According to NATO and Great Britain, ammunition for Ukraine is running low.
The NATO and Great Britain have called on the Western allies to increase production due to declining ammunition stocks. „The bottom of the barrel is now visible,“ said the Chairman of the NATO Military Committee, Rob Bauer, during a discussion at the Warsaw Security Forum, as reported by CNN. „We need a significantly faster increase in production from the industry.“The British Minister of State for the Armed Forces, James Heappey, also urged the alliance partners to replenish supplies: „We need to support Ukraine tonight, tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, and even beyond that in the fight. And if we stop, it doesn’t automatically mean that Putin will stop.“The British newspaper Telegraph previously reported that the supply of weapons that the UK can still deliver to Ukraine is running low. Specifically, there is a shortage of air defense weapons and artillery ammunition. -

Lambsdorff zieht Parallele zwischen Mauerfall und ukrainischem Freiheitskampf
Germany’s ambassador to Russia, Alexander Graf Lambsdorff, praised the role of the Soviet Union in German reunification during a ceremonial speech. He stated that without the support of their partners in the United States, France, and Great Britain, as well as the Soviet Union at that time, Germany would not have its national holiday. He made these remarks in front of diplomats, business representatives, and journalists.Lambsdorff stated that the fall of the Berlin Wall was also a result of the strong desire for freedom among the people of Central and Eastern Europe. He mentioned that Ukraine is now striving for freedom, peace, security, and national sovereignty as well. On the other hand, Russia is bringing violence to its neighboring country through its war. The ambassador also criticized the situation in Russia itself, pointing out that the violence of the Russian state is directed internally against critics and dissenters within the country.

EU-Ratspräsident Charles Michel und die Staats- und Regierungschefs aus Großbritannien, Kanada, Italien, Japan, Polen, Rumänien sowie die französische Außenministerin waren ebenfalls angeschlossen. Die US-Regierung plant, zu einem späteren Zeitpunkt weitere Informationen über das Gespräch zu veröffentlichen.Es sei ein „gutes Gespräch“ der führenden Vertreter von EU, G7, Nato und dem „Bukarest 9“-Format gewesen, teilte von der Leyen nach den Beratungen mit. Seitens der EU seien neue Finanzhilfen in Höhe von 50 Milliarden Euro für Reformen und Investitionen vorgeschlagen worden. Bis März 2024 wolle man eine Million Schuss Munition an die Ukraine liefern. Die EU wolle zudem dabei unterstützen, durch Russland verübte Verbrechen aufzuklären.
In the USA, reaching an agreement on a new budget was only possible after the removal of aid for Ukraine. According to individuals familiar with the conversation, Biden reaffirmed his determination to continue assisting Ukraine during the phone conference. John Kirby, the spokesperson for the National Security Council, stated that the USA could provide military aid to Ukraine for „several months“ without additional funding from Congress. However, this depends on the needs of the Ukrainian armed forces and the developments in the war against Russian invaders.

Poland and Ukraine reach agreement on grain exports.
Poland and Ukraine have temporarily resolved their dispute over Ukrainian grain exports. In a joint agreement with Lithuania reached on Tuesday, the countries have agreed to expedite the transit of exports to markets in Africa and the Middle East through Poland. Starting from Wednesday, exports shipped through Lithuanian ports will no longer be subject to control at the Polish-Ukrainian border, according to Poland’s Minister of Agriculture, Robert Telus.Efrem Lukatsky/AP/dpaGetreidespeicher in der Region Kiew
Due to the war, the traditional export route for Ukrainian grain through the Black Sea is blocked by Russia. The EU imposed trade restrictions on Ukraine for transportation through land routes in order to protect farmers in transit countries such as Poland, Hungary, Bulgaria, and Romania. Grain from Ukraine was allowed to be transported through these countries but not sold there. When the restrictions expired, Poland, Hungary, and Slovakia extended the ban, causing diplomatic tensions with the government in Kiev. -
Ukrainischer Geheimdienst will Spionagering zerschlagen haben
The Ukrainian domestic intelligence agency, SBU, has reported the arrest of 13 individuals accused of spying for Russia. According to the SBU, they have dismantled „one of the largest Russian espionage networks since the beginning of the war.“Die 13 Bewohner der südukrainischen Region Mykolajiw sollen laut der SBU-Darstellung für den russischen Geheimdienst FSB spioniert haben. Diesen hätten sie beispielsweise über Truppenbewegungen informiert. Auch sollen sie an der Koordinierung russischer Luftangriffe auf die gleichnamige Hauptstadt der Region Mykolajiw beteiligt gewesen sein.
So wirft der SBU ihnen eine Beteiligung an einem Raketenangriff auf ein mehrstöckiges Gebäude in Mykolajiw im Herbst 2022 vor, bei dem sieben Zivilisten getötet worden seien. Bei der Übergabe der Geodaten sollen sie mit einem bereits im Juni der Spionage beschuldigten prorussischen Blogger zusammengearbeitet haben. Die nun festgenommenen mutmaßlichen Spione soll er über seinen Telegram-Kanal rekrutiert haben.
The information provided by the SBU cannot be independently verified. The detainees face the possibility of lengthy prison sentences.

The General Inspector of the Bundeswehr does not believe that Russia is at its end.
Bundeswehr-Generalinspekteur Carsten Breuer hält eine weitere Eskalation des derzeitigen Kriegs für nicht ausgeschlossen und dringt deswegen auf einen Ausbau der Verteidigungsfähigkeit Deutschlands und der Nato.Breuer pointed out that, from his perspective, there were indications of Russia’s attack on mainland Ukraine in 2022. At that time, people were stuck in a comfort zone and did not want to believe it. As a consequence, it is now necessary to support the partners who are seen as potential new frontline states.

According to the report, the integration of occupied territories is progressing slowly.
According to a report, the process of „integrating“ the four southern Ukrainian regions of Cherson, Saporischschja, Luhansk, and Donezk into the Russian administrative apparatus is progressing slowly. This information comes from the opposition online platform Meduza, citing sources within the Russian Presidential Administration.According to this, the Russian government has abandoned its plans to merge the four regions annexed a year ago into a new federal district. Instead, they will now be incorporated into the existing Southern Russia federal district, which also includes Crimea, annexed in 2014.
Ukrinform/dpaSoldaten in der Region Saporischschja
One reason for this is the lack of prospects for further territorial gains. None of the four regions were able to be completely conquered by Russian troops, only Luhansk is almost fully occupied. However, in Cherson and Zaporizhia, the regional capitals are still located in Ukrainian-controlled territory. The decision not to establish a new federal district suggests that Russia’s goal is to „keep what they have“, according to the report.Another reason: The Russian government is having difficulties finding suitable officials for leadership positions in the occupied regions of Kherson and Zaporizhia, which unlike Luhansk and Donetsk, have not been partially occupied since 2014. Serious officials who would give these positions the desired weight would refuse to permanently live and work in the occupied regions due to the high security risk, Meduza writes. There have been a number of attacks on occupation officials since last year.
