Quote: "Today, I spoke with the Head of the Foreign Intelligence Service Ivashchenko and instructed him to work more actively with partners who can provide more assistance to Ukraine in terms of weapons and investment we need.

We clearly see our partners' intentions and capabilities – and we will work with them in a way that ensures our shared defence potential in Europe is not wasted."

Details: Ivashchenko reported that Russia is employing its shadow fleet tankers not only to finance the war, but also to carry out sabotage and destabilising activities across Europe.

Quote: "Recent launches of drones from tankers are one such example. We share the information we have with our partners, and it is crucial that they take tangible steps in response to Russia. We are working towards this at all levels, and there will be further meetings, there will be negotiations with our partners, both public and behind closed doors."
