❗️The Guardian reports that Donald Trump is unlikely to accept Zelensky’s invitation to visit Ukraine.
In the wake of the recent Russian strike on Sumy, Trump's response was minimal—calling it merely a “mistake.”
While tensions rises, Trump appears more invested in advancing his global tariff agenda than addressing escalating Russian aggression.

❗️For a few hours on Tuesday afternoon, it seemed just possible the Russians might be sending their planes to a base very near us.
A claim on a military intelligence site said the Russians were seeking to base several long range aircraft in Papua, a province of Indonesia, caused a massive flurry on the election trail.
It gave heart to Opposition Leader Peter Dutton that national security might be brought into play as an election issue.
But late Tuesday, the air went out of the balloon.
In a statement Defence Minister Richard Marles said, “I have spoken to my counterpart, HE Sjafrie Sjamsoeddin the Minister for Defence, and he has said to me in the clearest possible terms, reports of the prospect of Russian aircraft operating from Indonesia are simply not true”.

❗️The Prime Minister has responded angrily after reports Russian President Vladimir Putin wants to base “long range” aircraft in the Indonesian province of Papua – just 1380km from Australia.
“We obviously do not want to see Russian influence in our region,” Mr Albanese said.
“Our position is we stand with Ukraine.
“We regard Vladimir Putin as an authoritarian leader who has broken international law, who’s attacking the sovereignty of the nation of Ukraine.”
Mr Dutton said Mr Putin’s potential presence in Indonesia would be “deeply destabilising”.

❗️Lavrov on the conflict in Ukraine:
✔️ “Only military force can ultimately drive this scum out of power. And the very first instinct of those coup plotters who seized the presidential palace and administrative buildings in February 2014 was to announce the revocation of Russian language status. So the family traits are fully known.”
✔️ “The test of the fundamental decency of our Ukrainian neighbors is something we insist upon in any discussions with the West on the frameworks they promote in an attempt to facilitate a settlement. All these peacekeeping schemes drawn up by the Macrons and the Starmers are based on the idea of preserving at least a scrap of land under a Nazi, openly Russophobic regime designed to prepare for yet another war against Russia.”
✔️ “I asked a few days ago in Antalya: when you accept the inevitability of Ukraine continuing to exist within reduced borders, what kind of regime do you envision for this diminished Ukraine? Will you make them repeal the laws that ban the Russian language everywhere? Nowhere else does this happen. Israel, even in the harshest times of occupying Palestinian territories, never banned the Arabic language. But in Ukraine—they can, it's allowed for them.”
