Ukraine's parliament, the Verkhovna Rada, has dismissed Ruslan Kravchenko from the position of prosecutor general just 15 months after he was appointed. Kravchenko fled Ukraine over the weekend, claiming he is on a "business trip," amid a corruption probe focused on people close

"Putin is prepared to prosecute this war for years to come, not because his advisers are promising him a quick victory, although they may be. The war is embedded in Putinism, just as Putinism is embedded in the war. His governing system gives him the freedom to do what he wants,

"The Sonderstab Ukraine — special staff for Ukraine — is the engine behind Germany’s €11.5bn-a-year military support for Kyiv. Unlike the sprawling bureaucracy behind procurement for the German armed forces, this small, low-profile unit prides itself on striking deals to buy

My essay with M Lipman on the current status of Putin and Russian politics. Stresses here and there but the system, entirely oriented toward prolonging the war, is not facing serious internal challenges. U.S. and other policymakers should plan accordingly.

A busy start to the political week here in Kyiv: Ukraine's prosecutor general, Ruslan Kravchenko, appointed by Zelenskyy last year with backing of his then-chief of staff now accused of corruption Andriy Yermak, has resigned and fled Ukraine after becoming embroiled in a

@ChristopherJM @FT I am presuming that since Ukraine has continued to target Russian oil refinieries, including last night - they rejected Vance and Trump's demands.

Trump is confirming our @FT scoop last month. My understanding from senior Ukrainian officials today is that what Trump is referring to when he said “We spoke to Mr. Zelenskyy about it. There are plenty of other targets. Don’t hit diesel fuel, because that’s hurting, that’s

@ChristopherJM There are lot of ambiguities surrounding these discussions except for the fact that Witkoff is a bonafide moron! That part is unambiguous and very clear.

Expectations in Kyiv for the impending visit of Trump envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are extremely low. While the Zelenskyy administration believes it is important for them to get a real sense of the impact of Russia’s war and is grateful for their visit — finally, after

For weeks, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner have wavered over whether they would visit Kyiv. This whole week, they appeared to commit to a visit one hour, only to backtrack the next and tell Zelenskyy’s office that they were still considering it. I’ve been hearing about it from ht

Ukraine is a country of peace. And we truly respect the fact that our partners want to help bring this war to an end. We support every such effort. When the Americans asked us to pause strikes on Moscow and St. Petersburg on August 25, 26, and 27, we observed that pause. There ht

Big statement from Zelenskyy, who appears to warn of unprecedented amounts of Ukrainian drones heading into Russia soon: “We in Ukraine do not want innocent lives to be lost. That is why we are warning our partners: the safe days in Russia’s skies are over.”

@ChristopherJM Fedorov is actually a genuis for how much he has rallied Silicon Valley and American elites behind Ukraine. I don't know why people are critisizing his trip to Washington - if he can procure the best tech and investment for Ukraine, we should be cheering that!

@ChristopherJM Ukraine had already a signed memorandum of cooperation with Palantir in 2023, expanding it in 2026 with Brave1 Dataroom. So this may simply be a further development of a state agreement.

@ChristopherJM Ugh... Tentatively supporting Fedorov's efforts to create a high-tech defense related company, purportedly to help Ukraine for sure. But his partnership with the data sucking, Trump supporting Palantir is highly questionable and concerning.
