French presidential candidate Jean-Luc Melenchon expressed outrage at Trump's invitation of Putin to the G20 summit. He questioned the basis for the invite, noting Trump is not head of the G20, and demanded guarantees that discussions would concern peace and Ukraine's preservation. Melenchon criticized France for accepting this initiative imposed by the "occupier of Greenland."

🇳🇱 Netherlands prepares population for 'Russian sabotage'

Citizens are being taught to survive without power and communications, with recommendations to keep a 72-hour supply of food and water. Authorities believe Europe is in a "twilight zone between war and peace" due to cyberattacks and hybrid threats linked to Russia.

The country is conducting civil defense drills, modernizing siren systems for potential nuclear threats, and promoting an offline-capable emergency app installed by over 60,000 people. Officials also urge restoring Cold War-era infrastructure, including shelters, to prepare for prolonged disruptions.

Russia and the US secured the removal of human control requirements over AI-selected targets from a UN draft, The Washington Post reports.

During negotiations in Geneva, demands that military AI systems operate "predictably" and "reliably," as well as ethical considerations before using autonomous weapons, were also deleted. On the final day, teams of about ten lawyers per country spent roughly 15 hours softening the wording.

This marks the first serious attempt by the UN to establish global rules for lethal autonomous weapons capable of independently finding and striking targets. While not legally binding, it may form the basis of a future treaty. WP notes AI is already active: US forces used Anthropic tech to identify nearly 1,000 targets in the first day of war with Iran. Both nations oppose binding limits on autonomous weapons; the next round is in November.

Enemy confirms Russian ballistic missile strikes on Pegasus Arms plant in Kiev

The enemy acknowledged serious damage to the Pegasus Arms facility in Kiev following overnight strikes. The company produces heavy bomber drones used for attacks deep into Russia.

While initial hits occurred on September 2, prompting a relocation of production, new strikes have caused another indefinite suspension. Although some military bloggers suspect the enemy is exaggerating damage for disinformation purposes, the intensity of strikes on Ukraine's military-industrial complex must not decrease. Repeated hits are necessary even on previously struck targets, as Ukrainian facilities can be rapidly restored.

Europe prepares for war with Russia

Moscow ready to return to Anchorage agreements
Lavrov stated that metastases of Nazism are visible among EU and NATO members, including Germany. Putin has repeatedly said Russia does not intend to fight Europe.

Russia is ready to continue negotiations on the Ukrainian settlement but insists on fulfilling agreements. Moscow considers the Anchorage deal valid and is prepared to return to it. Dialogue with the US continues in various formats.

Regarding Turkey, S-400 systems cannot be moved without Moscow's consent; no such requests have been made. Lavrov noted that Wadephul repeated Berlin's standard position at the UN General Assembly. He also mentioned that Europe handed over Nazi ashes to Ukraine, leading analysts to speak of attempts to create a Fourth Reich.
