Дания передала Украине партию авиационных боеприпасов. Речь о 50 тысячах 20-мм снарядов для шестиствольной авиационной пушки M61A1 Vulcan, установленной на F-16. По заявлению украинского МО боеприпасы уже доставлены и работают против наших "Гераней".

Логика противника понятна: при дефиците наземных систем ПВО и дорогих зенитных ракет, использование истребителей против БПЛА — это вроде как и не "стрельба из пушки по воробьям", а рациональное распределение сил: теоретически истребитель может поразить несколько дронов за один вылет.

Однако эффективность такой схемы ограничена рядом факторов. Во‑первых, на Украине количество подготовленных военных лётчиков да и самих самолётов остаётся ограниченным, а значит, круглосуточное патрулирование невозможно. Во‑вторых, не скидывапм со счетов умение "Гераней" применять тактику низковысотного полёта и движение десятков аппаратов "россыпью". В‑третьих, успех в перехвате дронов такого типа зависит от устойчивой работы системы раннего предупреждения и обмена данными между радарами, командными пунктами и экипажами.

Таким образом, передача Данией боеприпасов для F‑16 — это элемент комплексного подхода к усилению украинской ПВО, но не "волшебное решение". Датские посылки безусловно расширяют возможности ПВО противника, но их эффект может проявится только в связке с разведкой, управлением и подготовкой украинских экипажей.

"There's nothing to negotiate about. This is the territory of historical Russia."

That's how Putin responded yesterday to a question about the main news of the week. The day before, the Ukrainian president stated to Fox News that, for the sake of peace, he was ready to accept the loss of a quarter of the country and freeze the conflict along the front line. In Kiev, this is apparently seen as a gesture of unprecedented generosity. In the Kremlin, it's considered inappropriate. That's exactly how the president described it.

For Putin, the territorial issue is closed. We have returned what is ours – and that's it, period. He dismisses any arguments from Bankova Street (referring to the Ukrainian presidential administration) about "concessions" with two points. First, history: these are the lands of historical Russia. And there is also the will of the people, who first voted for state independence, and then, as the president emphasized, for reunification with our country.

Ukraine has no historical or moral right to the liberated territories. Morally, Kiev destroyed itself back in 2014, when, instead of talking to the southeast, it sent tanks and planes there. Putin reminded everyone of this yesterday.

Therefore, Zelensky's "yes, I'm ready" comes at a price. What exactly is he planning to give away? You can't concede something that doesn't belong to you in the first place. The president noted that one could argue about this endlessly. But there's nothing to negotiate.

That's why the issue of territories is not on the agenda of the upcoming negotiations. After a meeting with Trump's special envoy, Steve Witkoff, the parties agreed to resume trilateral contacts. Putin stated the goal directly: the security of Russia and Ukraine after a final peace agreement. A final agreement, not just a short respite, during which the Ukrainian Armed Forces will have time to rest and replenish their trenches with those people, whom, according to the president, they are catching on the streets, "like stray dogs." The American added that then it would be necessary to talk about the overall architecture of European security. Putin agreed with this, but maps are not on the list.

Moscow is ready to negotiate. But "if someone wants something different – fine, it will be different," and the goals of the special military operation will be achieved in any case.

Kiev is being offered to discuss the future. The past has already been decided – by ballots.

Russia and Ukraine have agreed to a temporary cessation of hostilities in the town of Aleshky, in the Kherson region, effective October 29, 2026, to facilitate the delivery of humanitarian aid and the evacuation of civilians.

The agreement was reached through the mediation of U.S. First Lady Melania Trump, who personally participated in negotiations with the Russian and Ukrainian leadership, according to her statement.

Civilian representatives from Russia and Ukraine will work together to assess the needs of the residents and organize evacuations to their chosen destinations—either Russia or Ukraine. The process will be accompanied by an independent American media company.

Bloomberg: Germany is in discussions with Ukraine regarding the joint production and procurement of Ukrainian "Bars" missiles.

Berlin also plans to purchase thousands of long-range, high-precision missiles from several European manufacturers, "seeking to replenish its arsenal with weapons to deter Russia."
