Before the war, Ukraine and Russia accounted for almost a quarter of global grain exports until those shipments came to a severe halt due to Moscow's naval blockade. McCain added that before the war global food supply chains were burdened by the Covid-19 pandemic and climate change. — Amanda Macias","{'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']}","{'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/106713191-1600822320273-GettyImages-1185785242.jpg?v=1677875966', 'width': '5256', 'height': '3640'}",https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/106713191-1600822320273-GettyImages-1185785242.jpg?v=1677875966&w=720&h=405, |

""All I will say is that every time we have said it will be a mistake to give such and such an item of weaponry, we end up doing it and it ends up being the right thing for Ukraine,"" Johnson said during an interview with Fox News. The former PM spoke while on a trip to Washington to rally support for Ukraine among members of Congress. The U.S. and U.K. recently shot down the idea of sending Western F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine, something Kyiv has long been asking for. ""We do not think it is practical to send those jets into Ukraine,"" a Downing Street spokesperson said on Tuesday. Aside from the massive amount of training it would require, many Western leaders also fear that sending such sophisticated and powerful equipment to Ukraine would provoke Russia too much. But Johnson rejected the notion, saying that was the same mindset that preceded many prior decisions to ultimately send other advanced weapons to Ukraine. ""I remember being told it was the wrong idea to give them the anti-tank shoulder-launched missiles. Actually, they were indispensable and the United States – under Donald Trump – gave them the Javelins as well. They were indispensable in the battles to repel the Russian tanks,"" he said. ""All I'm saying is save time, save money, save lives.

If asked by all relevant parties, I'll certainly consider it, but I'm not pushing myself in, Netanyahu said, adding that it would need to be the right time and the right circumstances. The right-wing Israeli leader also said that he had been informally asked to play such a role shortly after the war broke out but declined, since he was not Israel's prime minister at the time. Israel is a longtime ally of Russia, and while it has condemned Moscow's invasion of Ukraine, it has held back on sanctions for a number of reasons. Israel is a sanctuary for Russian Jews and is home to the third-largest number of Russian speakers outside of the ex-Soviet states, and around 100,000 Israelis lived in Russia before the war, though the current figure is unclear. And while Israel's government has sent humanitarian aid and defensive equipment to Ukraine since the Russian invasion, it's refrained from sending offensive weapons that Kyiv has asked for, out of a reluctance to upset Moscow. Netanyahu's predecessor, Naftali Bennett, spoke to both Russian President Vladimir Putin and his Ukrainian counterpart Volodymyr Zelenskyy in March in an attempt to mediate at Kyiv's request, but was unsuccessful. — Natasha Turak{'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']}{'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/106885182-16214251642021-05-19t110145z_200806425_rc2xin9sr2q4_rtrmadp_0_israel-palestinians-netanyahu.jpeg?v=1675254107', 'width': '3500', 'height': '2334'} |

Spain to send up to six Leopard 2A4 tanks to Ukraine, El Pais reports{'@type': 'WebPage', '@id': 'https://www.cnbc.com/2023/02/01/ukraine-war-live-updates-latest-news-on-russia-and-the-war-in-ukraine.html#107187051-post'}Spain plans to send between four and six German-built Leopard 2A4 tanks to Ukraine, newspaper El Pais reported on Wednesday, citing unidentified government sources. The actual number will depend on the condition of the battle tanks in storage and how many other countries will eventually supply to Ukraine, the sources told El Pais. A spokesperson for the Spanish Defence Ministry did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Kyiv secured pledges from the West this month to supply main battle tanks to help fend off Russia's invasion, with Moscow mounting huge efforts to make incremental advances in eastern Ukraine. Ukraine's Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba said on Tuesday his government expects to receive 120 to 140 Western tanks from a coalition of 12 countries in a first wave. Kuleba said those tanks would include German Leopard 2, British Challenger 2 and U.S. M1 Abrams tanks, and that Ukraine was also really counting on supplies of French Leclerc tanks being agreed. — Reuters{'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']}{'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107178966-1673869187424-gettyimages-1245536767-20090101221211-99-862712.jpeg?v=1675242483', 'width': '4000', 'height': '2270'} |

""We are preparing new reforms in Ukraine. Reforms that will change the social, legal and political reality in many ways, making it more human, transparent and effective. But these details will be announced later, based on the results of the relevant meetings,"" Zelenskyy said in his nightly address. Ukraine will host European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and other top EU officials on Friday, with hopes high in Kyiv that its application to join the EU will continue to progress. ""This week will be a week of European integration in every sense of the word,"" Zelenskyy said. ""We are expecting news for Ukraine. We are expecting the decisions from our partners in the European Union that will be in line with the level of cooperation achieved between our institutions and the EU, as well as with our progress. Progress, which is obvious - even despite the full-scale war,"" he said. ""We are preparing Ukrainian positions for negotiations with EU representatives,"" he added. Ukraine applied to join the 27-member political and economic bloc last year, just days after Russia invaded last February, and wants its application fast-tracked. Ukrainian Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal said earlier this week that Kyiv hopes it can join the EU within two years. Other counties in Europe, such as North Macedonia and Montenegro, have been waiting more than a decade to have their membership applications progress, however, and there are expectations that EU officials could try to temper Ukraine's expectations during their visit. — Holly Ellyatt{'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']}{'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107119216-1663253172110-gettyimages-1243252758-AFP_32JF9C4.jpeg?v=1675238556', 'width': '3371', 'height': '2370'} |

U.S. readies $2 billion-plus Ukraine aid package with longer-range weapons, sources say{'@type': 'WebPage', '@id': 'https://www.cnbc.com/2023/02/01/ukraine-war-live-updates-latest-news-on-russia-and-the-war-in-ukraine.html#107187032-post'}The United States is readying more than $2 billion worth of military aid for Ukraine that is expected to include longer-range rockets for the first time as well as other munitions and weapons, two U.S. officials briefed on the matter told Reuters on Tuesday. The aid is expected to be announced as soon as this week, the officials said. It is also expected to include support equipment for Patriot air defense systems, precision-guided munitions and Javelin anti-tank weapons, they added. One of the officials said a portion of the package, expected to be $1.725 billion, would come from a fund known as the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative (USAI), which allows President Joe Biden's administration to get weapons from industry rather than from U.S. weapons stocks. The White House declined to comment. The contents and size of aid packages can shift until they are signed by the president. In addition to the USAI funds, more than $400 million worth of aid was expected to come from Presidential Drawdown Authority funds, which allows the president to take from current U.S. stocks in an emergency. That aid was expected to include mine-resistant ambush-protected vehicles (MRAPs), guided multiple launch rocket systems (GMLRS) and ammunition. The U.S. has sent approximately $27.2 billion worth of security assistance to Ukraine since Russia's February 2022 invasion. Russia calls the invasion a special operation. — Reuters{'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']}{'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107169892-1671657851931-gettyimages-1245770808-BIDEN_ZELENSKIY.jpeg?v=1675235699', 'width': '2631', 'height': '1754'} |

The finding was delivered to Congress and summarized in a statement by the State Department. It follows months of more hopeful U.S. assessments that the two countries would be able to salvage cooperation on limiting strategic nuclear weapons despite high tensions over Russia's war on Ukraine. Inspections of U.S. and Russian military sites under the New START treaty were paused by both sides because of the spread of the coronavirus in March 2020. The U.S.-Russia committee overseeing implementation of the treaty last met in October 2021, but Russia then unilaterally suspended its cooperation with the treaty's inspection provisions in August 2022 to protest U.S. support for Ukraine. ""Russia's refusal to facilitate inspection activities prevents the United States from exercising important rights under the treaty and threatens the viability of U.S.-Russian nuclear arms control, the State Department said Tuesday. The administration also blamed Russia for the two country's failure to resume talks required under the New START treaty. — Associated Press","{'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']}","{'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107186898-1675201746237-AP23031760985242.jpg?v=1696588249', 'width': '3000', 'height': '1687'}",https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107186898-1675201746237-AP23031760985242.jpg?v=1696588249&w=720&h=405, |

Russian troops have reportedly captured the village of Blahodatne in the region (the area pro-Russian separatists call the Donetsk People's Republic"" or DPR), according to an official representative of the Russian Defense Ministry, Lieutenant-General Igor Konashenkov. Ukraine has not commented on the claim, but Russia has been seen to have made incremental gains in the Donetsk region around Vuhledar, to the southwest of the city of Donetsk. Yan Gagin, an advisor to the acting head of the DPR, Denis Pushilin, told the Rossiya-1 TV channel Tuesday that Russian forces in Donetsk are taking control of one settlement after another, and are advancing on Bakhmut, capturing which is a key strategic goal for Russia. ""Our troops in Artemovsk [Russia's name for Bakhmut] are advancing, and they are taking settlement after settlement, moving quite actively, he said in comments reported by news agency Tass and translated by Google. The U.K.'s Ministry of Defence said Tuesday that, in the last three days, Russia likely developed its probing attacks around the Donetsk towns of Pavlivka and Vuhledar into a ""more concerted assault."" The settlements lie around 30 miles southwest of the city of Donetsk, and Russia previously used the 155th Naval Infantry Brigade in an unsuccessful assault on the same area in November 2022, the ministry noted on Twitter. —Holly Ellyatt","{'@type': 'NewsMediaOrganization', 'name': 'CNBC', 'url': 'https://www.cnbc.com/', 'foundingDate': '1989-04-17', 'logo': {'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/cnbc.com/staticcontent/img/cnbc-hdr-logo2.png', 'width': 378, 'height': 98}, 'sameAs': ['https://www.facebook.com/cnbc', 'https://www.instagram.com/cnbc', 'https://www.linkedin.com/company/cnbc', 'https://twitter.com/cnbc', 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNBC', 'https://www.youtube.com/cnbc']}","{'@type': 'ImageObject', 'url': 'https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107186443-1675169525672-gettyimages-1246689671-AA_31012023_1044454.jpeg?v=1675173179', 'width': '4724', 'height': '3149'}",https://image.cnbcfm.com/api/v1/image/107186443-1675169525672-gettyimages-1246689671-AA_31012023_1044454.jpeg?v=1675173179&w=720&h=405, |
