Putin Says Russia Creating Buffer Zone Along Ukrainian Border

  • On Thursday, President Vladimir Putin stated that Russian military units are establishing a protective zone near the border with Ukraine in the Sumy region.
  • This followed earlier discussions in March and recent advances in the Kursk region, as Russia aims to prevent future Ukrainian incursions and secure border villages.
  • Russian paratroopers have advanced in Sumy’s border forest belts, overcoming Ukrainian resistance, while some contested zones remain amid ongoing fighting near the border.
  • Last week in Turkey, Kyiv and Moscow held direct talks for the first time in three years, agreeing on a prisoner exchange involving 1,000 people each, expected to occur on Friday.
  • Putin emphasized restoring destroyed infrastructure in border areas, and Ukraine’s Zelensky said they are working to ensure the prisoner exchange succeeds amid ongoing tensions.
