Ukraine’s counter-offensive is underway. What will it bring?

Published

on

The Ukrainian president says that offensive and defensive actions are being conducted against Russian forces, asserting that his top commanders are maintaining a positive attitude despite intense fighting on the front lines.

In a Kyiv news conference with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, the Ukrainian leader responded to a question about Russian President Vladimir Putin’s comment a day earlier that the Ukrainian counteroffensive had begun and Ukrainian forces had suffered “significant losses.”

In Ukraine, Zelennsky said, “counteroffensive and defensive actions are underway.”. I will not speak about which stage or phase they are in.”

“I am in touch with our commanders of different directions every day,” he added, citing the names of five of Ukraine’s top military leaders. “Everyone is positive. Pass this on to Putin.”

There had been 34 clashes in Ukraine’s industrial east on Saturday, according to the General Staff. No details were provided, but it said Russian forces were launching air and artillery strikes near Kherson and Zaporizhzhia in southern Ukraine.

While Ukrainian authorities haven’t announced a full-blown counteroffensive, some Western analysts say fiercer fighting and the use of reserve troops suggest it is underway. There are growing expectations about when the high-tech, top-of-the-line military equipment supplied by the West to Ukraine will be used, and to what effect against dug-in Russian lines.

What Australia can learn from NZ’s supermarket inquiry

Published

on

Coles and Woolworths, two of Australia’s largest supermarket chains, are about to face a Senate inquiry that aims to scrutinise their market dominance and business practices.

The inquiry’s parallels with a past New Zealand investigation highlight the growing concern over the duopoly’s impact on consumers and smaller businesses.

The Senate inquiry, set to begin next month, comes as a response to mounting public pressure and allegations of anti-competitive behavior in the grocery sector.

New Zealand example

Similar concerns led New Zealand to conduct its own inquiry into the supermarket industry back in 2019, resulting in recommendations for increased regulation and transparency.

The central question here is whether Coles and Woolworths wield too much power in the Australian market, potentially stifling competition and limiting choices for consumers.

With the New Zealand example as a cautionary tale, many are wondering if this inquiry will result in meaningful changes to the Australian grocery landscape.

Elon Musk has thrown a verbal jab at former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley, declaring her political campaign as “dead” on X.

The unexpected comment from the Tesla and SpaceX CEO has ignited a new wave of discussion within the political sphere, leaving many wondering about the implications for Haley’s political future.

In a tweet that garnered significant attention, Musk criticized Haley’s recent policy stance, writing, “Nikki Haley’s campaign is dead on arrival if she continues to ignore the urgency of climate change.

We need leaders who prioritize the planet’s future.” The tech mogul’s remarks come as Haley, a prominent Republican figure, has been exploring the possibility of running for president in the upcoming election cycle.

Musk’s statement has reignited the debate over climate change within the Republican Party, with many conservatives emphasizing economic interests over environmental concerns.

This raises questions about whether Musk’s endorsement or critique could influence the GOP’s stance on climate issues and potentially impact the 2024 presidential race.
