NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte has sharply criticized Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky for his recent remarks against German Chancellor Olaf Scholz. In a bold response, Rutte called Zelensky’s attacks on Scholz “unfair,” stating that such criticism undermines diplomatic efforts. The tension arose after Zelensky publicly condemned Scholz for his phone call with Russian President Vladimir Putin and his refusal to supply Ukraine with advanced weaponry, such as Taurus cruise missiles. Rutte's statement reflects growing concern over the impact of internal disagreements on European unity and NATO’s collective strategy. Watch now to see Rutte’s strong rebuke of Zelensky’s actions.

The United Nations has officially reported over 12,300 civilian deaths and more than 27,800 injuries in Ukraine since the Russian invasion began in February 2022. The latest data reveals a sharp increase in casualties, with long-range Russian weapons and aerial bombings causing the majority of the deaths in 2024. This marks a significant escalation in the conflict as Russia intensifies its attacks. The UN also reported over 2,100 civilians killed or injured in just the past two months, alongside the displacement of tens of thousands from front-line areas.
