'We don't wear rose-tinted glasses': Kremlin on US Patriot license for Ukraine

Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov stated Russia has 'no illusion' about continued US military support for Ukraine following a license for Kyiv to manufacture Patriot missile interceptors. Peskov acknowledged the US supplies weapons but also noted a 'duality' in their position, with a desire to facilitate peace. He rejected US claims that escalation could end the war, warning it would prolong the conflict and necessitate a larger security buffer zone for Russia.

Google Grants DoD Access to AI for Classified Networks Following Anthropic's Refusal

Google has granted the U.S. Department of Defense access to its AI for classified networks, following similar deals with OpenAI and xAI. The agreement comes after Anthropic refused unrestricted Pentagon access over concerns about domestic mass surveillance and autonomous weapons, leading the DoD to label the company a 'supply-chain risk.' Anthropic is now suing the DoD, with a judge last month granting an injunction against the designation.
