Maj. Gen. Antonio A. Aguto Jr., who led the Security Assistance Group-Ukraine until last year, first lost a tube of Secret-level maps detailing force positions on a train from Kyiv to Germany in April 2024; embassy staff recovered it untouched the next day. Weeks later on May 13, he consumed far more than the allowed two drinks—roughly two 500 ml bottles of strong Georgian chacha—during a dinner with Ukrainian counterparts, leading to three falls, a concussion, and slurred speech noted by witnesses at meetings with Secretary Blinken and others the next day. The March 12 inspector general report substantiated excess alcohol and incapacitation but found no compromise of materials or intoxication during meetings; it recommends Army discipline review amid questions on leadership in high-stakes missions.

Key Takeaway

A top U.S. general in charge of Ukraine aid stumbled through a chaotic night of heavy drinking in Kyiv, then showed up to key meetings with a visible forehead mark from his falls.

Nigerian striker Gift Orban, on loan at Hellas Verona from Hoffenheim, received a straight red card from referee Luca Pairetto for protesting a non-call during their 2-1 loss to Parma. Orban later posted on X that as a Black player in Italy, he feels treated differently and called for fairness on the pitch; Verona protested by skipping media duties. The incident followed Juventus' Pierre Kalulu's controversial second yellow for a dive the day before, with Serie A referee chief Gianluca Rocchi apologizing for that error but silent so far on Orban's case amid fan debates over inconsistency.

Key Takeaway

Just 11 minutes into the match, Gift Orban raised his arms in frustration toward the referee—and suddenly Verona were down to 10 men for nearly 80 grueling minutes.

U.S.-mediated peace talks between Ukraine and Russia have paused after the last round in Geneva on February 17-18, as the Trump administration redirects resources to the third-week war with Iran that began with U.S.-Israeli strikes on February 28. Washington informed allies of delays in arms deliveries to Ukraine, including air defense systems bought by European countries, due to Middle East needs—a move confirmed by Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov and EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas as a clear competition for U.S. weapons. Ukrainian President Zelenskyy accepts a U.S. proposal for talks next week but Russia rejects it, leaving Ukraine's defenses exposed while surging oil prices above $100 per barrel boost Moscow's war chest by billions.

Key Takeaway

European diplomats watched in frustration as U.S. attention shifted from Ukraine talks to the escalating conflict with Iran. One called it a disaster for both Europe and Kyiv.
