The West faces risks green-lighting Ukraine's use of long-range missiles - but bowing to Russian threats is more dangerous
Friday, 13 September 2024 Last weekend, the head of the CIA said Western allies should not be intimidated by Vladimir Putin's threats when making decisions on how best to support Ukraine.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has exposed Russia’s latest so-called “peace memorandum” as an outright ultimatum, stating Moscow demanded Ukraine recognize its occupation of Crimea and other regions, fully withdraw troops, and accept neutrality. The second round of Istanbul talks yielded humanitarian gains, like POW swaps, but no ceasefire. Zelensky vowed not to discuss sovereignty or concede territory. While Ukraine offered prisoner exchanges and EU/NATO alignment, Russia refused compromise. The U.S. remains frustrated with Moscow’s hardline stance amid ongoing war escalation.

French President Emmanuel Macron has issued a dramatic warning to Israel, threatening sanctions if Gaza's humanitarian crisis continues. Speaking from Singapore, he urged Israel to adopt a “humanitarian response” and called on European nations to “harden the collective position.” Macron emphasized the urgency, stating action was needed within hours or days. He also reiterated the necessity of recognizing a Palestinian state, calling it both a moral duty and political necessity. His statement signals growing European impatience as Gaza’s hunger crisis worsens and diplomatic tensions mount over aid blockades.

Hamas has officially rejected the Trump administration’s proposed ceasefire and hostage-release deal brokered by U.S. Special Envoy Steve Witkoff, labeling it a “pro-Israel” framework. The plan, which includes a 60-day ceasefire, release of Israeli hostages, and the exchange of over 1,100 Palestinian prisoners, was accepted by Israel but slammed by Hamas for lacking guarantees of a full Israeli withdrawal from Gaza and a permanent ceasefire.

The Houthis launched a major ballistic missile strike on Israel Thursday, triggering air raid sirens nationwide. Israeli forces intercepted the warhead, neutralizing the threat. The attack followed Israeli airstrikes on Sana’a International Airport and a stern “Hot Summer” warning from Houthi leader Al-Mashat, who threatened intensified missile barrages and warned airlines flying to Ben Gurion Airport. Houthis claimed 22 operations against Israel in May alone, reaffirming support for Gaza and vowing to escalate attacks amid ongoing Red Sea tensions.

Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu has approved a U.S.-backed ceasefire framework proposed by envoy Steve Witkoff, calling for a 60-day pause in fighting. Under the deal, Israeli troops would pull back, and Hamas would release 10 hostages and return bodies in exchange for over 1,100 Palestinian prisoners, including 100 convicted of deadly attacks. The plan aims for a longer truce without requiring full Israeli withdrawal. Hamas is reviewing the proposal, as pressure mounts to end the war and free the 58 remaining hostages.

Sir Keir Starmer promised there would be no more “dithering” about backing nuclear power as the Government committed to the Sizewell C plant. The prime minister said the “change of mindset” would help free the UK from reliance on international fossil fuel markets and prevent price spikes such as those in the wake of Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine. Speaking at a college in Ipswich, Sir Keir said: “No more dithering, no more delay, no more being unclear about what we’re going to do, a real statement of intent as we go forward.” Report by Covellm.

Israel has officially confirmed what it long denied — the transfer of Patriot missile systems into Ukraine. After months of silence and strategic hesitation, Tel Aviv has now stepped into the Russia-Ukraine battlefield. But with that move comes serious risk. Will Moscow retaliate? Could Israel be the next pawnin Putin’s response? And what does this mean for a nation already dealing with its own war?
