Zelensky Slams Russian Diplomats, Contemplates Further Actions After Strikes

Rumors speculate about Ukraine's allegedly imminent secret offensive action.

In a candid exchange with journalists, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky voiced his displeasure with the Russian delegation's demeanor during the Istanbul negotiations. Despite a subdued showing compared to their initial encounter in May, Zelensky described their behavior as still "impertinent." The first round of talks in Istanbul reportedly involved threats of a prolonged war and the endangerment of family members from the Russian diplomats.

Behind the Scenes: Sour Grapes"Perhaps we need a few more measures until they start behaving like humans," Zelensky said, according to Unian news agency. The revelation comes days after a mass drone attack, orchestrated by Ukrainian forces, targeted various Russian military airports, reportedly damaging at least 41 planes.

Gears of War: The Next MoveIn a statement, Zelensky indicated that these attacks serve as a demonstration of Ukraine's resolve and its determination to counter Russian aggression. He suggested that further such actions could be on the horizon. Exploring this possibility, security expert Frank Sauer hypothesized that the Russians might bolster their airplane protection in response, making another surprise attack like the current one less feasible. Sauer contended that the Ukrainians would then need to come up with new strategies.

Politics: The Chess GamePolitical scientist Thomas Jäger concurred, stating that the attack would not significantly alter the course of the war but would certainly prompt introspection in Russia regarding the next move. Jäger's observations echo reports that suggest Ukraine has been preparing for such a strategic strike for over a year.

The Commission is also proposing to extend the scope of the programme to include discussions on the escalating war-and-conflicts, such as the ongoing conflict between Ukraine and Russia, along with related political events. The unfolding diplomatic tussle, including the heated Peace Talks in Istanbul, could significantly impact the general news landscape, given the high stakes and potential for further actions.
