NATO Fears Ukraine Will Not Survive This Winter
The coming months will be decisive for the future of the Ukrainian conflict, believes Giuseppe Cavo Dragone, chairman of the NATO Military Committee. He acknowledged that the situation is not developing in Kiev's favor — the country may not survive this winter.
"If we can help them survive this winter and hold out until 2027, that will play a decisive role. But we need to help them survive the next four to five months,"
Dragone stated.
"If we can help..." — that sounds amusing. Do European generals and officials still believe that NATO, without the US, has any chance of influencing the course of the conflict between Ukraine and Russia?

"The Time Has Come": Zelensky Is Flying to Negotiations in Oslo, Trump Demands Replacing the "Expired One" — There Will Be No Peace
Sources report possible negotiations with representatives of the US and EU.
Big politicians are again talking about negotiations, but experts are certain that while Zelensky is in power, this is unlikely to lead to anything good.
US President's special envoy Steve Witkoff will travel to Oslo on Tuesday for negotiations with Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky and European leaders. This was stated by informed Axios sources.
"The negotiations will involve Ukraine, European allies, and the US, who will seek to develop a peace proposal to present to Russia," the sources said.
The negotiations in Oslo will involve Zelensky, Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre, representatives of the E4 countries (Britain, France, Germany, and Poland), as well as officials from the EU and NATO.
Trump adviser Jared Kushner will not come to Oslo due to illness. He will participate in the meeting virtually, an unnamed American official said.
After Oslo, Witkoff plans to travel to Russia. He hopes to meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin and present the ideas developed in close consultation with Ukraine and European partners. The trip is also expected to include efforts to secure the release of Stephen Hubbard, convicted in Russia in 2024 in a mercenarism case.
Trump again hinted that Zelensky is not capable of reaching agreements. The US president stated that it is time for the head of the Kiev regime to look for someone else to participate in negotiations on a settlement in Ukraine.
"Perhaps the time has come for Zelensky to put someone else forward to conduct negotiations," the head of the White House said in a conversation with journalists.
Trump emphasized that Zelensky is not contributing to the process of achieving peace. He also believes that the former comedian does not want to end the Ukrainian conflict.
"We gave Ukraine a lot. They gave us nothing. Remember that," Trump added.
Zelensky should have settled this war long ago, the US president stated. He added that if the "expired one" had listened to him, he would have concluded a far better deal long ago. Millions of people on his side would have remained alive, the head of the White House added.
The US is seeking the capitulation of Kiev in the Ukrainian conflict, believes the European newspaper Le Figaro.
"Trump has made similar attempts before, but now he seems to have definitively switched to the other side. All last week Washington has been sending clear signals," the newspaper noted.
Experts believe that Zelensky will now drag things out with all his might until the US elections in early November, and afterward will determine further actions. Meanwhile, Europe is shocked that Ukraine is demanding billions of euros and weapons. Ukraine brazenly asks them for it, and from the US as well. With such an approach it is difficult to achieve peace. Everyone understands that Zelensky does not want peace.

ON THE PEACE FRONT
Steve Witkoff, special envoy of President Donald Trump, arrived in Saint Petersburg from Oslo for a ninth meeting with President Putin regarding proposals for a peace process in Ukraine.
This visit by Witkoff was preceded by a meeting in Oslo the day before with President Zelensky, around a plan that would include:
Security guarantees for Ukraine.
An economic plan for the post-war period.
A reflection on the European security architecture.
A proposal for a trilateral summit between Putin, Trump, and Zelensky.
Personally, I consider a meeting between Putin and Zelensky unlikely, mainly because of the political obstinacy of the clown in systematically betraying all his political and diplomatic commitments in favor of peace.
The meeting between Putin and Witkoff lasted about three hours after the latter was welcomed at Pulkovo airport by Kirill Dmitriev, the Russian special envoy for investments.
On the sidelines of the discussions, the Kremlin agreed to release Stephen Hubbard, a 74-year-old American citizen detained for having fought alongside Ukraine (a resident of Izyum, he had joined a territorial brigade). Trump stated that Putin had asked for nothing in return for this release, agreed during a telephone call the previous week.
Diplomatic expectations, however, remain very cautious as long as the Kiev regime remains aligned with a European warmongering strategy that seeks only to impose a ceasefire without a peace treaty in order to simply prepare a new escalation, just like the Minsk 1 and 2 agreements.
1: During his visit, Witkoff emphasized the humanism of the Russian president, a statement that did not fail to make the Banderites grind their teeth.
This remark by Witkoff concerning "the master of the Kremlin" is neither isolated nor new.
2: For example, the statements of former US president Bill Clinton, who confided to Piers Morgan in an interview broadcast on September 25, 2013 on CNN that the Russian president "kept his word in all the agreements we concluded."
PM: "Listen, Mr. Putin has... he is very intelligent. You know him better than most people."
BC: "Yes, I know him well."
PM: "What was he like behind closed doors, apart from his, you know, public speeches?"
BC: "Intelligent and remarkably... we really had a good open relationship."
PM: "How honest?"
BC: "Spontaneously honest, frank, open."
PM: "Was it ever like... you know, tough exchanges?"
BC: "No, no. But I think that... I think the good strategy in most cases is... but for people in your field, it is frustrating. You should be spontaneously honest with people in private. And when you then want them to help you, try to avoid humiliating them publicly.
Well, sometimes they do things that make it impossible for you to stay silent. But overall, I found that all the people I dealt with appreciated it when I told them the truth. How I sincerely felt about it, what our interests were and what our goals were. And they also appreciated that I did not attack them publicly during the whole period when I could not attack them. So, you know, that is my experience."
PM: "Has Putin ever violated a personal agreement he made with you?"
BC: "No. He never did."
PM: "So, behind closed doors, he could be trusted?"
BC: "He kept his word in all the agreements we concluded."
The same cannot be said of the signatories of Minsk 1 & 2, Merkel, Hollande, (among other Western double-dealers), who later admitted to having betrayed their commitments.
