Russian President Vladimir Putin has given a vague and conditions for ceasefire
Russian President Vladimir Putin has given a vague and conditional response to US President Donald Trump’s ceasefire proposal, expressing support in principle while adding demands that all but ensure a deadlock. Officials in Kyiv hope his hesitation will reinforce their argument to American counterparts that the Kremlin has no real interest in ending the war. Ukrainians, who see Russia’s motives more clearly, believe Putin is not merely seeking territorial gains but is waging a war against Ukraine’s very existence as a sovereign state and nation. This grim reality renders any notion of a compromise peace meaningless, as there can...

Targets by Russia, Ukrainians in addition to foreign journalists
Russia has been targeting both Ukrainian and foreign journalists covering its full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Nearly 150 journalists have been victims of forced disappearances, shootings, executions, and hostage-taking since 24 February 2022. 13 journalists have been killed by Russian forces, while 18 remain arbitrarily detained by Russia, and 1 is still missing – Reporters Without Borders (RSF). North Korea’s participation in the war against Ukraine will have long-term consequences for the security of the Asia-Pacific region, as North Korea modernises its technologies and gains combat experience.

US-Russian Diplomacy
Vladimir Putin is assembling a heavyweight team with decades of experience in high-stakes negotiations to face off against US President Donald Trump’s representatives for a deal to end Russia’s war in Ukraine. They include Yuri Ushakov, his chief Kremlin foreign-policy adviser who has over 50 years of involvement in diplomacy, and his top spymaster, Sergei Naryshkin, who served with Putin in the Soviet KGB, according to people familiar with the situation. Kirill Dmitriev, a financier educated at Stanford and Harvard with ties to the Russian president’s own family, may play a key role as an unofficial back-channel with Trump’s...

Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant hit
“Last night, a Russian attack drone with a high-explosive warhead struck the shelter protecting the world from radiation at the destroyed 4th power unit of the Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant. This shelter was built by Ukraine together with other countries of Europe and the world, together with America – all those committed to real security for humanity. The only country in the world that attacks such sites, occupies nuclear power plants, and wages war without any regard for the consequences is today’s Russia. This is a terrorist threat to the entire world. The shelter at the Chornobyl NPP was...

Trump administration’s freeze of foreign assets
The Trump administration’s freeze of foreign funding has begun impacting an international effort to hold Russia responsible for alleged war crimes in Ukraine, according to numerous sources and a Ukrainian document seen by Reuters, halting dozens of jobs and tens of millions of dollars in aid. Ukraine has opened more than 140,000 war crime cases since Moscow’s full-scale invasion, which has killed tens of thousands, ravaged vast swathes of the country and left behind mental and physical scars from occupation. US-funded international initiatives such as the Atrocity Crimes Advisory Group for Ukraine (ACA) have provided expertise and oversight to...

Ukraine’s independent media, including small regional outlets, investigative websites, and online platforms, have been reeling since the USAID announcement, with some warning they may be just weeks away from staff cuts or a complete shutdown. The USAID shutdown has created an opportunity for Russian money to enter the Ukrainian media space, undermining Ukraine’s statehood, democratic values, and pro-Western...

North Korean ballistic missiles fired at Ukraine
North Korean ballistic missiles fired at Ukraine by Russian forces since late December have been far more precise than salvos of the weapons launched over the past year, senior Ukrainian sources told Reuters. Such improvements in North Korean missile capabilities have troubling implications for its potential to threaten South Korea, Japan and the US or sell upgraded weapons to “failed” states or armed...
