     STORY: :: Ukraine is cheered as EU membership talks begin in a 'historic' moment for the country :: June 25, 2024 :: Luxembourg :: Olga Stefanishyna, Ukrainian Deputy Prime Minister :: "The Ukrainian constitution, meanwhile, reaffirms the European identity of Ukrainian people and irreversibility of Ukraine's European course. We firmly believe that the initiation of its session negotiations today mark a historic milestone of our relationship, but it's only a beginning of the longer way we will go through together. Thank you." The talks are meant to give the country a political boost in the midst of its war against Russia's invasion, although a long and tough road still lies ahead before it could join the bloc. The ceremony in Luxembourg will be more about symbolism than the nitty-gritty of negotiations, which will start in earnest only after the EU has screened reams of Ukrainian legislation to assess all the reforms needed to meet the bloc's standards. But by marking the start of talks with Ukraine, and with its neighbour Moldova later in the day, the EU is signaling that both countries are on a path away from Russian influence and towards greater integration with the West.

     North Korean official criticizes US support for Ukraine

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: A top North Korean military official on Monday criticized the US for increasing military aid to Ukraine, according to state media a show of support for Moscow in the ongoing Ukraine war. A recent pact between Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong Un, announced during Putin's visit to Pyongyang last week commits both countries to provide immediate military assistance in the case of aggression against either one of them potentially enabling arms trading and strengthening their anti-US alliance. Both Washington and Seoul are concerned about the prospect of increased military cooperation between Moscow and Pyongyang and have accused them of already violating international laws by trading arms for use against Ukraine. Russia and North Korea deny these claims. North Korea's Pak Jong Chon, the top official speaking in state media Monday warned of a potential strong response from Moscow if the US pushes Ukraine towards a "proxy war" against Russia, possibly leading to a "new world war." He referred to comments by the Pentagon last week that Ukrainian forces can use U.S.-supplied weapons to strike Russian forces anywhere across the border into Russia. In a joint statement released the same day by Seoul's foreign ministry officials from South Korea, the U.S., and Japan strongly condemned the deepening military ties between North Korea and Russia.

In his nightly video address, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said Russian forces had used more than 2,400 guided bombs on Ukrainian targets in June alone, with about 700 aimed at Kharkiv. He said after U.S. Congress gave delayed approval of a big aid package in April, Ukraine's replenished arms supplies had reduced the devastation and frequency of missile attacks and the same had to be done now to fend off these bombs.

     Ukraine captures Russian anti-drone 'barn' tank

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: This is what the Ukrainian army is calling a "barn" tank. It's a bizarre-looking Russian battlefield vehicle, captured by Kyiv's forces. And it seems to highlight how troops are trying to adapt to the constant threat of drone attacks. The vehicle, built from a ramshackle, rusted T-62 tank, was modified to have a boxy metal shell as its exterior, a cage at its rear and electronic warfare devices attached to it. That's according to soldiers who spoke to Reuters after it was captured this week. Its canopy appeared to be built to protect against drones, particularly cheaply produced First-Person-View ones. Those are strapped with a munition and flown to their target by a pilot watching on a screen. Dmytro is a Ukrainian soldier. “I don’t even know what it (‘barn’ tank) is made of. But the tracks are protected. A shell that hit it bent it a bit. But this protection is helpful it prevents shells from going under and it protects the tracks. It does give the crew an advantage for a certain, short period of time." Soldiers say the "barn" tank's main purpose was shuttling around food, ammunition and troops. Dmytro added that getting in and out of the vehicle, carrying equipment through its tiny hatch, was difficult. And that visibility was very limited and the stench inside overwhelming. Aerial drone footage shot by the Ukrainian military and published on June 17 showed the tank being captured in a wooded area along with a Russian crew. Kyiv's forces then planted a Ukrainian flag on top of it. Nearly 28 months since Russia launched its full-scale invasion, the use of drones by both sides has become ubiquitous on the battlefield - making it harder for both sides to advance or operate safely. The Ukrainians say the vehicle was captured near Klishchiivka - a village gripped by months of fighting near the Russian-occupied city of Bakhmut.

     In talks with Putin, Kim vows 'full support' for Russia in Ukraine

     Associated Press Videos

     North Korean leader Kim Jong Un promised full support for Russia’s war in Ukraine before starting a one on one meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin. Putin’s visit comes amid growing concerns about an arms arrangement in which Pyongyang provides Moscow with badly needed munitions to fuel Russia’s war in Ukraine in exchange for economic assistance and technology transfers that could enhance the threat posed by Kim’s nuclear weapons and missile program. Putin thanked Kim for the support and said the two countries would sign an agreement to boost their partnership as both “fight against the imperialist hegemonistic policies of the U.S. and its satellites against the Russian Federation.”

     Majority of 90 countries at Ukraine peace summit sign declaration

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: The vast majority of more than 90 countries attending a Swiss summit on peace for Ukraine supported its final declaration, as it concluded on Sunday (June 14). Initiated by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy, the two-day summit at the Swiss Alpine resort of Buergenstock aimed to find a consensus on how to end the war in Ukraine. "I am confident that together we will ensure the result. The first and the second peace summits should unite our joint work on the details of peace." Many Western leaders voiced condemnation of Russia's invasion and rejected President Vladimir Putin's demands for parts of Ukraine as a condition for peace. However, some countries that attended the summit did not put their name to the communique, including Mexico, Saudi Arabia and India. There was no clarity on whether future talks would involve Russia. Swiss president, Viola Amherd. "A lasting solution must involve both parties. Excellencies, ladies and gentlemen, the discussions over the past two days have shown that there are different points of view. All the more important is our understanding that the path towards peace in Ukraine must be pursued on the basis of international law, and in particular, the United Nations Charter." Moscow, which was not invited, labeled the summit a waste of time. China was another notable absentee. The conference nevertheless underscored both the broad support Ukraine still enjoys from its allies but also the challenges for any lasting ceasefire. A draft of the final declaration seen by Reuters refers to Russia's invasion as a 'war', a label Moscow rejects. It calls for Ukraine's control over the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant and its Azov Sea ports to be restored and for Ukraine's territorial integrity to be respected. But in line with the conference's more modest stated aims, it omitted tougher issues of what a post-war settlement for Ukraine might look like and whether Ukraine could join the NATO alliance. The Kremlin did not rule out future talks with Kyiv, but said guarantees will be needed to ensure the credibility of any negotiations. Whether there will be a follow up to the summit, and where it would be held remained unclear.

     EU states won't be involved in G7 Ukraine loan- Italy PM

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: :: Italy’s prime minister says EU states won’t be directly involved in a G7 loan to Ukraine :: June 15, 2024 :: Giorgia Meloni, Italian prime minister ''As I think you know, the loan of about $50 billion has already been announced and will be provided by the United States. Then Canada, the United Kingdom and probably Japan, subject of course to its constitutional limitations, have also announced that they will probably participate. At the moment, the European Nations are not participating in this loan, also considering the fact that the assets are all immobilised in Europe of course, and therefore Europe is already contributing by identifying the guarantee mechanism for the repayment of this loan, on the understanding that, as you know, this decision will have to go through the European Council and must be technically defined by the finance ministers of the European Union.'' During the first day of their meeting in southern Italy, the G7 nations agreed on an outline deal to provide $50 billion of loans for Ukraine backed by interest from frozen Russian assets - hailing the accord as a powerful signal of Western resolve. In the summit statement, G7 leaders said they wanted to inflict further costs on Russia for its invasion of Ukraine and also promised sanctions against entities that helped Russia circumvent restrictions on its oil trading by transporting it fraudulently.

     World leaders join Ukraine peace summit

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: World leaders gathered at a Swiss mountain resort on Saturday (June 15) to plan a path to peace and end Russia's war in Ukraine. More than 90 countries are expected at the high security two-day gathering in Buergenstock. But notable absences such as China will blunt the summit's potential impact, dimming hopes it would show Russia as globally isolated. The talks will focus on broader concerns triggered by the war. This includes food and nuclear security, and a draft of the final declaration identifying Russia as the aggressor, sources said. Ukrainian President Volodymr Zelenskiy applauded the summit's wide attendance as a success. "The views, ideas and leadership of each nation are equally important to us. And everything that will be agreed upon at the summit today will be part of the peace making process that we all need. I believe that we will witness history being made here at the summit." While many major world leaders are set to attend, Joe Biden has sent U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris to represent him - riling Kyiv. However, Harris announced more than $1.5 billion in energy and humanitarian aid, as Russia continues to strike the country's infrastructure since the invasion began in 2022. Powers like Saudi Arabia and India have dispatched lower level delegations. China said it would consider taking part, but ultimately declined because Russia would not be there. Zelenskiy has accused Beijing of helping Moscow undermine the gathering, an accusation China's Foreign Ministry denied. European officials privately concede that without support from Moscow's main allies, the summit's impact will be limited. Neutral Switzerland, which took on the summit at the behest of Zelenskiy, wants to pave the way for a future peace process that includes Russia. Russian President Vladimir Putin said Russia would end the war only if Kyiv agreed to drop its NATO ambitions and hand over four provinces claimed by Moscow - demands Kyiv swiftly rejected.

     Ukraine peace summit will make 'history' says Zelenskiy

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: :: The Ukraine peace summit will make 'history' says President Volodymyr Zelenskiy :: June 15, 2024 :: Buergenstock, Switzerland "Ukraine never wanted this war. It's criminal and absolutely unprovoked aggression by Russia. And the only one who wanted it was (Russian president Vladimir) Putin. But in any case, the world is stronger. That's why the peace formula was born, the formula of the unity of the world majority for the sake of peace, for the sake of the full effectiveness of the principles and purposes of the UN charter, international law, and thus global security. Thus is something that is close to every nation in the world." "The views, ideas and leadership of each nation are equally important to us. And everything that will be agreed upon at the summit today will be part of the peace making process that we all need. I believe that we will witness history being made here at the summit." About 100 countries and organizations are expected at the two-day gathering in Buergenstock, in central Switzerland. He called Russia's war an "unprovoked aggression" only wanted by Russian president Vladimir Putin. Switzerland, which took on the summit at the behest of Zelenskiy, wants to pave the way for a future peace process that includes Russia. Swiss President Viola Amherd, speaking alongside Zelenskiy, said the Ukrainian people had faced "unimaginable suffering" since the start of the war and stressed that it was vital to uphold the U.N. Charter and international law.

     Ukraine's older recruits await help from younger fighters

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: From a trench near the front line in Ukraine's eastern Donetsk region, this 55-year-old soldier, who goes by the call sign "Dad," is conducting battleground training. Ukrainian forces, now 27 months into a war with Russia, have become heavily reliant on older soldiers like "Dad" to defend the country. But they need reinforcements. 33rd Mechanized Brigade chief sergeant, call sign Deputy, is 44 years old. “In reality the average age of our brigade’s soldiers is quite high – there are a lot of people over 50. But their motivation is much higher than of the young troops. They understand why they're here: for the sake of their kids and grandchildren. They understand that there is no one else to do it except us.” As fewer volunteers line up to fight for their country than in the first months of the war, Ukraine is now under pressure to call up more troops. Call sign Canada, is a 40 year-old commander in the brigade: “Older troops could be trained to hold defensive positions. But if it's about performing other combat duties - assaulting fields, trenches, returning our land - then of course we need younger boys who are more resilient.” Russia, having seized the initiative after a failed Ukrainian counteroffensive last year, is gradually making inroads that could threaten key cities and roads in the east. This comes as Ukrainian officials say they want a full withdrawal of Russian troops and to regain all of their internationally recognized territory, a task many experts say will be difficult as the war grinds on and saps more resources. Aimed at attracting more volunteers, Ukraine's call-up effort - bolstered by government and military PR campaigns - have offered candidates a choice of where and how to serve. 50-year-old Ukrainian soldier "Bell" had this appeal to compatriots: “I don’t judge (those who do not join the army). No one should be forced to join the army. They should understand that no one other than us and them will do this. This is important. Everyone will have kids and families at some point. They need to be defended now, not whenever you're given a draft notice.”
