     Joe Biden says Putin will not prevail in war with Ukraine

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: :: September 13, 2024 :: Washington, D.C. :: Biden says Putin 'will not prevail in war with Ukraine' “The United States is committed to standing with you to help Ukraine as a defense against Russia's onslaught and aggression, and be clear, make it clear that Putin will not prevail in this war and the people of Ukraine will prevail.” :: The remark came as British PM Starmer visited the White House :: Keir Starmer, British Prime Minister “Starting, of course, with Ukraine, where I think the next few weeks and months could be crucial. Very, very important that we support Ukraine in this vital war of freedom.” :: Putin warned the West that enabling Ukrainian long-range strikes would lead to conflict with Russia “What do you say to Vladimir Putin’s threat of war, Mr. President?” “I don’t think much about Vladimir Putin.” The two leaders discussed the next steps in supporting Ukraine, centring on whether to allow Western missiles to be used to hit targets in Russia. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy has been pleading with allies for months to let Ukraine fire Western missiles including long-range U.S. ATACMS and British Storm Shadows deep into Russia to limit Moscow's ability to launch attacks. The New York Times reported, citing European officials, that the United States looks set to approve the use by Ukraine of long range missiles against targets in Russia on the condition that the weapons were not those provided by the United States. President Vladimir Putin said on Thursday that the West would be directly fighting with Russia if it allowed Ukraine to strike Russian territory with Western-made long-range missiles, a move he said would alter the nature and scope of the conflict.

     Ukraine firms hire more women and teens as labor shortages bite

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: Liliia Shulha has landed her dream job after years in what she described as "boring, sedentary" office work. Now she drives trucks with Ukraine's leading retailer, Fozzy Group. Ukraine has lost more than a quarter of its workforce since Russia's invasion in 2022, central bank data shows. And businesses are hiring more women in traditionally male-dominated roles. Childcare is in short supply though, and Shulha had to move back in with her parents for help with her two teenagers. "Yes, people are curious and shocked when they see me. They all film me on their phones when I deliver or load my lorry. They take pictures of me, whether it's passers-by or others, they're all shocked. Soon there'll be more us, and people won't be that shocked anymore. Soon it won't be news anymore that women work in such professions. Then people will leave me alone." Millions of people, mostly women and children, have fled abroad, and tens of thousands of men have been mobilized. Reuters spoke to representatives of nine Ukrainian companies who found that staff shortages and a growing mismatch of skills were big challenges. In the agricultural southern region of Mykolayiv, women like Maria Korolenko are being trained as tractor drivers, as well as tram and truck drivers, coal miners, security guards, and warehouse workers, companies say. "I understood how necessary it was for me to work. Not only for me and not only for my family. Right now, unfortunately, the men are being taken away - more and more of them are being taken away. And it's so hard. Now we do all the work that the boys used to do. // When the war is over, when we win, the guys will come back and give us holidays." Businesses have raised wages, and are hiring more retirees and teenagers. Vodafone has repackaged its youth program to bring more young people on board. Ilona Voloshyna is head of training and development in Kyiv. "Right now, we're feeling the shortfall even more. If we look at the numbers from last year, around 40 percent of our specialists have left our shops. So, we're feeling the lack of the workforce in the market." The government and foreign partners have launched several programs to help Ukrainians reskill. But analysts expect the jobs crisis to persist and warn it could endanger post-war recovery.

     US, UK offer Ukraine aid, raise hopes on long-range strikes

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: The US and Britain's top diplomats unveiled more than a billion dollars in new, combined support for Ukraine Wednesday. Secretary of State Antony Blinken and UK foreign minister David Lammy were visiting Kyiv to hear Ukraine's war goals. In a press conference bookended by air raid sirens, both foreign ministers also hinted at lifting limits on for long-range missile strikes into Russia - which Ukraine desperately wants. However there was no clear answer by the end of the briefing. "Among other things, we discussed long-range fires, but a number of other things as well. And as I said at the outset, I'm going to take that discussion back to Washington to brief the president on what I heard, I know that David is doing the same." Lammy and Blinken had arrived at a critical juncture in Ukraine's struggle against Russia. Russia has been advancing in the east, putting pressure on Kyiv. Meanwhile, Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskiy has been pleading with allies to remove curbs on long-range U.S. ATACMS and British Storm Shadow missiles, to strike deep into Russian territory. But Washington, and some European capitals, fear that would provoke Moscow and draw the West into a direct conflict with Russia. Overnight, U.S. President Joe Biden suggested there was room for compromise and that his administration was 'working out' the long-range strike limits. While Vyacheslav Volodin, speaker of Russia's lower parliament, said Moscow would consider the U.S. and its allies to be parties to the war if they allowed Kyiv to use long-range weapons to strike deep in Russia. Speaking on Wednesday, Zelenskiy revealed he will travel to the U.S. later this month, to present a plan to Biden and both candidates in November's presidential election that he hopes will bring the end of the war closer.

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: :: U.S.'s Blinken, UK's Lammy promise more aid for Ukraine during a visit to Kyiv :: Antony Blinken, U.S. Secretary of State "With an expansion of attacks from Russia pummeling Ukrainian cities, citizens, infrastructure, with monstrous brutality. And now Putin's further empowering his aggression with the acquisition of Iranian ballistic missiles. So we're working with urgency to continue to ensure that Ukraine has what it needs to effectively defend itself." // "Among other things, we discussed long-range fires, but a number of other things as well. And as I said at the outset, I'm going to take that discussion back to Washington to brief the president on what I heard, I know that David is doing the same." :: September 11, 2024 :: David Lammy, UK Foreign Minister "Today, I can confirm more than 600 million worth of support for Ukraine, including 242 million this financial year for immediate humanitarian, energy and stabilization needs, as well as support for reform, recovery and reconstruction." Blinken and Lammy are expected to push Ukraine for more information on its strategic aims as they consider whether to give the go-ahead, according to Western sources. There is nervousness in Washington and some European capitals that doing so would provoke Russia towards a direct conflict with the West, while officials also recognize that Ukraine needs more help if it is to swing the war in its favor. Blinken has declined to say whether Washington would give permission but said multiple factors went into any decision.

Millions of Ukrainians have also been displaced, while many cities and villages have become piles of rubble. Russia has escalated its drone and missile attacks on Ukraine in recent weeks, while Ukraine has also sent hundreds of long-range attack drones deep into Russian territory.
