The pen is mightier than the sword - A picture is worth a thousand words
“He’s been told by China and India not to use nuclear weapons.”
Whenever Russia is worried about the trajectory of the war they “start talking about nuclear weapons,” says Pulitzer Prize winning historian Anne Applebaum.

Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has again urged allies to allow his country to use Western weapons to attack deep inside Russia.
On Friday Zelenskyy spoke at Ramstein air base in Germany where representatives from some 50 countries had gathered for talks hosted by US defense secretary, Lloyd Austin. Zelenskyy later met German Chancellor Olaf Scholz for talks in Frankfurt.
Zelenskyy wants to secure more weapons to help his nation push the Russian invaders off Ukrainian territory.
Denys Davydov, one of YouTube's most recognizable Ukraine experts, sat down with Kyiv Post's Jason Smart to discuss what is transpiring now in the Kursk and Pokrovsk directions while giving intriguing insight as to why Russia has failed to make significant gains. Overall, despite pretending that things are going great, Russia's military leaders know that things are not going according to plan.
What will happen next?
Davydov, a native of Ukraine, argues that Ukraine's efforts to destabilize Russia, including via drone strikes and the invasion of Kursk, could play a significant role in changing the outcome of the war. Already, now that the war has arrived on Russians' doorstep, there are numerous signs that the Russian population's support for the war is lagging. As the population becomes cold to waging war, it will be increasingly likely that big things - yet unseen - could shake-up the war's outcome in ways that the Kremlin would never expect.
Denys Davydov assures Jason Jay Smart that one thing, however, is certain: Russia is struggling to cope with the surprises that Ukraine keeps presenting.

"Just the fact of the possibility that these weapons would be used will probably result in the Russians moving many of their weapons even further back from the frontline."
This would render Russian weapons less effective in their targeting ability against Ukraine, says former US Colonel Cedric Leighton.
Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen discusses restrictions on Ukraine's use of long-range weapons against Russia, the huge size of Danish firms like Ozempic-maker Novo Nordisk, and why she sees controlled immigration as a priority for Europe. Frederiksen speaks with Bloomberg's Oliver Crook.
"China has not stepped up and helped, help Russia particularly."
China is increasingly avoiding supporting Russia militarily in Ukraine as it seeks to repair relations with the US and avoid western sanctions, Economist Tim Ash tells Frontline on #timesradio
This Helsinki Commission Hearing examines how, to enable Ukrainian progress in the near- to medium-term, Western military aid must be purposeful and tied to a concrete and actionable theory of Ukrainian victory. The hearing features key experts on Ukraine and its defensive needs, ongoing battlefield dynamics, and policy recommendations to inform the development of future military aid packages.
Long range munitions can destroy key Russian offensive capabilities and disrupt its sustainment infrastructure; multi-layered air defense can protect Ukrainian cities and deny Russia the air dominance their forces depend upon; and targeted Ukrainian attacks against Russian military targets in occupied Ukraine, and in Russia itself, can help degrade the Russian war economy and boost Ukrainian morale.
With a military unable to compete with Ukrainian defenders on equal footing on the battlefield, Russian forces have resorted to employing overwhelming mass of men and materiel, sustained in large part with munitions, drones, and technological inputs from Iran, North Korea, and China. To counteract these Russian advantages, Western aid should not only allow Ukrainian forces to hold the line, but to degrade and destroy fixed Russian positions, enable offensive operations, and effect general exhaustion and collapse among Russian units.

Herbst is senior director of the Atlantic Council’s Eurasia Center and served for thirty-one years as a foreign service officer in the US Department of State, retiring at the rank of career minister.

Ukraine has unleashed one of the biggest waves of drone strikes to date on Russia. Authorities there say at least one woman has been killed and three others hospitalized in the overnight attacks in and around Moscow. A number of residential properties were hit and around 50 flights had to be diverted from airports around the capital.

Russian gains in the Donbas have not secured Putin's position as exposed targets in Crimea leave Putin reliant on a forced settlement under Donald Trump, say this week's Frontline experts:
Anders Aslund, Economist and former adviser to the Kremlin

Российские успехи в Донбассе не укрепили позиции Путина, поскольку выявленные цели в Крыму заставляют Путина полагаться на принудительное урегулирование при Дональде Трампе, утверждают эксперты Frontline на этой неделе:
To Ukraine now, where the head of the army says Ukrainian forces have captured nearly 13 hundred square kilometers of Russian territory. The Ukrainian incursion was launched three weeks ago, and raised hopes of a respite for Ukrainian civilians living in border areas. Instead, they’re facing a growing barrage of Russian glide bombs: cheap weapons that can wipe out a building in a single strike.
