Refugees[change | change source]

The President of Moldova, Maia Sandu, said over 4,000 Ukrainian citizens had crossed into Moldova since the invasion started.[354] Poland [did get ready for] a large number of refugees to enter the country.[355] To make border crossings easier, Poland lifted COVID-19 entry rules.[356] Ukrainian refugees started crossing into Romania as well.

Overall[change | change source]

Overall Russia has done best in the East. It has kept most of the ground it took over in 2022. Its defensive arrangement in the East have stood up to Ukrainian efforts.

Some of the ships of the Russian Navy, have been attacked (and damaged) in the Black Sea.

The overall picture is that Russian aims have only partly been met.

Ukraine has taken more than half of the land taken from them by the Russians.

Details about the warfare[change | change source]

Dead soldiers have been buried in graves; In some incidents, a body in a grave has been connected to a booby trap: when a grave is opened and a body is touched, then a grenade or other explosive weapon (see explosive), blows up.[361]

Ideas about peace[change | change source]

In May 2023, Ukrainian authorities said that all Russian forces must leave Ukraine, before there can be any negotiations about peace.[362]

In regard to using NATO membership (for Ukraine) as a bargaining card (or something to trade for something else): at least one NATO member-country has shared the idea with authorities outside its own government.[363] In August 2023, the Director of the Private Office of the NATO Secretary General said that "I think that one solution could be that Ukraine gives up [land or] territory, and gets a NATO membership" [as part of that deal or] in return".[364][365]

Officials from many countries, have attended meetings about peace; In August 2023, there was a (meeting or) conference in Saudi Arabia, without Russian officials. Earlier (June), there was a meeting in Denmark, without Russian officials.

Idea about elections (during war)[change | change source]

In August 2023, Ukraine's president said that Ukraine has money for fighting against invaders and buying weapons; Ukraine authorities do not expect to take some of that money to set up (wartime) elections.[366]

Martial law (in Ukraine) is "due to expire on November 15"; Also, "Elections can not ... be held in Ukraine under martial law, which must be [made longer or] extended every 90 days".[366]

Parliamentary elections will not happen in October (2023), because of the war; a new date (and after November 15), has not been chosen.[367]

About a presidential election for March 2024: under normal circumstances, there would be an election.[367]

If other countries pay for elections (in Ukraine, during this war), and if Ukrainian the lawmakers understand that we need elections during the war, then laws can be changed to make those elections possible, according to Ukraine's president. He also said that the cost of elections during times of peace, is around 5 billion Hryvnja (Ukrainian money).[367]
