Zelensky to Press Slovak PM on Russian Oil Imports

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said he will raise the issue of Russian oil supplies to Europe during a meeting with Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico on Friday. Fico, who has been openly critical of Zelensky and recently met Russian President Vladimir Putin in China, is expected to arrive in the western Ukrainian city of Uzhgorod later in the day. The European Union banned most Russian oil imports after Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine in 2022. However, Slovakia and Hungary received exemptions to allow time to secure alternative supplies. This exemption has fueled tensions with Kyiv, which has long opposed the Druzhba pipeline carrying Russian oil to both countries. “America wants to seriously cut Russia’s income from energy exports — and that is the right path,” Zelensky said in a video address to an economic forum in Italy. “We will also discuss […]

Putin Vows to Target Western Troops if Sent to Ukraine

Russian President Vladimir Putin has warned that any Western forces deployed to Ukraine would be considered “legitimate targets” for Russia’s military. His comments came Friday at an economic forum in Vladivostok, a day after Kyiv’s allies announced plans to send troops as part of a potential peace agreement. On Thursday, 26 countries led by France and Britain pledged to join a “reassurance force” on land, at sea, and in the air to monitor any eventual peace deal. The war, which began in February 2022, has already claimed tens of thousands of lives, displaced millions, and devastated much of Ukraine’s east and south. “If some troops appear there, especially now during the fighting, we proceed from the premise that they will be legitimate targets,” Putin said, insisting that foreign deployments would not foster long-term peace. He also blamed Ukraine’s growing military […]

Western Allies Vow Troop Deployment to Ukraine After Ceasefire Deal

French President Emmanuel Macron announced that 26 Western allies have formally committed to deploying troops “by land, sea, or air” to Ukraine once a ceasefire deal is reached. The pledge followed a Paris summit of 35 countries dubbed the Coalition of the Willing. Macron accused Russia of deliberately stalling peace talks to gain more territory. Hopes for a Ukraine-Russia peace summit dimmed after Vladimir Putin met Donald Trump in Alaska last month. Trump has since spoken with Western allies and is expected to finalize US support soon, though he criticized EU states still purchasing Russian oil, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said. The EU aims to end Russian oil and gas imports by 2027, but Hungary and Slovakia remain among the bloc’s biggest buyers. While Washington has ruled out sending ground troops, Trump has hinted at possible air support, which could […]

Putin and Xi hail ‘unprecedented’ ties ahead of Beijing military parade

Vladimir Putin has described his relationship with Xi Jinping as being at an “unprecedented level” during talks in Beijing, just a day before China stages its largest-ever military parade. Calling Xi a “dear friend,” Putin underlined the closeness of their ties, while Chinese state media praised the partnership as exemplary. Russia is set to increase gas supplies to China, while Beijing will allow Russians visa-free travel for a year on a trial basis. The timing is significant. Xi is preparing to welcome North Korea’s Kim Jong Un in Beijing, where he, Putin, and Kim will appear side by side as tens of thousands of Chinese troops march through the capital to mark 80 years since Japan’s surrender in World War II. For Xi, it is a moment to showcase his influence, both as leader of the world’s second-largest economy and […]

EU Chief’s Plane Hit by Suspected Russian GPS Jamming in Bulgaria

A plane carrying European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen experienced GPS signal jamming while preparing to land in Bulgaria, with authorities suspecting Russian involvement, the European Commission confirmed on Monday. The incident occurred on Sunday as von der Leyen’s chartered flight approached Plovdiv International Airport. Despite the disruption, the aircraft landed safely using alternative navigation methods. Commission spokesperson Arianna Podesta told reporters: “We can indeed confirm that there was GPS jamming.” She added that Bulgarian authorities believe Moscow was behind the interference, although it is not yet clear whether von der Leyen’s plane was specifically targeted. Von der Leyen, 66, was in Bulgaria as part of a tour of seven EU countries located on the bloc’s eastern flank, where concerns over Russian hybrid threats remain high. The region has seen repeated cases of GPS jamming and spoofing in recent […]
