Ukraine’s president says Kyiv’s forces are steadily pushing Russian troops away from Kharkiv, the nation’s second largest city.
Ukraine “appears to have won the Battle of Kharkiv”, according to the Institute for the Study of War.
There’s evidence that “Moscow is focused on conducting an orderly withdrawal and prioritising getting Russians back home before allowing proxy forces to enter Russia, rather than trying to hold its positions near the city,” ISW said. India prohibited most wheat exports that the world was counting on to alleviate supply constraints sparked by the war in Ukraine, which has largely halted Kyiv’s ability to ship.
Exports will still be allowed to countries that require wheat for food security needs and will be based on the requests of their governments, India said. A summit with Southeast Asian leaders organised and hosted by Biden concluded with a group statement that omitted any condemnation of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
Adeyemo met with representatives from several foreign financial institutions and “conveyed the risks of facilitating sanctions evasions,” including the risk of falling under US sanctions if the banks provided material support to a person or entity that the US has already penalised, according to a treasury department press release about the meeting.
