BlogPosting | G7 members still export around $4.7 billion a month to Russia, new report says | https://www.cnbc.com/2023/05/11/ukraine-war-live-updates-latest-news-on-russia-and-the-war-in-ukraine.html#107239963-post | 2023-05-11T20:56:19+0000 | 2023-05-11T20:56:19+0000 | {'@type': 'WebPage', '@id': 'https://www.cnbc.com/2023/05/11/ukraine-war-live-updates-latest-news-on-russia-and-the-war-in-ukraine.html#107239963-post'} | G7 members export approximately $4.7 billion a month to Russia, which is about 43% of what they did prior to the Kremlin's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, according to a new report from the Atlantic Council. "After 15 months of conflict, the G7 have implemented nearly all the economic measures against Russia that garnered consensus within the group," writes Niels Graham , an assistant director for the Atlantic Council GeoEconomics Center. "The options they have left will be increasingly contentious and will impose higher costs on the G7 countries' domestic economies," he added.

Boeing's helicopter facility in Pennsylvania will be the primary contractor for the weapons system, which is expected to cost an estimated $8.5 billion. The proposed sale will improve Germany's heavy-lift capability and its armed forces will not have difficulty absorbing this equipment into its armed forces, according to a State Department release announcing the sale. "This proposed sale will support the foreign policy and national security of the United States by improving the security of a NATO Ally which is an important force for political and economic stability in Europe," the State Department added. — Amanda Macias | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107218704-1680284349633-gettyimages-1250101732-AFP_33CE8U7.jpeg?v=1683835341', 'width': '7916', 'height': '4948'} | null |

"I am distressed by the deteriorating state of Mr. Navalny's health and the apparent lack of satisfactory diagnosis and medical treatment," said Alice Edwards , the U.N. Special Rapporteur on torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment. She said Navalny's alleged placement in isolation on 11 separate occasions, amounting to 114 days in solitary confinement over a seven-month period would amount to torture if confirmed. "Mr. Navalny is reportedly suffering from serious ill-health, including chronic spinal disease and problems related to neurological damage," Edwards said. "He must immediately and continuously be provided with adequate care, including comprehensive medical check-ups, treatment and monitoring of his health situation in a civil hospital." — Amanda Macias | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107062322-16527906802022-05-17t074118z_1076331696_rc2u8u998eo9_rtrmadp_0_russia-politics-navalny.jpeg?v=1691163638', 'width': '3200', 'height': '2057'} | null |

The Joint Coordination Center said the vessels are carrying a combined total of approximately 600,000 metric tonnes of agricultural goods. Before Moscow's full-scale invasion of its ex-Soviet neighbor last year, Ukraine and Russia accounted for almost a quarter of global grain exports, until those shipments came to a severe halt for nearly six months. The Black Sea Grain Initiative , a deal brokered in July among Ukraine, Russia, Turkey and the United Nations, eased Russia's naval blockade and reopened three key Ukrainian ports. The deal also provides for the exports of fertilizer, including ammonia, though there have been no such exports thus far. Russia has said that it is not pleased with the Black Sea Grain Initiative and is not in favor of extending the current deal this month. — Amanda Macias | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107144644-1667390249333-gettyimages-1438334601-dji_0222_374d870a-6a62-4062-a78a-b1b2fb0d71e3.jpeg?v=1692114076', 'width': '5235', 'height': '3487'} | null |

The vessels are destined for Egypt and Spain. The U.N.-backed humanitarian sea corridor, which was brokered in July, has allowed more than 900 ships carrying more than 29 million metric tons of agricultural products to depart Ukrainian war-weary ports. Russia has previously said that it would not recognize an extension of the deal, which could expire in mid-May. Ukraine's navy has previously said that Russia is intentionally slowing down the movement of ships from Ukrainian ports in an effort to weaponize food. — Amanda Macias | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107145559-1667483739677-gettyimages-1228288673-111767309_usw.jpeg?v=1693485643', 'width': '5945', 'height': '3963'} | null |

"The two sides had candid, substantive, and constructive discussions on key issues in the U.S.-China bilateral relationship, global and regional security issues, Russia's war against Ukraine, and cross-Strait issues, among other topics," the White House said Thursday in a readout of the meeting between Biden's national security advisor, Jake Sullivan, and China's top diplomat, Wang Yi. The White House National Security Council and the State Department did not respond to CNBC's requests for more details on the meeting. Sullivan has previously reiterated deep U.S. concerns about China's alignment with Russia and the possibility that the world's second-largest economy might attempt to help Moscow blunt sanctions. In the months following Russia's invasion of its ex-Soviet neighbor, Washington and its allies have imposed rounds of coordinated sanctions vaulting Russia past Iran and North Korea as the world's most-sanctioned country.

Messages of grief poured in after Soldin died in Ukraine earlier this week, and many people paid tribute to his bravery in covering Europe's worst conflict since World War II. Soldin was the French news agency's Ukraine video coordinator. "His death is a terrible reminder of the risks and dangers faced by journalists every day covering the conflict in Ukraine," AFP chairman Fabrice Fries said when his death was announced. Soldin was killed when an AFP team came under fire by Grad rockets while they were with a group of Ukrainian soldiers near Bakhmut, the epicenter of the war for months. — Michele Luhn, Adam Jeffery and AFP | Getty Images | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107239713-1683814700999-gettyimages-1253768565-AFP_33EU8WQ.jpeg?v=1683817155', 'width': '5624', 'height': '3749'} | null |

"When the G-7 finance ministers gathered together last spring, Russia's full-scale war against Ukraine was less than three months old. Now, the war is approaching its 450th day," Yellen said during remarks in Japan. Yellen said coordinated global sanctions have "degraded Russia's military-industrial complex and helped reduce the revenues that Russia can use to fund its war." "This year, a central piece of our strategy is to take further actions to disrupt Russia's attempts to evade our sanctions," she said, adding that allies should continue to apply pressure on companies facilitating sanctions evasion and shut down "specific channel used by Russia to equip and fund its military." — Amanda Macias | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107239640-1683807754504-gettyimages-1253750397-JAPAN_G-7_FINMIN.jpeg?v=1683813079', 'width': '3972', 'height': '2648'} | null |

The acrimony between the two sides descended into openly hostile criticism this week, with mutual accusations of treachery this week. The head of Russia's mercenary Wagner Group could barely contain his rage on Tuesday when he said promised supplies of ammunition to his fighters in Bakhmut had not arrived. The Kremlin appeared to comment on tensions Wednesday, saying "emotions are boiling over" in Bakhmut.

Nikita Tushkanov, 29, made the posts last October after the bombing of the Kerch bridge linking Russia to annexed Crimea, a major attack that Moscow blamed on Ukraine. Tushkanov called the bombing "a birthday present for Putler" - a pejorative term linking the Russian president to Adolf Hitler. When Russia responded with rocket strikes against Ukrainian cities, he called it "the revenge of Putin's fascism for the Kerch bridge." His fiancee Alexandra Kochanova told Reuters his court case had lasted "not more than 10 minutes" in front of military judges, and that he would appeal. Russia introduced new censorship laws after launching its war on Ukraine last year, prescribing long prison sentences for "discrediting" the armed forces or spreading false information about them. Asked why Tushkanov had written the posts, Kochanova said he believed "it was necessary to write, speak, and show that he didn't agree. He understood the risks, but he still decided that this was more important, that these were his principles". Officers of Russia's FSB security service arrested Tushkanov at his home in the city of Syktyvkar on Dec. 7, independent news outlet Mediazona reported. He was subsequently added to a federal database of "terrorists and extremists." According to Mediazona, Tushkanov was fired in 2021 from his job as a history teacher in a small town in the northern Urals for staging a one-man picket in support of jailed opposition leader Alexei Navalny. He had twice been fined for anti-war posts since Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine last year, according to court documents, although one of the fines was dropped. According to human rights network OVD-Info, 19,673 people have been detained for protesting against Russia's war in Ukraine since it invaded on Feb. 24 last year, and criminal cases have been launched against more than 550. — Reuters | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107239629-1683806897173-gettyimages-1247669840-AFP_33AF4RR.jpeg?v=1687157867', 'width': '4979', 'height': '3215'} | null |

In response to a Russian media question about Ukraine's anticipated counteroffensive, Yevgeny Prigozhin said that Ukrainian operations had already been "unfortunately, partially successful," in comments reported and translated by Reuters. Earlier today, Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy told Western media that the country needed more time, and more foreign military aid to arrive before the counteroffensive could properly begin , but Prigozhin said Zelenskyy was "being deceptive." On Wednesday, however, the head of Ukraine's ground forces said Russian fighters had been pushed back from parts of the frontline in Bakhmut, by 2km (1.2 miles) in places. Earlier this week, Prigozhin claimed that Russia's 72nd Separate Motor-rifle Brigade had abandoned positions on the southwestern outskirts of Bakhmut although Moscow has not commented on the report.

CNN first reported the decision, citing multiple senior Western officials. It said Britain had received assurances from the Ukrainian government that these missiles would be used only within Ukrainian sovereign territory and not inside Russia. Britain's defence minister Ben Wallace and the foreign minister James Cleverly have been in the United States for talks on supporting Ukraine in recent weeks. The Ministry of Defence in London declined to comment. Britain and other Western countries have scaled up their military aid for Ukraine this year, with Britain saying in January it would send 14 of its main Challenger 2 battle tanks to Ukraine, a pledge that was followed by other nations including the United States and Germany. Last week, a British-led group of European countries asked companies for expressions of interest to supply Ukraine with missiles with a range of up to 300 km (190 miles), but Britain said on Tuesday that no final decision had been taken on supplying the weapons. Storm Shadow, manufactured by European missile maker MBDA, is an air-launched long range missile, designed for attacks against high value targets such as hardened bunkers and key infrastructure, according to the company's website. They have a range of more than 250 kilometers (155.34 miles), according to the manufacturer. – Reuters | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107239563-1683800134464-gettyimages-1000585364-AFP_17Q9UF.jpeg?v=1683800347', 'width': '5226', 'height': '3467'} | null |

It's likely that up to 10,000 convicts signed up in April alone, the ministry noted in its latest intelligence update on Twitter Wednesday. Russian prisoners have been a key pool of recruits for the Wagner Group private military company's operations in Ukraine since last summer, but the group lost access to recruiting from Russia's penal system, likely when its public feud with the defense ministry was escalating, the U.K. said. Russia's latest prisoner recruitment campaign is part of a broader, intense effort by the Russian military to bolster its numbers, the U.K. said, "while attempting to avoid implementing new mandatory mobilisation, which would be very unpopular with the Russian public." — Holly Ellyatt | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107144298-1667330307571-gettyimages-1240105904-maximilian-clarke_23_of_28.jpeg?v=1689026569', 'width': '4000', 'height': '2667'} | null |

BlogPosting | Kremlin acknowledges 'emotions are boiling over' in Bakhmut | https://www.cnbc.com/2023/05/11/ukraine-war-live-updates-latest-news-on-russia-and-the-war-in-ukraine.html#107239524-post | 2023-05-11T07:36:36+0000 | 2023-05-11T07:36:36+0000 | {'@type': 'WebPage', '@id': 'https://www.cnbc.com/2023/05/11/ukraine-war-live-updates-latest-news-on-russia-and-the-war-in-ukraine.html#107239524-post'} | The Kremlin's spokesperson acknowledged that the "special military operation" in Ukraine is complex, particularly in Bakhmut, but said he had no doubt that the besieged Donetsk town "will be captured and will be kept under control." "The special military operation continues. It is a very, very difficult operation and of course certain goals have been achieved in a year," Dmitry Peskov told a Bosnian Serb television channel ATV on Wednesday in comments translated by Google. The commander of Ukraine's ground forces claimed Wednesday that Russian forces had been pushed back as much as 1.2 miles on certain parts of the front line around Bakhmut. Military analysts agree that Ukraine has "conducted successful limited counterattacks around Bakhmut" in recent days. Even Yevgeny Prigozhin, the head of Russia's Wagner Group, a private military company whose mercenary fighters are engaged in intense fighting in Bakhmut, said earlier this week that Russia's 72nd Separate Motor-rifle Brigade had abandoned positions on the southwestern outskirts of the town as he continued to plead for more ammunition for his troops. Prigozhin has repeatedly complained his fighters weren't receiving adequate support from Russia's defense ministry, with whom he has a strained relationship, and has threatened to pull his troops out of the area. Prigozhin has made numerous statements criticizing the ministry and even appeared to criticize Russian President Vladimir Putin the other day, a rare instance of a high-profile Russian doing so. Commenting on the situation in Bakhmut, Peskov said "there are very heavy offensive operations going on there and it is a very, very powerfully fortified area." "Emotions are boiling over there. I will not mention anyone's last name, but I will say that, regardless of what they say and what statements they make, this is about the armed forces of the Russian Federation. These are all Russian forces. They are all the same forces, which always follow the same goal. We have no doubt that Artyomovsk [Russia's name for Bakhmut] will be brought under control, that it will be determined later," he said. – Holly Ellyatt | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107228388-1681973308935-gettyimages-1251806922-AA_14042023_1152034.jpeg?v=1684108855', 'width': '594', 'height': '396'} | null |

The embattled town in the eastern Donetsk region of Ukraine has been at the center of fighting between Ukrainian and Russian forces, many of whom are mercenary fighters in the Wagner Group, for many months. "Thanks to the well-thought-out defense in Bakhmut direction, we are getting the results of the efficient actions of our units," Colonel-General Oleksandr Syrskyi, the commander of Ukraine's ground forces, posted on Telegram . "Among other things, we carry out effective counterattacks. In some areas of the front, the enemy could not withstand the onslaught of the Ukrainian defenders and retreated to a distance of up to two kilometers," he added. Syrskyi said the competence of Ukrainian fighters "exhausted" mercenary fighters of the Wagner Group and "forced them to be replaced in certain directions by less well-prepared units of the Russian regular troops, who were defeated and left." The fight to capture (and defend) Bakhmut has been taking place for nine months, with the town reduced to ruins. Military analysts have been impressed by the fact that Ukraine has held on to the town despite semi-encirclement by Russian forces and the logistical challenges of getting supplies to its fighters. "Despite the significant concentration of troops and the loud statements by Russian war criminals about their intention to capture Bakhmut by May 9, the enemy has been still unable to capture the Ukrainian city," Syrskyi said. "Our defense forces reliably hold the front and prevent the enemy from advancing. The battle for Bakhmut continues," he added. Syrskyi praised "the work of the 3rd Separate Assault Brigade which dealt a powerful blow to the enemy in battle and showed the strength of the Ukrainian army." — Holly Ellyatt | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107239601-1683805043096-gettyimages-1252572180-AFP_33ED2FV.jpeg?v=1683805093', 'width': 4000, 'height': 2667} | null |

The move proved Russia's "inability to ensure the operation of the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, as there is now a catastrophic lack of skilled personnel," Energoatom said. The company said Russia planned to evacuate just over 3,000 people, including 2,700 who had signed contracts with the Russian-installed company in de facto control of the plant, Rosatom. Energoatom said that information from Ukraine's armed forces suggested "some families of the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power professionals have already been taken from Enerhodar to the Rostov region of the Russian Federation." Energoatom said that it was "taking all possible measures to form the necessary number of professionals capable of ensuring the safe operation of the plant." Such a team will be formed on a rotating basis from ZNPP employees who are currently in the territory controlled by Ukraine, as well as specialists from other nuclear plants, it said. Concerns over ZNPP's fate have been rife since Russian forces started evacuating areas near the plant, Europe's largest nuclear power station. The plant has often found itself at the center of fighting, with both Ukrainian and Russian forces accusing each other of shelling near it, creating the potential for a nuclear disaster. Mariano Grossi, the director general of the International Atomic Energy Agency, said last week that following reports of Russian evacuations, "the general situation in the area near the Zaporizhzhya Nuclear Power Plant is becoming increasingly unpredictable and potentially dangerous." "I'm extremely concerned about the very real nuclear safety and security risks facing the plant. We must act now to prevent the threat of a severe nuclear accident and its associated consequences for the population and the environment. This major nuclear facility must be protected." Energoatom has repeatedly called for the de-occupation of the ZNPP. It did so again today, and urged "the expulsion of the Russians from Enerhodar and the transfer of control over the power plant to its legitimate Ukrainian operator, Energoatom," saying this was "the only way to end the Russian mess at the ZNPP and guarantee its future safety." — Holly Ellyatt | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107217163-1680105327036-gettyimages-1249892275-AFP_33CA6TQ.jpeg?v=1683712927', 'width': '5055', 'height': '3370'} | null |

The proposed sanctions would target Chinese and Iranian firms and allow export curbs on other countries for breaking existing trade restrictions, Reuters reported. The new sanctions would highlight that oil tankers are not allowed to offload in the high seas or arrive in ports with their GPS trackers off, an attempt to push back against Group of Seven nations' Russian oil reading restrictions, according to Reuters' sources. The EU also would stop transit via Russia of more of its exports, including advanced tech products and aircraft parts, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said in the Reuters report. "If we see that goods are going from the European Union to third countries and then end up in Russia, we could propose to the member states to sanction those goods' export. This tool will be a last resort and it will be used cautiously," she said. — Melodie Warner | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107238102-1683635228392-gettyimages-1253312034-UKRAINE_LEYEN.jpeg?v=1683731213', 'width': '4000', 'height': '2667'} | null |

"Today, early in the morning, at a Voronezh military facility, an attempted attack by two enemy UAVs was intercepted. As a result of response actions, one of them deviated from its course and fell while another one was eliminated by fire," Gusev said on Telegram , in comments translated by Russian news agency Tass. Guzev said additional security measures would be implemented in the Voronezh region. "Interaction with law enforcement and the military command continues ... I am personally monitoring the situation," Gusev added. CNBC was unable to verify the claims in the post and Ukraine has not commented on the claims. Russia has recently experienced a series of alleged attacks on home soil.

"As the G-7 [chair], Prime Minister Kishida will directly convey our solidarity and unwavering support for Ukraine," a statement from the ministry said. Kishida will visit Poland on Wednesday after his trip and return to Japan on Thursday, the ministry said. Japan's prime minister left India after meeting his counterpart there, Narendra Modi. The two leaders discussed stronger ties between their countries — both of them democracies — in the face of rising assertiveness from China in the Indo-Pacific region. Last month, Ukraine's ambassador to Japan told CNBC he was optimistic Kishida would visit Ukraine before hosting the G-7 Summit in Hiroshima in May. – Jihye Lee | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107212034-1679369746005-gettyimages-1247431024-AFP_339X4AW.jpeg?v=1680255380', 'width': 7697, 'height': 5132} | null |

The meeting was hosted by U.K. Deputy Prime Minister Dominic Raab and the Netherlands Minister for Justice and Security Dilan Yesilgoz-Zegerius. Ahead of the meeting, the U.K. proposed funding to offer mental health care for witnesses of war crimes, send U.K. experts to train International Criminal Court investigators and help those ICC workers gather evidence of potential crimes.

"I hope he did get to see the damage and the destruction that his forces did to that city," Kirby said at the White House press briefing. "I hope he got to see what his troops, his war and his military did to that city." Kirby said the surprise visit by Putin is another example of Russia's failing war in Ukraine. Putin traveled to the port city in southern Ukraine by helicopter before he was seen driving and inspecting parts of the city and talking to local residents. On Saturday, he reportedly visited Crimea, the Ukrainian peninsula annexed by Russia in 2014. "It's clear he knows, he has to know, how badly he's doing inside Ukraine," Kirby said, noting more than half of the land taken by Russia at the beginning of the war has been reclaimed by Ukrainian forces. — Emma Kinery | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107212034-1679369746005-gettyimages-1247431024-AFP_339X4AW.jpeg?v=1680255380', 'width': 7697, 'height': 5132} | null |

"It's a marriage of convenience rather than of affection," Kirby said of Putin and Xi. Xi dined with Putin at the Kremlin on Monday as part of a three-day visit to Moscow. Beijing has yet to condemn Russia's invasion of Ukraine, but has not sent Russia military support, either.

He said a 2 billion euro EU plan to bolster Ukraine's ammunition stores will help with "both immediate supply and production of ammunition," according to an NBC translation of his Telegram post.

"We took notice of the statements of representatives of the U.S. administration on the alleged justification of the decision of the International Criminal Court to issue warrants of the arrest for President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin and Commissioner for Children's Rights Maria Lvova-Belova," the Russian Embassy in Washington, D.C., said in a statement to CNBC. "For the sake of its own geopolitical interests Washington supports the unprecedented legal bacchanalia unleashed by the ICC, knowing full well that Russia, like the United States, does not recognize the jurisdiction of the ICC," the statement added. The Russian Embassy accused the U.S. of hypocrisy for resisting ICC efforts to prosecute alleged war crimes committed in Afghanistan. Russia in 2000 signed the Rome Statute , which established the ICC and its jurisdiction. But it did not ratify the agreement to become a member. The U.S. also did not ratify the statute. — Amanda Macias | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107211498-16793197202023-03-20t133847z_70725822_rc2pxz9llg3a_rtrmadp_0_russia-putin-security.jpeg?v=1695719875', 'width': '2632', 'height': '1776'} | null |

U.S. Ambassador-at-Large for Global Criminal Justice Beth Van Schaack told reporters at the State Department that the Biden administration was "looking for ways to support" Ukraine's investigations. Van Schaack said that Ukraine's Prosecutor General Andriy Kostin has primary jurisdiction over all of the war crimes and other atrocities being committed in his country. She added that sharing U.S. evidence "is still under consideration."

The scheduled leadership change comes as the International Criminal Court in The Hague, Netherlands issued an arrest warrant for Russian President Vladimir Putin for alleged crimes committed in Ukraine.

Two ships are destined for China and are carrying corn and barley. One more ship is headed to Spain and is carrying corn. The Black Sea Grain Initiative , a deal brokered in July among Ukraine, Russia, Turkey and the United Nations, eased Russia's naval blockade and saw three key Ukrainian ports reopen. The deal was extended for over the weekend. Ukraine and the UN pushed for a 120-day extension, but Russia agreed to only 60 days. So far, more than 700 ships have sailed from Ukrainian ports.

As the two leaders met for an informal meeting before talks begin behind closed doors, Putin called Xi his "dear friend" as he welcomed him to Russia. He also praised China's growth under Xi's leadership, saying Russia was "slightly envious" of China's swift development, in comments reported by Reuters. Putin said China had taken a "balanced approach" to the international situation and said the leaders would discuss recent suggestions by China to find a peaceful solution to the war in Ukraine. For his part, President Xi responded that Putin was also his "dear friend" and said he was pleased to be in Moscow for talks. — Holly Ellyatt | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107211524-1679321894653-AP23079505661478.jpg?v=1679322177', 'width': '2822', 'height': '1695'} | null |

The move was a symbolic gesture of defiance, three days after the ICC accused Putin and his children's commissioner Maria Lvova-Belova of the war crime of deporting children from Ukraine to Russia. The state Investigative Committee said there were no grounds for criminal liability on Putin's part, and heads of state enjoyed absolute immunity under a 1973 U.N. convention. The ICC prosecutor's actions showed signs of being crimes under Russian law, the committee said, including knowingly accusing an innocent person of a crime. The prosecutor and judges were also suspected of "preparing an attack on a representative of a foreign state enjoying international protection, in order to complicate international relations". The Kremlin has called the issuing of the warrant outrageous but legally void, as Russia is not a signatory to the treaty that created the ICC. On Monday it said the court's move was a sign of the "clear hostility" that exists against Russia and against Putin personally. The ICC officials targeted in the Russian investigation are prosecutor Karim Khan and judges Tomoko Akane, Rosario Salvatore Aitala and Sergio Gerardo Ugalde Godinez. "The criminal prosecution is obviously illegal, since there are no grounds for criminal liability," the Russian statement said. The ICC's move obliges the court's 123 member states to arrest Putin and transfer him to The Hague for trial if he sets foot on their territory. Putin is unlikely to take that risk and Russia does not extradite its citizens, but the rare move against a serving president was an important symbolic step to pin responsibility on him for the consequences of his invasion of Ukraine. Ukraine says more than 16,000 children have been illegally transferred to Russia or Russian-occupied territories since the war started nearly 13 months ago. Russia has publicly said it has brought thousands of Ukrainian children to Russia in what it presents as a humanitarian campaign to protect orphans and abandoned children in the conflict zone. — Reuters | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107203269-1677900844130-gettyimages-1247581777-AFP_33AB6HU.jpeg?v=1683226922', 'width': '4200', 'height': '2799'} | null |

The Office of the U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights said the death toll in Ukraine is likely higher, because the armed conflict can delay fatality reports. The international organization said most of the civilian casualties recorded were caused by the use of explosive weapons with a wide impact area, including shelling from heavy artillery and multiple launch rocket systems, as well as missiles and airstrikes. — Amanda Macias | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107204471-1678209367180-gettyimages-1471915274-0g5a6062_htqduccy.jpeg?v=1679317855', 'width': '6000', 'height': '4000'} | null |

During a call with reporters, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said the two leaders would discuss themes in a peace plan for Ukraine proposed by Beijing last month. "One way or another, the topics that figured in this plan will inevitably be touched upon during the exchange of views on Ukraine" between Putin and Xi, Peskov said. "But here, of course, exhaustive clarifications will be given by President Putin, so that President Xi can get a first-hand view of the current moment from the Russian side." China's 12-point paper, which called for dialogue between the two sides, contained no roadmap for how to end the war, now in its 13th month. Ukraine cautiously welcomed it but the United States was dismissive, given China's refusal to condemn Russia's invasion. Xi was due to arrive in Moscow around 1030 London time and to hold one-to-one "informal" talks with Putin on Monday afternoon, followed by dinner. Formal talks are scheduled for Tuesday. Asked if China could become an intermediary between Moscow and Washington, Peskov declined to answer directly. "For the time being, we see a continuing line on preventing any slowdown in hostilities. Washington, the State Department and the U.S. National Security Council are talking about this openly and officially," he said. Moscow accuses the United States and other Western countries of pouring weapons into Ukraine in order to inflict a "strategic defeat" on Russia. Washington and its allies say they are arming Ukraine to help it defend against an unprovoked Russian invasion and imperial-style land grab. "The United States is sticking to its position, which is aimed at further provoking the conflict, preventing any decrease in the intensity of hostilities and pumping weapons into Ukraine," Peskov said. — Reuters | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107200846-16775912592023-02-28t133345z_1555506363_rc2dkz9vh3jq_rtrmadp_0_ukraine-crisis-putin-security.jpeg?v=1679306884', 'width': '3500', 'height': '2249'} | null |

"The Russian operation has largely been carried out by the 1st Army Corps of the Donetsk People's Republic; local personnel who will know the terrain well. Avdiivka has been on the front line of the Donbas conflict since 2014; the city is now largely destroyed," the ministry noted in an intelligence update on Twitter Monday. "The sprawling Avdiivka Coke Plant complex is likely to be seen as particularly defendable key terrain as the battle progresses," it added. The ministry noted that, tactically, the situation is similar to that in the larger town of Bakhmut, farther north, where intense fighting has been raging for months.

BlogPosting | Russia's spring offensive appears to be sputtering out, says ISW | https://www.cnbc.com/2023/03/20/ukraine-war-live-updates-latest-news-on-russia-and-the-war-in-ukraine.html#107211281-post | 2023-03-20T07:51:41+0000 | 2023-03-20T07:51:41+0000 | {'@type': 'WebPage', '@id': 'https://www.cnbc.com/2023/03/20/ukraine-war-live-updates-latest-news-on-russia-and-the-war-in-ukraine.html#107211281-post'} | Russia's much-anticipated spring offensive against Ukraine has likely reached its high-water mark, leaving Ukraine's defenders "well positioned to regain the initiative and launch counteroffensives," according to research released late Sunday. The Washington-based Institute for the Study of War said in a new assessment that Russia's 2023 attacks have yielded few gains and left Moscow planners desperate to reconstitute hard-hit military units. The failures have come about despite the 300,000 soldiers mobilized by Russia late last year explicitly for the spring offensive. "If 300,000 Russian soldiers have been unable to give Russia a decisive offensive edge in Ukraine it is highly unlikely that the commitment of additional forces in future mobilization waves will produce a dramatically different outcome this year," the research said. CNBC is unable to independently verify ISW's assessment, though it aligns with others' analysis including that of Ukrainian commanders. Russia's Ministry of Defense did not immediately respond to a CNBC request for comment. ISW is a research firm whose board members are mostly retired U.S. military personnel, diplomats and political leaders. —Ted Kemp | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107211290-1679297797391-gettyimages-1246182061-AFP_336X8BP.jpeg?v=1679569524', 'width': '2920', 'height': '2000'} | null |

Lauding Russia-China relations in an article released by several Russian and Chinese news agencies ahead of the visit, Xi said "both countries uphold an independent foreign policy and see our relationship as a high priority in our diplomacy." "Russia was the first country I visited after I was elected President 10 years ago. Over the past decade, I have made eight visits to Russia. I came each time with high expectations and returned with fruitful results, opening a new chapter for China-Russia relations together with President Putin," Xi said. Xi added that there was a "clear historical logic and strong internal driving force for the growth of China-Russia relations" that had come a long way in the last decade. Meanwhile, Putin said in an article that he considers President Xi a "good old friend" with whom he has developed the "warmest relations." Putin said the "significant" visit by Xi "reaffirms the special nature of the Russian-Chinese partnership, which has always been built on mutual trust, respect for each other's sovereignty and interests," in comments published on the Kremlin's website and in the Chinese People's Daily newspaper. The leaders are expected to discuss a deepening of Sino-Russian political and economic cooperation during the visit, with a number of unspecified bilateral agreements expected to be signed. Analysts at the Institute for the Study of War said ahead of the meeting that the presidents are also "likely to discuss sanctions evasion schemes and Chinese interest in mediating a negotiated settlement to the war in Ukraine." China has called for a cease-fire to the war in Ukraine but has refused to condemn Moscow's unprovoked invasion. — Holly Ellyatt | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/105951795-1559798692588gettyimages-1148266327.jpeg?v=1679398603', 'width': '3500', 'height': '2567'} | null |

In a carefully choreographed visit, Putin traveled to the port city in southern Ukraine by helicopter before he was seen driving and inspecting parts of the city and talking to local residents. On Saturday, he had reportedly visited Crimea, the Ukrainian peninsula annexed by Russia in 2014. While there, Russia's Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin was seen reporting to Putin on construction work in the city, with the Kremlin issuing a statement noting that Putin was informed on "the construction of new residential microdistricts, social and educational facilities, housing and communal service infrastructure, and medical institutions." The visit has been seen as a show of defiance by the Kremlin after the International Criminal Court issued on Friday an international arrest warrant for the Russian president over alleged war crimes carried out during the invasion of Ukraine. Kyiv accuses Moscow of carrying out a number of war crimes in Mariupol, including the bombing of a theater in which hundreds of civilians were sheltering, as well as the shelling of a maternity hospital. Russia claimed the theater had been bombed by Ukraine's Azov battalion and said the hospital was being used as by Azov fighters as a base, despite evidence to the contrary. After a prolonged and bloody siege between Russian forces and fighters from the Azov battalion, who had holed themselves up in the Azovstal steelworks in Mariupol, Ukraine's forces finally surrendered and Russia declared it had complete control of the city in May. Mykhaylo Podolyak, an aide to Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, slammed Putin's surprise trip to Mariupol on Twitter, saying the president had come to "admire the ruins of the city" and that the visit showed "cynicism and a lack of remorse." — Holly Ellyatt | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107211280-1679295071316-gettyimages-1248598790-AFP_33BM3Z6.jpeg?v=1679315429', 'width': '1920', 'height': '1080'} | null |

China has become Russia's most important ally in recent years, but Beijing has tried to avoid any overt show of support for Moscow's ongoing war in Ukraine or — "special military operation" — as Putin calls it, instead calling for a cease-fire and offering to broker a peace deal. Xi's visit to Moscow is nonetheless a political coup for Putin, who has looked increasingly isolated on the global stage following the invasion of Ukraine that has not been as simple as Moscow is believed to have expected it to be. In the meantime, international sanctions have been piled on Russia, forcing it to look further afield to its erstwhile trading partners in Asia for business. And last Friday, the International Criminal Court issued an arrest warrant for Putin over alleged war crimes committed during the invasion of Ukraine. — Holly Ellyatt | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107210496-1679036769886-gettyimages-1243271340-AFP_32JH33C.jpeg?v=1684132299', 'width': '4192', 'height': '2931'} | null |

Biden was seeking a "battlefield perspective" from Zelenskyy in their meeting, according to National Security Council spokesman John Kirby. Speaking in the Oval Office before the meeting, Zelenskyy thanked the United States, saying the countries are "really truly allies." He said he intended to talk about weapons systems with Biden, "with a special emphasis on air defense." "I am in Washington to strengthen Ukraine's position to defend our children, our families, our homes, freedom and democracy in the world," Zelenskyy said. Biden called Ukraine a "partner" and said he was working with other G7 allies to formalize a commitment to the country's long-term security. Biden announced a $325 million military aid package during the meeting with Zelenskyy, NBC News reported. — Emma Kinery and Scott Mlyn | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107304861-1695333230884-zelske.jpg?v=1695334863', 'width': '3000', 'height': '2000'} | null |

The vessel, named Resilient Africa and carrying a Palau flag, left Ukraine's Chornomorsk port on Tuesday carrying 3,000 tons of wheat and bound for Israel, Ukrainian authorities said. The journey represents the first successful Black Sea trip for a vessel coming from Ukraine since Russia pulled out of the UN-brokered Black Sea grain initiative in July, under which it had previously allowed ships transporting grain for export to leave Ukraine safely. After withdrawing from the deal, citing displeasure with what it deemed to be unfairness toward Russian exporters, Moscow began bombing Ukraine's ports and grain storage facilities. Ukraine is currently testing out a new alternative sea route in waters controlled by NATO members Romania and Bulgaria. Ukraine is one of the world's largest producers of grain, most of which was exported internationally before Russia's full-scale invasion. — Natasha Turak | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107295361-1693726664338-gettyimages-1637532152-AFP_33U4492.jpeg?v=1695322420', 'width': '2592', 'height': '1728'} | null |

The measure has bipartisan support in the Senate. But it has been held up in the House of Representatives, where some members, like Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., have said they will not support any additional aid. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif. is in a difficult position on the issue of Ukraine due to a slim GOP majority in the House, which gives individual Republican lawmakers leverage to pressure him to accede to their demands. Conservatives balked at McCarthy's proposal last week to pair Ukraine aid with additional border funding. McCarthy agreed to meet with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy privately during the latter's visit to Washington on Thursday, but did not offer a forum for him to appeal to the full House of Representatives as Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y. did in the upper chamber.

Slovakia, Poland and Hungary imposed national restrictions on Ukrainian grain imports last week after the European Union executive decided not to extend its ban on imports into those countries and fellow bloc members Bulgaria and Romania. The countries have argued that cheap Ukrainian agricultural goods meant mainly to transit further west and to ports, get sold locally, harming their own farmers. The EU, which imposed its ban in May, let it expire on Friday after Ukraine vowed to tighten controls. For much of the last year, some 60% of grain from Ukraine, one of the world's biggest exporters, has transited through the five eastern EU countries. The row escalated as Ukraine, which turned to land routes to the west after a de facto Russian blockade of its Black Sea ports, filed a complaint with the World Trade Organization (WTO) over the bans and threatened retaliatory import restrictions.

Power cuts were reported in five Ukrainian regions in the west, center and east, reviving memories of multiple air strikes on critical infrastructure last winter that caused sweeping outages for millions during the bitter cold. Officials said at least 18 people were wounded in the air strikes, including a nine-year-old girl, and a regional governor said two people were killed in separate overnight Russian shelling. "Winter is coming. Tonight (Russia) renews missile attacks on Ukrainian energy infrastructure," lawmaker Andrii Osadchuk wrote on platform X. Russia's Defense Ministry said in a statement its attack hit military industry facilities, radio intelligence installations and centers for the training of sabotage groups.

"There was a single sentence that summed it all up, and I'm quoting him verbatim, Mr. Zelenskyy said: 'If we don't get the aid we will lose the war'," Schumer said. His comments came after Zelenskyy addressed the Senate behind closed doors in the Capitol building's historic Old Senate Chamber. Senator Chris Murphy posted descriptions of the meeting on social media platform X, saying that the Ukrainian leader received several standing ovations. Zelenskyy told reporters after the meeting, "We had great dialogue."

The Strategic Communications Directorate of Ukraine's armed forces said on Telegram Thursday that "on the night of September 21, the defense forces of Ukraine struck the military airfield of the occupiers near the city of Saky in temporarily occupied Crimea." Earlier Thursday, a source at Ukraine's security service gave NBC more detail about the attack, saying the Security Service of Ukraine and navy launched a strike at the Saky military airfield in Crimea, inflicting "serious damage." The source, who asked for anonymity because they aren't authorized to speak publicly about operations, said there were 12 combat aircraft (Su-24 and Su-30 fighter aircraft) at the airfield, a Pantsir missile system and a UAV (unmanned aerial vehicles, or drones) operator training base. "Strikes hit the targets and caused serious damage to the occupiers' equipment. Drones were used to defeat the enemy, which overloaded the Russian air defense system, and then they [Ukraine] launched Neptune missiles," the source said. "The occupiers cannot feel safe on the occupied peninsula," the source said, implying more attacks would come in future. Russia's Ministry of Defense said Thursday that Kyiv had attempted to attack "objects" on Russian territory with drones but said it had thwarted the attack. It did not mention the Saky (or Saki, as Russia spells it) airbase by name. "On the night of September 20-21, an attempt by the Kiev regime to carry out a terrorist attack with aircraft-type unmanned aerial vehicles on objects on the territory of the Russian Federation was stopped. Air defense systems over the Black Sea and the territory of the Republic of Crimea destroyed 19 Ukrainian UAVs." — Holly Ellyatt | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107304329-1695293405630-gettyimages-1232955986-ur_russian_troops_06_april16_2021_maxar.jpeg?v=1695293903', 'width': '1024', 'height': '665'} | null |

The move sent shock waves through the country as Putin established Russian society on a firm war footing, and thousands of men tried to flee the country to escape the draft. In the last week, the chair of the Russian State Duma Defence Committee reiterated that mobilized personnel were obliged to serve for the duration of what Russia still calls a "special military operation." Britain's Defense Ministry noted Thursday that former general Andrei Kartapolov also made a made a new admission that shed light on "the stark situation at the front" when he said that it was not possible for personnel to be rotated out of the operational zone during their service. "The absence of regular unit rotations out of combat duty is highly likely one of the most important factors contributing to low Russian morale, and the Russian Army's failure to conduct higher-level training since the invasion," the ministry said in an intelligence update on X, formerly known as Twitter. "The lack of such training is highly likely contributing to Russia's difficulties in conducting successful complex offensive operations." — Holly Ellyatt | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107137800-1666248768093-gettyimages-1243878038-AA_11102022_897202.jpeg?v=1697009711', 'width': '1024', 'height': '697'} | null |

"On the night of September 20-21, an attempt by the Kiev regime to carry out a terrorist attack using aircraft-type unmanned aerial vehicles on targets on the territory of the Russian Federation was thwarted," the ministry said on Telegram in a post translated by NBC. "Air defense systems destroyed 19 Ukrainian UAVs [unmanned aerial vehicles] over the Black Sea and the territory of the Republic of Crimea, one each over the territories of the Kursk, Belgorod and Oryol regions," No further details were provided and CNBC was unable to immediately verify the information. Belgorod, Oryol and Kursk are among a number of northwestern, central and southwestern Russian regions that have been targeted increasingly in recent months. Ukraine remains typically tight-lipped about attacks against Russian territory and NATO members have asked Ukraine not to use NATO-supplied weaponry against Russia itself, fearing this would be seen as a direct attack by NATO against Russia. It is therefore believed that Kyiv uses mainly Ukrainian-made drones in any attacks against Russia. It announced in summer it is ramping up the production of domestic-made UAVs.

The strikes set buildings ablaze and killed and wounded civilians. Air alerts sounded across the country as Russia launched a barrage of missile attacks on the capital, where seven people including a nine year-old girl were injured, as well as Kherson, where three civilians were killed and others injured. Kyiv Mayor Vitaly Klitschko posted on Telegram that "Kyiv survived another night attack by Russian barbarians," saying that buildings had been damaged and that there were power outages in some parts of the city. Kharkiv, Lviv, Rivne and Cherkasy in central Ukraine were also among the cities targeted, regional Ukrainian officials reported on Telegram, posting images of emergency services trying to rescue people from the rubble of damaged or destroyed buildings in some cities. The attack came hours after President Volodymyr Zelenskyy delivered a speech to the U.N.'s Security Council on Wednesday, calling for Russia to lose its veto power within the council. He also presented a Ukrainian peace plan at the summit. He's due to travel to Washington on Thursday to hold private meetings with President Joe Biden. — Holly Ellyatt | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107304417-1695299705811-gettyimages-1693453628-9j6a0432_zavhorodnii_21092023_kyiv_av.jpeg?v=1695300971', 'width': '5561', 'height': '3707'} | null |

BlogPosting | Poland deals Ukraine a blow, saying it will no longer supply weapons | https://www.cnbc.com/2023/09/21/ukraine-war-live-updates-latest-news-on-russia-and-the-war-in-ukraine.html#107304270-post | 2023-09-21T12:44:15+0000 | 2023-09-21T07:13:40+0000 | {'@type': 'WebPage', '@id': 'https://www.cnbc.com/2023/09/21/ukraine-war-live-updates-latest-news-on-russia-and-the-war-in-ukraine.html#107304270-post'} | Poland said Wednesday that it will no longer supply its neighbor Ukraine with weapons, amid an ongoing and deepening rift over agricultural exports. "We no longer transfer weapons to [Ukraine], because we are now arming Poland," Poland's Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki said Wednesday on the X social media platform , previously known as Twitter, according to a Google translation. "Ukraine is defending itself against the brutal Russian attack and I understand this situation, but as I said, we will protect our country," he added. Warsaw has been one of Kyiv's staunchest allies since mutual foe Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022 but the latest comments followed a dramatic deterioration of relations between Kyiv and Warsaw this week. A recent dispute over Ukraine's agricultural exports — which have had to be transferred via eastern European countries while Russia has effectively blockaded grain ships leaving the country's ports — has threatened to break the alliance. Ukraine this week threatened to sue Poland, Hungary, and Slovakia over their refusal to lift a ban on imports of Ukrainian agricultural products and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy insinuated that some European countries had feigned support for Ukraine, prompting anger in Warsaw.

Security Council. In an address in New York, Zelenskyy said the move was a necessary step in bringing an end to the fighting in his country. "It is impossible to stop the war because all efforts are vetoed by the aggressor," he said, adding that reforms of the council were long overdue. "I know that the U.N. is capable of more. I'm confident that the U.N. Charter can actually work for the sake of peace and security globally. However, for this to happen, the years-long discussions and projects on U.N. reform must be translated into a viable process of UN reform," he said. — Karen Gilchrist | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107303234-16951478262023-09-19t182114z_597433744_rc2ub3abj8cl_rtrmadp_0_un-assembly.jpeg?v=1695299478', 'width': '3134', 'height': '2344'} | null |

"[Deputy Foreign Minister Pawel Jablonski] conveyed the Polish side's strong protest against the statements made by President V. Zelenskiy at the U.N. General Assembly yesterday, alleging that some EU countries feigned solidarity while indirectly supporting Russia," the foreign ministry said in a statement, as reported by Reuters. Ukraine's foreign ministry spokesman Oleg Nikolenko said Ukraine had offered a "constructive path to resolve the grain issue." Ukraine has heavily criticized Poland, Hungary and Slovakia for last week introducing bans on the domestic import of various Ukrainian agricultural products following the expiration of EU-led limitations on imports covering the three countries, as well as Romania and Bulgaria. Products may transit the countries but not be sold there. Land export routes have become crucial for Ukraine following the suspension of the Black Sea Grain Initiative, but farmers argue imports will overwhelm supply and cause a depression in prices if not restricted. The EU had urged countries not to introduce divergent policies on the matter, as Ukraine agreed to introduce measures to prevent a supply glut, but national leaders argued this was insufficient. Ukraine has filed a complaint with the World Trade Organization over the issue, thought to target Poland, Hungary and Slovakia. Polish and Ukrainian officials have in turn suggested they may introduce further retaliatory trade curbs as the dispute has escalated. Romania on Wednesday announced it would work with Ukraine on a plan to control exports. — Jenni Reid | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107304564-1695310188507-Image3.jpg?v=1695315551', 'width': 3024, 'height': 2124} | {'@type': 'VideoObject', 'contentUrl': 'https://pdl-iphone-cnbc-com.akamaized.net/VCPS/Y2023/M09D04/7000314083/1693822424-31047703346-hd_L.mp4', 'description': 'Russian President Vladimir Putin and his Turkish counterpart Recep Tayyip Erdogan meet in Sochi to discuss the next steps for the Black Sea grain deal.

Lavrov reiterated Russia's assertion that Western economic sanctions were hampering Russian grain and fertiliser exports. He also said that a plan currently being discussed to supply one million tonnes of Russian grain to Turkey at a discounted price would be on top of the grain supplies that Russia has promised to give some African countries free of charge. — Reuters | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107259175-1687264280320-gettyimages-1258817613-AA_19062023_1241379.jpeg?v=1693483628', 'width': 5751, 'height': 3834} | null |

Deputy Defense Minister Hanna Maliar said on messaging app Telegram that in the south, "there are certain successes, in particular in the Novodanilivka-Novoprokopivka direction." Maliar said there had been similar advances in the Bakhmut area in eastern Ukraine, a hotspot in the conflict. "In the direction of Bakhmut, the Defense Forces continue to conduct offensive actions south of the city of Bakhmut. Heavy fighting continues in Klishchiivka, Kurdyumivka, Andriivka. There are certain successes," she said. Maliar's comments come at a time of sensitivity over Ukraine's counteroffensive that has made less progress than hoped since it began in June. Russia used the winter and spring months ahead of the counteroffensive to heavily fortify its positions in the south and east, making it far harder for Ukrainian forces to break through their miles-deep defensive lines. Earlier Thursday, Ukraine's Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba hit out at critics of Kyiv's tactics in its counter-offensive, saying they were spitting in the faces of Ukrainian soldiers. "Criticizing the slow pace of [the] counter-offensive equals ... spitting into the face of [the] Ukrainian soldier who sacrifices his life every day, moving forward and liberating one kilometer of Ukrainian soil after another," Kuleba told reporters at a meeting of EU foreign ministers in Spain, Reuters reported. — Holly Ellyatt | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107294433-1693487324968-gettyimages-1602826489-AA_16082023_1310058.jpeg?v=1693487715', 'width': '1024', 'height': '683'} | null |

Russia pulled out of a previous grain deal, known as the Black Sea Grain Initiative, in July, saying its own exports of grain and fertilizer had been impeded by sanctions and restrictions. The deal had enabled millions of tons of Ukrainian grain to safely leave three of the country's ports, alleviating global food shortages. Under a new possible agreement, Russia would send a million tons of grain to Turkey at a discounted price, with financial support from Qatar. From Turkey, the agricultural goods would be processed and then sent to the countries most in need, Russia's foreign ministry said yesterday ahead of the talks, Reuters reported. As Russia and Turkey's foreign ministers held talks on Thursday, the Kremlin's press secretary said he couldn't predict how productive the discussions on the grain deal would be. "There are no concrete results of these talks. More top-level discussions are expected but [the] probable results are unclear. Russia is a responsible supplier and will continue discussions. We are ready to resume the grain deal the moment the obligations towards us are fulfilled," Dmitry Peskov told reporters Thursday, according to comments translated by NBC. The Thursday discussions come ahead of a potential meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and his Turkish counterpart next week. Two unnamed Turkish sources told Reuters the gathering will take place on Sept. 4. — Holly Ellyatt | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107145559-1667483739677-gettyimages-1228288673-111767309_usw.jpeg?v=1693485643', 'width': '5945', 'height': '3963'} | null |

"Criticising the slow pace of (the) counter-offensive equals ... spitting into the face of (the) Ukrainian soldier who sacrifices his life every day, moving forward and liberating one kilometre of Ukrainian soil after another," Kuleba told reporters at a meeting of EU foreign ministers in Toledo, Spain. The New York Times last week quoted U.S. and other Western officials as saying that the offensive had made limited progress because Ukraine had too many troops in the wrong places. "I would recommend all critics to shut up, come to Ukraine and try to liberate one square centimeter by themselves," Kuleba said, standing alongside Spanish Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Albares. — Reuters | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107282905-1691433827229-gettyimages-1583866114-AA_07082023_1300442.jpeg?v=1693819646', 'width': '5000', 'height': '3333'} | null |

Belarus' President Alexander Lukashenko described calls by Poland and Baltic countries for the Wagner Group to withdraw from Belarus as "unreasonable and stupid." "They got to the point that they are already demanding their immediate withdrawal from Belarus. At the same time, they themselves are increasing military budgets, pulling large military formations to our borders," Lukashenko said, according to comments reported by state news agency BelTA and translated by NBC News. "These are unreasonable and stupid demands, not even requests and proposals, but demands," the president said. The Wagner Group was effectively exiled to Russia's ally Belarus following a failed mutiny against the Russian state in June. Earlier this week, Poland and the Baltic states, which neighbor Belarus, called for Wagner to withdraw, seeing their presence as a threat. — Holly Ellyatt | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107263839-1687945455695-gettyimages-1257744118-RUS_President_Putin_Attends_The_2nd_Eurasian_Economic_Forum.jpeg?v=1693482680', 'width': '5011', 'height': '3722'} | null |

Wallace, who had been touted as a potential successor to NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg, had taken a leading role in shaping Britain's response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine last year. Under him, Britain provided 2.3 billion pounds ($2.9 billion) of military aid to Kyiv in 2022 and became the first country to start supplying Ukraine with long-range cruise missiles in May this year to help end Europe's biggest land war since World War Two. Wallace remained in post last year when Britain went through one of the most turbulent times in its political history, with the departure of two prime ministers over scandal and economic turmoil. The defense role will be Shapps' fifth government job over the last year, after serving in four different ministries - transport, interior affairs, business and then at energy and net zero. His appointment is unlikely to change Britain's support for Ukraine against Russia. — Reuters | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107181047-1674137493549-gettyimages-1246297056-gd1_7651.jpeg?v=1693477321', 'width': '3974', 'height': '2649'} | null |

Russia blamed Ukraine for the attacks against its territory but Kyiv has not publicly commented. Officials in Russian-occupied Crimea and the Bryansk region reported more attempted drone and missile attacks overnight, while Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin said Russian air defense forces had destroyed a drone flying toward the capital . No damage was caused, he said. Dozens of flights were reportedly delayed at Moscow's airports as a result of the drone incident. Regional official Sergei Aksyonov said air defense forces had shot down a cruise missile in the eastern part of Crimea, which Russia has occupied since 2014. In the Bryansk region of Russia that borders northern Ukraine, two unmanned aerial vehicles were shot down, the region's Governor Alexander Bogomaz said on Telegram.

Russia pulled out of the U.N.-brokered deal in July, saying its own exports of grain and fertilizer had been impeded by sanctions and restrictions. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and his Turkish counterpart Hakan Fidan will discuss the possibility of launching a new Black Sea grain deal when they meet Thursday and Friday in Moscow. Under a plan proposed by Moscow, Russia would send a million metric tons of discounted grain to Turkey, where it would then be processed and sent to countries most in need, the Foreign Ministry said, according to Reuters. "We consider this project as the optimal working alternative to the Black Sea deal," it said, referring to the U.N.-backed deal that Russia exited in July. — Karen Gilchrist, Holly Ellyatt | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107259175-1687264280320-gettyimages-1258817613-AA_19062023_1241379.jpeg?v=1693483628', 'width': 5751, 'height': 3834} | null |

Russia alleged that Ukraine was behind the attacks targeting northwest and central Russia, including the Moscow region. Briefing journalists on Wednesday, Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova said the drone attacks on territory that was so far from Ukraine would not have been possible without information from Western satellites. “The actions of the Ukrainian regime will not go unpunished,” Zakharova said, according to comments published by state news agency Tass. “Russian law enforcement agencies are investigating and carefully documenting all facts of shelling of Russian regions by Ukrainian militants, as well as their other criminal activities,” she said.

Prigozhin was buried at the Porokhovskoye cemetery in his home town of St Petersburg on Tuesday away from the glare of the media whom he had courted so ardently in life after leading his fighters on a dash towards Moscow before turning back. A man wearing the shirt of his Wagner mercenaries and a cap bearing the Russian flag was among those paying respects at the grave, where red roses and carnations graced a wooden Orthodox cross lablled "Prigozhin, Yevgeny Viktorovich 1961 - 2023." One tribute beside flowers read: "To be a warrior is to live forever." The private jet on which Prigozhin was travelling to St Petersburg from Moscow crashed north of Moscow with the loss of all 10 people on board on Aug. 23, including Prigozhin, top Wagner commanders, his bodyguards and a crew of three. It is still unclear what caused the plane to crash but villagers near the scene told Reuters they heard a bang and then saw the jet plummet to the ground. The Kremlin has rejected as an "absolute lie" the suggestion by some Western politicians and commentators - for which they have not provided evidence - that Putin ordered Prigozhin to be killed in revenge. — Reuters | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107293661-1693385104231-gettyimages-1633305770-AFP_33TW38Y.jpeg?v=1693385165', 'width': '5411', 'height': '3607'} | null |

BlogPosting | Kremlin does not rule out possibility that Prigozhin's death was premeditated | https://www.cnbc.com/2023/08/31/ukraine-war-live-updates-latest-news-on-russia-and-the-war-in-ukraine.html#107293709-post | 2023-08-30T11:33:55+0000 | 2023-08-30T11:33:55+0000 | {'@type': 'WebPage', '@id': 'https://www.cnbc.com/2023/08/31/ukraine-war-live-updates-latest-news-on-russia-and-the-war-in-ukraine.html#107293709-post'} | The Kremlin said Wednesday it did not rule out that the death of mercenary boss Yevgeny Prigozhin was premeditated. Dmitry Peskov, the Kremlin's press secretary, said Russia's Investigative Committee would look into the causes of the plane crash last week that killed Prigozhin, the head of the mercenary private military company the Wagner Group, but ruled out outside involvement in the inquiry. "It is obvious that different versions are being considered, including the version - you know what we are talking about – let's say, a deliberate atrocity," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters, according to comments translated by Reuters. "Let's wait for the results of our Russian investigation," he added. Peskov's comment is the first time Moscow has acknowledged that Prigozhin's death may not have been an accident. Prigozhin was a close ally of President Putin before he led a short-lived mutiny in June against the state that put him on a collision path with the president. Last week, the private, Brazilian-made Embraer jet in which Prigozhin and his closest associates were traveling in, crashed north of Moscow, killing all 10 people on board. Brazil's aircraft investigation authority told Reuters that it will not probe the crash of the jet under international rules "at the moment." Asked about this, Peskov said Russia's Investigative Committee had already begun its inquiry and that "in this case there can be no talk of any international aspect." The Kremlin has rejected what it sees as Western "speculation" that Putin ordered Prigozhin to be killed in revenge for the uprising, describing it as an "absolute lie." — Holly Ellyatt | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107291308-1692868924554-gettyimages-1619659672-AFP_33RZ83Z.jpeg?v=1693395235', 'width': '4311', 'height': '2874'} | null |

One alleged attack had caused a fire at an airfield in Pskov in the northwest of the country, setting two Ilyushin Il-76 military transport aircraft on fire and damaging several other aircraft, Russian news agency Tass reported . The governor of the Pskov region, Mikhail Vedernikov, said on his Telegram channel that the scale of the destruction is being assessed and flights from Pskov's airport were canceled Wednesday. The Russian Defense Ministry also reported attempted drone attacks in the Bryansk, Kaluga and Oryol regions southwest of Moscow as well as the Ryazan area to the southeast. It said a drone had also been intercepted near the capital, prompting the authorities to close airports in the city. "Today, at about 03:30 Moscow time, an attempt by the Kiev regime to carry out a terrorist attack by an aircraft-type UAV against objects on the territory of the Russian Federation was thwarted," the Russian Ministry of Defense said in a statement reported by Russian news agency Tass. "The unmanned aerial vehicle was intercepted and crashed over the territory of the Ruzsky district of the Moscow region," the ministry added. Moscow's Domodedovo, Vnukovo and Sheremetyevo airports temporarily stopped all flights but have since reopened. Ukraine has not said it was involved in the drone attacks and has typically remained tight-lipped about attacks against the Russian territory itself. Ukrainian officials said Russia had launched a massive, combined strike on the capital Kyiv overnight using attack drones and missiles. — Holly Ellyatt | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107293626-1693375938130-gettyimages-1232786140-AA_09052021_344762.jpeg?v=1693379100', 'width': '5472', 'height': '3648'} | null |

"We have all witnessed with horror the evidence of atrocities committed in Bucha, Irpin, Mariupol, Izium, Kherson, Kharkiv regions and other liberated cities and towns," Kostin said, adding that Ukrainian authorities have discovered mass burial sites in areas occupied by Russian troops. "These crimes are not incidental or accidental, they include indiscriminate shelling of civilians, willful killing, torture, conflict-related sexual violence, looting and forced displacement on a massive scale," he added in remarks at the Georgetown Law School in Washington. His comments add to an emerging picture of the horrors experienced during nearly a year of war in Ukraine. The conflict has shown few signs of ending soon, even as local and international officials try to probe potential crimes committed over recent months in Ukraine. In a separate discussion with journalists, Kostin said he believed Kyiv was close to gaining U.S. support to establish a special tribunal to prosecute Russia's crimes of aggression.

"I'm a scoundrel to you, but I only ask you to take into account that I have come to realize that, albeit belatedly, and I spoke against all that," Andrey Medvedev said in an excerpt from his interview to Norwegian broadcaster NRK that was posted online Tuesday. "I ask you not to condemn me, and in any case I apologize." Medvedev who has said that he fears for his life if he returns to Russia, lives in a center for asylum seekers in Oslo. He illegally crossed into Norway, which has a 198-kilometer (123-mile) -long border with Russia, earlier this month.

Photographs circulating on social media appeared to show Ihor Kolomoiskiy dressed in a sweatsuit and looking on in the presence of an SBU security service officer at his home. The action, days before a summit with the European Union, appears to reflect determination by Kyiv to demonstrate that it can be a steward of billions of dollars in Western aid and shed a reputation as one of the world's most corrupt states. The SBU said it had uncovered the embezzlement of more than $1 billion at Ukraine's biggest oil company, Ukrnafta, and its biggest refiner, Ukrtatnafta. Kolomoiskiy, who has long denied wrongdoing, once held stakes in both firms, which Zelenskiy ordered seized by the state in November under martial law. Separate raids were carried out at the tax office, and the home of Arsen Avakov, who led Ukraine's police force as interior minister from 2014-2021. The SBU said it was cracking down on "people whose actions harm the security of the state in various spheres" and promised more details in coming days. — Reuters | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107187429-1675274146824-gettyimages-467468940-Par8129573.jpeg?v=1675286979', 'width': '3478', 'height': '2472'} | null |

The ships are destined for Spain, Turkey, Portugal, Egypt and China. The vessels are carrying wheat and corn. The Black Sea Grain Initiative , a deal brokered in July among Ukraine, Russia, Turkey and the United Nations, eased Russia's naval blockade and saw three key Ukrainian ports reopen.

Agencies in Rome, called for a global effort in addressing food insecurity exacerbated, by Russia's war in Ukraine. McCain, who spoke before an audience at the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington, has previously called the mounting food crisis "the worse humanitarian crisis since World War II." Before the war, Ukraine and Russia accounted for almost a quarter of global grain exports until those shipments came to a severe halt due to Moscow's naval blockade. McCain added that before the war global food supply chains were burdened by the Covid-19 pandemic and climate change. — Amanda Macias | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/106713191-1600822320273-GettyImages-1185785242.jpg?v=1677875966', 'width': '5256', 'height': '3640'} | null |

The sanctions target the "Zimenkov network", a Russian sanctions evasion network led by Igor Vladimirovich Zimenkov, an arms dealer based in Russia and Cyprus. The group has worked to supply a Russian company with high-technology devices for use in its war against Ukraine and supported previously sanctioned entities in Russia. The Zimenkov network has also reached as far as Singapore, Belarus, Bulgaria and Israel.

Foreign companies holding UK property had until the end of Tuesday to identify their "beneficial owners" in a new public register, making Britain one of the first countries to do so. But a Reuters analysis of government data found that the people behind more than 10,000 UK-property owning foreign companies remain shielded from public view. More than 19,700 overseas companies had disclosed ownership of UK property as of Wednesday morning in Britain, according to data from Companies House, which runs the new register. That represents about two-thirds of all the property-owning foreign companies, according to the government. About 5,500 companies, or nearly 30% of the more than 19,700 companies that did register with Companies House didn't identify any individual owners, Reuters found. Many of those disclosed as beneficial owners entities in countries known for business secrecy, such as the British Virgin Islands or Panama. Government guidance defines a beneficial owner as either an individual or an entity, such as a corporation or trustee. Only four Russian nationals under British government sanctions appeared on the register as of Wednesday morning. They were: Vladimir Potanin, one of Russia's wealthiest businessmen; Russia's former first deputy prime minister Igor Shuvalov and his wife; and Alexander Frolov, the former chief executive officer of Evraz, a Russian steel and mining company. — Reuters | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107187242-1675263993026-gettyimages-896823776-98874092.jpeg?v=1675265116', 'width': '3500', 'height': '2181'} | null |

Alexander Nevzorov, a television journalist and former lawmaker, was convicted on charges of spreading false information about the military under a law that was adopted soon after Russian President Vladimir Putin sent troops into Ukraine. The law effectively exposes anyone critical of the Russian military action in Ukraine to fines and prison sentences of up to 10 years. Nevzorov was accused of posting "false information" on social media about the Russian shelling of a maternity hospital in the Sea of Azov port of Mariupol. Moscow has fiercely denied its involvement. Nevzorov, who moved abroad after the start of the Ukrainian conflict, didn't have an immediate comment on the verdict. — Associated Press | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107188111-1675353591014-AP23032421947355.jpg?v=1675353661', 'width': '2644', 'height': '1761'} | null |

"Abusing power and position, the acting chief of the Kyiv money tax office made a decision on non-compliance with taxpayer risk criteria for a number of enterprises," the post read, according to a Facebook translation, while not naming the official in question. "According to operational data, she implemented through her trustees schemes to artificial inflation of gross expenses by some enterprises, entrepreneurial activities without registration ... and submission of unverified income information," the post said. It added that the "total amount of established unfounded assets ... is about 1.4 million U.S. dollars." The government of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has made a point of cracking down on corruption in recent weeks as some Western officials worry about the transparency and allocation of billions of dollars in foreign aid funds. Ukraine is regularly ranked as one of the most corrupt countries in Europe. — Natasha Turak | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107169625-16716366812022-12-21t152544z_1876935286_rc2day9buz53_rtrmadp_0_ukraine-crisis-usa-zelenskiy.jpeg?v=1675238838', 'width': 3500, 'height': 2333} | null |

"The fact that Russia and China are coming closer and the significant investments by China and new advanced military capabilities just underlines that China poses a threat, poses a challenge also to NATO allies," Stoltenberg said during a speech in Tokyo. "Security is not regional, but global." He described China's growing investments into long-range missiles and nuclear weapons as lacking transparency and international dialogue, and accused it of threatening Western-allied Taiwan. Moscow and Beijing are orchestrating an "authoritarian pushback" against democratic countries and the current international order, Stoltenberg said, while also adding that NATO does not see China as an enemy, nor does it want escalation. China's foreign ministry pushed back against the comments, with a spokesperson saying that Beijing was a force for global stability and that NATO is driving a "Cold War mentality and bloc confrontation." — Natasha Turak | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107186958-1675211930666-gettyimages-1246691213-AA_31012023_1044686.jpeg?v=1675257032', 'width': '3500', 'height': '2333'} | null |

"All I will say is that every time we have said it will be a mistake to give such and such an item of weaponry, we end up doing it and it ends up being the right thing for Ukraine," Johnson said during an interview with Fox News. The former PM spoke while on a trip to Washington to rally support for Ukraine among members of Congress. The U.S. and U.K. recently shot down the idea of sending Western F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine, something Kyiv has long been asking for. "We do not think it is practical to send those jets into Ukraine," a Downing Street spokesperson said on Tuesday. Aside from the massive amount of training it would require, many Western leaders also fear that sending such sophisticated and powerful equipment to Ukraine would provoke Russia too much. But Johnson rejected the notion, saying that was the same mindset that preceded many prior decisions to ultimately send other advanced weapons to Ukraine. "I remember being told it was the wrong idea to give them the anti-tank shoulder-launched missiles. Actually, they were indispensable and the United States – under Donald Trump – gave them the Javelins as well. They were indispensable in the battles to repel the Russian tanks," he said. "All I'm saying is save time, save money, save lives. Give the Ukrainians what they need as fast as possible." — Natasha Turak | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107182280-16744760612023-01-22t162431z_508554626_rc2svy945jhk_rtrmadp_0_ukraine-crisis-johnson-zelenskiy.jpeg?v=1675255567', 'width': '3000', 'height': '2001'} | null |

BlogPosting | Israel's Netanyahu says he is open to mediator role 'if asked' | https://www.cnbc.com/2023/02/01/ukraine-war-live-updates-latest-news-on-russia-and-the-war-in-ukraine.html#107187116-post | 2023-02-01T12:21:47+0000 | 2023-02-01T12:21:47+0000 | {'@type': 'WebPage', '@id': 'https://www.cnbc.com/2023/02/01/ukraine-war-live-updates-latest-news-on-russia-and-the-war-in-ukraine.html#107187116-post'} | Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told CNN in an interview that he would be willing to act as a mediator between Ukraine and Russia if asked by both countries and Washington. "If asked by all relevant parties, I'll certainly consider it, but I'm not pushing myself in," Netanyahu said, adding that it would need to be "the right time and the right circumstances." The right-wing Israeli leader also said that he had been informally asked to play such a role shortly after the war broke out but declined, since he was not Israel's prime minister at the time. Israel is a longtime ally of Russia, and while it has condemned Moscow's invasion of Ukraine, it has held back on sanctions for a number of reasons. Israel is a sanctuary for Russian Jews and is home to the third-largest number of Russian speakers outside of the ex-Soviet states, and around 100,000 Israelis lived in Russia before the war, though the current figure is unclear. And while Israel's government has sent humanitarian aid and defensive equipment to Ukraine since the Russian invasion, it's refrained from sending offensive weapons that Kyiv has asked for, out of a reluctance to upset Moscow. Netanyahu's predecessor, Naftali Bennett, spoke to both Russian President Vladimir Putin and his Ukrainian counterpart Volodymyr Zelenskyy in March in an attempt to mediate at Kyiv's request, but was unsuccessful. — Natasha Turak | {'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']} | {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/106885182-16214251642021-05-19t110145z_200806425_rc2xin9sr2q4_rtrmadp_0_israel-palestinians-netanyahu.jpeg?v=1675254107', 'width': '3500', 'height': '2334'} | null |
