Clément Molin wrote that the Ukrainian army continued its advance on at least three fronts and, according to him, was still putting pressure on the Russian groupings Zapad and Vostok. He announced that he would discuss the situation on the front of Komar and Velika Novosilka the following day, in the context of this progression. He estimated that, despite its apparently secondary impact, this advance concerned the southern flank of the Azov grouping, which was defending Dobropilla, while the offensive at Lyman protected the northern flank of the Centre grouping, responsible for defending Sloviansk. According to him, if the Russian forces did not react, a large part of the gains from 2025 could be reversed, and the prospect of a push east of Zaporijjia compromised. #Ukraine #Conflit #Armée (translated)

The author argued that Ukraine needed air-defence ammunition on a wartime scale and called for 5,000 Patriot interceptors to be produced across the United States, Europe and Japan in 2027. They said 2,400 should be delivered to Ukraine, at a rate of 200 per month, and urged the Free World not to let Russia produce offensive missiles faster. https://t.co/HWeS61tMsQ #Ukraine #AirDefense #PatriotMissiles #UA #US #EU #JP #RU

Majakovsk has argued that the amount of diesel that the United States would buy or unlock from Russia would be insufficient to cover American needs and would mostly arrive just before or after the midterm elections. In his view, the initiative would primarily serve a propaganda function. He added that many estimates would consider Russian production capacity without accounting for the growth of domestic consumption. Before the war, he wrote, Russia produced 80-90 million tons of diesel per year, exported about half (40-45 Mt), and consumed 35-38 million internally. According to 2026 data cited by Majakovsk, production would have dropped to about 70-75 million tons, while domestic consumption would have risen to 48-55 million, also due to the needs of the war machine and logistics. Majakovsk stated that, during certain periods, including planting and harvesting or offensives, Moscow would be forced to temporarily suspend exports to meet domestic demand, relying on strategic reserves for the rest of the year. He then argued that a significant increase in Russian exports would not be sustainable and that overseas sales would be capped. Referring to Donald Trump's move, Majakovsk called it a worrying political signal, especially for the diplomatic and symbolic rupture it would represent; he added that the influx of new capital into the Russian war machine would remain marginal. #Ucraina #diesel #politica (translated)
