Ukraine’s president has sharply criticized the suspension of Western sanctions against Russia, calling it a dangerous step that undermines pressure on Moscow to halt its military actions. Russian officials, meanwhile, have welcomed the move as a victory, though both sides are preparing for renewed fighting as winter approaches. The shift in sanctions policy raises concerns about the stability of international efforts to curb Russia’s aggression. Analysts warn that the decision could embolden further military escalation in the coming months.
