<p> <img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1Cmydp" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1Cmydp.jpg"/> </p> <p> Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has cautioned global leaders against remaining indifferent following a Russian air raid that struck his hometown of Kryvyi Rih, resulting in 18 fatalities. </p> <p> In his nighttime video message on Saturday, Zelensky stated that this strike represents one of the most tragic episodes for Kryvyi Rih, </p> <p> On Saturday morning, the president provided further information regarding the nine children who lost their lives due to the attack. Among those who died were 3-year-old Tymofij, 7-year-old Arina, and 9-year-old Herman, as stated by Zelensky on X. </p> <p> Nine individuals also lost their lives when a Russian ballistic missile struck the southeastern city of Kryvyi Rih, succeeded by a drone assault, according to Zelensky. </p> <p> Zelensky stated that the attack struck a regular street within a residential neighborhood containing a playground, stores, and a restaurant. According to him, 62 individuals were wounded, among them 12 children, and several remain in serious condition. </p> <p> The President of Ukraine expressed gratitude to foreign ministers and embassies for their expressions of sympathy following Friday’s attack. Nevertheless, he mentioned that the reaction from the US embassy was “unexpectedly disheartening.” </p> <p> "They are even afraid to say the word 'Russian' when talking about the missile that killed children," Zelensky wrote. </p> <p> On a post on X, the U.S. ambassador to Kyiv, Bridget Brink, conveyed her shock over the incident where "a ballistic missile hit close to a playground and restaurant in Kryvyi Rih." </p> <p> “Remaining quiet about the reality that Russia is murdering children using ballistic missiles is both incorrect and perilous,” Zelensky stated in his video message. “This merely encourages the vile individuals in Moscow to perpetuate the conflict and persistently dismiss diplomatic efforts.” </p> <p> Moscow has acknowledged the assault but referred to it as a " precision strike" that targeted Ukrainian leaders and their Western advisors. The Ukrainian General Staff in Kyiv countered this assertion via a Telegram message, labeling Russia’s statement as false. </p> <p> Photos of the attack site released by Ukraine did not indicate any presence of military objectives. </p>

US Soldiers' Search Continues: Submerged Vehicle Spurs Investigation in Lithuania

<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1BNkXG" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1BNkXG.jpg"/> <p> Search operations persisted into Thursday for the four absent U.S. troops close to the Belarus frontier in Lithuania following the discovery of their submerged vehicle one day prior. </p> <p> The M88 Hercules armored vehicle was found submerged over five meters deep. Afterward, sufficient water was pumped out to allow excavation work to commence, as stated by Lithuania’s Defense Minister Dovilė Šakalienė. </p> <p> She stated that "every scenario remains plausible" concerning the soldiers' situation, since it had not been verified if they were still within the vehicle. </p> <p> The Lithuanian national broadcasting company, LRT, reported that four U.S. servicemen along with their vehicle went missing on Tuesday afternoon during an exercise at the General Silvestras Žukauskas training area in Pabradė, a town situated less than 10 kilometers from the Belarus frontier. </p> <img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/video/AA1BNwLH" data-reference="video"/> <p> Šakalienė stated that rescue operations persisted through the night, involving water extraction and stabilization of the terrain to allow heavy machinery to reach the area safely without compromising a neighboring gas line. </p> <div class="c-widget-related"> <div class="c-widget-related__title"> <b class="c-widget-related__title__text"> Related </b> </div> <ul class="c-widget-related__list"> <li class="c-widget-related__item"> <a class="c-widget-related__article" href="https://www.euronews.com/my-europe/2025/03/27/coalition-of-the-willing-meets-in-paris-to-strengthen-support-for-ukraine"> French President Macron unveils plans for an 'assurance force' in Ukraine. </a> </li> </ul> </div> <p> Lithuanian authorities characterize the search and rescue mission as extremely intricate, involving "hundreds of individuals," such as Lithuanian and U.S. service members, multiple governmental organizations, and private enterprises. </p> <p> The US Ambassador to Lithuania, Kara McDonald, stated, "We will continue our efforts until our service members are located," and expressed gratitude to the Lithuanian government and officials for their assistance in the search operation. </p> <p> "Lithuania serves as an exemplary ally, and we are immensely thankful for their assistance," she stated. </p> <p> Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia, which gained their independence from the Soviet Union in 1990 and subsequently became part of NATO, frequently experience strained relationships with both Russia and Belarus. </p> <p> Tensions escalated even more after Russia initiated a large-scale assault on Ukraine in 2022, with Lithuanian President Gitanas Nausėda emerging as one of the strongest voices among European leaders advocating for Ukraine’s fight against Russian troops. </p>

Ukrainian and U.S. Officials Meet Productively with Saudis on Ceasefire Talks in Riyadh

<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1Bw5kv" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1Bw5kv.jpg"/> <p> Ukrainian Defence Minister Rustem Umerov reported on Sunday that discussions between American and Ukrainian representatives in Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia, had been both "fruitful and concentrated," tackling crucial topics such as energy among others. </p> <p> In a social media post on platform X, Umerov, who headed the Ukrainian delegation, highlighted that President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s objective is to achieve “a fair and enduring peace” for both Ukraine and Europe as a whole, stating, “Our efforts aim to turn this vision into reality.” </p> <p> According to the Ukrinform news agency, the Ukrainian delegation comprised State Secretary at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Oleksandr Karasevych, First Deputy Head of the Presidential Administration Pavlo Palisa, and his counterpart Ihor Zhovkva, along with Deputy Minister for Energy Mykola Kolisnyk. </p> <p> Palisa verified on the same day that they would not be meeting with the Russian delegation in Riyadh. </p> <p> During a video message on Sunday night, Zelenskyy stated that the discussions between U.S. and Ukrainian representatives earlier that day had been "highly fruitful." He further urged all involved parties to keep up the pressure on Russia with the aim of securing an actual ceasefire from their side. </p> <p> The discussions occurred nearly two weeks following an earlier meeting between both parties in Jeddahl, a port city in Saudi Arabia. During this session, Kyiv consented to a one-month truce suggested by Washington, contingent upon the United States resuming its supply of military assistance and intelligence sharing with Ukraine. </p> <img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/video/AA1BxN7k" data-reference="video"/> <p> Significantly, the discussion occurs before the negotiations between the American and Russian teams, set for Monday. </p> <p> According to a Russian presidential aide, the Kremlin’s team comprises Grigory Karasin, who chairs the committee on international affairs in Russia's upper house, as well as Sergey Beseda, an advisor to the chief of Russia's Federal Security Service. </p> <p> The discussions take place only a few days following Zelenskyy accusing his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, of obstructing cease-fire attempts while still behaving like an "aggressor." Even though both leaders concurred with the idea of implementing a restricted truce, Russia has continued its assault on Ukraine without stopping; instead, their attacks have become more intense. </p> <p> On Friday, during an EU summit held in Brussels, there was renewed emphasis on strengthening Europe’s defenses. The leaders from the European Union concurred that all 27 member states should have full self-defense capabilities against potential aggression from Russia by the year 2030. </p> <p> Special Envoy Steve Witkoff is heading the US delegation in Saudi Arabia. In discussions with American media, Witkoff expressed his skepticism about the concerns that Putin aimed to seize additional territories in Europe. </p> <p> “I simply do not believe that his intention is to conquer all of Europe. The circumstances today are quite distinct from those during World War I and World War II, primarily because back then there wasn’t a NATO,” he stated. </p> <p> I believe Putin based on what he says here. I feel like the Europeans are starting to adopt this view as well. However, it’s not really significant. It's more of a theoretical point. </p> <p> He added that his sole focus is to implement "his boss" US President Donald Trump's agenda and bring an end to the conflict. </p> <p> Trump said on Saturday that efforts to stop further escalation between Russia and Ukraine were “somewhat under control”. He also stated that he hopes the Riyadh talks offer a breakthrough to finally bring Russia's war, now in its fourth year, to a close. </p>

It's all political theatre. </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> 'Starmer got ahead of himself with talk of boots on the ground before he knew what he was talking about, which is why we hear less about it now and more about jets and vessels which are easier to do and don't need basing in Ukraine.' </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> Another said there was 'no military sense' in the plans due to the disparity between any joint European cohort and both the Russian and Ukrainian troop numbers. </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> 'There are about 700,000 Russians in and around Ukraine and over a million Ukrainians under arms,' they said. </p> <img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1Bxe7u" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1Bxe7u.jpg"/> <img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1Bxe7w" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1Bxe7w.jpg"/> <img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1Bxsg6" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1Bxsg6.jpg"/> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> 'What is a 10,000-international force based in the west of the country over 400km from the front line meant to do? </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> It can't even defend itself. What is its objective? What justifies its existence? What are the guidelines for action? How is it directed, supported, and accommodated? For how long is it present and what is the reason? Nobody has answers. </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> The former Conservative Defence Secretary, Ben Wallace, criticized the vague talk within coalitions lacking real commitment, indicating that the recent discussions were mostly about public relations rather than substantial content. </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> The officials from Downing Street have stated that military planners will convene later this week to deliberate on the 'specifics and framework of any potential future forces.' </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> Starmer’s ‘coalition of the willing’ pertains to a collection of nations ready to implement any accord by deploying troops to serve as peacekeepers. </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> Led by the UK and France, the initiative could see troops from several nations deployed to Ukraine to act as a buffer to any future Russian aggression following a hypothetical peace deal. </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> Spain, Turkey, Finland, the Czech Republic and the Baltic states - Estonia, Lithuania and Latvia - are all likely to be involved, according to reports. </p> <img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1Bxe7E" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1Bxe7E.jpg"/> <img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1BxlbV" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1BxlbV.jpg"/> <img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1BxnQY" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1BxnQY.jpg"/> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> Canada and Australia are seen as the two most likely countries from outside Europe to support the plans. </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> But the plans appear to be opposed by the US, with President Donald Trump's special envoy dismissing the plans as a 'posture and a pose'. </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> In an interview this weekend, Steve Witkoff said the idea was based on a 'simplistic' notion of the UK prime minister and other European leaders thinking 'we have all got to be like Winston Churchill'. </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> He told journalist Tucker Carlson: 'Russians are going to march across Europe. That is preposterous by the way. We have something called Nato that we did not have in World War Two.' </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> Chief of the Defence Staff Admiral Sir Tony Radakin, who will host French officials today at the Ministry of Defence, dismissed criticism of the Ukraine military planning as 'nonsense'. </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> He said: 'Anyone who isn't aware just how serious the discussions underway by chiefs of defence and chiefs of operations from 30 countries is simply proving they are too junior or too out of the loop to know what they are talking about. </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> 'The process underway, led by Prime Minister Keir Starmer and President Macron , is preparing Europe and Ukraine for whatever comes next, and while providing a running commentary on the potential options would be unhelpful to the planning and detrimental to potential peace, no one should be in any doubt that this work is critical and substantial.' </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> Ministry of Defence sources also stressed that momentum was building up behind the proposed coalition, with leaders 'prepared to step up to secure a peace'. </p> <img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1BxHuA" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1BxHuA.jpg"/> <img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1BxMgA" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1BxMgA.jpg"/> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> They also insisted Starmer was 'leading from the front' on the issue and that he is commanding 'respect' for his approach. </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> Earlier today the US and Russia began talks in Saudi Arabia aimed at making progress towards a broad ceasefire in Ukraine . </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> Kremlin spokesman played down hopes of a deal being reached in the coming weeks, saying that the parties were 'only at the beginning of this path' to peace. </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> American officials have already spoken to their Ukrainian counterparts, with the initial aim being a maritime ceasefire in the Black Sea to allow the free flow of shipping. </p> <p class="mol-para-with-font"> The fighting has still continued to rage inside Ukraine, however, with the country's air force saying it shot down 57 drones out of 99 launched by Russia overnight, with another 36 failing to reach their target. </p> Read more

Visszalépés a kurshiakból: Ukrán katonaik megosztják titkos információikat

<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1B5mKo" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1B5mKo.jpg"/> <p> Kurszk közelében vívtak "szörnyülcsész filmbeillő" cselekményektől származó jelentéseket bekövetkeztettek az ukrán katonaiban. BBC -nek. Az ukrán utazási korlátozások miatti nem sikerült előtérre jutnom, ezért nehéz pontos vagy teljes képet megkapni a helyzetről. Ukrán katonaival együttműködve a társadalmi médiumon keresztül hallható véleményük szerint csapatuk összeomlott állapotban van, ahogy azt munkatársaik jeleznek. kénytelen voltak feladni Szudzsát <br/> , amelyikük a legrégebbi és legszárazabb területeken találhatók, az ősi városukat tartják beállítva. Ez egyike annak a körzetnek, ahol gyakran fordul elő, hogy néhány olyan nagyvonalú infrastruktúra épült vagy javított fel, mint például hidak vagy útpolconok, melyek segítenek biztosabban megvédeni ezeket a helyszínöket az időbeli változtatóktól. Azonban nem voltunk még ezen a téren többebben aktív résztvevőként álltak szemben vele. <br/> A fenti szöveget jobban össze tudom ejteni a kérdésed iránti érdeklődéseddel? Ha valami konkrét információval szeretnél rendbe tenni, akkor pontosabban írd le azt! </p> <p> Az egyik személy március 9-én megjegyezte, hogy továbbra már este van az állapotban. Szudzsában van A helyen, ahol a front felbukkanhatott, és mindannyian panikaértéltenek. Volodimir szerint az Ukrán erősítéseknek próbálnak hátrakanyargató módon meneken, bár az Orosz repülőgép támadásaival szemben csak este tudnak haladjak. Csapatokat és berendezéseket csak egy adód után lehettek mozdíthatja Szudzsan és Ukrajniai Szumin közt. Ezután annyiban volt biztosabb járni akkor, mint ma; Március eleje óta pedig mindenütt ott voltak orosznak gépei, ahogy a hadművelet jelenteni teszi: más-mas pillanatra kétszetes vagyunk négy-negyes gondolatakkal. "Mindenkit arra emlékeztetheti, hogy ez az alagút valószínűleg törli lennévelük célja, de a vezérparancsolói úgy tetszik nem látják így" - beszélt ki. </p> <p> Egy másik hadműveleti irányító, Makszim március 11-én leírta, hogyan próbálkoztak vereségbe fulladt rákövetkező ütközetekkel megelázni az oroszok támadásait a visszavonulása siebajainak közben. Sokkal korábban, már Szudzsában jelentős egységeket gyűjtötték össze az oroszákok. Különös figyelemmel kell tekinteni ennek a hatalmas létszámnak: a kihívást maga Oroszország egyike volt, melyet felidézte képesre válni legalább 70 ezer emberrel - beleértve a puszta számbeli elemüket is -, és ezek között kevesebb mint 12 ezer dél-koreaiek jutalmazták velünk. Ezen túlmenően, amit a BBC-ben említenek anélkül, hogy valójában részt vehette volna benne, az orosz tüzérség tagjairól szórakoztatónak találnivalunk, ahogy a pusztítós eszközök romjai oda-vissza repültek az utakra, miattuk rostlan helyzeti zavarba került sor. </p> <p> Az ügyet Anton, aki napkeleti irányba haladt Szudzsából kilépve, egyiptomi hadifogság vezérőrnagyának katasztrofálisan találnia jelentette. Emelte ki az orosz FPV-s repülőszerződések által okozott sérelmektől keletkező szenvedéseket. "Régebbiben javasoltuk a drónok felett, de ez most ala van" - mondogatta. Továbbá felhívta figyelmüket arra, hogy Oroszország pontosabbnak bizonyult lendva és több emberes erővel indulna be. Az ilyen változást Anton tekintettel visszaszingést láthatott abban a vonatkozásban is, amit választanak helyrehozó meneteikkel kapcsolatosan. "Leomlik a logisztika; fegyvereinkről, lövést eszközökkről, étrend vagy vízből sincsenek leküzdtethetünk." - mondta Anton, akinek este járatot adtak Szudzsáról. “Számtalan alkalomban csak nyers veszteségbe kerültünk a drónok hatására,” - adva hozzá a harcos, akit úgy nézi, mint azt semmi joga nincs ott maradni Kurszon bolyongva.” </p> <p> Nyugat-i experts értékeléseit megvédve, az Ucránia-offensíva során kb. 12 ezer háborúskaosztály tagja vett részt, akiket a legnagyobb türelmetlenlennel szelektíven választottak ki, majd felraktak Nyugat-ban gyári útra eszközökkel, támadóhajósokkal és panszáros járművel rendelkező egységekkel. </p> <p> Március 11-12-án egy négyedik katona leírt a frontról visszavonulást "szörnyfilmszerűen". Ő beszélte: “A úton számtalan megsérült vagy romlottságos autó, panszsziroványgép és hajói felszereltség látogatható.” Többen voltak sebséges vagy haltak közöttük. Olyan messze érkeztek, hogy orosz támadókdrónjai már felvillantozhatnak rajtatok -mondta Dmitro-, akit csak nehezen tudtak menekülni. Helyzetük még bonyolultabb lett, mert a gépkocsijuk letapost, miközben próbálták kiemelni belőle. Ekkor egy FPV drón kezdett rávilloggatni, ami semmilyen hatással nem merült bele a járművébe, viszont egyetlen tagot is megsebészt, miért ott kellett fenntartkozik üldögélniük aerdőn két óráig, addig igyekszünk segíteni nektek. </p> <p> Dmitro arról számolt be, hogy sok ukrajnai pattya hadifutást követett vissza, "az emberek akár 15-20 km-t sebtettek". Az állapot alapján "nehezen súlyosra, majd katasztrofálisnak" váltott. március 14-én küldött üzeneteiben megírtatta: "Az oszkát-kursziós térségben minden véget ért... az operáció nem nyert el." </p> <p> Egy ötödik katona kevesebb aggodalmassal szólt arról a helyzetáról. Marcius 13-án Artem egy katonai kórházban lévén elküldött egy üzenetet, amely alapján egy drónbombavégrehajtási ideje alatt megkapcsolták. Az üzeneten felvételezése szerint Artem elmondta, hogy nehezebben vívtál alkotni abban a területen - pontosabban Locsnyai település mellett, ahol az ukrajnok csapatok erős ellenvédelmet mutattak és "orcákként" vegyültek hozzájuk. Ezt a hadművetlemet Artem sikerességeképp vélekedte. </p> <p> Wichtig ergebnis ist, dass die ukrainische Streitmacht diese Zone geschaffen und bislang aufrechterhalten hat. Dank ihr konnten die Russen nicht nach Sumi vorstoßen – teilte er mit. </p> <p> A katonai elemzők szerint az utolsó hetven nap során csak egy harmada vagy annál kevesebbet tudtak megőrizni a szeptemberben szereztek meg a kilencszáz négyzetkilométernyi területből. Ezért nincs alapotlanul optimista álláspontuk arról, hogy Ukrajna képes lenne cserélgetni ezen területeken a tápanyagtípusokat maga irányába. Ekkor múlt héten Zelenszkij állította, hogy a Kurszik eredményesen végezte a feladatait, hiszen rá kellett indítania Oroszországnak olyan egységeket élesíteni, amelyek korábban keletrőli fronton küzdöttek. Azonban jelenleg még semmi bizonyosság sincs róla, mennyire követeli ennek természetét Ukrajna, ahogyan a BBC jelzi. </p> <p> Egy éve látogatták el újra azon a térségén, ahol az orosz-ukrán konfliktus járta le forgalmának felfüggesztést nyári hónapok alatt. Ez arra utal, hogy még Oroszországnál sincs elégedettek ezzel a fejlődéssel. Az Ukraina pozíciója jól láthatóvé vált ennek az eseménynek köszönhetően. villámoffenzívát indított Az orosz határon túli területeken, beleértve az ukrán katonák által elfoglalt területekét és városait is, az Orosz Szocialista Federatív Köztársaság Kurszk régiójába kerülték be. Ez egy példátlan döbbenetes veszteség volt Vladimir Putin vezérőrnagy szabályozásának nézőköre számára, mivel ez a második világháborút követően először idejogú állam hódította meg anélkül, hogy saját magáról indult volna hadművelet. </p> <p> A csökkenő területnél sikerük volt megőrizni a többszörös bizonytalanságnál jobban az irányítást hetven napig, mégakkor észak-koreai katonákkal megtámogatva is próbálták visszafoglalni Az orosz csapatok. Azonban az increasingly bonyitosukorai ukrán támadási vonal, a lemerültenekedett seregeink és a másik oldalon azt is befolyásolja. észak-koreai csapaterősítések Megnyalták azt az eredményt Moszkvának.

Zelenskyy Warns: Putin Gathers Troops at Border

<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1B1xzk" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1B1xzk.jpg"/> <p> <strong> The Ukrainian President, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, has cautioned that Vladimir Putin is amassing a significant force of soldiers along the frontier, readying them for a possible incursion into the Sumy region, which is situated in northeast Ukraine. </strong> </p> <p> <strong> Zelenskyy </strong> Additionally, they refuted statements from the Russian president claiming that Ukrainian troops in the Kursk area had been encircled. </p> <p> Although a 30-day truce suggestion has been presented, <strong> Putin </strong> is yet to formally endorse the initiative and maintains that a lasting peace deal needs to be secured. </p> <p> Towards the close of last year, Russia was bolstered militarily by North Korea, which dispatched approximately 12,000 soldiers to aid its ally.

UK and France Send Troops to Ukraine to Confront Putin: "We Must Halt His War Machine"

<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1B1cST" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1B1cST.jpg"/> <p> The 'volunteer alliance' is set to convene a gathering with senior military officers. </p> <p> The <i> <strong> volunteer coalition </strong> </i> will kick off <strong> next Thursday </strong> In London, a gathering of senior military officers from the involved nations will commence to coordinate the technical details of dispatching peacekeeping troops to Ukraine. </p> <p> Theoretically, the purpose of these forces is to protect the upcoming truce between Russia and Ukraine. Practically, <strong> Their objective will be to defend Ukraine. </strong> It will be akin to the approximately 24,000 American troops deployed in South Korea following the armistice established in 1953 between that nation and North Korea. </p> <p> Hence, there will likely be, at minimum on an official level, a threat that the volunteer coalition—a phrase somewhat laden with irony—created by the U.S. in 2003 to describe the nations joining them in invading Iraq, might face attacks or need to protect Ukraine. </p> <p> Organizing all of this is not going to be simple. Furthermore, it appears fated to become the <strong> First purely European military operation, receiving no backing from the U.S. </strong> Since World War II, unless the Trump administration alters its position, Washington will refrain from offering aerial protection, logistics assistance, or intelligence to European forces. This might also encompass troops from Australia and New Zealand, though the full roster of participating nations remains unclear. </p> <p> The gathering of military officers scheduled for next Thursday represents the key outcome from the virtual conference conducted yesterday as per the request of UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer. This event involved representatives from 28 nations, surpassing the attendance seen during the meeting in London back in March which included fewer participants. During this upcoming assembly, <strong> Starmer failed to convince Japan to participate. </strong> . </p> <p> The remarks made yesterday by Starmer were intended to apply pressure on Vladimir Putin. <strong> encourage the alliance to act </strong> The Prime Minister initiated the summit by saying, “In my view, Putin will eventually join the negotiation process, yet – and this is a crucial ‘yet’ for our discussion here – we should not simply idle awaiting his participation.” Furthermore, he emphasized that the current moment calls for exerting intense pressure on Russia so as to keep up with sanctions aimed at diminishing Putin’s military capabilities and compelling him to engage in talks. </p> <p> Similarly, French President Emmanuel Macron said in an interview yesterday evening that both Europe and the United States should apply firm “pressure” on Russia to agree to a truce since “it doesn’t appear they truly desire peace.” </p> <p> Starmer characterized yesterday’s summit as an advancement toward the strategy aimed at ensuring Ukraine’s survival—a concept that Donald Trump cast doubt upon earlier this week—moving into its “operational phase,” where “advancements will be made in formulating concrete strategies on how our military forces can contribute to securing Ukraine’s future safety.” Nonetheless, the truth is that the <strong> Key elements of the operation remain unspecified. </strong> . </p> <p> The most obvious is <strong> who will participate </strong> At present, only two nations possess <strong> clearly verified the dispatch of troops to Ukraine, as well as to the UK and France </strong> Indeed, this week, the UK's Defence Secretary, John Healey, and the Chief of the Defense Staff, Tony Radakin, traveled to France to initiate plans for the operation. Additionally, <strong> Australia indicated yesterday its willingness </strong> If Australia, situated diametrically opposed to Europe geographically, decides to pitch in with military support while NATO nations remain inactive, it could dealt as a significant setback for the vision of unified action among European states that is being aimed at. </p> <p> However, this reflects the current situation. According to an announcement made by the office of Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, “Italy has no plans for participating in any potential military operation in Ukraine.” The country rejects deploying troops unless authorized by a UN resolution. This stance positions Rome as potentially the initial departure within the alliance, though Meloni’s declaration leaves room for altering their position later on. Indeed, the Italian leader employs ambivalence, embracing transatlantic ties even as she aims to maintain strong personal relationships with figures like Donald Trump and Elon Musk. </p> <p> Actually, the uncertainty isn’t unique to Meloni. <strong> The identities of the countries that will dispatch their military commanders remain undisclosed. </strong> to London on Thursday, nor, clearly, the allocation of roles, the hierarchy of commands, or the supply networks of the peacekeeping forces. For instance, training Ukrainian troops in Lviv, which is about 1,000 kilometers away from the frontline, differs significantly from conducting such training at potential demarcation lines in Donbas. </p> <p> In principle, <strong> The UK and France are anticipated to essentially assume a leadership position. </strong> , not just because of the political stance of their governments but also due to their armed forces being significantly more capable than others within Europe,. <strong> have recent combat experience </strong> And everything hinges on Germany's choice. </p> <p> Yesterday's virtual meeting <strong> stalled </strong> on an important point: the <strong> the use of the 300 billion euros seized by the Russian government </strong> In the nations that took part in the summit aimed at funding the acquisition of weaponry for Ukraine, the interest accrued from those funds has so far been utilized just two times — first by the European Union and subsequently by the United Kingdom. London advocates for using the original sum, whereas Paris and Berlin stand against this idea. Keir Starmer’s “operational phase” remains a work-in-progress with considerable distance yet to cover. </p> <p> Don't overlook all of our updates and information here. www.mundoamerica.com . </p>

Rubio Outlines Two Strategies to End Russia-Ukraine Conflict

<p> <img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1B2sdx" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1B2sdx.jpg"/> </p> <p> The problem of concluding the war in Ukraine involves two plans: Plan A and Plan B. It is not possible to move forward with the second plan until the first one is addressed, according to CBS News quoting US Secretary of State Marco Rubio. </p> <p> "Under plan A, our primary objective is to halt the fighting so we can proceed to plan B, specifically stage two, where all parties involved will be seated around a table—possibly utilizing shuttle diplomacy—to devise a lasting solution that brings an eternal end to this conflict. This resolution should honor everyone’s interests and requirements. It goes without saying that achieving these goals won’t be simple; however, advancing beyond the initial step is necessary before tackling what comes next," explained Rubio. </p> <p> He pointed out that nobody has claimed the second phase would be simple. Nevertheless, advancing with it cannot happen before finishing the initial stage. The Secretary of State highlighted how challenging it is to broker a robust conclusion to the conflict as long as both parties continue firing upon each another. This explains why U.S. President Donald Trump advocates for an immediate truce. </p> <p> "We’re focusing on this task with the hope that we can accomplish it. Achieving this won’t be straightforward,” he explained. “Once completed, we’ll proceed to the next stage: negotiations for a lasting and stable agreement. This part will also pose significant challenges. Both parties must put in substantial effort and make considerable compromises, yet it’s necessary. This conflict needs to stop. The president has made his position very clear on ending it, and he’s exerting all possible efforts towards achieving that goal.” </p> <p> The host additionally brought up Rubio’s comments regarding the encounter between Trump's special envoy, Steve Witkoff, and Russian President Vladimir Putin. This meeting aimed at determining if both parties were progressing towards a truce or if Russia was merely employing delaying tactics. The journalist then referenced the previous day's discussion between the Secretary of State and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov. Upon being questioned about whether Russia was postponing talks and his thoughts on Witkowf's meeting, he answered accordingly. </p> <p> "The meeting was quite encouraging. As I’ve mentioned multiple times, we won’t be discussing this in the open. We hope to make an announcement shortly. While I cannot ensure this will happen, I do believe the discussion today was indeed positive and fruitful," stated the Secretary of State. </p> <p> He stated that he did not form a negative opinion from Witkoff's meeting with Putin but also acknowledged the difficulties, as the war in Ukraine has many facets. </p> <p> "Some difficulties exist. This is an intricate conflict lasting for three years on a lengthy battlefield, filled with numerous complexities. Therefore, nobody claims that it will be simple," Rubio further explained. </p> <p> It has come to light through The Independent that Ukraine has set certain conditions for reaching any peace deal with Russia’s leader, Vladimir Putin. Territorial concerns remain at the forefront of these conditions. To learn more about this situation, refer to RBC-Ukraine's report. </p>

Ukraine Honors Third Anniversary of Bucha's Liberation From Russian Control

Residents, relatives, friends and colleagues of the fallen soldiers gathered there. They laid flowers at the graves and lit candles. </p> <p> Mykola Kalashnyk, who leads Kyiv’s Regional Military Administration, attended the event and spoke to those present, highlighting Russia’s horrific acts. Within just 33 days of occupation, 561 individuals lost their lives. </p> <p> Russian forces rapidly took control of Bucha soon after beginning their comprehensive assault on Ukraine in February 2022, maintaining their presence there for roughly four weeks. </p> <p> When Ukrainian forces reclaimed the town, they discovered what was later referred to as the heart of the conflict's horrors. </p> <p> Civilians' mass graves were found, and numerous war crimes were recorded following its recapture in March 2022. </p> <p> This year’s memorial event was clouded by political events, as numerous Ukrainians voiced their discontent over the progress of ceasefire talks with Russia. </p> <p> The Ukrainian government and military experts suggest that Russian troops are gearing up for another major assault in the upcoming weeks to increase the strain on Kyiv and bolster the Kremlin’s stance in the truce discussions. </p> <p> The Ukrainian President, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, has charged Russia with extending the negotiations for a truce as an attempt to gain additional time and capture more of Ukraine’s land. </p> <p> A single soldier attending the memorial in Bucha firmly opposed making any concessions during talks with Russia. </p> <p> "The losses were immense; I lost numerous comrades and fighters. What exactly did we fight for? Was it to cede these lands? Our constitution clearly states that this land belongs to us," stated soldier Ihor Lvutin. </p> <p> Aren’t we meant to violate our constitution? To hand everything over to the adversary? That’s why I refuse. Absolutely not. </p>
