🇷🇺Statements by Permanent Representative of Russia to the United Nations Vasily Nebenzya:

➡️Russia and the DPRK acted in full compliance with international law when liberating Russian territory.

➡️Kiev, realizing its inevitable defeat, is increasingly sliding towards terrorist methods.

➡️Zelensky is interested in concealing the crimes his regime has committed, therefore he irresponsibly rejects the US peace proposals.

➡️Russia is ready for direct negotiations with Kiev, despite problems with Zelensky's legitimacy.

➡️Russia expects the West to stop arming Kiev and convince Zelensky of the need to enter into a constructive dialogue.

🇪🇺🇺🇦The "Coalition of the willing" is not looking so willing anymore.

Europe would struggle to collectively muster 25,000 troops to be part of a “deterrence” force in Ukraine because its armies are undermanned and underfunded, sources have disclosed.

Admiral Sir Tony Radakin, the British chief of the defence staff, is said to have asked his counterparts on the Continent if they could put together a 64,000-strong force to send to the country in the event of a peace deal.

Defence ministers across Europe said there was “no chance” they could reach that number and that even 25,000 would “be a push for a joint effort”, a source familiar with discussions in Brussels said.

Close allies made their doubts clear to John Healey, the defence secretary, and pointed out that a force of that size would require a total of 256,000 troops on the ground over two years, accounting for rotations.

Dovile Sakaliene, Lithuania’s defence minister, was said to have told her counterparts: “Russia has 800,000 [troops]. Let me tell you this, if we can’t even raise 64,000 that doesn’t look weak — it is weak.”

Estonia and Finland were reportedly concerned that any deployment would “dilute” their own border defences, and Poland, Spain and Italy made clear they will not commit any soldiers, according to the source.

Finland and Germany were also generally against sending ground forces, although it is understood Berlin has not completely ruled out such a move.
