Russia-Ukraine War

The French navy suspects the oil tanker is part of a shadow fleet carrying sanctioned Russian crude.

The Russian president says he will discuss the Ukraine peace deal with the envoys from Washington, with whom he last met in December.

Past negotiations failed due to ‘abnormal hatred’ between the leaders of Russia and Ukraine, said the U.S. president.

Sergei Lavrov also accused European nations of attempting to undermine the ongoing peace process.

‘Russia has prepared for a strike, a massive strike, and is waiting for the moment to carry it out,’ the Ukrainian president said.

Russia has bombarded Ukraine’s power grid, especially in winter, in a strategy Kyiv officials have previously labeled ‘weaponizing winter.’

Stockholm’s foreign minister also called for a ban on importing Russian fertilizer and exporting European luxury goods to the country.

On Jan. 6, the UK and France signed a letter of intent to send troops to Ukraine in the event a peace deal is reached.

Sen. Lindsey Graham has been working on a bipartisan bill to target nations still trading with Moscow for months.

The British prime minister and French president announced the move after a meeting of the ‘coalition of the willing’ in Paris.

The meeting of the ‘Coalition of the Willing’ was announced by French President Emmanuel Macron in his New Year’s Eve address.

Ukraine is reshaping its defense and intelligence leadership and operations as U.S.-backed peace efforts and pressure from Russia continue.

The alleged attack happened during ongoing negotiations between Moscow and Kyiv to end the conflict, which is heading into its fifth year next month.

The previous chief of staff quit in November amid a corruption probe. The Ukrainian president also named a new defense minister.

Kyiv and European leaders have dismissed Moscow’s claim, accusing Russia of spreading falsehoods to derail U.S.-led peace talks.

The Ukrainian leader said he is committed to ending war with Russia on firm terms, amid continuing negotiations and attacks.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy accused Russia of trying to undermine progress in peace talks.

The warning comes as Russia has alleged there was a drone attack against Putin’s residence and deployed nuclear-capable hypersonic missiles near NATO borders.

Chief of the General Staff Valery Gerasimov made the announcement as Russia seeks to assert battleground superiority amid ongoing peace negotiations.

The Ukrainian president said in a WhatsApp message to media that a U.S. military presence in the country would be a major factor in a U.S. security guarantee.
