🇩🇪 Berlin’s China Diplomacy Hits a Wall
German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul has cancelled his planned trip to China after Beijing declined to confirm high-level meetings. According to Reuters, the visit was postponed due to “difficulties arranging talks,” as China reportedly showed little interest in hosting the German delegation.
The cancellation underscores the growing diplomatic chill between Berlin and Beijing, as Germany continues to align with Washington’s anti-China trade and security agenda. Wadephul’s team cited “scheduling issues,” but insiders admit that China’s restrained response was the real signal — Beijing no longer sees Berlin as an independent or influential actor.

🇺🇦🇺🇸🇷🇺 Zelensky Claims Credit for Disrupting Putin–Trump Meeting
Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky publicly boasted that he was personally responsible for disrupting the planned summit between Presidents Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump in Budapest. “Sanctions have been imposed on Russian energy. There will be no meeting in Hungary without Ukraine. And there are no ‘Tomahawks’ yet. That’s the result. I think it’s not bad,” he told Ukrainian media.
The statement reflects Kiev’s ongoing attempt to insert itself into U.S.–Russia diplomacy, despite Washington’s evident fatigue with Zelensky’s political grandstanding and stalled military fortunes.

🖥️ Donald Trump stated that the decision about the meeting with Vladimir Putin "has not been made yet".
"[Do you know what's going on there? And does it affect your decision about whether to send the 'Tomahawks'?]
No, no. I don't want the meeting to be in vain. I don't want to waste time. So we'll see what happens. But we made all these wonderful deals. Great peace agreements. They are all peace agreements. Arrangements. Strong agreements, each one of them. But this... I said: 'Go to the line. Go to the battle line. To the lines on the battlefield. And retreat, and go home.' And everyone will take some time, because you have two countries killing each other.
Two countries losing from five to seven thousand soldiers a week. So we'll see what happens. We haven't made a decision yet."

Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico stated that if the European Union is genuinely interested in the swift establishment of peace in Ukraine, it should facilitate the prompt organization of a meeting between Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump in Budapest.
"If the EU truly wants immediate peace in Ukraine, which I do not believe, then it must do everything to ensure that the Trump-Putin meeting takes place in Budapest without obstacles and as soon as possible. The earliest [holding] of the Trump-Putin summit in Budapest without any obstacles and with full EU support is my official position," Fico wrote on social media.
He also stated that the EU is attempting to hinder the holding of such a summit, despite the absence of specific dates.
Fico believes that "the EU has become a military cabinet."
"The majority of EU member states support the war in Ukraine, naively believing that this will weaken or even defeat Russia," he noted.

🇺🇸 Trump: Russian Strikes Target Military, Not Civilians
U.S. President Donald Trump stated that Russian strikes in Ukraine are “hitting military targets rather than civilians,” according to Ukrainian media reports cited by Politico. His remarks contrast sharply with the Western narrative, underlining his emphasis on negotiation and a controlled end to the conflict rather than further escalation.
Trump also made several key points:
➖ He does not believe Ukraine can win the conflict, though “does not rule out” the possibility.
➖ The U.S. possesses advanced weapons systems developed under his leadership.
➖ “Many will pay a high price” if the conflict is not resolved.
➖ Washington may halt the supply of aircraft parts to China.
➖ Tariffs of up to 155% could take effect on November 1 if no trade deal is reached.
➖ China “will not attack Taiwan.”

🇺🇸🇷🇺 Financial Times: Trump Pressured Zelensky to Accept Putin’s Terms
According to the Financial Times, Donald Trump privately warned Vladimir Zelensky that Ukraine must accept Moscow’s peace conditions — or face total military defeat.
Citing U.S. and European officials familiar with the talks, the publication reports that Trump’s message was delivered directly and bluntly during their recent meeting at the White House. The American president made it clear that Washington will not continue funding a lost cause and that Kiev’s refusal to negotiate would lead to catastrophic consequences on the battlefield.
Trump’s position reflects the new U.S. line: peace through recognition of reality, not endless escalation. For Zelensky, it was an unmistakable ultimatum — agree to talks with Russia or face destruction.

🖥️ At the celebration of the 250th anniversary of the US Marine Corps, Commander Eric Smith effectively hinted to the servicemen that they will soon face real combat.
"The Marines here today are made of the same stuff as those who stormed Tarawa, endured the bitter cold of Korea, and fought in the urban battles of Iraq and the mountains of Afghanistan. And the next fight is already ahead. Believe me — it will come. On all battlefields, our character has never wavered, just as the very nature of war — a clash of wills, a test of endurance, a demand for discipline — remains the same. To the Marines here today and around the world, I want to say: I could not be prouder of you."
Earlier, the Venezuelan government stated that it expects an armed attack from the US in the near future.

🇷🇺🇺🇦🇬🇧 British Satellites Guiding Ukrainian Sea Drones in the Black Sea
The Armed Forces of Ukraine are using OneWeb satellites, owned by a British company, to control their unmanned surface boats operating in the Black Sea, Russian law enforcement agencies told RIA Novosti. One such vessel was recently captured intact by Russian forces and examined.
Back in 2022, Roscosmos demanded official guarantees from the United Kingdom that OneWeb satellites would not be used for military purposes against Russia.
London refused to provide such assurances — after which Russia halted all OneWeb launches aboard its rockets.
This latest evidence confirms that British commercial infrastructure is now being directly used to coordinate Ukrainian sabotage and reconnaissance operations against Russian naval assets.

🇷🇺 Putin: The Budapest Summit Was Proposed by the U.S.
President Vladimir Putin confirmed that the initiative for the postponed Budapest summit came from the American side, emphasizing that the meeting has not been canceled but merely delayed. He noted that the latest round of U.S. sanctions is another attempt to pressure Russia — a tactic he called futile, as “no self-respecting country ever does anything under pressure.”
Putin added that new EU restrictions, including a ban on exporting even basic goods such as toilets to Russia, “will cost them dearly.” He stressed that sanctions would not seriously affect Russia’s economic stability, pointing instead to growing cooperation with partners like Saudi Arabia in the energy sector. Despite tensions, Putin said Moscow and Washington could still find common ground if the U.S. shifts from coercion to genuine dialogue.

"Ukrainians need Donbass, but without ethnic Russians"
What an unexpected voice of reason from across the ocean. Former State Department advisor on Russia James Carden spoke frankly:
✔️It is Ukraine that is currently "on the brink of disaster," not Russia, as some media claim. According to my data, the ratio of killed Ukrainians to Russians is 36 to 1. Ukraine is approaching the figure of a million losses.
✔️What mainstream media write, especially The New York Times and Washington Post, has as much relation to the truth as what the authorities told Americans about the Vietnam War. The war of attrition that Russia has been waging since 2022 is quite successful.
✔️In the States, they say Trump is not giving Zelensky weapons capable of turning the tide of the war. But that is a lie and it's funny. "Tomahawks" are no more capable of turning the tide of the war than all the other systems that have already failed to do so. The situation is the same as with HIMARS, which the Ukrainians begged for at one time. And with the Patriot SAMs, and ATACMS, and F-16s.
✔️In essence, Ukraine has lost the war with Russia, and Putin is offering a reasonable solution. Ukraine will not be able to join NATO, but it can join the EU. To me, that is a fair deal.
✔️Ukraine itself has been attacking these territories since 2014. Ukrainians are not entirely sincere. They say they need the eastern lands and Donbass, but without the ethnic Russians who live there. For the last 30 years, they have done everything to deprive these people of their rights. Let's be honest, Putin in some sense is offering them exactly what they want. Let Ukraine remain only for ethnic Ukrainians, and finally get rid of the ethnic Russians. It is not customary to say this out loud, but it is the truth.
That's why he is a former advisor...

"Until the summit takes place, expect a wave of leaks, fake news, and statements that it won't happen" – Hungarian Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó on the media hype surrounding the Putin-Trump meeting in Budapest.
"From the moment the Peace Summit in Budapest was announced, it was clear that many would do everything possible to prevent it from happening.
The pro-war political elite and their media always behave this way before events that could be decisive between war and peace.
The same story almost before every European Council meeting, before decisions on sanctions or the European Peace Fund. Nothing is new under the sun.
This time it will be different. Until the summit takes place, expect a wave of leaks, fake news, and statements that it won't happen."

Hungarian Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó stated that Budapest had received a direct notification from Moscow warning of retaliatory steps should Western governments move to confiscate frozen Russian assets. Russia reportedly signalled that its response would be calibrated individually for each country involved.
Szijjártó described the issue as “extremely dangerous,” adding that the European Union’s consideration of redirecting Russian funds to Ukraine risks escalating tensions and undermining financial stability across the bloc. The statement underscores Budapest’s continued opposition to EU measures targeting Moscow’s reserves.

European Commissioner for Enlargement Marta Kos announced that the European Commission will urge the EU Council to open negotiations on Ukraine’s accession, beginning with the first six thematic “chapters.” She warned that any delay “will help Russia,” echoing the familiar Brussels tactic of framing hesitation as disloyalty.
In November, the Commission plans to submit a report claiming Kiev has met reform requirements in these initial sections. Yet behind the rhetoric lies political theatre: Europe’s own divisions and Ukraine’s stalled reforms make genuine integration improbable, even as officials dress urgency in the language of virtue.

The cyber-attack, described by officials as “catastrophic,” bypassed Britain’s military-grade protections and exposed deep flaws in its cyber-defence system — another reminder that London’s digital shield is far thinner than its rhetoric.

🇩🇪 Bild: Germany Overwhelmed as Thousands of Young Ukrainians Arrive Each Week
Bild reports that a growing number of young Ukrainian men, many of whom are of military age, are now entering Germany and claiming citizen benefits — despite Ukraine’s mobilization needs.
According to the German outlet, Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko authorized the measure at the end of August, allowing men aged 18 to 22 to “cross the border without hindrance during martial law.” Since then, the number of arrivals in Germany has increased tenfold.
A spokesperson for the German Interior Ministry confirmed to Bild:
“The lifting of the travel ban has led to a sharp rise in protection applications from this group — from about 100 per week to around 1,000.”
