Putin to reject Trump’s peace offer. New Russian conditions demand concessions from the U.S., not just Ukraine:

“Kellogg comes to Moscow with his plan, we take it and tell him to screw himself, because we don’t like any of it.”
1/
The Russian conditions for negotiations

1. Reversal of U.S. Support for Ukraine:

Cease the provision of advanced long-range weapons to Ukraine [So, it is finally hurting! Great!]

Remove President Volodymyr Zelenskyy from power [How? Kill him?]

2/
2. Territorial Concessions

Ukraine must formally cede four occupied regions to Russia [This is impossible as it would violate the Ukrainian Constitution]

Commit to never joining NATO [The same here] 3/
3.High-Level Global Negotiations:

Trump and Putin must meet to discuss a “general agreement” on the global order, security and geopolitics, the Middle East and Russia-China relations

[This is delusional non-sense as the U.S. doesn’t have formal power over other countries] 4/
Acknowledge Ukraine as part of Russia’s core sphere of influence

[Basically, surrender Ukraine to Russia and make it a province. Won’t happen!] 5/
4. Sanctions Relief:

Full rollback of Western sanctions imposed on Russia

6/
5. Recognition of Russia’s Position in Global Affairs:

A long-term peace agreement must validate Russia’s global strategic interests

[I think they mean Russian right to dictate other countries policies] 7/
6. Broader Conditions for Peace:

Address other international flashpoints and establish a new global framework for peace and security

[New United Nations? With Russian at the chair seat?] 8/
There are explicit threats if demands are not met:

Escalation, including the potential use of tactical nuclear weapons, leading to catastrophic consequences and a radiation zone in Ukraine

[Russia is nuts and Trump will have his plate full with these idiots] 9/
Continued strengthening of Russia’s economy and alliances (China, Iran, North Korea) through confrontation

[At least, they are honest about who they are - barbarians who want to get their way by force, and so must be stopped by force]

Fedorov: During the latest mass attack on Kyiv, Ukraine intercepted about 95% of Shaheds — around 600 were launched.

Against cruise missiles, the interception rate can also reach 80–90% when Ukraine has enough F-16s and enough missiles to cover the whole country.

1/
Fedorov: Ukraine is investing heavily in cheap missiles to prepare for winter and bad weather, when interceptor drones face limits.

During the main mass attack, about 75% of Shaheds were intercepted by interceptor drones.

2/
Fedorov: Ukraine continues to destroy 30,000–35,000 Russians a month — killed or seriously wounded.

Partners call this a unique statistic: in this war, drones make evacuation harder, so the share of killed is unusually high.

Zelenskyy: We are thankful to the American team for transfer of anti ballistic missiles, but for today it is too slow.

We don’t know what Putin will do. We are asking President Trump and his team: we don’t need too many words. You see what does it mean when the packages come? 1/
Zelenskyy: Europe, the United States and many other countries live from election to election. That is understandable. But please, the priority must be saving lives. 2/
Zelenskyy: Kushner and Witkoff said they would come to Ukraine. They have to come to see, understand and explain to the President Trump what Russia has to do quickly: sit, negotiate and stop this war. I hope they will come. 3x

Zelenskyy: Russia designed this strike to cause maximum damage: ballistic missiles, waves of Shaheds and other drones, dozens of cruise missiles.

Ukraine shot down 48 missiles and 476 drones overnight, but not all. We need more Patriots and anti-ballistic systems.

1/
Zelenskyy: Air defense must be a key result of the NATO summit. Europe must have enough capacity to defend itself from every threat, including Russian ballistic missiles.

We have long discussed licenses for Patriot production with the U.S. administration.

2/
Zelenskyy: To truly protect lives, Europe needs its own air defense production — in Ukraine or together with partners.

This would also support the United States in operations when needed.

Kellogg: Putin just wants power. The Soviets left Afghanistan after losing 18,000 soldiers. Putin has lost 1.2 to 1.4 million.

Americans would never accept that. But he keeps going because he thinks he can occupy all of Ukraine. He is not winning.

1/
Kellogg: Europe’s security will no longer be built only around Germany, France, and the UK.

It will shift east — through Finland, Sweden, Poland, Ukraine, and Romania. Ukraine will be the Sparta of Europe, with an army of 800,000. Nobody else has that.

2/
Kellogg: Putin is on the losing end. If he does not watch out, he may end up like Nicholas II, the last tsar.

Someone will get to him, and I think he is worried about that.

"Who could have imagined Colombians fighting North Koreans in Kursk region? Our Colombians beat them well enough."

Captain Hamlet Avagyan, an Armenian, commands a Ukrainian assault regiment built mostly of foreign fighters, UkrPravda. 1/ Image
Captain Hamlet Avagyan leads the R.U.G. assault regiment under Khartiia, a Ukrainian National Guard unit.

Foreign fighters make up most of the unit. In August 2024, R.U.G. joined Ukraine's surprise push into Russia's Kursk region. 2/
Born in Yerevan, Armenia. In 2008, Russia invaded Georgia. Avagyan went to fight — he had family there.

Later he ran special operations in Baghdad and Syria. 3/

Ukrainian soldiers rinsed their mouths with water from a fire extinguisher and ate rations they took off the Russians they killed to survive in the encirclement.

Russians poisoned them with gas, thinking these were elite forces. Ukrainians held their position for 109 days.

1/
Anton, one of the Ukrainian soldiers: My neck, arms and back started burning. I jumped out with my rifle and saw a drone. I started shooting, tears streaming.

The grenade was self-made. Chlorine-based powder inside. It smells of acid, eats through everything.

2/
Anton: We filtered mud, we used water from fire extinguishers to rinse our mouths, but it tasted of ammonia. We couldn’t drink it because it’s acid.

We drank saline, and by radio, guys at other positions said they were drinking chlorhexidine.
