We wish the Prime Minister and the British people every success in addressing the challenges of today. Britain has always been one of the global leaders. We are ready to work together in all possible formats. We highly appreciate the UK’s political, defense, and values-based support.

Brave The New World: Ukraine hit the Moscow region with 400+ drones. NATO pledged 70 billion euros for 2026 and “at least equivalent” for 2027. The US is selling 10 billion in weapons. Nobody in the coverage asked where it ends. CyberWatch: ⚠️ Russian intelligence is hacking exposed IP cameras across NATO countries & Ukraine to spy on military logistics, weapons shipments & troop movements. In Ukraine, feeds are even used for targeting strikes. Mostly default passwords + outdated firmware. Read: Limassol’s only documentary festival unveils 21st edition line-up – Philenews Offensive Lab: At least one Russian intelligence service is systematically hijacking internet-connected security cameras across Europe and Ukraine, using the feeds to watch military transport routes, weapons shipments bound for Kyiv, and the locations of Ukrainian troops. That is the finding I am grateful to the Holy See’s Secretary for Relations with States, Archbishop Paul Richard Gallagher, and to Pope Leo XIV for their support for Ukraine. The Holy See’s delegation was in Kyiv right during Russia’s massive attack on our people. Russia does not want to stop these attacks, which is why it is so important to keep working for peace. One format that could help make this possible is a meeting at the leaders’ level. I thank the Vatican for its readiness to host such a meeting and to continue making every effort to help make it happen. We discussed the work of the Church in Ukraine. We deeply value our clergy, who support both our warriors and civilians and help people endure these 22,000+ ground robots contracted for the Defence Forces in 2026. That’s nearly double all of last year, with more to come. All made in Ukraine. Thousands already delivered: logistics, engineering, combat. Fewer soldiers in the danger zone. More lives saved.
