A senior member of a Russian think tank whose ideas sometimes become government policy has suggested Moscow consider a "demonstrative" nuclear explosion to cow the West into refusing to allow Ukraine to use its arms against targets inside Russia.
The proposal, by Dmitry Suslov, a member of the Moscow-based Council for Foreign and Defence Policy, was issued a day after President Vladimir Putin warned the West that NATO members in Europe were playing with fire by proposing to let Kyiv use Western weapons to strike deep inside Russia, something he said could trigger a global conflict.
 
The GUR released footage of naval drones, attacking in occupied Crimea overnight. Again, work by GROUP 13, already famous for their work against Russian ships mainly by using Magura V5 drones. At least one big hit is registered.

France will soon start sending troops to train Ukrainian forces in the war-torn country, Kyiv’s top commander said on Monday.

The French defence ministry said: “As already mentioned several times, training on Ukrainian soil is one of the projects discussed since the conference on support for Ukraine convened by the President of the Republic on February 26.
 
Answers to media questions following the visit to Uzbekistan

Vladimir Putin re NATO arms to Ukraine to strike inside Russia:

Look at what your Western colleagues are reporting. No one is talking about shelling Belgorod or other adjacent territories. The only thing they are talking about is Russia opening a new front and attacking Kharkov. Not a word. Why is that? They did it with their own hands. Well, let them reap the fruits of their ingenuity. The same thing can happen in case the long-range precision weapons which you asked about is used.
More broadly, this unending escalation can lead to serious consequences. If Europe were to face those serious consequences, what will the United States do, considering our strategic arms parity? It is hard to tell.
Are they looking for a global conflict? I think they wanted to agree upon strategic arms, but we do not really see them being really eager to do so. They are talking about it but are not doing much to make it happen. We will wait and see what happens next.
 
France to send troops to Ukraine to train soldiers:





I think it’s important to remember that prior to February of 2022 these trainers were in Ukraine even during the previous 10 years of conflict, so well it’s an escalation it’s also just a return to the previous status quo.
Also I have a suspicion this training has probably been happening in Ukraine, albeit in smaller numbers, for the better part of a year now and the Russians have been screaming that there’s been NATO troops in Ukraine for the same time period, so I’m not expecting much reaction beyond running their mouth.
 

U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Thursday assailed Russian attempts to sow discord in democracies with misinformation after hinting the Biden administration may soon allow Ukraine to use American-supplied munitions to strike inside Russia.
In Prague for a NATO foreign ministers meeting, Blinken hit out at Moscow’s use of misinformation and disinformation, calling it a “poison” and signing an agreement with the Czech government to combat it. He also toured a Czech military base, where he saw armored vehicles that Prague is sending to Kyiv to help fight Russia’s invasion and received a briefing on a Czech initiative to supply Ukraine with a million rounds of ammunition by the end of the year.
 

Russian Ambassador to Denmark Vladimir Barbin has warned the country, a member of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), not to underestimate the threat of nuclear war.
Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen said in comments to Norwegian broadcaster TV2 on Tuesday that Kyiv is "welcome to use what we have donated to Ukraine, also outside of Ukraine—that is, on Russian targets—if it is within international law." However, she did not clarify if this would apply to the F-16 fighter aircraft.
"Strikes by longer-range weapons require direct technical assistance from NATO countries, something Copenhagen is well aware of. However, Denmark seems to be willing to give Kyiv carte blanche to provoke a direct clash between NATO and Russia. The consequences here will be devastating," Russia state owned news agency TASS reported on Thursday.war.
