TeaUkrainians have responded to the vigilance of their European allies with a display of fighting spirit. after European leaders sign €90bn loan – As we commented yesterday, “just enough” possess Vladimir Putin‘s forces are at bay but not enough to push them back – ukraine made an allegation Russian shadow-fleet oil tanker Far from Libya, 2,000 km from the battlefield.
Ukrainian drone also attacked Russian patrol vessel and an offshore drilling platform In the Caspian Sea, hundreds of kilometers away.
This intensification of the long-range war that Ukraine is waging in support of a ground war on its own territory is an appropriate response to both the hesitation of its allies and the four-hour monologue of confusion delivered by Mr. Putin on Friday.
And it’s also the perfect accompaniment to peace talks Held in Florida by Russian and United States negotiators with the support of representatives of Ukraine and Ukraine’s allies in the interested coalition.
Mr Putin did not stop his attacks on kindergartens and apartment blocks during the negotiations, so Ukrainians should not back down from their attacks on more legitimate targets.
However, it was said that there were high hopes for a breakthrough that would lead to a ceasefire Independent We have always believed that Mr. Putin has no real interest in peace and therefore we will only believe it if he finally agrees to realistic guarantees of Ukraine’s post-war security.
,The intelligence has always been that Putin wants moreAccording to mike quigleyA Democratic member of the House Intelligence Committee on Saturday.
In the meantime, Mr. Putin’s aggression should give the free nations of the world no choice but to continue supporting the Ukrainian people in their just struggle.
A British citizen who has personally acted on this moral imperative Aiden Aslin31, from Nottingham, an interview which we are publishing today. He fought the Kurdish Peshmerga because he felt they needed to do something about the rape and enslavement of Yazidi women by ISIS. He then offered to voluntarily serve in the Ukrainian military ahead of the 2022 Russian invasion. He was captured, tortured and released in a prisoner exchange before rejoining Ukrainian forces last year.
“I think Russia Can be beaten,” he explains Sam Kiely, our world affairs editor“I think we’ve got the means to destroy their economy, Obviously, it’s not going to happen overnight, At some point, it’s going to have to give,”
Of course, he has limited knowledge about the state of Russian morale, but he knows about the Ukrainians with whom he fights. “People in Russia are saying you should end it,” he says. “The grip is weakening. There are a number of things that show Russia is becoming increasingly unstable.”
He is right in saying that this war will end only when the Russian economy and the Russian people cannot sustain it. And there were signs during Mr Putin’s lengthy interview that Russian public opinion is not entirely supportive of him. Questions handed to him included, “When will you return the ‘normal Internet’?”, “Are you going to nominate yourself for president in 2030?” and “Stop price increases!”, which may be more of a comment than a question.
That’s why Ukraine’s European allies must do more – and this means, realistically, paying more – to force Mr Putin to the point where he is no longer interested in prolonging the conflict.
Mr Aslin finds solace for Ukraine in the examples of Afghanistan, the Soviet Union and even Napoleon. “On previous occasions throughout history,” he says, “the defender has, most of the time, won.” This time he will have to prove himself right.
