Ukrainian crisis

The Russian Defense Ministry reported that the Ukrainian Armed Forces lost more than 68,000 servicemen in August.

In July, the Ukrainian Armed Forces suffered losses of about 61,000 servicemen, the Russian Defense Ministry said.

In addition, Russian units liberated the settlement of Vyemka in the Luhansk People’s Republic and the settlement of Ptichye in the Donetsk People’s Republic.

Italian Defense Minister Guido Crosetto told the international security forum Globsec that the Italian company involved in supplying the Samp-T air defense system to Ukraine went on vacation in August, delaying the transfer of the system.

“I am in discussions with Italian companies because I need to deliver the Samp-T air defense system to Ukraine, and the Italian company that was supposed to put it in order closed in August due to the holidays,” he explained.

Russia

Russia will change its nuclear doctrine based on an analysis of recent conflicts and Western actions in connection with the special operation in Ukraine, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov said.

He explained that the process of finalising the relevant document is currently underway, but it is too early to talk about specific dates for its completion.

According to the “Fundamentals of Russian State Policy in the Sphere of Nuclear Deterrence of 2020,” the use of nuclear weapons by Russia is possible if the enemy uses these or other types of weapons of mass destruction against Russia and its allies, or if reliable information is received about the launch of ballistic missiles to attack Russia and its allies, the enemy’s impact on objects necessary for the response of nuclear forces, as well as in case of aggression against Russia using conventional weapons, when the very existence of the state is threatened.

World

Polish President Andrzej Duda, in an interview with Republika TV channel, rejected the claim by former German foreign intelligence chief August Hanning that the Polish leader had agreed with Vladimir Zelensky to blow up the Nord Stream and Nord Stream 2 gas pipelines.

“I found the statements by the former head of German foreign intelligence on Nord Stream and Nord Stream 2 to be politically absurd,” Duda said.

Earlier, Hanning told German media that Zelensky and Duda had probably agreed to undermine Nord Stream, as this terrorist attack could not have been a private initiative.

Taiwan’s military will nearly quintuple its order to buy the Stinger man-portable air defense system from the United States. According to the Taipei Shibao newspaper, the value of the deal will rise from $418 million to more than $2 billion.

Initially, it was planned to buy 500 Stinger MANPADS missiles, 178 launchers and 170 sets of “friend or foe” identification systems. Now the island’s armed forces intend to add about two thousand more missiles and five hundred launchers to the order. The United States has already approved increasing the scale of the deal, the newspaper notes.

The first batch of Stingers is expected to be delivered to Taiwan next year. The MANPADS will enter service with ground forces, marines, military police units guarding Taipei and in naval and coast guard garrisons on disputed islands controlled by Taiwan in the South China Sea.

The second batch will be transferred by 2031 and will enter the arsenal of the Armed Forces.

Swiss authorities are advised to reconsider their traditional policy of neutrality and start working on a “common defence potential” with the EU and NATO, writes Politico, citing an expert report addressed to the Swiss government.

Experts propose increasing the country’s defence budget to 1% of GDP by 2030. Switzerland currently allocates 0.76% to defence.

Furthermore, it is recommended to allow the re-export of weapons to countries involved in armed conflicts, which is currently prohibited by Swiss law.
