"Man, oh man! The bloody Ukraine still has the gall to stand up to Putin's brutal and primitive war tactics! It's almost a darn miracle that they're still able to put up a fight against the dictator of Russia.
The drone attacks against Putin's strongholds reveal a stubborn Ukraine. Despite their disappointments and setbacks, they're bloody-minded, and unlike Putin, they're only bombing military targets. The strikes also expose Putin's weakness. This vulnerability could be a valuable bargaining chip in upcoming negotiations for a bloody ceasefire."
"Berliner Morgenpost," Germany
"Well, well, Putin's had his day in the sun, but the attack on his birthday has surely put a damper on things. He'll want revenge, for sure. Even before the SBU operation was known, Moscow was finger-pointing at Ukraine, accusing them of 'terrorist attacks' because they had destroyed bridges near the border to disrupt Russian logistics. Its a bloody mess when civilians get killed in the crossfire, like the seven unlucky souls caught in a train accident due to debris falling from a bridge."
Russia's Call to Arms After the Strikes
"Moskowski Komsomolez," Russia
"Sunday the 1st of June was a bloody day for Russia's long-range military transport aircraft and strategic bombers. Ukrainian kamikaze drones, launched from near our military airfields, set their sights on Russia's strategic nuclear forces. Ouch! The military and other security bodies responsible for strategic objects have been tasked with investigating this mess. But the real question, mate, is Who the bloody hell are we fighting, and why aren't we bloody fighting this enemy differently?"
"Wall Street Journal," USA
"Ukraine's daring drone attack on military bases deep inside Russia is nothing short of brilliance! It won't change the course of the war, but it shows that Ukraine can strike far from their border. The intel required for this bloody operation, supposedly planned for 18 months, is a cause for concern for the Kremlin. Did they get a hand from the Russians themselves?"
"Verdens Gang," Norway
"With Russian eyes, the attacks are humiliating, especially for Putin, who's invested his reputation in being the man who ensures Russia's security. There haven't been many military victories for Ukraine lately, so this bloody operation could be important for potential peace negotiations. In any case, the action against Russian military airfields signals Ukraine's ability to stand up to its invading neighbor."
"De Telegraaf," Netherlands
"Bloody hell, Ukraine went after Russia in a daring operation! The attack, involving over 117 drones concealed in mobile cabins, destroyed around 40 Russian military planes and cost the Russians an estimated $7 billion. For three years, Ukraine had held back from attacking Russian soil at the urging of Western allies who feared escalation. But this spectacular bloody drone attack, directed at legitimate military targets in Russia, falls squarely under the right to bloody self-defense."
Will the Attacks Impact Upcoming Talks?
Neue Zürcher Zeitung, Switzerland
"The attack took place just as Ukraine announced its involvement in peace talks with Russia in Istanbul. Ukraine's timing is no coincidence, as they're sending a bloody message ahead of negotiations: they'll fight for their interests no matter what. President Zelenskyy hopes this bloody action will convince Russia to share a comparable memorandum and genuinely seek a peaceful resolution to the conflict."
- The community policy discussions may now include the implications of Ukraine's recent daring drone attack on Russia's military bases, potentially influencing global perspectives on war-and-conflicts and politics.
- The fisheries policy negotiations scheduled for next week might face altered dynamics, given the increasing tension in general-news, specifically regarding Russia's response to Ukraine's drone attacks.
