Volodymyr Zelenskiy praises troops for holding their positions in areas including Avdiivka, where fighting is ‘particularly hot’
Here are some of the latest images from the news wires.
Vladimir Putin, who is to visit China this week, said major powers prepared for war but as an attempt to ensure peace, adding that it was the US which was seeking to build a military alliance against China.
I don’t think these are healthy thoughts in the minds of healthy people, because to say that the US is preparing for war with Russia, well we are all preparing for war because we follow the ancient principle: if you want peace, get ready for war.
But we want peace.
Moreover, to fight with both Russia and China, it is nonsense – I don’t think it is serious. I think they are just scaring each other.
