Stoltenberg on Peace Talks with the Russian Federation: Minsk-3 Cannot Be Allowed

NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg emphasized that Alliance leaders are determined to resist any pressure to push Ukraine into talks that would involve relinquishing its territory or abandoning NATO membership as a precondition for a ceasefire.

"Alliance leaders are determined and strong, and this will be clearly expressed at the NATO summit, where I expect a strong aid package for Ukraine. With new training and assistance from the Alliance for Ukraine, a NATO command for Ukraine, financial commitments, additional announcements of increased military support, and bilateral security agreements," Stoltenberg emphasized.

He noted that it is Kyiv that should decide what conditions are acceptable for peace talks and any solution reached through negotiations, as Ukraine is a sovereign independent state.

russia is using the Kerch Bridge to remove stolen minerals from the occupied territories of Ukraine, according to an intelligence report from the UK Ministry of Defense.

One of the reasons russia is seeking to improve transport infrastructure in the occupied part of Ukraine is that it wants to extract more Ukrainian minerals. One of the russian occupation officials in the Zaporozhye region previously stated that the modernization and construction of road and rail transport links with russia would improve communication routes not only for military logistics, but also for the export of grain and minerals.

Such fine people Russia has in its army. Murderers, rapists, and thieves.

In Russia, an Airborne Forces colonel was detained, whose regiment is accused of killing residents of Bucha.

In Ryazan, FSB military counterintelligence detained Artem Gorodilov, commander of the 83rd Separate Guards Air Assault Order of Suvorov Brigade. Naturally, the case is not connected with the murders in Bucha . The colonel is suspected of particularly large-scale fraud, RosSMI reports.

✈️  A Ukrainian "Shark" reconnaissance UAV found in the Stavropol Territory, about 460 km from the fontlines

🟢 There is also information that this morning, a Russian GRU military unit in the Stavropol region was attacked by Ukrainian drones

And this is already good news that the drone flew so deep into the rear, if at the same time data and pictures were transmitted.

SERHIY, will serve on the PATRIOT air defense system. Here's what he says:

- My hometown is "temporarily occupied" on the left bank of the Kherson region. Now russian anti-aircraft missile systems are stationed there, artillery is operating from there, and the russian military is establishing its procedures. My parents have been living under russian occupation for two and a half years. Just imagine how it is? Going to bed knowing that a few meters away are armed people who hate everything Ukrainian, want to kill you and destroy everything dear to you?

It is clear that I have a strong motivation to serve. In fact, it was the thought that I would become an officer and work on the new, powerful Patriot air defense system that gave me confidence all these months.

We were one of the first to go to study abroad. They worked out dozens of scenarios, trained intensively, adjusting the parameters of the "targets" to our combat conditions... However, real combat work, and especially at the time of massive missile and drone attacks, is something else. Later, during an internship in the unit, I witnessed a powerful anti-aircraft battle. Everyone is in their place, everyone knows what they are doing. This is impressive!
Of course, I was ready to defend the Ukrainian skies at old Soviet complexes as well. But, I will be frank, serving on the Patriot is much cooler: the possibility of ballistics work, a longer range of damage, and many other options unavailable to the Soviet air defense system.

I understand that many years of hard work lie ahead. But we are ready! To have enough rockets!
