19:24 Ukraine's victory plan contains four main points and one additional one, Zelensky said in an interview with CNN: "I will personally talk to Joe Biden before the Peace Summit about how to strengthen us, so that we are in a strong position. Because diplomatic solutions are good if you are strong. Otherwise, Putin will not even take part in this. And I think that in other circumstances they will not be interested in stopping the war."
Zelensky said that he had prepared several points: "Four of them are the main ones. Plus one that we need after the war. I will share them with President Biden. It is about security, the geopolitical place of Ukraine, very strong military support for Ukraine. And about the fact that we should freely decide how to use this or that thing. It is about the decision on economic support." Zelensky separately noted that he is ready to accept proposals for the plan from Biden's team, provided that they strengthen Ukraine's position.
In addition, Zelensky said that Ukraine cannot equip even four of the 14 necessary brigades. According to the president, the reason for this is the delay in military aid from partners. "Everything is happening very slowly," he reproached his partners.

01:53 The White House is working on a "substantial" aid package for Ukraine, which it plans to announce by the end of the month, White House National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan said. He also commented on aid delays, noting that this is not a question of political will, but of logistics. According to him, the US is literally taking 155 mm shells off the assembly line and delivering them to the front lines as quickly as they can.
00:14 Scholz said that he would not allow Ukraine to use German weapons for strikes deep into Russia, and this decision would remain in force even if other countries decided to lift their restrictions. He also once again emphasized that Germany would not send long-range Taurus missiles to Ukraine.
00:05 Among Russia's allies, North Korea is the one that creates the most problems for Ukraine, Budanov said: "They supply a huge amount of artillery ammunition, which is critically important for Russia. After such deliveries, there is an escalation of hostilities." According to the head of the GUR, it takes eight to nine days from the moment a ship arrives from the DPRK for the ammunition to reach the front. Then, for two weeks, the Russians use it intensively.
"As the head of intelligence, I can say directly: the fact that they are supplying ballistic missiles is unpleasant for us, but these are not the volumes. But as for ammunition, this is critical for us," Budanov noted. He added that intelligence sees the entire route: the ship's arrival at the port, unloading, movement by rail, etc.
