8:31 am – Putin: Euro -Atlantic world order has survived
Russia’s President Vladimir Putin joined the Shanghaier Organization for Cooperation (SOZ) in China for a world order that is no longer aligned with Europe and the USA. “The Eurocentric and Euro-Atlantic model has survived,” Putin told the heads of state and government present in the city of Tianjin.

In this context, he also provided the SOZ security alliance in the Eurasian region. His priority is the internal security of its members and security at their external borders. Putin paid tribute to the common defense against extremism and drug trafficking.
The SOZ was founded 24 years ago as an organization for the fight against terrorism and for economic cooperation. In the meantime, her ten states belong to her. Among them are founding countries such as Russia, China and Kazakhstan, but also countries such as India and Pakistan as well as Iran since 2023 and Belarus since 2024.

All circumstances of this terrible murder must be uncovered.”
9:37 p.m. – Selenskyj points out that a meeting between him and Putin should have taken place today
The Ukrainian President Wolodymyr Selenskyj continues to see no willingness to talk to Kremlin chief Vladimir Putin. Two weeks ago, it was announced in Washington that Moscow should be ready for a meeting at the management level “exactly today”, Selenskyj recalled in his evening video address. “But the only thing Russia does is to invest in the further war.”
And Putin only did new excuses during his current visit to China. “This is his favorite sport,” said Selenskyj. The need for a quick end of war is emphasized worldwide. “The only one who wants war is Russia.”
Despite the direct negotiations of the President of Russia and Ukraine expected by Washington, Moscow has so far not been willing to talk. So far there have been only excuses from the Kremlin. Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov recently even emphasized that Putin did not want to speak to Selenskyj because he doubts his legitimacy as President of Ukraine, since despite the past term under war law – according to the Ukrainian constitution – he continues to be at the top of the state in Kiev. Putin himself has been ruling continuously since 2012, also thanks to his favor of changed constitutional determination during the term.
