Ukrainian attacks in Russia are going deeper and deeper. For the first time since the beginning of the conflict, a swarm of drones reached as far as North Ossetiaat the southern end of the Caucasus, for hit a base from which enemy fighters take off: a target over 700 kilometers away from the front line.
«All of Europe is threatened by Russiathe stakes are very high,” he said Biden at a press conference in Paris with his French colleague Macron, during his first state visit. In turn Macron thanked Biden for the US commitment to Kiev. Both leaders appeared to agree on several topics, having largely overcome the frost of 2021 with the submarine crisis.
Ukraine, Biden: “Putin will not stop, all of Europe is under threat”
Meanwhile, Kiev it also asks its allies for a further effort. The spotlight is on G7 of the leaders in Italy next week, in which Volodymyr Zelensky will also participate. His hope is that the Westerners convince themselves to drain resources from the Russians using their frozen assets, and not just profits. The members of the G7 and the EU have been discussing it for some time and work is underway towards an agreement at least at a general level to be formalized at the leaders’ summit scheduled in Puglia on 13-15 June: Washington is pushing in this directionbut Europeans have reservations of a technical-legal nature and political expediency (for example, the fear of discouraging future investments by other large world economies). Hence the appeal from the Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba, a few days before the Big 7 summit: «We understand the concerns of our partners, but we believe that there are all the international legal bases to use not only the profits but also the assets themselves in the interests of Ukraine. International law defines them quite clearly.”
