June 7 Sitrep (my comments in Bold Face)
INTERNATIONAL
“Foreign Policy” Magazine: Fascinating interview with former NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen. He served as Secretary General between 2009, just after Russia’s invasion of Georgia, and 2014, just after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Rasmussen made the following observations:
· In the run-up to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, NATO vastly overestimated the strength of the Russian Armed Forces and, since then, NATO underestimated the level of brutality that the Russian Armed Forces are capable of.
· He believes that Turkey’s issues with the admission into NATO by Sweden and Finland is more of a conflict that Turkey has with the U.S., over the U.S. refusal to supply F-16s and F-35s to Turkey because of Turkey’s purchase from Russia of the S-400 air defense system.
· He’s not concerned about Russia’s possible use of nuclear weapons or other WMDs.
· “We cannot save Putin from humiliation. The cost of face-saving for Mr. Putin will be much higher than an outright defeat for the Russian troops in Ukraine. That’s why my conclusion is that Ukraine must win this war, because if Putin succeeds in Ukraine, he won’t stop. He will continue into Moldova, Georgia, and eventually also put pressure on the three Baltic states. That’s why the Ukrainians must win, and they have the will to fight. It’s our duty to give them the means to fight.”
· He dismisses allegations by NY Times columnist Tom Friedman, and others, that NATO expansion contributed to Russia’s decision to invade Ukraine.
· In 2008, NATO made a mistake by not offering Ukraine and Georgia NATO Membership Action Plans, and in 2014 by imposing very mild sanctions in response to Russia’s invasion of Crimea.
· “I think we are now approaching a new world order where you have two camps: an autocratic camp led by China and a democratic camp led by the United States.”

Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of the Russian Federation Dmitry Medvedev on his Telegram channel - People often ask me why my Telegram posts are so harsh. The answer is that I hate them.

The European Council will discuss the status of Ukraine’s candidacy at the summit on June 23-24. Currently, the European Commission is preparing a conclusion on Ukraine's compliance with the EU membership criteria.
Serbian President: Due to the partial oil embargo imposed by the European Union against Russia, Serbia will lose $600 million annually. "$600 million per year has been taken directly from the pockets of the citizens of Serbia due to the sanctions, and people should know about it.”
Reuters: British Prime Minister: Thanked the Conservatives who refused to pass a vote of no confidence in him. He called the result of the vote convincing and decisive for the country. There were many Ukrainians who are breathing a sigh of relief that Boris Johnson survived the no-confidence vote. He has been a great supporter of Ukraine, and Ukrainians were/are rightly concerned about what might come after him.
US Secretary of State: Grain theft is a part of broader Russian actions during the war against Ukraine that undermines Kyiv's ability to export its wheat crop and exacerbates the global food security crisis. "There are reports that are credible, as we saw today in one of our leading newspapers, that Russia is stealing Ukrainian grain prepared for export ... to sell it for its own benefit", – Blinken says.
● Russia is blackmailing the world with an aggravation of the food crisis by blocking export grain in Ukraine and using aggressive propaganda.
● “Putin is trying in this way to achieve a relaxation of sanctions against the Kremlin, but it is the Russian Federation that contributes to the worsening of the situation with hunger outside the Ukrainian borders, in particular in African countries”, – Blinken says.

● The Poles sign ammunition "For Katyn!".
European Commission for Enlargement and Neighborhood Policy: The EU calls on Turkey to take a tougher position on the situation in Ukraine, in line with the policy of Brussels. We welcome Turkey's constructive role in de-escalating the conflict. At the same time, we continue to urge Turkey to take a more decisive position, which would be more in line with the position of the EU, We call on Turkey to be more vigilant when it comes to preventing the circumvention of sanctions."
Speaker of the Greek government: Greece will transfer about 100 units of German BMP-1s to Ukraine when it receives the Marder infantry vehicles promised by Germany in return. The reason for this position is the conflict between Greece and Turkey encroaches on some Greek islands, which is why the country's armed forces are on alert.
CNBC: The United States allowed to confiscate two of Abramovich's planes. The planes are a Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner and Gulfstream G650ER aircraft.

● The Russian Federation destroyed the second largest grain terminal in Ukraine in Mykolaiv. Another Russian missile strike contributing to the global food crisis. In the light of such reports, the disinformation that Putin is spreading to deflect blame becomes even more cynical.
"We Can Explain" Telegram channel: State procurement data shows that Russian authorities are buying hundreds of graves for the dead, which indicates heavy losses in the war in Ukraine.

In Karelia - 39. In Murmansk, the number of new burials is not indicated: the documentation says that they are planned in "bursts.” Interestingly, all the cities and towns mentioned here are located outside of areas of Russia that are considered to be majority Russian. It’s another indication that Russia is relying heavily on ethnic minorities to fight its wars.
The Independent: While the EU is trying to negotiate an embargo on energy from Russia, European companies have almost doubled the transportation of Russian oil. The publication notes that in February, companies and ships associated with Greece, Cyprus and Malta transported 31 million barrels of Russian oil, and in May - already 58 million barrels. Thanks to this, Moscow received billions of dollars.
Hungarian Foreign Minister: Defended the head of the Hungarian parliament Laszlo Kever and supported the words about "mental problems" of Volodymyr Zelenskyi.

British Intelligence
● Over the weekend, Ukrainian forces have recaptured parts of Sieverodonetsk although Russian forces likely continue to occupy eastern districts. Russia's broader plan likely continues to be to cut off the Sieverodonetsk area from both the north and the south .
● Russia made gains on the southern ,Popasna axis through May but its progress in the area has stalled over the last week. Reports of heavy shelling near Izium suggests Russia is preparing to make renewed effort on the northern axis.
● Russia will almost certainly need to achieve a breakthrough on at least one of these axes to translate tactical gains to operational level success and progress towards its political objective of controlling all of Donetsk Oblast .
Institute for the Study of War
● The control over Severodonetsk passes from hand to hand. Fierce battles are going on for Severodonetsk.
● The Russian army continues unsuccessful attempts to cut Ukrainian communications northeast of Bakhmut

The Guardian: President's Office - To win the war with the Russian Federation, Ukraine needs at least 60 MLRS, and not "a handful promised by the UK and the USA". If we get 60 of these systems (MLRS - ed.), then the Russian troops will be stopped and will not be able to advance. If 40, they will slow down, suffering heavy losses. If 20, they will continue the offensive with greater losses than now".
● Slavyansk may be under siege in a week.
● The enemy's Liman grouping will most likely succeed in capturing Svyatogorsk. And from Izyum, the offensive goes to Barvinkove, in order to cut the road to Slavyansk from there. The concentration of forces allows the Russians to take Slavyansk into an operational encirclement within a week, adviser Arestovich said.
● Russians left Blagodatne, which is located near Kherson.
Ministry of Health: At least 60% of Ukrainians need psychological help. The Ministry notes that the consequences of the war will affect the mental state of citizens for at least 7-10 years.
