In Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s first in-person appearance at a UN Security Council meeting on Moscow’s invasion of his country, he told a special meeting that the Russian veto has rendered the world body “ineffective”.
Zelenskyy said that the United Nations was at a dead end regarding aggressions and suggested Russia be stripped of its veto right as one of five permanent members of the post-World War II Security Council as punishment for attacking Ukraine.
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken sided with the US and blamed Russia for weaponizing hunger.
Ukrainian President Zelensky's decision to postpone his foreign visits amidst escalating tensions with Russia reflects the severity of the situation, coinciding with troubling reports of Russian forces capturing key villages near the border. Ukrainian Defense Minister Umerov's acknowledgment of the challenging circumstances highlights the urgent need for increased ammunition deliveries. Concerns persist over Ukraine's readiness to defend against a major Russian attack, compounded by ongoing drone strikes targeting critical military assets like the advanced Bogdana Self-Propelled Guns. The conflict in the Kharkiv Region intensifies as Russian forces make territorial gains, prompting global scrutiny and raising fears of further destabilisation in the region.

China's President Xi Jinping is embarking on a rare visit to Paris, with French President Emmanuel Macron poised to address pressing issues such as trade imbalances and seek Chinese support regarding the conflict in Ukraine. However, achieving these objectives during Xi's brief two-day visit to France will prove challenging, given the backdrop of escalating trade tensions between Europe and China. France is actively supporting a European Union investigation into Chinese exports of electric vehicles, while Beijing's recent initiation of an inquiry into brandy imports, predominantly from France, is widely perceived as retaliatory. Against this backdrop, Macron's administration is keen to emphasise the necessity of obtaining further assurances from Chinese authorities on trade matters. Xi's visit marks his first trip to Europe in half a decade, underscoring the significance of the occasion.

Amidst the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict, Ukraine's military reports record casualties on the Russian side, with 1,740 troops lost in a day, totaling approximately 484,030 casualties since the invasion began. Equipment losses are significant, including 30 tanks and 42 armoured vehicles in 24 hours. Despite challenges in verifying figures, the war's impact is undeniable as it enters its third year, exacerbated by Russia's new offensive. Estimates vary, with the UK suggesting over 465,000 Russian casualties. Moscow remains tight-lipped on losses, while Ukraine's President cites 31,000 Ukrainian troops killed. Fluctuations in casualties occur, with a recent focus on the Kharkiv region. Urgent calls for a peaceful resolution and international intervention echo as civilians suffer amidst the conflict's brutality.

Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico faced a critical assassination attempt by Juraj Cintula, a 71-year-old man with dissent against Fico's policies, particularly regarding arms shipments to Ukraine. Fico's decision to halt arms deliveries after his election victory drew backlash, allegedly motivating Cintula's actions. Described as a "lone wolf" with no extremist affiliations, Cintula's frustrations with government decisions may have been accelerated by the recent presidential election results. Both allies and opposition leaders denounced the attack, highlighting its threat to Slovakia's democracy. Cintula's background as a former security guard and poet adds complexity to the situation. The incident occurred amid debates over the dissolution of Slovakia's public broadcaster, further heightening concerns about political stability. Fico's condition remains serious as Slovakia awaits updates on his recovery.
