The Trump Administration has stated that it was NOT informed in advance. Ukraine was putting out the fake news claiming that they had previously told the Trump Administration in advance. They were most likely trying to scare Putin to prevent him from retaliating, implying that Trump has his back. This was indeed Russia’s Pearl Harbor. Zelensky wrote on X on Sunday wrote:
“Head of the Security Service of Ukraine Vasyl Maliuk delivered a report regarding today’s operation. An absolutely brilliant result. A result achieved solely by Ukraine. One year, six months, and nine days from the start of planning to effective execution. Our most long-range operation. Our people involved in preparing the operation were withdrawn from Russian territory in time.”
Note that Zelensky also goes out of his way to state another lie: “A result achieved solely by Ukraine.” There is absolutely no way Ukraine did this alone. All of the EU was involved, just as MI6 instructed Ukraine to invade with the Kursk maneuver. Claiming Trump was informed in advance but not NATO or the EU after Trump threw him out of the White House, and everyone I speak to on Capitol Hill lost respect for Zelensky after that staged attempt to embarrass Trump into keeping the funding going.
The ruthless Neocon who was the fake Republican on the January 6th Committee that tried to stop Trump from even running for president, Adam Kinzinger of Illinois, also wrote on X: “Important to note: the targeting of Russian bombers is COMPLETELY LEGAL and expected in a war. A response from Russia will target civilians and be a war crime. But it’s Russia. They bombed hospitals in Ukraine and Syria. They are…. A terrorist state.” This is the same guy who claimed NATO can take out Russia in three days.
Let’s make this very clear. These bombers were NOT being used in Ukraine. They were by no means an act of defense. This was an act of aggression – PERIOD!
This is indeed the Russian ‘Pearl Harbor.’ If I were Putin, this is the time to annihilate Ukraine and eradicate it from the face of Europe. Peace will NEVER happen. Putin should now destroy Ukraine to remove it as a proxy war client. Drop the leaflets and give the Ukrainian people 5 days to migrate to Europe. This is akin to Rome’s destruction of Carthage, which put an end to the Punic War and ensured that no city would ever rise there again. Only then will the EU be forced to come out of the closet and admit that it is the real enemy. The US engaged in WWII after Pearl Harbor. That is the magnitude of what Ukraine has done. I would expect Russia to now go on full nuclear alert against the EU.
DEFCON 3
I believe that Russia has now gone to DEFCON 3 out of 5. The wild card is Macron. My sources in Romania confirm that Macron was there for the election to ensure that the EU won and the people of Romania would be the next wave of pawns to die for the EU agenda led by Macron to vanquish Russia. They call Macron the Petite Napoleon. He is behind WWIII and is the leader pushing for war, as is now Germany’s Merz.
This is the picture of the German GDP. Germany could even be the first EU state to crumble. Note that June has been the primary target for the whole year. Look at the Volatility for July and August. Germany is 25% of the EU economy. Speaking to political sources, I am informed that it is now Germany really pushing hard for war against Russia using Ukraine. This is looking really bad with each market you review.

COMMENT #1: Hi Marty,
Just observation form Croatia, it is just unbelievable how much lies MSM and Senators like Lindsey Graham are spreading about war in Ukraine.
Lindsey just visited Ukraine and labeled peace talks as a joke and he is saying that Russians are not trying to negotiate. As well he is voicing support for War against Russia and he is saying that Ukraine is not losing war. In my opinion at this stage of the war this is such an obvious lie. It is hard to understand and accept that someone as a USA senator can be so mean and hateful. What price we as USA will have to pay for such a senatorial behavior? For him to spread War Agenda vs Russia and China even thou he is hiding behind statements that he is supporting the peace talks that Trump is pushing, is just very mean.
I am now in Croatia and have to say that nobody here believes that war will spread. Whenever I mention that war will spread and it will escalate in to 2027 people here think that I am crazy. I think that lots of Europeans are the same they will be super surprised when this thing explodes during next year per Socrates.
Regards,
GD
COMMENT #2: Hello, Mr. Armstrong;
Thank you for doing podcasts here in Serbia. I can say that we are getting very concerned when Macron is telling Asia to forget about China and focus on Ukraine, and then Merz is handing NATO missiles to Ukraine, which will attack Moscow. The mood here is viewing the EU and NATO as the aggressors. You know that NATO bombed us into submission because Serbia is generally pro-Russia, since we saw NATO in action, and you are correct, never trust a Ukrainian. Your quote from Churchill is correct that the truth needs a bodyguard of lies to protect it.
Thank you for your courage. So few have that today.
VO
REPLY: The European press is doing everything to downplay the spread of the war spreading. They keep claiming Ukraine is winning and that Russia is failing. They run stories that make it sound as if Putin fears being hanged, as if a single person is waging this entire war. Zelensky tried to assassinate Putin on May 20th. They know the truth. Putin is the ONLY adult in the room, who may not be on Cocaine. Remove Putin, and you will have World War III, for the guys behind him are Russian Neocons.
The European press pretends this war is only about Ukraine. Yet, several European leaders have described the Russia-Ukraine war as a “proxy war,” but the most prominent and consistent figure using this terminology is Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán. Back in July 2022, in a radio interview, he explicitly stated:
“This is a proxy war: the infrastructure is Ukrainian, but the money and weapons come from America, and the soldiers are Ukrainian.”
Orbán framed the conflict as a battle between the U.S./NATO and Russia, arguing that Ukraine is a “battleground” for larger powers. He has consistently echoed this view, criticizing Western arms deliveries to Ukraine and EU sanctions against Russia. He claims Hungary seeks to “stay out of this war” to protect its national interests.
French President Emmanuel Macron (June 2022) suggested avoiding humiliating Russia, warning that the conflict risked becoming a “proxy war” if diplomatic solutions were ignored. However, he later attempted to back out, clarifying his support for Ukraine’s sovereignty.
Leaders of both Serbia and Belarus (non-EU) have also used similar language, warning that this has been a deliberate strategy to wage war against Russia. The fake news tries to mislead the public, claiming that it is a war of Russian aggression against Ukrainian sovereignty. If that was the case, Putin could have taken all of Ukraine instead of just protecting the Russians in the Donbas, for which he gets criticism from the hardline Russians.
Orbán’s stance has isolated Hungary within the EU/NATO, with critics accusing him of parroting Kremlin propaganda and undermining European unity. However, the EU needs this war and has not taken any measures to resolve the conflict or promote peace. Merkel even admitted that Germany and France never intended to honor the Minsk Agreement that would have prevented this war. Moreover, the NEOCON #1 rule is to avoid communication, ensuring there will never be peace. This is why not a single European leader will talk to Putin. It took Trump to open communications, and they are doing their best to push Trump into this war.
Sun Tzu in his Art of War states that sowing doubt, fear, and discord within the enemy camp is key. However, this is what the fake News and European politics are doing to their own people, pretending that this war is confined to Ukraine vs Russia and will not spread, yet pushing for NATO troops to enter Ukraine, which is starting drafts throughout Europe. A blind man can see that the Fake News narrative is indeed fake when the governments are doing the exact opposite. Putin was fooled once with the Mink Agreement that the West refused to honor, so he would be a fool to agree to any peace deal while they are constantly rearming Ukraine and boosting all their military preparations.
Sun Tzu prioritized indirect knowledge gathering (espionage) and strategic deception over open communication or negotiation with the enemy. His focus was on gaining an overwhelming informational and psychological advantage to win efficiently, often by making the enemy act against their own interests based on false beliefs. Direct communication was generally seen as a potential vulnerability or a lesser tool compared to the power of deception and superior intelligence.
Sun Tzu also advocated Winning Without Fighting. This is the NATO/EU strategy of using Eastern Europeans as pawns to reduce Russia, so they can later walk in without a fight. They are clearly positioning to force Russia to submit or make disastrous mistakes, making battle unnecessary between the EU, letting Eastern Europeans die for their objectives. This is why they intered into the Romanian elections so they too can use Romanians as pawns in this battle to conquer Russia. Trump will NEVER get a peace deal unless he wakes the hell up, for he is being played again by American NEOCONS. They cleverly got the two neutral countries during previous wars to put their citizens at risk for their goals – Switzerland and Sweden.
The Conservative Party leader Kemi Badenoch made the plain statement on Sky News:
“Israel is fighting a proxy war on behalf of the UK, just like Ukraine is on behalf of Western Europe against Russia. We have to get serious.”
While several figures have used the term, behind the curtain, most European leaders and NATO admit the Ukraine war is a “proxy war,” reflecting their unique stance within the EU. This framing remains highly contentious and is widely seen as undermining Ukraine’s legitimacy in defending its territory.
I have supported Trump because he was against the war. I fear he has taken a severe wrong turn and has taken advice from NEOCONS who are still in the closet. His harsh words against Putin are outright provocative, and this is not about negotiating a business deal. If he cannot open his eyes and see that it is the EU and NATO who are sabotaging any peace deal with Russia because they want war and do not give a shit about their own people, then we are watching World War III in the making as our ECM model turns on Monday – June 2nd.
Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, on Tuesday, appeared to warn Trump about the possibility of World War III as he is escalating tensions between the nuclear powers. He wrote on the social platform X: “Regarding Trump’s words about Putin ‘playing with fire’ and ‘really bad things’ happening to Russia. I only know of one REALLY BAD thing — WWIII,”Medvedev wrote Tuesday“I hope Trump understands this,” he added.
Medvedev has pointed out Trump’s inflammatory threats on Truth Social. Trump wrote that Putin was “playing with fire” after Sunday’s deadly Russian air strikes on Ukraine. I thought Trump had better instincts than this, but I suppose I was wrong. There can be no peace when the EU is stabbing Trump in the back and has even admitted that, as long as Kaja Kallas, the ruthless, bloodthirsty Neocon in charge of EU foreign policy, has outright said that the EU will not honor any peace deal Trump creates.
Trump will walks us into World War III with this bullshit. Kaja Kallas has openly stated that Russia is too big and it must be broken up. I do not know who is feeding Trump geopolitical advice, but they are manipulating him into World War III. I had hoped I could at last defeat my own computer, but I will fail again. This is not going to end well for the entire world.
Republican lawmakers have encouraged Trump to place additional sanctions on Russia, arguing that economic pressure could cause the Kremlin to ease up on the battlefield. Sanctions have NEVER worked even once in history. All they do is confirm to the Russian people that they are a piece of shit and the West is trying to get them to overthrow their government for what purpose? To allow Macron and his horde of pirates to invade Russia and strip mine its natural resources to propel the EU to the pinnacle of power and leave North America its vasal state?
Trump, who vowed to end the war in last year’s presidential campaign, and against whom the Neocons launched a criminal investigation to stop him, and even Dich Cheney endorsed Kamala for president because he did as she was told. The NEOCONS are in complete control of the EU. They are in Paris and London. If Trump does not know this, then he is being fed FAKE NEWS and it is not CNN, but Neocon sympathizers in his own ranks.
Trump responded when asked whether he was considering sanctions on Russia and Putin, Trump said, “Absolutely. He’s killing a lot of people. I don’t know what’s wrong with him. What the hell happened to him, right?” “He’s killing a lot of people, and I’m not happy with that.”
Trump has stepped up his criticism of Putin when he should be looking in his side and rear mirrors. Stating publicly that Putin has gone absolutely CRAZY was not conducive to a working relationship. I would slam the door on his ass.
If Trump cannot see what Europe is doing, then there is ZERO hope for peace, and the USA will be involved in World War III along with Canada. Putin would have to be insane to agree to any peace deal with Trump, while Europe does not want peace and is using Ukraine as a proxy war, and they do not care if a single Ukrainian survives as long as they take one Russian with them.
Putin should agree to peace when EVERY WU leader, except Hungary, is pushing for World War III? I do not know who is advising Trump, but they are a Neocon still in the closet who can taste Russian blood. The EU will collapse if it does not resort to war to try to unify its members. The EU needs war to stay together, for they can feel the power slipping through their fingers. Every podcast I do in Europe now asks WHEN will the EU breakup, not IF.
Trump is on the wrong side, and he will be the president of a bloodbath. China will join Russia because they know this is a war against NATO, not Ukraine. There is ZERO interest in any peace deal in Europe so Trump is on the wrong side of the negotiations.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov rejected Trump’s proposal of a follow-up at the Vatican, where the president met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in April.
Then we have developments coming from Capitol Hill as House GOP members, including Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (Ga.) say the U.S. should pull out of the war, despite a push from Trump and Senate Republicans for more sanctions on Moscow. The Hill reported Greene’s comments:
“With President Trump, both countries could be pursuing a peace deal that would lead to historic trade deals. That would be overwhelmingly incredible for the people of their countries. But instead, they are both crazy and pursue war. Shame on both of these countries and shame on any politician that wants to continue to engage America in more meddling actions in more foreign wars.”
“I along with most Americans want nothing to do with either of these countries while they are at war with one another. And I’ll extend that to any country that wants to engage in war with others. The people of the world want peace and prosperity and that’s what I support.”
Then there is the Neocon Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), who is eager to impose harsh sanctions on Russia, which has more than 80 co-sponsors. Graham would be in prison for a hate crime if he weren’t a Senator. Suppose he said that in London, he would be thrown in a dungeon to rot. And this is the impartial advice that Trump is listening to? I hope to God he is not. But I fear my computer will be right again. We are going down the path that leads to hell.

Eventually both sides have to get past the talking points and start putting demands to paper.
According to President Trump’s envoy to Ukraine, Keith Kellogg, Ukraine has put forth a draft proposal outlining their general terms for a ceasefire between Ukraine and Russia. Now the Trump administration is awaiting a similar draft from the Kremlin.
Once both drafts, what they are calling “term sheets”, are received and reviewed it appears that President Trump will reengage the process and seek to bring both parties to the negotiation table. At least that looks like the general outline.
Retired Lt. Gen. Keith Kellogg, notably an anti-Russia leaning participant in the construct (worked for Mike Pence), appeared on Fox and Friends earlier this morning to discuss the current status of the issues, against the backdrop of President Trump’s frustration. WATCH:
(Via MSM) – […] “We have received everything we need. The facts are sufficient for action. We do not need any more evidence,” Kellogg said he said on Fox News, speaking about recent developments in Russia’s war against Ukraine.
Following the first direct meeting between Ukraine and Russia since the war started in Istanbul on May 16, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said the Kremlin would draw up a draft proposal listing its conditions for a lasting peace, which is due to be released this week.
Once the White House has both documents they will coordinate between the two sides. According to the Ukraine envoy, another round of talks will happen afterward.
‘There is going to be another meeting, and we believe it will probably be in Geneva,’ he said. Ukraine’s allies want the meeting before the June meeting of the G7 countries in Canada, the newspaper La Repubblica wrote.
Russia wants to return to Turkey for a second round of talks with Ukraine, Lavrov said during a joint press conference in Moscow with Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan on May 27. Earlier, Lavrov dismissed the idea of holding negotiations at the Vatican as unrealistic.
[…] Kellogg previously served as National Security Adviser to former US Vice President Mike Pence and is currently a prominent voice among Republican foreign policy figures shaping Washington’s stance on Ukraine. Vedomosti reports that his statements reflect a broader shift among US officials towards Ukraine after the White House has been criticized for being too soft on Russia since the ceasefire talks kicked off in Riyadh on February 18.

COMMENT: Mr. Armstrong, it is becoming obvious why the government has suppressed you, and others are trying to prevent people from listening to you. What has blown my mind is that you put out the ECM cycle on the Russian Ukraine War, and you had the date of May 15th published since 2022. The negotiations on Ukraine in Istanbul with Russia are scheduled for May 15, the exact day you said this war would have a key turning point, 3 years in advance. I know you have been persecuted for your discovery rather than hailed as the discoverer of a new dimension in global social-political science. We should all be writing to Trump and the Nobel Prize Committee to listen to you. This is more than just about you. We have to wake up as a society before it’s too late.
Nikola Tesla’s last words lamented that he dedicated his life to accomplishment and was persecuted for it. They have done the same to you, and that has offended me deeply.
God bless you. You have been sent to teach society a new way of viewing the world.
Ralph
REPLY: Thank you. This frequency has picked up so many events to the day that it is remarkable. The Economic Confidence Model has worked countless times to the very day. There is certainly order hiding beneath the appearance of chaos. The vast majority will NEVER give me credit for anything during my lifetime. That is just the way it always works.
Yet, what you describe about Tesla’s treatment is on par with humanity. What I have discovered will only become widely accepted after I am gone, not before. They tried to kill me, but I survived. Giordano Bruno (1548 – February 17th, 1600) was burned alive for agreeing with Copernicus that the sun was at the center of the solar system, not Earth. It is dangerous to discover something that society does not want to hear. Gallileo was forced to confess and change his theories to avoid being burned alive like Bruno. My discovery in cyclical analysis has threatened the bankers and those who think they can manipulate society. For that reason alone, I have been persecuted and will never be recognized during my lifetime. That is how society works, and it refuses to learn or take just one step forward in knowing how things truly work.
Hypatia was a prominent female figure in philosophy, mathematics, astronomy, and mechanics in the 4th-century city of Alexandria. She was murdered in the year 415 AD by an angry mob who literally tore her to pieces before killing her. Even German philosopher Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz was also a logician, scientist, mathematician, mechanic, and physicist. He knew about the law, history, foreign affairs, and languages. Leibniz was a brilliant person. Before Newton did, he came up with mathematical analysis, worked on combinatorics and the foundations of mathematical logic, described the binary number system with the numbers 0 and 1 used by computers today, and made many other important discoveries that changed many fields. He was in a fight with Newton and was prejudiced because he was not English.
Leibniz’s last years were tough because George I, King of Great Britain, didn’t like him and thought he was nothing more than a court historian. The famous scientist was harassed and dragged into court dramas. He was also put under house arrest and was constantly being watched by a spy. Because he was out of favor in London, the Royal Society refused to even view it as appropriate to recognize his passing. Even in death, their hatred continued.
Numerous inventors who were ahead of their time have been ignored or even demonized during their lifetime. Their legacies remind us that recognition often hinges on societal context, not just ingenuity.
Throughout history, many inventors made groundbreaking contributions but received little recognition or even contempt during their lifetimes. Here’s a list of another 11 notable figures whose work was rejected until after their deaths:
1. Antonio Meucci (1808–1889)
Invention: Early telephone prototype (“teletrofono”).
Why Unrecognized: Lacked funds to patent his invention, leading Alexander Graham Bell to secure the patent first. Meucci died in poverty, and the U.S. Congress only acknowledged his contribution in 2002.
2. Hedy Lamarr (1914–2000)
Invention: Frequency-hopping spread spectrum (basis for Wi-Fi, GPS, Bluetooth).
Why Unrecognized: Known primarily as a Hollywood actress, her patent was classified during WWII and ignored until the 1960s. Recognition came decades later.
3. Charles Babbage (1791–1871)
Invention: Designed the first mechanical computer (Analytical Engine).
Why Unrecognized: His machines were never built in his lifetime due to technical and financial limitations. His ideas were later recognized as foundational to modern computing.
4. Garrett Morgan (1877–1963)
Inventions: Three-position traffic signal, smoke hood (early gas mask).
Why Unrecognized: Faced racial discrimination since he was black, and often hired white actors to demonstrate his inventions to gain acceptance.
5. Johann Philipp Reis (1834–1874)
Invention: Early “telephone” prototype (“Reis Telephone”).
Why Unrecognized: His device was dismissed as a novelty. Bell later patented a more practical version, overshadowing Reis’s work.
Why Unrecognized: His invention sparked worker riots (Luddites), forcing him to flee England. He died in obscurity in France.
7. Granville T. Woods (1856–1910)
Inventions: Railway telegraph, electric roller coaster, and 50+ patents.
Why Unrecognized: He was black, so racism in the U.S. led to his work being overshadowed by contemporaries like Edison, though he sold patents to major companies.
8. Philo Farnsworth (1906–1971)
Invention: Fully electronic television.
Why Unrecognized: RCA (led by David Sarnoff) stole his patents after a legal battle. Farnsworth died embittered, though later acknowledged as TV’s true inventor.
9. Elisha Gray (1835–1901)
Invention: Telephone prototype (filed a patent hours after Bell).
Why Unrecognized: Lost the patent battle to Bell despite evidence of parallel development.
10. Alan Turing (1912–1954)
Invention: Conceptualized modern computing and artificial intelligence.
Why Unrecognized: His WWII codebreaking work was classified, and he was persecuted for his sexuality. Recognition grew posthumously.
11. Gustave Whitehead (1874–1927)
Claim: Allegedly flew a powered aircraft before the Wright Brothers (1901).
Why Unrecognized: Evidence remains disputed, and the Wrights’ 1903 flight is widely credited.
