Quick Glance: Italy's PM Unfazed by Putin's Threats
- Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni has emphasized that the Kremlin's threatening rhetoric doesn't scare her.
- According to the Italian news agency ANSA, Meloni's comments were in response to Russian President Vladimir Putin's remarks following the terrorist attack at the Crocus City Hall concert venue in Moscow's suburbs, which the Kremlin propaganda is trying to blame on Ukraine despite ISIS claiming responsibility.
- Meloni stated, "I think the situation hasn't changed compared to what has happened before." She highlighted the need to maintain the deterrence that Europe and the West have established to prevent escalation.
- Background: Putin alleged that a "back door" was prepared for the suspects of the attack to cross the border into Ukraine. The US government is certain that ISIS was involved in the terrorist attack at a concert in Moscow's suburbs on the evening of March 22. Previously, French President Emmanuel Macron condemned nuclear threats against his country made by Pyotr Tolstoy, Deputy Speaker of Russia's State Duma.

Quick Glance: '20 Days in Mariupol' Wins Oscar for Best Documentary
- Mstyslav Chernov's '20 Days in Mariupol,' a harrowing first-person account of the early days of Russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2022, won the best documentary Oscar on Sunday night.
- Chernov, photographer Evgeniy Maloletka, and producer Vasilisa Stepanenko arrived an hour before Russia began bombing the port city. Two weeks later, they were the last journalists working for an international outlet in the city, sending crucial dispatches to the outside world showing civilian casualties of all ages, the digging of mass graves, the bombing of a maternity hospital, and the sheer extent of the devastation.
- Chernov called on Russia to cease aggression in Ukraine and urged the release of hostages and civilians in their jails.
- The work of Chernov, Maloletka, Stepanenko, and Lori Hinnant won the 2023 Pulitzer Prize for public service and was prominently featured in a Pulitzer for breaking news photography that same year.
