Ukraine’s next steps could determine the near-term course of the war.

By expelling Russian troops from a large slice of strategic territory in the northeastern Kharkiv region, Ukrainian forces are now positioned to make a move on the Donbas, nearly 90 percent of which is controlled by Russia. If Ukraine were to retake even a part of the region, it would be an embarrassing blow to the Kremlin. Pushing beyond the Donbas could come with potentially significant pitfalls, straining supplies and leaving Ukrainian units vulnerable, though military experts said a Russian counterattack might not happen. Russian officials face hard questions over the retreat, especially with a growing [backlash to their “special military operation” from pro-war voices](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRlApTwP4QAAWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lm55dGltZXMuY29tLzIwMjIvMDkvMTEvd29ybGQvZXVyb3BlL3VrcmFpbmUtcnVzc2lhcy1yZXRyZWF0LXB1dGluLmh0bWw_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9NTEmZW1jPWVkaXRfbWJlXzIwMjIwOTEzJmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTcxNzg1Jm5sPW1vcm5pbmctYnJpZWZpbmclM0EtZXVyb3BlLWVkaXRpb24mcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTEwNjEzNSZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKYxfwDyBjhpSNeFIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAA) at home.

Federal agents with court-authorized search warrants took phones last week from at least two people: Boris Epshteyn, an in-house counsel who helps coordinate Trump’s legal efforts, and Mike Roman, a campaign strategist who was the director of Election Day operations for the Trump campaign in 2020, people familiar with the investigation said.

Prime Minister Liz Truss on Thursday, the day Queen Elizabeth II died.Dan Kitwood/Getty Images A dizzying first week for Liz Truss A week ago today, Liz Truss was moving into 10 Downing Street and puzzling over how to help people pay their soaring gas bills.

Politics, for now, is on pause. Parliament has been suspended until after the queen’s state funeral on Sept. 19, and lawmakers are scheduled to go into recess again on Sept. 22 for their parties’ conferences. But when the national mourning is over, Truss will face enormous challenges: double-digit inflation, a looming recession, labor unrest and deteriorating public finances. Truss’s sweeping plan to freeze energy rates, at a probable cost of more than $100 billion in its first year, has barely garnered attention amid the round-the-clock coverage of the queen, prompting some experts to call for political debate on the package. “I do worry a bit that the government will get used to the lack of scrutiny of their proposals,” said Jonathan Portes, a professor at King’s College London. Aid: The spending package has spurred investors’ fears, which are wearing on the bond market and the pound, which has recently plumbed its lowest levels against the dollar since 1985.
