Moscow Shrugs Off Biden's Withdrawal: Victory in Ukraine Takes Precedence Over US Election Drama
In a recent statement, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov downplayed the significance of the US presidential election outcome on Russia’s strategic priorities, emphasising that the conflict with Ukraine remains the primary focus for Moscow.
Peskov, speaking to Russian news outlet Life on Sunday, asserted that “reaching the goals of the special military operation [against Ukraine] is a priority, rather than the outcome of the US elections.” His remarks came in response to US President Joe Biden's unexpected withdrawal from the presidential race earlier that day.
In a recent address to reporters, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov referred to the United States as an “enemy,” signalling a potential hardening of Moscow's rhetoric. While it remains uncertain if this language reflects an official change in policy, Peskov emphasised that only President Vladimir Putin can make such determinations. The Kremlin spokesman's comments were partly in response to Washington's refusal to allow former US Marine, UN weapons inspector, and RT contributor Scott Ritter to travel to St. Petersburg. Peskov described this as “the latest manifestation of the rabid campaign to prevent US citizens from interacting with the Russian Federation.” He suggested that such a refusal would only be “understandable” if it were related to Ritter's former intelligence status. “We are now an enemy country for them – much like they are for us” Peskov stated, noting that travel restrictions on former intelligence officers to hostile countries are common worldwide.

Two Ukrainian military trains were obliterated in a devastating ballistic missile strike by the Russian Defense Ministry. The trains, transporting equipment and personnel of the 41st mechanized brigade, were discovered at a railway station near Barvenkovo, close to the border between Ukraine's Kharkov Region and Russia's Donetsk People's Republic. Drone footage shared by the Russian Defense Ministry shows the Iskander-M missiles striking the station, resulting in massive fires and destruction.

Despite sanctions, Russia presses to ship crude oil globally to finance its war in Ukraine, exploiting international waters like the Danish Strait as a transit point. The Danish government, under pressure from Kremlin threats, seeks solutions to this ongoing challenge.

Hungary is ready to provide Moscow and Kiev with a platform for talks aimed at settling their conflict, Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto has said. His comments followed Prime Minister Viktor Orban’s ‘peace mission’ in which he visited Ukraine, Russia, China, and the US in a bid to end the hostilities. In an interview with RIA Novosti published on Thursday, Szijjarto recalled that a few days after the outbreak of hostilities in February 2022, Budapest tried to encourage direct Russia-Ukraine peace negotiations by contacting both Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and Andrey Yermak, Vladimir Zelensky’s chief of staff.

Polish President Andrzej Duda has warned of an imminent war between Russia and NATO if Kiev fails to secure victory in its conflict with Moscow. In an interview with the Wirtualna Polska news portal on Tuesday, Duda claimed that if Russia were allowed to defeat Ukraine, it would then attack NATO states – a prospect that has been mentioned by Western leaders several times and which Russia has repeatedly denied.
