There are no significant changes in the east – for weeks, they last mainly positioning struggles in which Russians gradually repress Ukrainians, but without great strategic importance.
Losses are still huge, with estimates of about 1,000 killed and wounded daily.
Nevertheless, this pace of the fight has enabled the Russians to make progress in the southern part of the Jar’s class, which confirmed the Ukrainian military source of Deep State.
Also, the Russian army is progressing towards the Gazette – Kurahovo highway, as well as in several areas south of the cover. In the lower area, there are already struggles for the Pokrovsk – Constantine Highway, and there are indications that the Russians occupied a large newly family, although the official confirmation has not yet arrived.
Meanwhile, conflicts also flare in the co-curst area in Russia, where, according to the reports of the “New York Times” Ukrainian forces refuse attacks, and North Korean soldiers who support the Russians experience huge losses.
The civilian population continues to suffer – in the attack of Russian rockets to a residential building in the Ukrainian border town of Sumi were killed by four people.
While the war on the ground, Kremlin is running and an intense diplomatic-propaganda war. Putin allegedly presented a new ultimatum: Russia will not recognize the peace agreement if the President Volodimir Zelenic signed it on behalf of Ukraine. The Russian president repeats the claim that green is no longer a legitimate leader of Ukraine because his term of office expires in May 2024.
Putin states that he is not against Zellenic as a participant in negotiations, but insists that he does not have the status of an equal interlocutor.
“If he wants to participate, I will determine people who will guide those negotiations,” Russian president said, whom the international court is charged with war crimes, says “Jutarnji list”, News.
Putin also requested that Ukraine annull the decree of Zelenia to prohibit negotiations with Russia, but also that it cannot make a green, but president of the Ukrainian parliament.
This Ultimatum Ukraine finds unacceptable. Greenski replied that Putin “makes everything to extend the war” and to actually fear negotiation.
“There is an opportunity to achieve real peace, but Putin does everything to continue killing or receiving a break to prepare a new invasion,” said Greensky.
According to the analysis of the Institute for War Study (ISW) from Washington, Putin’s victory strategy relies on the belief that the West will leave Ukraine.
Putin’s intention is to introduce the American President Donald Trump in bilateral negotiations to exclude Ukraine and thus imposed a chemman a favorable negotiation framework.
ISW warns that this scenario would enable Russia to legitimate their propaganda about the “illegitimacy” of the Ukrainian government.
While the war lasts in Ukraine, internal political conflicts grow in this country. The Mayor of Kiev Vitali Klitschka instructed the sharp appeal to Zelenia, accusing the new chief of the City Military Administration Timur Tkachenko to exceed the powers and tries to destabilize local authorities.
“While you, as the Supreme Commander, focused on the war and the protection of Ukraine, people from your circle deal with political intrigues,” Klitsko said.
He claims that in Kiev “tries to impair the balance of power and destroy local self-government”, as well as that the new head of the military administration blocks the solution of key economic issues.
With rising political tensions, the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (Nabu) has launched an investigation against the Minister of Defense of Rustema Moderners for the decision not to extend the contract with the Director of the Defensive Procurement Agency (DPA), Marina Bezukov.
The DPA was formed in 2022. in response to corruption scandals in the Ministry of Defense, with the aim of increasing transparency in the procurement of weapons for the Ukrainian army. The Moderner explained the removal by claiming that the Agency deals with “political games” than by timely supply of the army.
“The purchase of weapons turned to Amazon,” the Moderner said, alluding that the transparency of the procurement became excessive in the conditions of the war crisis.
