We expect the G-7 to urgently tighten sanctions against Moscow, Ukrainian ambassador in Sofia announced
Ukraine has turned the tide of the war and is successfully resisting Russian troops who are exhausted, British intelligence agency (GCHQ) chief Jeremy Fleming said in a statement, according to the BBC.
According to the agency, the Russians are running out of ammunition and the Russian president’s decision to bomb was wrong. The Russian military losses in men and equipment are staggering and all Russian troops’ successes since the first months of the war have been reduced to zero, the note reads.
“We know that Russian commanders realize that their supplies and ammunition are running out. In the absence of effective internal countermeasures, Putin’s decisions have proved wrong. The high stakes strategy leads to strategic errors,” Fleming said. , adding that the mistakes of the Russian president are already visible to Russian citizens.

“We expect the international community and all the people who oppose the barbaric and brutal Russian aggression and the war against Ukraine to tighten and expand sanctions against Russia soon. This is a dire necessity and this is the first thing to do. Second, to provide Ukraine with defensive weapons – first of all air defense systems. To address the issue of closing the skies – what we have been talking about since the beginning of the war and have supported every step that needs to be taken. Third, yes. we receive material, humanitarian and other aid. And fourth, that Russia is limited to the maximum in all respects: economically, politically and militarily “.
Ambassador Moskalenko also commented on Russia’s missile attacks on Ukraine the day after the Crimean bridge exploded.
“According to our data, the attacks against Kiev were already scheduled for October 3 to 4. This was before the explosion of the bridge over the Crimea. The order was to hit densely populated areas and damage important infrastructure. 500 m from my apartment in Kiev where the rockets fell. We have two neighbors who died. My wife was too late to go out and that’s why she was saved, “said the Ukrainian ambassador.
Moskalenko added that “it is clear to everyone” that there is no Bulgarian trace in the explosion of the Crimean bridge. And he added that Sofia can help Kiev with “old Soviet weapons”.
“What Bulgaria can give Ukraine are howitzers and ammunition. And what happened on the Crimean bridge may have been orchestrated by Russia, there is no evidence of that. But it is clear to everyone that the Bulgarian track was invented. to instill certain feelings among the citizens here, “the ambassador said.
