Latest Updates on war in Ukraine


Ukraine as on day 158 in tatters. According to the UN estimates of about 9.9 million have fled Ukraine mostly in Poland, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania, Moldova, Belarus and Russia. The first shipment of grain is expected to leave Ukraine as early on August 1st. A deal was brokered for an uninterrupted shipments of grain leaving Ukraine in the Black sea. Ukraine's Zelensky says grains have been halved because of the war. The deal is expected to last for four months. The war has hit badly economies that have so long been dependent on ukraine's supply of grain. There are no early indications of either sides giving into or giving up. Russia seems impertinent and the cries seem to go unheard daily by russia. On the other hand Russia hasn't achieved any of it's objectives. It's likely to end only as a tirade of war of words just as it started as russian military exercise prior to February 23rd. The real victor will be russia's biggest mistake of the decade. This war will not last more than four months from now in my opinion. Beyond this there's no much scope for this to go on. Russia is today almost on it's knees, before any more shame for Russia, it will begin to withdraw to it's pre-feb 23rd positions. Another four months is the final position as on today this is being written.

Kamala Harris: Missing the Moment to Define Her Leadership

Transcript: The recent debate featuring Kamala Harris and Donald Trump was an important moment for the Democratic nominee to solidify her position as a leader. Yet, instead of seizing the opportunity to project confidence and vision, Kamala seemed to falter, weighed down by personal fears and memories of long-standing struggles. A key point that stood out was how Kamala Harris seemed to forget the very words she once made her mantra in her career as a prosecutor: "Kamala Harris for the people." These five words, often repeated by her during her time in courtrooms, represented her fight for justice and equality. However, during the debate, this sense of purpose seemed absent.
