China has announced its readiness to send peacekeepers to Ukraine, but Ukrainian security agencies have raised concerns about potential espionage in favor of Russia. China insists the mission must have a UN mandate, but both Ukraine and its Western partners remain skeptical. The West is worried that intelligence gathered by peacekeepers could be used against Ukraine in the future.
Turkey has also offered to help by assisting with Black Sea demining and sending military personnel to support peace efforts. According to Ukraine’s ambassador to Turkey, Nariman Dzhelyal, ten countries are currently ready to join a peacekeeping mission.
Meanwhile, Russia has convened its nuclear physicists to discuss unsuccessful tests of the Burevestnik cruise missile. There have been at least 15 failed launches resulting in ecological damage, including increased radiation in Scandinavia. The US has called on Russia to stop these tests.
At the same time, Ukrainian forces in Luhansk have reportedly eliminated individuals involved in war crimes in Bucha, underlining Ukraine’s commitment to accountability for wartime atrocities.
The key diplomatic issue remains security guarantees for Ukraine. Deputy Foreign Minister Kyslytsia stated that documents are being prepared in cooperation with the US, UK, France, Italy, and other partners. The main goal is to avoid repeating failures like those of the Budapest or Istanbul memoranda and ensure the country’s integrity and safety.
According to IRII polling, the vast majority of Ukrainians believe in victory in the war. The author congratulates readers on Flag Day and thanks everyone supporting Ukraine’s military, emphasizing the importance of public scrutiny regarding foreign peacekeepers and future security guarantees.
