Medvedev names the scenarios for the end of the war in Ukraine
For former Russian President Medvedev, Ukraine is a „dying country”. For him, there are three possible scenarios for how the Ukraine war could end.
MOSCOW/FRANKFURT – Ukraine’s war continues unabated. Ukraine continues to prepare against Russian forces. On Thursday (May 25), Kyiv confirmed that „a counter-offensive is underway”. His Excellency President Volodymyr Zelensky stated that the recent attacks by Russia were „unsuccessful”. The end of Russia’s war of aggression is still far from imminent.
According to its own statements, Russia will only be willing to make a lasting peace in Ukraine after it annexes most of the attacked neighboring country. On the other hand, the deputy head of the Russian Security Council, former President Dmitry Medvedev, outlined three possible scenarios for the outcome of the war on Thursday. He referred to the division of the country between Russia and the European Union.

In Medvedev’s preferred alternative, the western regions of Ukraine would be assigned to several EU countries and the eastern regions to Russia, while residents of the central regions voted to join Russia. With this outcome, „the conflict will end with sufficient guarantees that it will not resume in the long term,” Medvedev wrote in the Telegram online service.
However, if the part of Ukraine that remained independent joins the European Union or NATO, a renewal of hostilities is expected, „with the potential to quickly turn into a full-fledged third world war,” in the words of Kremlin President Vladimir Putin. Confidant/secretary.
According to Medvedev, a „temporarily” acceptable scenario for Moscow would see Ukraine divided entirely between EU countries and Russia during the war, while a Ukrainian government-in-exile would be set up in Europe.

Variants other than these three are not realistic, Medvedev claimed, „it’s clear to everyone.” Although some in the West are „uncomfortable” to admit it, the former Russian president continued. He described Ukraine as a „dying country” that would collapse as a result of the loss of a military conflict. On the other hand, Yevgeny Prigozhin recently warned of Russia’s defeat in a video interview – and once again did not back down with criticism and threats against the Kremlin. (mbr/dpa)

China is angry: The US destroyer USS Halsey entered Chinese territorial waters „without permission.” The US Navy waves it off.
BEIJING – Against the backdrop of increasing tensions in the South China Sea China On Friday, the United States responded with sharp words to the passage of a US Navy ship near a group of disputed islands. Military spokesman Tian Junli said on Friday that “the US actions seriously violate China’s sovereignty and security.” Thus, the United States creates “security risks in the South China Sea” and is “the greatest destroyer of peace and stability in the region.”
According to military spokesman Tian, the missile destroyer USS Halsey entered Chinese territorial waters near the Xisha Islands “illegally and without permission from the Chinese authorities.” „Xisha Islands” is the Chinese term for the Paracel Islands. China sent naval and air forces to „track and monitor” the ship „in accordance with laws and regulations” and „issued an alert to redirect it away.”
Tensions in the South China Sea: US confirms passage of USS Halsey
The US Navy confirmed the ship’s passage, saying it „asserted navigational rights and freedoms in the South China Sea near the Paracel Islands.” “Unlawful and extensive maritime claims in the South China Sea pose a serious threat to freedom of the seas,” she said.
China has established a number of military bases on the Paracel Islands, although Vietnam and Taiwan also claim sovereignty over the island chain. The United States and its allies frequently send warships to the region to bolster their claim to freedom of passage.
Meanwhile, Taiwan’s air force conducted a military exercise in the Penghu Islands, which are located a few kilometers from the Chinese coast and are administered by Taiwan. Several fighter jets fired live ammunition, including missiles and US-made laser-guided bombs, according to video footage distributed by Taiwan’s military news agency. These were „routine training” for fighter pilots in which they practiced their „skills in precision strikes in air combat.”
The exercises come ten days before the inauguration of Taiwan’s new president, Lai Ching-te, who won the elections last January and whom Beijing describes as a „dangerous separatist.”
China increases its pressure on Taiwan
China views Taiwan as a breakaway province that should be reunited with the mainland – by military force if necessary. In recent years, China has increased its pressure on Taiwan, regularly sending fighter jets and warships near the island.
Meanwhile, the Philippines and the United States concluded joint military exercises in areas near disputed maritime areas. Exercises Balikatan („Shoulder to Shoulder” in the language widely spoken in the Philippines, Tagalog) began on 22 April and also involved one hundred Australian soldiers. (AFP)

Hundreds of bodies found: The United Nations calls for clarification regarding mass graves in Gaza

Graves containing hundreds of bodies were found near Nasser Hospital in Khan Yunis and Al-Shifa Hospital in recent weeks. The UN Security Council is now demanding that investigators be given unfettered access to conduct an investigation.
The UN Security Council in New York demands clarifications about the mass graves discovered in the Gaza Strip. The United Nations said, „Members of the Security Council stressed the need for accountability for violations of international law and called for allowing investigators unhindered access to all mass grave sites in Gaza.”
The UN’s most powerful body has been deeply concerned about the discoveries since the end of April. Graves containing several hundred bodies have been found near Nasser Hospital in Khan Yunis and Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City in recent weeks.
The UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, Volker Türk, was horrified at the time and called for an independent investigation into the deaths. Hospitals enjoy very special protection under international humanitarian law. According to Türk’s office, which cited information from Civil Defense, which is controlled by the armed Hamas movement, some of the bodies had their hands bound.
Israel denies these accusations
The European Union also called for an independent investigation. Peter Stano, spokesman for European Union foreign policy chief Josep Borrell, said: “This is something that prompts us to demand an independent investigation into all suspicions and all circumstances.” The impression was created that “violations of international human rights may have occurred.”
The Israeli side said that the allegations that Israeli forces buried the bodies of Palestinians there were baseless. Israeli soldiers only examined the bodies in the grave, looking for Israeli hostages.

Delay due to breakdown
The Bushman government plane returns to the parking lot

German government aircraft are notoriously prone to breakdowns. Now a technical problem spoils the Federal Minister of Justice’s return flight from Venice shortly before the weekend. Its mechanism must return to the parking position. An hour delay is expected.
Federal Minister of Justice Marco Bushmann and his accompanying delegation were initially unable to leave Venice after the conclusion of the G7 Justice Ministers’ meeting. The reason for this was a technical problem with a government plane. The Minister and his accompanying delegation learned that a delay of several hours was expected after the Global 5000 aircraft was forced to return to the parking lot shortly before its scheduled takeoff at noon. The return flight to Germany was scheduled for early evening with a replacement plane that was supposed to come from Cologne. The exact cause of the collapse is not yet known.
At a meeting in Venice, justice ministers from G7 countries discussed how judicial authorities can use artificial intelligence in a legally safe way. According to the participants, the topic of the two-day meeting in Italy was also the question of where the boundaries for the use of machine learning and robotics should be formulated.
Collapses, collapses, collapses…
Malfunctions on government aircraft are not uncommon. Last year, Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock had to cancel a government trip to Australia, New Zealand and Fiji over one.
At the end of 2018, German Chancellor Angela Merkel was involved in a serious accident when she was on her way to the G20 summit in Argentina on the Konrad Adenauer government plane. A faulty component – a central switching unit in the plane’s onboard electronics – paralyzed two radio systems that are supposed to replace each other in emergency situations. The plane that took off from Berlin had to turn back.
After a general repair of the government plane for four months, another malfunction occurred on the first official flight in April 2019. After a nine-hour flight from Berlin to New York with Federal Foreign Minister Heiko Maas on board, a tire exploded during landing so that the Airbus A340 was unable to reach Parking on its own. It is now known that the Konrad Adenauer government plane, which has become known as the Breakdown Plane, will be scrapped.
