Downing Street said the additional troop deployment is intended to reinforce NATO’s defences and underpin the UK’s support for its Nordic and Baltic partners.
The measures would include restrictions on the refinancing of Russian sovereign debt, financial sanctions, and the singling out of individuals and entities close to the Kremlin.
Speaking to reporters Friday, President Joe Biden added that 'not a lot' of soldiers would be involved 'in the near term' and did not name any countries where troops might be deployed.
There is a plausible scenario that defies the seemingly unshakable logic of Putin's planned invasion of Ukraine and plays out as a media phenomenon rather than a hot war.
Over the years, Putin has always had the upper hand tactically vis-à-vis the West because he’s had what’s called escalation dominance. But experts say he may have gone a big step too far.
Ukraine is India's biggest supplier of sunflower oil. Any escalation in Russia-Ukraine tension is likely to hit edible oil prices in the country as 70% of its requirement is imported.
US President said there has been no change in the posture of the Russian forces, who are along the Belarus border. White House said one lakh Russian troops are at the border.
Over generations, Bihar’s bane has been its utter lack of urbanisation. But now, even Bihar is urbanising. Or let’s say, rurbanising. Two decades under Nitish Kumar have created a new elite in its cities.
Indian govt officials last month skipped Turkish National Day celebrations in Delhi, in a message to Ankara following its support for Islamabad, particularly during Operation Sindoor.
Bihar is blessed with a land more fertile for revolutions than any in India. Why has it fallen so far behind then? Constant obsession with politics is at the root of its destruction.
