21 May Russia-Ukraine War
The war in Ukraine can only be resolved through “diplomacy”, President Zelensky says despite a deadlock in negotiations. He says “we want everything to return (to as it was before)” but “Russia does not want that”
*Russia’s military says Mariupol’s Azovstal steelworks has been “completely liberated”, with the last Ukrainian defenders surrendering. The Russian defence ministry said 531 Ukrainian troops left the site last night, but their fates remain unclear
* Turkey’s President Tayyip Erdogan has said he will speak with Finland and Sweden later about their bids to join Nato
* Finland’s state-owned gas operator has confirmed that Russia has switched off the supply to the country because of its refusal to pay in ruble
* Heavy fighting continues in eastern Ukraine, with a child among seven people injured in the city of Lozova after Russian missiles hit a cultural center on Friday.
