Ukraine marked the third anniversary of the Russian invasion with Western leaders visiting Kyiv to show support. The US has shifted its policy, with President Trump calling Ukrainian President Zelenskyy a dictator and suggesting Ukraine is to blame for the war.
The European Union has imposed new sanctions on Russia, targeting its “shadow fleet” of ships, and Britain has also imposed sanctions aimed at disrupting Russia’s military supply chains. Diplomatic efforts are underway, with EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas traveling to Washington for talks with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
