The Kremlin has dismissed fears of a renewed wave of violence in Russia’s North Caucasus region after a series of coordinated attacks in Dagestan left at least 20 dead and 26 injured. The attacks, which targeted churches, synagogues, and police checkpoints, echo the insurgent violence of the 1990s and 2000s. Authorities have concluded an anti-terror operation, killing five assailants and continuing to investigate the involvement of other suspects.

Estonian Prime Minister Kaja Kallas is set to become the EU's new foreign policy chief, advocating for a tougher stance against Russia. She controversially defines victory in Ukraine as breaking Russia into smaller states and supports pushing Russia back, maintaining sanctions, and integrating Ukraine into the EU and NATO. This signals a more confrontational EU approach, likely intensifying tensions with Moscow. Russia, meanwhile, remains committed to its military objectives in Ukraine, setting the stage for continued conflict.

foreign brands of electric vehicles

by Ukraine as long as it takes, Ursula von der Leyen, European Commission

paying for the Russian
damage [in Ukraine]

The decision comes as a major boost for
Ukraine as Kyiv fights through a grueling
2024 against a better-equipped Russia.
Finally, we see the first step of
fairness in making sure that the
aggressor, and not the good people
from countries that support us,
are paying for Ukraine’s victory, Kira Rudik, Opposition leader in
Kyiv’s parliament, the Verkhovna Rada,
via 'The Independent'.
We applaud this step.
We hope that it is only
the first of many more
steps. And we will use
this money wisely, Kira Rudik, Opposition leader in
Kyiv’s parliament, the Verkhovna Rada,
via 'The Independent'
