Three years ago Mistral was three researchers in Paris Today it's raising 3bn euros at a 20bn valuation it runs its own data centres near Paris and in Sweden and it ships sovereign AI to Airbus BMW and European banks Here's the catch Mistral has raised about 2,9bn euros in equity OpenAI has raised 180bn Anthropic over 70bn Sovereignty isn't a slogan it's a capital question and right now we're bringing a few billion to a fight measured in hundreds If Europe wants AI it controls on infrastructure it owns under its own law then backing Mistral isn't charity It's the price of not renting our digital future from Washington or Beijing

Can someone explain to me like i am dumb, that AI American private companies not publicly traded, are worth almost 1T, without revenue or assets to back it up? Are Europe's financial investment markets that fragmented, that we can't raise 100billion for Mistral, or are the Americans just king at exaggerating their valuations?

The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees. The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance. Access to all other Claude models is not affected. We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible. Read our full statement: anthropic.com/news/fable-myt…

The US has started banning Europeans from using their latest AI models. The EU needs sovereign models that compete, otherwise we will be cut off. Mistral is perfectly positioned to deliver, European governments must choose it, and help it thrive with less burdensome rules.

Fuck you Trump

La Russie de Putin a complètement polarisé notre population. Ils nous detruisent peu a peu de l’interieur sans meme avoir besoin de nous declarer la guerre.

Des têtes de cochon devant des mosquées, des poupées sexuelles flottant sur la Seine, des tags sur la statue de Charles de Gaulle : une fuite de documents du Kremlin détaille les multiples projets d'opérations russes de destabilisation de la France. lemonde.fr/pixels/article/20…

Open Letter To the President of the Russian Federation From the President of Ukraine When you came to power in Russia more than 26 years ago, many people in Ukraine viewed you positively. That is how it was. But that is now in the past. Now, the overwhelming majority of Ukrainians view it positively that our long-range drones paid a visit to the opening of your forum in St. Petersburg, covering a distance of more than 1,000 kilometers. As you know very well, that distance is not the limit of our capabilities.

Self-sufficient

Russia You will pay for that

For the first time since 2022, Putin's own Finance Ministry and central bank have told him the war is unaffordable. 😂 @business reports it today as the most serious internal split in Moscow since the invasion began. And the numbers say why. Defence and security eat about 40% of the federal budget. The deficit in the first four months of 2026 hit roughly 5.9 trillion rubles, the largest of the war, as oil and gas revenue fell about 45% year on year, squeezed by low prices and Ukrainian strikes idling export capacity. This is not collapse. Russia can still tax, borrow and print. But the cost curve has turned, and the men who count the money are the ones now saying no. The cheapest Western lever left is the one already working: keep the pressure on the oil.

🇫🇷🇬🇷🇺🇦 I’ll just leave this here: the French ambassador to Sweden, who was formerly second in command at the French Defence Procurement Agency of the Ministry of Armed Forces (@DGA), may have revealed that Ukraine will receive Mirage 2000-5s from Greece.

Russia convicted Andrey Kiyko of strangling women in a Saint Petersburg park. Multiple murders, a string of rapes, twenty-five years. In 2024, with seven years left on his sentence, the Defence Ministry handed him a contract and sent him to fight in Ukraine. He was wounded, placed in a rehab clinic, and walked out last autumn. The ministry only admitted he was missing this month, and Russian reporters say the escape was quietly buried. This is the army Moscow calls the world's second: it empties its cells of serial killers to throw at Ukraine, then loses them and hides it. The men it pardons don't vanish. They come home. 🏠

A photo. Just one. One that says everything about the horror, the cruelty, and the atrocities committed by Russia. They were only children. Could have been your children. They had names, dreams, families, lives ahead of them. And Russia took all of that from them.

Reports of several people injured, some seriously, following the impact of a Russian one-way attack drone tonight on a residential building in Galați, Eastern Romania.

One for all. 🫡❤️🇪🇺

Great news for the security of Ukraine and Europe, Sweden is preparing to announce the transfer of several JAS‑39 Gripen C/D fighter jets to Ukraine. At the same time, talks are starting for the future sale of the more advanced JAS‑39 E models, funded by an EU loan. 🇪🇺🇺🇦🇸🇪🇪🇺
