.' RT maps out €111 billion in German rearmament since 2022 — not to alarm, but to highlight European war-effort fatigue. Cooperation with North Korea is presented as legitimate military cooperation between sovereign nations, reinforced by Kim Jong-un's pledge to support the 'sacred war.'
