Since Trump's inauguration, no new major U.S. funding packages for new military aid to Ukraine have been passed, raising concerns about Kyiv running out of key systems like the Patriot.

Ukraine will purchase 25 more Patriot air defense systems in a long-term arrangement with the United States, President Volodymyr Zelensky told journalists in Kyiv on Oct. 20.

Despite Russia's broad efforts to capture the entire Donetsk region by the end of this year, the deadline for its occupying forces has reportedly been pushed back to March 2026. The new deadline looks unrealistic, as Russia is unlikely to capture the entire region by 2027 if its current pace of advance continues.

"""""

I heard Putin describe the Russian tactics as a "trickle advance". Since a group of as few as 3 soldiers inevitably draws a drone, Russians advance in ones and twos.

Of course, the same logic applies to Ukraine, but even more so, since Russia attained the edge in drone warfare, along with every other armament.

Russia penetrates the front line in a strategically important area ... Avdeevka, Pokrovsk, Ugledar ... bait for Ukrainian forces. But any time the AFU attempts to concentrate forces, or even move on important roads, Russian drones, missiles, and bombs are there to greet them. AFU forces are being not so slowly surrounded in innumerable cauldrons and massacred, either in the cauldron itself or on routes into, and out.

Having watched way too many videos of drone attacks posted by both sides, it looks as if the AFU attacks individual soldiers or positions (buildings, basements) while Russia attacks vehicles. Also, the AFU rarely uses armored vehicles since those also draw drones, but uses civilian vehicles.

Altho I think the AFU defense lines are porous now, we still won't see "big arrow" Russian advances bc of cautious, soldier-sparing Russian tactics. Big cities are surroubded and are falling, but only little by little, if they're defended by Azov troops. Otherwise they are abandoned. Past the defensive line of big cities I think we'll see "splotches" appear in random places, dictated by thinness of defenders, grow, and coalesce.

Victory Before Russian Orthodox Church Christmas – A Gift From Putin To His People

The "logic" of impending victory goes like this:

Hitler invaded Russia on June 22, 1941. Germany's unconditional surrender occurred on May 7, 1945.

There were 1,415 days between June 22, 1941, and May 7, 1945

1,415 days after Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine began on February 24, 2022, will be January 9, 2026.

Russia celebrates Christmas on January 7th because the Russian Orthodox Church refused to adopt the Gregorian calendar in 1582.

The War will be over before Christmas. Putin guarantees it because there is no possibility that the Ukraine War, also known as the Special Military Operation, is bigger than World War II.

That's just you doing bad "mind reading" again. Maybe you should listen to what Putin actually says, for a change.

He's been very clear, excessively repetitious, of Russia's goals for this SMO. Also, he's being seriously criticized for not moving faster and/or being more aggressive militarily, and he's constantly pushing back.
Sheesh!

I believe in solving problems, not sharing them.


Getting to Know Russia

By Larry Johnson, former CIA

Today was fascinating and exhausting. I had six separate podcasts, where I interviewed the following six gentleman. Quite a diverse group… Three are members of the Duma, one is the former Prime Minister of Ukraine, one is a popular journalist and one — Mr. Ionov — played basketball at an Alabama prep school and has a $10 million FBI bounty on his head. More about him later. All of these will eventually be translated and posted into English. I will keep you posted.

Let’s start with Evgeny Popov:



Evgeny Georgievich Popov (born September 11, 1978, Moscow) is a Russian journalist, television host, correspondent, and political commentator. He is the host of the programs “60 Minutes” and “Evening with Vladimir Solovyov” on the Rossiya-1 TV channel. A deputy of the State Duma of the VIII convocation and a member of the State Duma Committee on International Affairs, he is known as one of the most prominent representatives of the state-patriotic position in Russian media. Current Status in 2025:

Deputy of the State Duma of the Russian Federation
Member of the State Duma Committee on International Affairs
Host of “60 Minutes” and “Evening with Vladimir Solovyov”
Regular participant in key international political forums

As we chatted after our recorded session, I learned that Evgeny has traveled to 44 of the 50 states. He actually like American and Americans even though he is on the sanction list and is no longer allowed to visit the US. Yep, we can’t have bona fide journalists wandering around America… He might report some real news.

Next up, Dmitry Nosov:



Dmitry Yuryevich Nosov (born October 17, 1980, Irkutsk) is a Russian politician and statesman. He is a Deputy of the State Duma of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation and a member of the State Duma Committee on Physical Culture, Sports, Tourism, and Youth Affairs. A former professional athlete, he holds the titles of Master of Sports in Judo and Sambo and is an Honored Master of Sports of Russia. He is known for his active civic stance and work in youth policy and sports development. He was the main lobbyist of the anti-tobacco law and has authored 40 legislative proposals. Of the four laws adopted despite the government’s opposition, two were initiated by Nosov. He is one of Putin’s favorite judokas—they first met in person in 2004. Nosov has also worked in television.Current Status in 2025:

Deputy of the State Duma of the Russian Federation
Member of the State Duma Committee on Physical Culture, Sports, Tourism, and Youth Affairs
Member of the State Duma Commission on the Development of the Far East and the Arctic
Member of the Interfactional Parliamentary Group for Sports Development

Dimitry is a terrific young guy who is focused on promoting youth sports and encouraging a healthy life style. I asked him about if there was a religious influence in his life and he replied, “my parents are communists and we did not focus on religion as a grew up.” However, he emphasized that his parents taught him the importance of honesty and integrity, which he insisted continues to guide his life.

Meet the [former Ukrainian] Prime Minister:



Nikolai Yanovich Azarov (born December 17, 1947, Kaluga) is a Russian and Ukrainian statesman, scientist, and politician. He served as Prime Minister of Ukraine (2010-2014) and was a People’s Deputy of Ukraine in several convocations. He holds a Doctor of Geological-Mineralogical Sciences degree and is a professor. Since 2014, he has resided in Russia and actively engages in socio-political activities. He is the Co-chairman of the International “National Unity Club.” Current Status in 2025:

Co-chairman of the International ” National Unity Club”
Advisor on International Affairs
Regular expert on Russian political talk shows
Author of publications on Ukrainian politics and international relations

Nikolai is a delightful gentleman. He does carry an air of sadness given what has happened to the country he once served. He reminded my that Ukraine had 57 million people as residents in 2012, but it now hovering around 20,000.

Meet Alexander, the political terrorist worse than Al-Jawlani:



This kid was a genuine delight. Alexander Viktorovich Ionov (born December 12, 1989, Moscow) is a Russian political figure, President of the Anti-Globalization Movement of Russia since 2011. He is accused by the United States of organizing a “malicious campaign” to interfere in American elections and is on the FBI’s Most Wanted list with a reward of up to $10 million for information leading to his arrest. He holds two higher education degrees in economics and vocational education. Current Status in 2025:

President of the Anti-Globalization Movement of Russia
Defendant in U.S. criminal cases
Former member of the Public Oversight Commission (until 2021)
Subject of U.S. Treasury Department sanctions lists

The charges against him are outrageous. Think about this… He has not killed a single person or directed someone else to kill Shia, Christians or Kurds, yet the US Government still has a reward for $10 million on his head while a bona fide international terrorist — Al Jawlani — has the blood of thousands on his hands but gets a pass by the Trump administration.

A Hard Ass General:



Andrey Viktorovich Gurulyov is a Russian statesman and military expert. He is a Deputy of the State Duma of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation and a member of the State Duma Committee on Defense. A retired Lieutenant General and former commander of the 58th Combined Arms Army, he is a combat veteran who participated in counter-terrorism operations in the North Caucasus. He is known as one of the most hardline and principled military experts in Russian politics. Current Status in 2025:

Deputy of the State Duma of the Russian Federation
Member of the State Duma Committee on Defense
Member of the State Duma Commission on the Development of the Far East and the Arctic
Regular military affairs expert in federal media

If a scriptwriter wanted to create a character for a Hollywood movie about the battle of Stalingrad, General Gurulyov is your man. He is no nonsense and very direct… But he also has a robust sense of humor. He agreed with me that the Russian General Staff has now embarked on a comprehensive attack designed to force the collapse of the Ukrainian military.

Lastly, there was Abbas Dzhuma:



Abbas Dzhuma (born July 10, 1993, Moscow) is a Russian international journalist, host at Radio Komsomolskaya Pravda, publicist, and participant in political talk shows. He specializes in analyzing geopolitical events in the Middle East and Central Asia. Fluent in Russian, Arabic, and English. Of mixed Russian-Syrian heritage. Head of the press service of the charitable foundation “SVOIM.” Current Status in 2025:

Host at Radio Komsomolskaya Pravda
Head of the press service of the “SVOIM” foundation
Regular expert on federal television channels
Board member of the “SVOIM” charitable foundation

SVOIM is a charity focused on providing longterm medical assistance to Russian veterans who were wounded in the Special Military Operation (SMO). He is not just sitting back watching things happen… He has taken up the cause of SVOIM and is making a difference in the lives of people.

After talking with these gentlemen for more than six hours, I was exhausted but also exhilarated.. I had a better understanding of Russian patriotism and Russian thinking.

War is an engineering project, with budgets and scheduled milestones. On this particular project, the project manager is pretending that he knows what he is doing, that he is on schedule and under budget, so that somebody in the Kremlin (or in Ukraine) doesn't fire two bullets into the back of his head, followed by canceling the whole project.

The Kremlin is leaning into its cognitive warfare effort to portray Russian forces as relentlessly advancing and a Russian victory as inevitable. This effort aims to obscure the reality that Russian forces are only making minimal gains at disproportionately high manpower costs and that Russia is unlikely to obtain its strategic objectives by force in the short- or medium-term.

The Kremlin is attempting to use all available informational avenues to convince Ukraine to acquiesce to the Kremlin’s demands by convincing them that a Russian victory is certain when it is anything but.

Ukraine nears war's end by spring 2026, officer says

The war Russia started against Ukraine has reached a decisive stage that could lead to the end of hostilities by spring 2026, a senior officer in the Ukrainian Armed Forces told BBC News Ukraine on Oct. 21.

The unnamed officer, speaking from the high command, said there are clear signs the fighting is winding down, likening it to the final round of a boxing match.

"There's a feeling that this is the final round, like in boxing," the officer said. “Both fighters are heavily fatigued, but they lunge at each other with their last strength, hoping for a decisive blow that brings victory before the final gong.”

Damage Estimated at $18 Billion and Rising

Analysts estimate damages exceeding $18 billion, combining halted exports, repair costs, and production losses. “You can’t easily replace what Orenburg does,” energy economist Tatiana Mitrova told the Financial Times.

As winter approaches, experts warn that the outage could pressure global gas markets. “This was a hit not just on Russia’s economy,” Mitrova said, “but on energy stability itself.”

When the propagandists turn on their Master: Russia’s ideological collapse

By Demian Shevko | October 21, 2025

https://english.nv.ua/opinion/when-russia-s-top-propagandist-turns-her
etic-the-collapse-of-putin-s-ideology-50554249.html


A strange thing has happened in Putin’s Russia: one of the regime’s most loyal prophets has become its accidental heretic.

The loyal mythmaker who saw too much

Alexander Prokhanov — the aging ultranationalist novelist, editor, and chief ideologue of Russian imperial mysticism — has seen his latest book, Lemner, abruptly vanish from store shelves. It was printed, advertised, distributed across Russia, and then suddenly recalled. Bookstores received quiet instructions to return all copies. State television, which once glorified him, now pretends he doesn’t exist.

. . . Russia’s loudest ideologues — Solovyov, Kurginyan, Medvedev — now sound like actors repeating lines they no longer believe.

Prokhanov, perhaps without intent, has written their requiem.

This is how ideologies die: not through revolt, but through exhaustion.

The heretic’s apology

When the scandal broke, Prokhanov panicked. He insisted the novel was “purely artistic,” that the offensive words belonged to “a negative character,” not to the author. He professed his love for Putin, his loyalty to the state, and his faith in Russian destiny.

But his excuses only made things worse.

Because once a system starts burning books, it doesn’t care who wrote them or why. In the Kremlin’s eyes, the novel Lemner crossed an invisible threshold — it transformed power from sacred to absurd. And that is unforgivable.

The same writer who only months ago received the Hero of Labor medal from Putin now finds himself on the edge of cultural exile. The question Russians are now whispering — half in irony, half in fear — is simple: Will they take the medal back?

Prigozhin’s ghost, Putin’s mirror

What makes Lemner particularly subversive is how it links Putin’s myth to the figure of Yevgeny Prigozhin — the warlord who turned against his master. In the novel, Lemner is both monster and martyr, a distorted reflection of the ruler who created him.

The text suggests that both men — the president and his mercenary — are trapped in the same moral ecosystem, feeding off each other’s violence. One breeds rebellion, the other breeds doubles. Both are victims of the same delusion: that death can be conquered by control.

By turning Prigozhin’s failed mutiny into a sacred tragedy and Putin’s vanity into necromancy, Prokhanov unintentionally completed the circle of Russian imperial myth. He showed that the system’s enemies and servants are indistinguishable — both animated by the same decaying god.

The implosion of empire

Every empire dies twice — first materially, then symbolically. The second death is slower and quieter. It comes when the words that once justified conquest stop making sense.

The Soviet Union didn’t collapse because of American pressure or Afghan defeat alone. It collapsed when its intellectual class stopped believing in the story. When even its poets spoke in euphemisms. When propaganda became parody.

Russia is now entering that same twilight. The war in Ukraine has drained its moral vocabulary. The language of heroism has curdled into superstition. And now, with Lemner, even the mythmakers are losing faith. . . .

Hey I know, let's ask Jack. I carry him around in my back pocket. In case you haven't heard comrade, I own him and his image now. I've taken it from him.

Hey Jack, do you agree? Is comrade signym a Putin propagandist? Point to yourself if you agree. Yup, I thought so.

Wow. You are so smart.

Why don't you get your thumb out of your asshole, Summer, and stop waving around that prop knife. You're going to poke your eyes out with that thing.

We know you picked a girl avatar because you're my little screen bitch and you like to look good for Daddy.

I don't give a shit.

We've got Liberals setting people on fire on subways here, and you ignore it.

I didn't hear you say one fucking word when that Ukrainian broad got stabbed to death on a subway by a nigger who had been arrested and let go over a dozen times by your George Soros funded DAs right before you murdered Charlie Kirk either.

Nobody gives a fuck about Ukraine.

Recent Russian war crimes in Pokrovsk highlight the humanitarian cost of Russian advances in more populated areas. Ukrainian volunteer Denys Khrystov published geolocated footage on October 19 showing several civilians that Russian forces murdered near the railway line in central Pokrovsk.[7] The Ukrainian Ministry of Foreign Affairs confirmed on October 21 that a Russian sabotage and reconnaissance group committed the murders in violation of international humanitarian law.[8] Donetsk Oblast Police Spokesperson Pavlo Diachenko reported on October 21 that Ukrainian authorities are still determining the exact number and nature of civilian casualties from the Russian attack.[9] Diachenko noted that Russian drone strikes prevent humanitarian volunteers from entering Pokrovsk and impede evacuation efforts. The recent murders reflect Russian forces’ policy of deliberately killing Ukrainian civilians, and the death toll will only increase should Russian forces continue to advance into populated urban areas such as Pokrovsk.[10]

Editorial: Europe, it’s time to finally be brave. Start with Russian assets

By The Kyiv Independent | October 22, 2025 12:09 PM

https://kyivindependent.com/editorial-europes-dangerous-delusion-about
-russias-war
/

A few weeks ago, U.S. Special Envoy Keith Kellogg gently berated Europe for not standing on its own two feet on the global stage and in confrontation with Russia.

"I don't think the Europeans know how good they are, you're really good at what you do, and you don't need the United States with you in an alliance, you can handle things on your own," he told the Warsaw Security Conference.

"It's like when my kids were ready to ride bicycles, they started with training wheels — you don't need any training wheels, you're pretty good at handling things on your own now."

The patronizing tone was well-deserved — even before U.S. President Donald Trump's latest pendulum swing back towards Russia over the weekend, Europe's theater of the "peace process" for ending Russia’s war in Ukraine has descended into a traveling festival of delusion.

Talk of pressuring Russia for an unconditional ceasefire is a distant memory, and months of European wooing of Trump have yielded exactly nothing.

Just a week ago, hopes of Tomahawks for Ukraine and real Western pressure on Russia seemed tangible, only to be derailed entirely by one phone call from Russian President Vladimir Putin to the White House.

When Trump — over two months after Alaska and the following meeting in Washington — ends up pushing Kyiv to accept Russia’s terms anyway, how does the picture of European leaders gathered in the White House to lick his boots and vaguely ponder "security guarantees" look in hindsight?

Moscow won't mind one bit — the Kremlin has once again been let off the hook and is free to resume deadly mass strikes on Ukrainian cities and continue pushing forward on the front line, all while pursuing its maximalist goals, centered around the "root cause" of a strong, independent Ukraine existing in the first place.

What then is the Coalition of the Willing — set up as it was in spring, exactly in response to a looming abandonment of Ukraine by Trump after the Oval Office confrontation — willing to do?

After months of coordinated effort to push Trump towards pressuring Russia led to nothing more than a literal rolling out of the red carpet for a fascist war criminal on U.S. soil, a new plan needs to be made.


The road to achieving a robust peace and the road to ensuring Ukraine’s (and Europe’s) security in the future are the same road.

Instead of a constant parade of statements, the Coalition of the Willing should really be willing to do what is really needed: to end the war by decisively breaking Russia’s conviction that it can break Ukraine and get away with it.

Nobody is asking European countries to send their troops right into battle. But there are still plenty of ways to show strength and intent to Putin.

First and foremost, Europe must take the opportunity this Thursday to loan Ukraine 140 billion euros using frozen Russian assets, a move that could help fund Kyiv for 2-3 years, and help resist and possibly even push back Russia's full-scale invasion.

But most importantly, it will demonstrate that Europe no longer needs those training wheels and is finally waking up to the fact that this is Europe's future at stake, and perhaps the people taking the steps necessary to preserve it should be… Europe.

But this would only be the first step in overturning the chronic delusion that has infested European capitals since Trump took office.

The Coalition of the Willing is still only speaking of taking action in the event of a ceasefire.

What is needed is a direct European military presence in Ukraine, with or without a ceasefire.

This means something like the SkyShield initiative; taking over the defense of the skies above western and central Ukraine with a combination of NATO fighter sorties, with the option of integrating batteries of surface-to-air missiles on the ground.

This means bringing European troops into Ukrainian territory to train — and learn from — their Ukrainian counterparts, streamlining the disjointed training process and improving both parties’ readiness.

This means making serious plans to deploy brigade or at least battalion-level forces (from the few European militaries that have the capacity, like France or Poland) into western or central Ukraine.

If that still sounds too scary to seriously consider, if Putin’s comments about any Western presence in Ukraine being a military target awakens visions of World War III, we understand, it’s hard.

But let’s consider the alternative.

Ukraine falls, and the world order where conquering other sovereign states was seen as unacceptable and the consequences unfathomable, falls with it.

Meanwhile, Russia has an economy juiced up on war spending, and a population molded and militarized for a larger confrontation with the West.

It has a military armed to the teeth with the equipment and knowledge for industrial-scale, drone-saturated warfare, while NATO armies are still learning their way around how a first-person view drone works.

In this scenario, Russia bears down on a divided, fearful Europe. It's already probing, sending drones deep inside Poland last month.

In a time when U.S. commitment to NATO’s Article 5 is more in question than ever, is Europe ready to respond when those drones can't be passed off as a one-off?

These are catastrophic visions for the future of the continent, and one that could come sooner rather than later if more isn’t done.

Ukraine’s front line holding is not a magical equation of money and aid, it is held by people, exhausted human beings whose inner strength doesn’t run according to long-term aid timelines.

If the military begins to buckle — very early warning signs of which we unfortunately saw in August near Dobropillia in the east — this would be the strongest card Russia could possibly hold, and any meager worth that the “security guarantees” Europeans are busy discussing now will disappear for good.

Is that what needs to happen before Europe considers braver action?

Sometimes it even feels like our military is doing Ukraine a disservice by holding the line so heroically, allowing Europe to continue to waste time deluding itself about guaranteeing security rather than making Russia stop.

The road to achieving a robust peace and the road to ensuring Ukraine’s (and Europe’s) security in the future are the same road.

That road is paved with brave action. But to even start on that path, the delusional messaging, the endless patting of oneself on the back, has to stop first.

The defense of Ukraine is the defense of Europe — European leaders have said so many times. It’s time they started acting like it.

Poland Signals Readiness to Arrest Putin on ICC Warrant

https://www.themoscowtimes.com/2025/10/21/poland-signals-readiness-to-
arrest-putin-on-icc-warrant-en-route-to-trump-summit-a90884


Poland could intercept President Vladimir Putin’s aircraft and hand him over to The Hague if he chose to fly over its airspace to meet U.S. President Donald Trump in Hungary, Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski said Tuesday.

“We cannot guarantee that an independent Polish court would not order a hypothetical aircraft carrying Putin to be brought to the ground and the suspect handed over to The Hague,” Sikorski said in an interview with Radio Rodzina.

Putin has been wanted by the Hague-based International Criminal Court since 2023 for the illegal deportations of Ukrainian children to Russia. Moscow is not a party to the ICC’s founding treaty and rejects its jurisdiction.

Hungary, where Trump said he and Putin had agreed to meet in the coming weeks, has vowed safe passage for the Russian president despite the ICC arrest warrant, which obligates its members to detain him on their soil.

Hungary has announced plans to withdraw from the ICC as of June 2, 2026.

Sikorski called the invitation of Putin to Budapest “distasteful,” arguing that it positions Hungary as “not part of the West but between the West and Russia” and calling for Ukraine’s participation in the summit.

President Volodymyr Zelensky visited Norway and Sweden on Oct. 22 to discuss support for Ukraine with the countries' leaders.

While Norway pledged additional funds for energy support, Sweden and Ukraine signed a letter of intent for a potential deal on up to 150 Gripen E fighter jets over the coming years.

The Saab JAS 39 Gripen is a light 4.5-generation fighter jet that can be used for both defensive and offensive tasks. Kyiv and Stockholm have repeatedly discussed the possibility of supplying the aircraft to Ukraine's Air Force, which already operates Western planes, such as the Mirage 2000 and F-16s.

Zelensky said that Ukraine aims to secure at least 100 Gripen fighter jets under the forthcoming contract. The contract's implementation is expected to begin next year, he added.

"We understand who we are fighting against, and Gripen is one of the best (fighters) in the world," Zelensky said, noting that Ukrainian pilots have already begun training on the Swedish planes.
