As part of the Western Balkans block waiting for EU-membership, Serbia is caught in a geostrategic rivalry between its Western allies and Russia. Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine brought fresh political momentum to the European Union and its plans for enlargement in the Western Balkans. "I see the European Union more ready for the Balkans than the Balkans for the European Union," Miroslav Lajčák, EU Special Representative for the Belgrade-Pristina Dialogue and Western Balkans, told CNBC last month. Within days of Russia's invasion, Ukraine, neighboring Moldova and, soon after, nearby Georgia applied for EU candidate status — which they were granted in quick succession. "Now, it's very clear that the European Union is serious."

Wagner mercenary leader Yevgeny Prigozhin appears to have resurfaced on social media after being exiled to Belarus since his failed insurrection 11 days ago. A voice recording said to be of Prigozhin was posted on the Grey Zone Telegram page — an account supportive of Russian mercenaries, with more than 500,000 subscribers. "I want you to understand that our "March of Justice" was aimed at fighting traitors and mobilizing our society. NBC's Moscow bureau said the voice does sound like Prigozhin's, but that he is speaking more slowly than usual. The mercenary leader has not been seen in public since the uprising 11 days ago.

In an exclusive interview with Reuters, former U.S. President Donald Trump said that Russia's President Putin had been "somewhat weakened" by Wagner forces' aborted mutiny over the weekend. Trump, a longtime admirer of Putin, said however that the Russian president remained "strong," and noted that an alternative leadership could be "better, but it could be far worse." "You could say that he's [Putin] still there, he's still strong, but he certainly has been I would say somewhat weakened at least in the minds of a lot of people," he told Reuters in a telephone interview on Thursday. Trump also said that now was the time for the U.S. to broker a peace agreement between Moscow and Kyiv. You need the right mediator, or negotiator, and we don't have that right now," he said.

NATO member states must agree on a clear route for Ukraine's membership of the military alliance when they meet at a summit next month, Estonia's Prime Minister Kaja Kallas said on Thursday. "The only security guarantee that really works, and the cheapest security guarantee that really works is NATO membership," Kallas told reporters ahead of a summit with other European Union government leaders in Brussels. Speaking at the same summit earlier Thursday, Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte said that the EU still needed to decide what further security assurances it wishes to provide to Ukraine. We will have to discuss how far it goes, and if it would be lethal or non-lethal support. And we have to take into account that several EU countries are not a member of NATO," Rutte said.

The International Monetary Fund's managing director Kristalina Georgieva said Tuesday that Ukraine is fighting not just in defense of its national sovereignty but to protect the international rule of law. "In Ukraine, people strongly believe they're fighting not just for themselves, they're fighting for the right of every nation to exist and run its own affairs," the director of the United Nations financial institution said at the World Government Summit in Dubai. Georgieva said that a problem which is Ukraine's problem today can tomorrow "be a problem for many other countries," adding that it is in "everybody's interest" to defend a rules-based global system. "If we blow up rule of law internationally, how are we going to keep it domestically?" "It is for everyone, everybody's interest to defend it."

Moscow said Monday that its forces had pushed forward a few kilometers along Ukraine's frontline, while Kyiv said its troops had repelled Russian attacks in various areas. Much of the fighting was concentrated around the eastern city of Bakhmut, with 16 nearby settlements having been bombarded, according to Ukrainian military. Russia's Defence Ministry said Russian troops had managed to advance 2 km (1.2 miles) to the west in four days. However, it did not say which part of the long frontline, encompassing several Ukrainian regions in the south and east, had moved. "The Russian servicemen broke the enemy's resistance and advanced several kilometres deeper into its echeloned defence," it said.
