Ants Kiviselg “The Russian Armed Forces are advancing on the recently opened Kharkiv front, but their pace is slowing down. This and the nature of their behaviour rather indicate a desire to create a buffer zone. Russian troops have attacked and destroyed important bridges in the area of Vovchansk, which creates a natural barrier between Ukrainian and Russian forces. This is more an indication of the intention of Russian forces to build a defensive line than to create a bridgehead for an advance on Kharkiv.” 8 hours ago
Vladimir Putin “Russia is ready and able to continuously power the Chinese economy, businesses, cities and towns with affordable and environmentally clean energy.” 8 hours ago
Alexey Muraviev “There are limits to the two nations' ties, despite their insistence that it is limitless. The limits are that the two countries don't have a formal alliance agreement. To me, that's very clearly a sign that there are limitations to what seems to be a limitless relationship. Neither side is prepared to unconditionally commit to support each other on issues like Ukraine.” 8 hours ago

“There is absolutely no acceptable reason for glorifying convicted war criminals. My understanding is such that I'm not here to bring my own narratives … it's necessary that we see history, we respect history, especially that we respect victims. I have chosen to come here because I feel accountable, especially as a German who knows that his country contributed to many bad things in this region in the last century. I am not someone who is here for a journey or who has come here to drink coffee or wine, I am here to move certain things forward, which means I understand that task very seriously. Dayton and the Peace Agreement - I really give a recommendation to read those again. We are here to solve problems and I'm convinced that through meaningful discussions and things we can come to adequate results with all three representatives.”
