Ukraine, European countries, and the U.S. reviewed it, adjusted certain points, and created a document that's now awaiting Trump’s approval.

1/

Zelensky: Russia dislikes Ukraine’s presence in Africa and opposes normal humanitarian and economic relations between Ukraine and African nations.

Russia seeks exclusive influence not only in Africa but globally.

We seek South Africa's assistance in returning them home.

Ukrainian Lt. Ovsianikov (49) lost his eye, nose, arm, and most fingers on his left hand when a Russian mortar hit near Borova, Kharkiv in 2023.

Shrapnel tore his face apart. 41 surgeries rebuilt him with titanium and rib grafts. “I am still a soldier”, he says – The Times. 1/

He lay blind and broken, ready to die. “I thought death would be a relief. Then I thought of my mum.”

Through the ringing he heard his men shout: “The commander is 300!” He realised he was alive. 2/

Surgeons rebuilt his skull with titanium, reshaped his nose with a rib, and used €6,000 of implants. He still faces more ops, including a prosthetic eye. 3/

Q: Putin said he will meet you if you come to Moscow.

Zelenskyy: He can come to Kyiv. I can’t go to Moscow when my country is under daily missile attacks. Putin just plays games to delay meetings. We can’t trust him — he even plays games with the US.

1/

Q: Do you think the possibility for a bilateral meeting is dead?

Zelenskyy: No. I told President Trump I’m ready for any meeting — bilateral or trilateral — but not in Russia. First ceasefire, then talks on security guarantees. I thank the US for joining those guarantees.

2/

Zelenskyy: We need pressure from the US. President Trump. Some Europeans keep buying Russian oil and gas. That must stop. Energy is Putin’s weapon. The White House has the power to take it away. 3/

Ukrainian photographer Sergey Melnitchenko shows how war changes lives in his project Along the Dnipro.

One of his portraits is Serhii, an Azovstal defender. Russians beat, starved and moved him between prisons. He spent 2 years in captivity and lost 30 kg - Kyiv Independent. 1/

Another portrait is Daria. Russian troops seized her in her village, accused her family of spying and sexually assaulted her.

Now she speaks out in Kyiv, urging other survivors of wartime sexual violence to come forward and seek justice. 2/

On July 8, 2024, Russian missiles destroyed part of Kyiv’s Okhmatdyt children’s hospital.

Budanov, Ukraine Spy Chief: Ukraine for 2nd time in history disabled a Russian Black Sea Fleet vessel with an FPV drone.

Also, Budanov: Russia preparing for war with Europe by 2030, allocated $1.2T for rearmament, has cases of cannibalism in their army. 1/

Budanov: Ukraine managed to lock the Russian Black Sea Fleet at its permanent base.

Currently, this is Novorossiysk. The combat fleet does not sail farther than the Novorossiysk roadstead — only to launch missiles and quickly return. 2/

Budanov: The joint military exercises of Russian and Belarusian armed forces “West-2025” on the territory of Belarus are a planned event and currently do not pose a specific threat to Ukraine. 3/

Le Monde: Russian diplomacy mimics Soviet tactics: make extreme demands, allow symbolic talks, threaten, and offer minimal concessions.

Past agreements, like Budapest and Minsk, failed due to lack of enforcement, and Russia now frames any negotiation on its terms. 1/

Putin uses a mix of military action and diplomatic gestures to keep Europe anxious.

After meeting with Trump in Alaska in August 2025, Russian attacks in Ukraine resumed, including strikes on western cities and Kyiv, while Moscow claimed interest in negotiations. 2/

In September, Putin attended a Beijing military parade with Xi Jinping and other leaders, warning that Western forces in Ukraine would be legitimate targets, showing Russia is not isolated. 3/

Mstyslav Chernov, Ukrainian Oscar-winning director, on film 2,000 Meters to Andriivka:

I want the White House to watch it. I don’t want people to cry. I want anger — the urge to act.

We throw the viewer into the trench and make them walk the 2,000 meters with the soldiers. 1/

Chernov: The film’s language is hyperrealism — it won’t let the viewer go.

When they leave the theater, they’ll say: ‘Oh God, this was reality. Not Apocalypse Now, not 1917, but life. 2/

Chernov: Many European leaders have seen the movie, but I want defense officials in Europe, the U.S. and NATO to watch it.

Too many still treat Russia’s war as geopolitics, not as Ukrainian people on the frontlines defending Europe. 3/
