Ukraine: The Latest Folgen

Day 1,300.Today, we unpack what happened in Romania over the weekend, where a Russian drone flew into its airspace for almost an hour. And we look at the fall out responses from Nato & Europe since last week’s similar incursion in Poland. Meanwhile in Russia, Ukrainian saboteurs derailed two trains over the weekend. Finally, we discuss Russia’s economy and oil industry and zoom in on India and whether, as Trump put it a few weeks, it is indeed lost to ‘deepest, darkest China.’Contributors:Adélie Pojzman-Pontay (Reporter and Producer). @adeliepjz on X.Dominic Nicholls (Associate Editor of Defence). @DomNicholls on X.Dia Chakravarty (Contributing Editor). @@DiaChakravarty on X.Content Referenced:Danish govt intends to disregard laws and regulations to build a Ukrainian weapons factory in Denmarkhttps://www.dr.dk/nyheder/indland/med-ny-magt-i-haanden-vil-regeringen-se-bort-fra-over-20-love-og-regler-bygge‘Opinion is shifting towards this idea,’ says Polish FM Sikorski on NATO closing the sky over western Ukrainehttps://kyivindependent.com/in-an-interview-in-kyiv-polish-fm-sikorski-reflects-on-russias-drone-attack-on-his-country-natos-response-and-the-shifting-alliance-with-ukraine/Putin's clash with Russia's top banker shows increasing disconnect over war economy, experts sayhttps://kyivindependent.com/putin-top-banker-clash-over-russias-technical-stagnation-as-war-costs-mount/SIGN UP TO THE NEW ‘UKRAINE: THE LATEST’ WEEKLY NEWSLETTER:https://secure.telegraph.co.uk/customer/secure/newsletter/ukraine/  Each week, Dom Nicholls and Francis Dearnley answer your questions, provide recommended reading, and give exclusive analysis and behind-the-scenes insights – plus maps of the frontlines and diagrams of weapons to complement our daily reporting.
