U.S. lashes back at Putin’s Victory Day speech

The US has officially responded to Russian President Vladimir Putin’s Victory Day speech, shutting down any suggestions the war in Ukraine was a result of increasing Western aggression

Millions around the world watched on closely as Russians celebrated the day the nation defeated Nazi Germany.

There were fears Putin would use his address in Moscow’s Red Square to order a national mobilisation, but the leader remained tight lipped about any future plans.

New signs Ukrainians sent to Russia against will

As the bloody war in Ukraine continues… the U.S. Pentagon says they have ‘seen indications that some Ukrainians are being moved to Russia against their will’

As we know, this comes as Russia’s Vladimir Putin tries to defend the war in Ukraine in his Victory Day speech.

Veronica Dudo has the latest from New York.

In Ukraine, Russia’s attacks continue with no mercy, with the southern port of Odesa hit by missile strikes.

There had been growing speculation Putin was pushing his armed forces to take enough control of the neighbouring country so that he could declare victory on May 9, but Russia has struggled to make any significant tactical gains.

Ticker News spoke with Idrees Ali who is a foreign policy correspondent covering the Pentagon, he says Russia’s justifications for the war in Ukraine are illogical.

Ali says President Biden is also focused on ensuring Vladimir Putin doesn’t resort to the use of chemical weapons.

Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky also delivered his own speech, promising his nationals they will triumph.

In Washington, there are reports Democratic lawmakers have agreed on a new $40 billion aid proposal, including a massive weapons package for the war-torn ally.

White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki called Putin’s speech a ‘revisionist history’.

Australia’s multimillion-dollar campaign to attract Hollywood productions to its shores appears to be paying off.

The allure of Australia lies not only in its picturesque locations but also in its competitive financial incentives.

The government offers generous rebates and tax breaks to international productions, making it an attractive proposition for filmmakers looking to maximise their budgets.

Despite the recent intake of Hollywood productions down under such as ‘The Fall Guy’ and ‘Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga’, Aussie independents are still finding the space to carve their own creative path.

Rob Fantozzi joined the program to discuss the latest in Hollywood, and showcased his own upcoming project – ‘Omerta‘. #featured

American home prices are rising at faster pace now than in the last 20-years.

A recent analysis reveals a jaw dropping surge in the cost of American homes.

Since the start of 2020, U.S. home prices have surged 47% easily outstripping the gains seen in recent decades.

On top of that, home price growth so far this decade is on the verge of surpassing all the growth seen in the 2000s.

Many experts believe this decade’s housing market frenzy was ignited by a perfect storm — the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic triggering an unprecedented rush among buyers.

Tom Hutchens, the Executive Vice President of Production at Angel Oak Mortgage Solutions joins Veronica Dudo to discuss.
