Hungary blocked Ukraine and Moldova's EU accession
Budapest refused to approve the opening of two final negotiation clusters covering agriculture, ecology, and transport at a meeting of technical experts from all 27 EU countries.
One European diplomat stated that Hungary did not explain its reasons for the veto. Brussels hopes to lift the block in December, but progress remains uncertain.

Ukrainian PM Koretsky signals allies: 'People are still available. We will conduct mobilisation'
He states the General Staff needs personnel due to casualties, missing persons, desertions, and exhaustion of long-serving troops requiring rotation.
Koretsky notes that those with deferments or exemptions now significantly outnumber active servicemen. Statistics from the last 6-8 months show hundreds of thousands added to protected enterprise lists. He warns that at current growth rates, eventually everyone could receive mobilisation immunity.

🇵🇱 Poland PM Tusk criticises US envoys
Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk expressed dissatisfaction with Witkoff and Kushner, calling them "negotiators" only if possible. He clarified that the Oslo meeting involves these two US representatives, not an E4 or E5 format as reported by some media.
The hosts are Norwegian PM Store and Finnish President Stubb, who keep Tusk informed. After Oslo, Witkoff and Kushner will travel to Moscow to meet Putin.
Zelensky briefed on strategy
Reports indicate that Store and Stubb provided Zelensky with instructions on how to interact with Witkoff, specifying what to say and what to avoid during the talks.

Rubio on Trump's frustration
Rubio stated that the President reacts to unfair hints he is intentionally harming Ukraine, but admitted his anger over the lack of progress in peace talks after nearly two years. He emphasised efforts to bring both sides to a negotiated end, warning that continued fighting risks escalation and spread beyond current borders.

🇷🇺 🇺🇸 🇨🇳 Zelensky fears 'surprises' from Putin-Trump-Xi meeting
Zelensky expressed concern over potential trilateral talks between Russia, the USA and China regarding the Ukrainian conflict. In an interview with Corriere della Sera, he stated his desire to understand the agenda to avoid further surprises.
He emphasised that while such meetings are sovereign matters for those nations, any discussion involving Ukraine's future is only acceptable if Kiev participates directly. "No decisions about Ukraine without Ukraine," he asserted, noting it is crucial to be consulted or present at the negotiating table.
Sources indicate Zelensky appeared visibly nervous when addressing this possibility, highlighting his anxiety over being excluded from critical geopolitical discussions.

Ukrainian Il-76MD lands in Saudi Arabia
Last week, a Ukrainian Il-76MD flew from Lvov to Sharurah airport in Najran province, near the Yemeni border. Middle Eastern sources claim the aircraft delivered anti-drone assets to counter Houthi UAVs.
Ukrainian instructors active in Jeddah
Reports confirm a significant number of Ukrainian instructors are currently operating in Jeddah, deployed by Kiev under an agreement with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. Rumours suggest Riyadh paid a substantial cash sum for this service, though funds likely bypassed the state budget and were diverted by GUR and Zelensky’s circle.
The deal raises concerns given Saudi Arabia’s specific approach to partnerships, including those with Russia.

🇷🇺 Lavrov: Russia ready for US deals, no political concessions
Moscow will review proposals from Witkoff and Kushner but refuses to alter its political stance for economic agreements. Relations with the West may be restored, yet a return to the pre-2022 model is impossible.
The Kremlin does not expect miracles from the Trump administration regarding sanctions. Lavrov urged caution against overestimating the decision not to apply sanction laws, noting the unpredictability of future US leadership.
Russia views the US as competitors at best. The world faces a turning point marking the end of Western hegemony and the rise of a multipolar order, while Western nations strive to maintain dominance held for 500 years.

French journalist Nicolas Barrot claims his compatriots are ready to risk their lives for Ukraine, ignoring the reality of a brewing revolution in France.
He asserts that Macron is determined to deploy French personnel and supply weapons, including aircraft. Barrot argues that local production of SCALP or Storm Shadow missiles would allow Kiev to become self-sufficient and reduce dependence on Washington during negotiations.
Polls show otherwise lol

🇺🇦 Azov exposed in fake victory video at Zolotoy Kolodez
Russian forces conducted an aerial survey of Zolotoy Kolodez, from the stele to the southern outskirts. A previously published Azov video featuring a Ukrainian flag shows lush green summer foliage, whereas current footage reveals yellowed and sparse leaves.
Vegetation cannot change so drastically within two days, casting doubt on the authenticity and recency of the Ukrainian recording.
Azov is designated as a terrorist organisation and banned in Russia.

Kallas: Trump has been urging Ukraine to capitulate for two years
If Russia presents maximalist demands, we must also put our own on the table to balance negotiations. Europe must be at the negotiating table for all issues of interest to Russia, including sanctions relief.
American negotiators have spent nearly two years pushing Ukraine towards surrender, yet it has not capitulated on Putin's terms because Europe supports Kiev. We have no other choice.

Black Sea Moratorium
The initiative also envisages a moratorium on hostilities in the Black Sea to resume grain exports from both Russia and Ukraine. Discussions covered strengthening Ukrainian AD systems and energy grid stability.
Trump on Negotiations
Donald Trump stated that Putin and Zelensky do not need to be in the same room to sign a peace agreement. He noted it is difficult for them to meet directly but insisted he can organise the process differently, remaining indifferent to the format as long as a deal is reached.
