The event is preparing for "Extreme Tactics" by Putin through the Counter -offensive of the Armed Forces - The Guardian
Thus, at the Summit of Foreign Ministers of the Great Seven in Japan, representatives of the United Kingdom stated that Russia was expecting "extreme tactics" from Russia in their efforts to maintain the territory of Ukraine. Last month, the Russian expatriate Dmitry Medvedev stated that Moscow was ready to respond to Ukrainians using "absolutely any weapon" if Kiev tries to return Crimea.
"It seems that in Moscow it was acknowledged that her troops may soon be in defense in Ukraine, as Russia has slowed down," the newspaper said. Representatives of the G7 stated that during the negotiations there was an "open exchange of opinions" on the approach to the Ukrainian conflict, including "future prospects" of termination of the war, which, according to Risha Sakak, will eventually end at the table of negotiations.
At the G7 summit, the ministers confirmed their commitment to "strengthen, complete coordination and" sanctions against Russia, agreeing to be more coordinated to prevent evasion and fight with third parties that supply weapons to Moscow. Recall that ISW analysts believe that the meeting of Putin and the head of the Ministry of Defense of China Lee Shanf did not deepen the cooperation between Russia and China.
