Good indeed that Europeans are stepping up support for Ukraine. Not good that the US is stepping so far back. And not good that the US keeps wavering in support for Ukraine & holding back pressure on Russia. Putin's Russia is an adversary. Ukraine halting Putin's invasion helps the US & Russia's success in Ukraine would hurt the US.

Washington has warned European allies, including the UK, Poland, Lithuania and Estonia, to expect long delivery delays for US weapons — including Nasms and Himars — as it scrambles to replenish stockpiles depleted by the Iran war. Deliveries to Ukriane have already been delayed. w/ @FT colleagues ft.com/content/f87a8b…

Zelenskyy instructed his diplomats not to entertain or engage in talks with EU governments regarding "symbolic" or "integrated" status proposals and to talk only about full EU membership. “We won’t even discuss it,” said a senior Ukrainian official. @FT ft.com/content/4641fc…

There have been numerous stories of Ukrainian troops spending months or even over a year stuck on the frontline, due to the omnipresence of killer drones. But that shouldn't have to happen. Ukraine's top general, Oleksandr Syrsky, said he signed an order mandating the rotation of troops serving on frontline positions. "Commanders must ensure that troops remain in positions for no more than two months, followed by mandatory rotation, which must take place within a period of no later than one month. Rotations are to be planned in advance, taking into account the operational situation, the nature of combat operations and available assets and personnel." t.me/osirskiy/1511

Putin and Trump spoke for more than 90 minutes by phone, per Kremlin foreign policy aide Yuri Ushakov, discussing the US war on Iran and the Russian war on Ukraine. "The Americans very well could, so to say, put pressure on and influence Kyiv."

Ukraine's President Zelenskyy wants to "clarify the details of Russia’s proposal for a short-term ceasefire" that Trump said he discussed with Putin during their call on Wednesday. "Ukraine seeks peace and is doing the necessary diplomatic work to bring this war to a real end. We will clarify what exactly this is about – a few hours of security for a parade in Moscow, or something more." "Our proposal is a long-term ceasefire, reliable and guaranteed security for people, and a lasting peace. Ukraine is ready to work toward this in any dignified and effective format."
Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський@ZelenskyyUa

I have instructed our representatives to contact the team of the President of the United States and clarify the details of Russia’s proposal for a short-term ceasefire. Ukraine seeks peace and is doing the necessary diplomatic work to bring this war to a real end. We will clarify what exactly this is about – a few hours of security for a parade in Moscow, or something more. Our proposal is a long-term ceasefire, reliable and guaranteed security for people, and a lasting peace. Ukraine is ready to work toward this in any dignified and effective format.

Ukrainian President Zelenskyy claimed today that Kyiv’s strike range had grown to 1,500km. “We will continue to extend these ranges, and these are entirely justified Ukrainian responses to Russian terror,” he said alongside video of a large cloud of smoke enveloping Perm, a city in the Ural Mountains. ft.com/content/b8c32f…
