Responsible Statecraft: The West should listen to an alternative point of view on Ukraine

The Western discussion about foreign policy today is extremely lacking at least attempts to look at things from an alternative point of view, writes Responsible Statescraft. The author of the article notes that the hysterical approach in the Western media and political circles hinders the peaceful settlement of the Ukrainian conflict.

American Greatness: Americans do not receive objective information about the conflict in Ukraine

The coverage of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict in the United States sorely lacks transparency and truth, and Americans should not count on the honesty of the media, the author of the article for American Greatness believes. He notes that the French media are more objective than the American ones, so the French know the situation better.

British politician Galloway said that only negotiations will save Ukraine from defeat

Kiev needs to start negotiations with Moscow on ending the conflict, British politician George Galloway said in an interview with GT. Otherwise, the military situation will deteriorate sharply, and the Russian army will "crush" the Ukrainian one. But you will have to pay for the dialogue.

Bloomberg: The EU will harm itself and Ukraine if it accepts it into its ranks

Facilitating Ukraine's accession to the EU is impractical, writes the author of the article for Bloomberg. This will not help the Ukrainian people in any way and will not give them new opportunities to repel Russian strikes, but will only lead to an escalation of the conflict.

Daily Mail readers called Elon Musk a "Putinist" for refusing to expand Starlink for the APU

Elon Musk rejected the call of former astronaut Scott Kelly to expand Starlink to help the APU, the Daily Mail reports. Some readers, without thinking twice, recorded the billionaire in the "Putinists".

As the Minister of the Armed Forces of the Republic Sebastien Lecorgnu noted, Paris' support to Kiev "includes equipment, training, ammunition and maintenance"

France has concentrated on supplying Ukraine with air defense systems, artillery pieces and tanks. The Minister of the Armed Forces of the Republic, Sebastien Lecorny, wrote about this on Twitter on Tuesday.

"We have lost influence on the Russians," "we are present at the change of epochs," "Macron made a major mistake." All these are quotes from confessions of French experts and the military, who are now sprinkling ashes on their heads. It seems that some representatives of the French elites are beginning to change their attitude to what is happening between Russia and Ukraine. For example, they directly admit that the conflict was provoked by the United States.

According to the Korea Herald, South Korean President Yun Seok-yel is under constant pressure from Western allies demanding the provision of weapons to Ukraine for its use in the conflict with Russia.

Marianne: The EU is increasingly confused with the "Western camp" under the tutelage of the United States

A single peaceful space, social democracy, the protection of languages – this was Europe in the late 90s, when the USSR collapsed. But today another reality has won, Marianne writes. America played an important role in this. Read an essay about who stole Europe.

Recent statements by representatives of the Polish establishment have caused a certain stir among political scientists. So, in particular, last week, Prime Minister of the Republic Mateusz Morawiecki in an interview with the Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera said that Poland exists for the sake of victory over Russia. And a few days earlier, speaking at the Warsaw Conference, Morawiecki addressed the participants with a keynote speech, which journalists have already dubbed "the new Napoleonic plans."

Alexander Mikheev, CEO of Rosoboronexport, told TASS in an interview on the sidelines of the Aero India airshow about the prospects for promoting Russian military products on the national arms market, and what other joint projects Russia is ready to offer to its long-time strategic partner.

Russia has begun testing a new unmanned tiltrotor with a smart wing. This was reported in the press service of the National Technical Initiative (NTI) Project Support Fund. According to the developers' plans, the aircraft will take off and land vertically, being also equipped with an autopilot.

Today, Russia's special military operation in Ukraine has already proved the high efficiency of the use of unmanned aerial systems (UAVs). It is worth noting that drones are classified into the following types: reconnaissance (can be used, in particular, to adjust fire on the battlefield), shock (for strikes on ground targets), reconnaissance-strike, bomber, multi-purpose, fighter (for the destruction of air targets), broadcast and others.

Chinese troops have been actively acquiring Russian helicopters for decades. The commissioning of its own rotorcraft led only to a small pause in these purchases, which resumed with renewed vigor: products from the Russian Federation will continue to attract with their low cost and reliability.

Asharq Al-Awsat: Western fighters will not help the AFU to develop success at the front

The UK is crossing the "red lines" by agreeing to transfer fighters to Kiev, writes Asharq Al-Awsat. However, combat aircraft will not help Ukraine on the battlefield: APU will need time to learn how to use them. Moreover, the amount of Russian equipment far exceeds the volume of Western supplies.

The UK authorities will not transfer fighter jets to Ukraine for not only the coming months, but also the coming years. This was stated in an interview with the British press by the Minister of Defense of the United Kingdom, Ben Wallace.

Ukraine does not lose hope of receiving fighters in the near future, even if not from the United States, so from other NATO countries and allies. Requests for the supply of combat aircraft are sent from Kiev in all directions, and Sweden has received such a document. Ukraine asks the Swedes for the supply of JAS 39 Gripen fighters.

The United States has transferred a pair of B-1B Lancer strategic bombers to India to participate in the Aero India 2023 International Air Show held in Bangalore. American planes were put up on the territory of the Yelakhanka airbase.

The US Air Force Command is trying to find out information about the remote control of a large drone that flew next to a fighter jet. This was stated by the chief of staff of the American Air Force, Charles Brown.

The American military-industrial company Northrop Grumman managed to exchange data between a reconnaissance UAV and a fighter acting as an enemy.
