德国、波兰、英国、西班牙和意大利将于周三举行会谈,以表达对乌克兰的持续支持,包括
外交、财政、物资及武器援助。此会议恰逢俄罗斯入侵乌克兰三周年前夕,凸显西方国家对
乌克兰的承诺。
克里姆林宫周五表示,关于美国结束乌克兰战争的计画存在大量不准确报导,并呼吁外界耐
心等待。当被问及川普特使基思·凯洛格是否在寻求在和平谈判前促成停战时,普丁发言人
佩斯科夫回应称:“我们暂无额外消息,只能耐心等待。”
乌克兰则希望国际刑事法院(ICC)能继续起诉俄罗斯战犯,不受川普决定对该法院施加制
裁的影响。ICC目前正在调查俄军战争罪行,并于2023年对普丁发出逮捕令。乌克兰外交部
发言人季基表示,乌方将继续与ICC合作,以推进相关案件。
国际原子能机构(IAEA)负责人周五警告,对乌克兰扎波罗热核电厂的攻击有所增加。该机
构负责人拉斐尔·格罗西在莫斯科与俄罗斯国营核能公司Rosatom总裁会晤后表示,目前无法
确定攻击来自哪一方。俄军自2022年战争初期便控制该核电厂。
此外,波罗的海三国(爱沙尼亚、拉脱维亚、立陶宛)计划于周六与俄罗斯电网完全断开,
并于周日与欧盟电网同步。该决策加速于2014年俄罗斯吞并克里米亚后,近期疑似对海底电
缆的破坏进一步推动该计画。
Ukraine war briefing: North Korean troops back on frontline in Kursk, says Zelen
skyy
Germany, Poland, Britain, Spain and Italy would take part in the talks on Wednes
day, just ahead of the third anniversary of Russia’s invasion, the ministry sai
d. The meeting aimed to “show continued support to Ukraine”, whether diplomati
c, financial, material or related to weapons.
The Kremlin said on Friday there had been a lot of inaccurate reports on US plan
s for ending the Ukraine war and called for patience as speculation swirled arou
nd the timing of a possible meeting between presidents Vladimir Putin and Donald
Trump. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov was asked by media about a report that K
eith Kellogg, Trump’s envoy for Russia and Ukraine, was seeking to arrange a tr
uce even before talks on a peace settlement. “We have nothing to add yet … we
just need to be patient,” Peskov said.
Ukraine said it hoped the international criminal court (ICC) would continue its
work prosecuting Russian war criminals, despite Trump’s decision to impose sanc
tions on the court. The ICC is investigating allegations of Russian war crimes c
ommitted during its invasion of Ukraine and in 2023 issued an arrest warrant for
Putin. Ukrainian foreign ministry spokesperson Georgiy Tykhy said on Friday: “
We hope that they [sanctions] will not affect the court’s ability to achieve ju
stice for the victims of Russian aggression.” Ukraine continued to work with th
e ICC to move the cases forward, he added.
The International Atomic Energy Agency chief said on Friday that the number of a
ttacks on Ukraine’s Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant had increased, Russian state new
s agency Tass reported. Rafael Grossi was speaking after holding talks in Moscow
with Alexei Likhachev, head of Russian nuclear corporation Rosatom. Tass quoted
Grossi as saying it was not possible to determine which side was carrying out t
he attacks. Russian forces took control of the plant soon after the 2022 start o
f the war.
The Baltic states are set to sever ties with Russia’s power grid that date back
to the 1950s and instead integrate further with the European Union, as the susp
ected sabotage of subsea cables has spurred efforts to strengthen regional secur
ity. Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania will disconnect from the IPS/UPS joint networ
k early on Saturday and, subject to last-minute tests, will synchronise with the
EU’s grid on Sunday, Reuters reports. Plans to decouple from Russia’s grid, d
ebated for decades, gained momentum following Moscow’s annexation of Crimea in
2014.
