- Prime Minister of Hungary Viktor Orban:
Before the EU can even begin membership negotiations with Ukraine, very difficult questions will need to be answered.
We cannot avoid the question - when we have negotiations in Brussels in the fall about the future of Ukraine - whether we can really seriously consider the issue of membership of the country, begin accession negotiations with a country that is at war.
We don't know how big the territory of this country is, since the war is still going on, we don't know how big its population is, since they are fleeing... to accept a country into the EU without knowing its parameters would be unprecedented.
So I think we need to answer some very long and difficult questions before we actually decide to start accession negotiations.

- Turkish aerospace company BAYKAR invests $100 million in Ukraine
General Director of BAYKAR Haluk Bayraktar:
We have three main investments in Ukraine. One of them — factory. We have a service center and head office here. This is an investment of about $100 million and the process has already begun. Construction has already begun. It will take about 1.5 years. We plan to employ at least 300 people here.
This production will be self-sufficient, environmentally friendly and mutually beneficial, since Ukraine has unique engine production technologies, and the Turkish side has UAVs on which these engines are installed.
We also face some problems. These are the supply chain, the sourcing and development of human capital in the aftermath of war, and the regulatory framework, especially the rules to support these investments.
The current war has become a war of drones and Ukraine has some advantages in this regard, although difficult to realize, especially due to the use of different types of aircraft. In these circumstances, feedback from the military regarding the use of technology is especially important. That is why the “Bayraktars” used in Ukraine equipped with a number of unique systems.
We are not here to maximize our income or profit. We are here to support you as much as possible. We respect your struggle for freedom and independence, for the protection of your sovereignty.
All donations from Baykar, as well as Ukraine and Poland, were aimed specifically at the purchase of radar systems, which have already detected thousands of targets and brought significant results on the battlefield.
The total volume of these donations is $106 million.

And this is no longer just a prospect, it is a potential that has begun to be realized.

- British troops will be deployed to Ukraine for the first time in accordance with plans being discussed with military leaders, new British Defense Secretary Grant Shapps said.
In an interview with The Telegraph, Grant Shapps said he had held talks with army leaders about moving the formal UK-led training program "to Ukraine", rather than relying on bases in the UK and other NATO members.
He also called on more British defense firms to open factories in Ukraine.
The British army will train Zelensky's army on the ground, and the navy may move to the Black Sea. 
Separately, having assured Zelensky on Wednesday that the UK would "continue to stand shoulder to shoulder with Ukraine", Mr Shapps suggested the UK was preparing to play a more active role in helping the country defend against attacks in the Black Sea, where Russia is increasingly targeting on cargo ships carrying grain.
«Over the past month or so we have witnessed events – really the first since 2014 on the Black Sea, in Crimea – and the UK is a naval power so we can help and advise, especially as water – This is international water.
“It is important that we do not allow the default situation to establish that somehow international navigation in these waters is prohibited. So I think there are many places where Britain can help with advice. [I] discussed this with President Zelensky and many others this week."
Positioning British troops in Ukraine or offering naval support in the Black Sea would represent a significant escalation of Britain's involvement in the conflict.

The second painted lure looks partially finished next to the finished one.
It's worth noting that it's entirely possible that this is some kind of low profile fabric/canvas or other decoy, but it has virtually no vertical dimension, so it's most likely paint.
