US Defence Secretary Austin makes unannounced visit to Kyiv, pledging ongoing support for Ukraine
This is Austin’s second trip to Kyiv, but he’s making it under far different circumstances, as the world’s attention is drawn to the Middle East and signs of fatigue set in with the almost 21-month Russia-Ukraine war.
Chinese President Xi Jinping has delivered a bold message during Russia’s Victory Day commemorations, calling for the elimination of the root causes of the Ukraine conflict—remarks widely interpreted as a direct swipe at NATO and Western policy. In closed-door talks with Vladimir Putin, Xi pushed for a “fair, lasting, and binding” peace deal, while stressing that the security concerns of all nations must be respected.

Ukraine is set to receive more U.S.-made Patriot air-defense systems as deadly Russian strikes intensify. A refurbished system from Israel is being rerouted, with Germany or Greece possibly sending another. While Trump pushes for peace, Zelensky’s plea for more weapons resurfaces after a missile strike killed 13 in Kyiv. With U.S. weapons deliveries from Biden’s era nearing exhaustion, the incoming Patriots are vital. The recent minerals deal between Ukraine and the U.S. could also open the door for further arms support as Kyiv braces for another wave of Russian aggression.
