Moscow announced on Tuesday that it is ready to continue the stalled peace talks with Kyiv, but according to new reports, it does not intend to back down from its demands. The statement by Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov comes after a series of Ukrainian drone attacks and following earlier reports of a strike on an oil refinery in Moscow. pravda.sk ↗
New information broadens the picture of growing pressure on the Kremlin. According to analytical assessments, Ukraine has gained a technological edge thanks to drones and artificial intelligence, and the attacks on refineries are meant to deepen Russia's economic problems. Russian military spending rose by 30 percent in the first quarter, and according to a budget analysis, nearly every second ruble is going toward the military. Rosneft CEO Igor Sechin, meanwhile, claims that there are no restrictions on refueling at the company's filling stations. hnonline.sk ↗
Pressure is also shifting toward Crimea. Following footage of a burning power plant in Kerch, the Ukrainian side says it is trying to turn the peninsula into an isolated space. Robert Brovdi, commander of Ukraine's unmanned systems forces, described Crimea as a possible psychological breaking point for Russia. SITA ↗
Meanwhile, Putin attended a commemoration at the Kremlin marking the anniversary of the Nazi attack on the Soviet Union. In European politics, the dispute continues over who should negotiate with him, and on NATO's eastern flank, nearly 5,000 German soldiers are to be permanently stationed in Lithuania. Igor Girkin has also spoken out earlier from prison via his Telegram channel, adding to the picture of tension within Russia's wartime environment. idnes.cz ↗
