В разговорах о будущем России обычно обсуждают выборы, Конституцию и смену власти. Но самый острый конфликт может развернуться вокруг того, у кого больше прав определять, по какому пути пойдет страна. Это участники сопротивления, рискнувшие всем, в том числе домом и самыми близкими связями? Или те, кто даже в условиях войны и диктатуры пытался сохранить жизнь и собственность внутри России? Журналист Максим Трудолюбов объясняет, каким бывает гражданство — основанным на моральном служении и на частной собственности, — и о том, как исходя из этого может быть устроен послепутинский и послевоенный транзит.

На третий месяц украинской кампании по энергетической изоляции Крыма полуостров оказался на грани гуманитарной катастрофы. Удары ВСУ сначала приводили к перебоям в снабжении аннексированного региона топливом, а со временем стали все чаще оставлять местных жителей без света, воды и связи. Проблемы в электробеспечении наглядно видны из космоса: мы изучили спутниковые снимки Крыма ночью — и смогли оценить масштаб бедствия. Общая освещенность полуострова уже к концу июня упала в пять раз по сравнению с нормой. А после удара по Балаклавской ТЭС, обеспечивавшей от четверти до трети местной генерации, Крыму грозит полномасштабный энергетический кризис. Что еще показало наше исследование?

In final visit to Kyiv while in office, the outgoing British prime minister also says the UK’s resolve to support Ukraine ‘will not waver’. What we know on day 1,605Keir Starmer has said he believes Ukraine will win the war against Russia as he ended his final visit to the country while in office. Starmer met Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy in Kyiv on Thursday and told Sky News in an interview: “I believe Ukraine will win this war.” He added: “What they’ve shown is that it’s not just the size of your army, it’s how you fight a modern conflict. And so they are probably the most effective fighting machine in Europe.”Starmer’s visit came on his final full day as Labour leader, with the British leader saying the handover would not change the relationship between the two nations. “The fact that there will be a new prime minister in the United Kingdom, in the days to come, doesn’t change that dynamic at all,” he said. “The resolve of the United Kingdom remains the same, it will not waver.”Starmer also announced 300 million-euro funding to help deliver a squadron of 16 advanced Swedish Gripen jets to Ukraine by 2029. The Gripen aircraft can be used for air-to-air combat, ground strikes and reconnaissance missions.Zelenskyy defended on Thursday his decision to dismiss the country’s popular defence minister, Mykhailo Fedorov, and confirmed reports that relations had broken down between the ministry and the country’s top army leadership.

More than 1,000 protesters gathered outside the presidential office in Kyiv on Thursday, carrying placards in support of Fedorov. Ukraine’s youthful defence minister was seen as an innovator of the country’s successful drone technology but was someone who clashed with the traditional military establishment.The personnel overhaul, which included replacing the prime minister, could become a test of Zelenskyy’s political authority as Ukraine’s fight against Russia’s full-scale invasion approaches four and a half years.

The head of Russian nuclear giant Rosatom, Alexei Likhachev said on Wednesday that Aleksandr Yakovlev died when “a drone belonging to the Ukrainian armed forces” hit a service vehicle near the flashpoint power station.
