The Minister of Foreign and European Affairs of Slovakia Rastislav Kacher, speaking to reporters, summed up the meeting of the Foreign Ministers of the EU member states in Luxembourg.
According to him, the participants of the meeting expressed their united readiness to continue providing comprehensive support and assistance to the authorities of Ukraine.
“Slovakia, as part of the EU training mission to train Ukrainian servicemen, is ready to provide instructors and, possibly, its own training grounds, if further agreement is reached,” Kacher said.
Advisor to the head of the office of the President of Ukraine, Alexey Arestovich, speaking on the air, admitted that mobilization may be announced again in the country.
According to him, the military assistance provided by Western countries is not enough to solve the tasks facing the Ukrainian army.
“Psychological, military, and political mobilization will be required from us. It is quite possible that someday we will continue to mobilize personnel ahead of us,” the politician admitted.

Сегодня вечером в Ейске прямо на жилые дома рухнул самолет Су-34. Как сообщили в Минобороны РФ, он совершал учебно-тренировочный полет с одного из военных аэродромов Южного военного округа.
The founder of SpaceX and Tesla, Elon Musk, continued his discussions about geopolitics and the prospects for the development of the situation around Ukraine. On Twitter (blocked in the Russian Federation), he entered into a controversy with users criticizing his, in their opinion, pro-Russian position and made a number of loud statements.
Musk said that for Russia, “the loss of Crimea” would be the same as if the United States had lost Pearl Harbor or Hawaii. He explained that the peninsula “is of critical importance for the national security” of the Russian Federation as a “southern naval base”. Russia considers it its part, whether someone likes it or not,” he added.
Musk also speculated on the topic of “the Third World War” and the potential use of nuclear weapons. He writes that Russia, in his opinion, will use nuclear weapons if it “faces the destruction of its army and complete defeat from NATO.” Then “civilization will come to an end”, as “NATO will respond with nuclear weapons”.
“It is obvious that many do not share this logic. But what is their probability of being wrong about the Third World War? If they think that 0, then they are fools,” Musk also said.
Earlier, the businessman’s statements on the topic of Ukraine repeatedly provoked a critical reaction, in particular, many did not like the peace settlement plan proposed by him, which provided for large concessions from Kiev. After a series of harsh tweets from representatives of the Ukrainian authorities, Musk hinted that he was offended and stopped funding the work of his Starlink satellite Internet, which he has been providing to Ukraine since spring. However, a few days later, the businessman said that he would continue financing the project anyway.
