The sign from US-Russia talks that Moscow is in the driving seat
Thursday, 10 April 2025 () The latest US-Russia prisoner swap is a further sign of the thawing relations between Moscow and Washington, but I think it's also an indication of how slow things are moving.
The Trump administration has refused to support a G7 statement condemning Russia's missile strike on the Ukrainian city of Sumy. While Moscow claims the attack targeted military commanders, Kyiv says civilians were killed. Here's what we know.

U.S Trade War: Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov declared that Moscow won’t chase the U.S. for sanctions relief, despite bilateral trade plunging 95% from its peak a decade ago. Speaking to Kommersant, Lavrov criticized U.S. sanctions as destructive to globalization, saying they’ve only backfired on the West. He emphasized Russia’s pivot towards Asia and the Global South, and stressed economic independence. Former President Trump recently extended U.S. sanctions, citing national security concerns, while hinting at potential relief tied to the Black Sea Grain Initiative.

A Ukrainian drone assault on Russia’s Kursk killed an 85-year-old woman and injured nine others, triggering fires across apartment complexes and damaging infrastructure, including 11 ambulances. Over 20 explosions were reported as the overnight raid shook the border city, prompting evacuations. The attack follows Russia’s deadly strike on Sumy, Ukraine, and highlights escalating cross-border warfare. While both Kyiv and Moscow deny targeting civilians, the ongoing conflict has increasingly impacted residential zones. Ukrainian forces reportedly remain in parts of the Kursk region, despite Russian efforts to reclaim territory.
