“Do you know what the Oleshki morgue is?” – What a humanitarian disaster looks like

Only a few kilometres separate Russian-occupied Oleshky from the Ukrainian-held bank of the Dnipro, where food and medicine are available. In Oleshky itself, finding either can cost a life. Residents and their relatives describe mined streets, drones overhead and people surviving on what they can grow in their gardens. Some of the dead cannot even be retrieved from the roads.

Grain bypasses Greater Odesa. Which route leaves the smallest carbon footprint?

The war in Ukraine is forcing grain to take a detour. The southern corridor minimises its carbon footprint, but as volumes rise, resilience also requires longer routes to be brought into use.

Three dangerous illusions about ending the war in Ukraine

The western misjudgment about ending the war in Ukraine stems from projecting its desires onto Russia’s reality, rather than adapting its own assumptions and capabilities to meet the evolving threat. Without this transformation, any pause in conflict only benefits Moscow, turning ceasefires into strategic weapons rather than neutral respites.

From support to strategy: Europe’s unfinished role in Ukraine

Europe has provided unprecedented support to Ukraine since 2022. Yet as the war enters a prolonged phase, the absence of a coordinated long-term framework risks turning this effort into a reactive and fragmented response.

Curbing China’s sway in Eastern Europe

In the evolving landscape of international relations, it has become increasingly clear that the US and Europe must join forces to address China's growing influence in Eastern Europe. The recent Russian aggression against Ukraine has reshaped regional dynamics and intensified the global struggle for power and influence.

The Russian full-scale aggression against Ukraine had an evident impact on regional and global ties in Eastern Europe. While Russia was seeking opportunities to attract more allies in its war of aggression, like Iran and North Korea, its major objective internationally was to create an alliance with China. However, China sees the Russia-Ukraine war as an opportunity to change the status quo and raise the stakes to outlast the United States economically and militarily.

Germany’s robust indecisiveness or winking at Russia?

As Ukraine faces renewed Russian offensives in spring, Kyiv is more reliant than ever on its allies in the West. Despite this, Germany continues to avoid concrete decisions on providing weaponry. Berlin must now take decisive action if it is to remain the so-called unofficial leader of Europe.

A weaker Russia provides a vacuum for the EU to exploit in Eurasia

Russia’s increasing isolation on the global stage is creating opportunities for the EU across Eurasia. This is most clear in the South Caucasus, where frustration over Moscow’s actions may allow Brussels to play a key stabilising role.
