UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres travelled to Moscow on Tuesday, April 26, where he met with Russian President Vladimir Putin to discuss the war in Ukraine.

Following a separate meeting with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, Guterres called for evacuations from Mariupol, where Ukrainian forces and civilians are surrounded at the massive Azovstal steel plant.

Meanwhile, Russia halted gas supplies to Bulgaria and Poland on Wednesday for rejecting its demand for payment in roubles, taking direct aim at European economies in a move that also exposed confusion in the EU on how to respond to Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine.

The decision, denounced by European leaders as “blackmail,” comes as Russia’s own economy wilts under sweeping international sanctions and as Western countries ramp up arms shipments to help Ukraine fend off a new Russian assault in the east.
