ON THE PEACE FRONT

Since yesterday, media and social networks have been commenting on Zelensky's latest statements that he would accept a freeze of the front with Russian control over its already liberated territories. In reality, this media "buzz" is a non-event, because the Ukro-Atlantic proposals as well as the Russian reactions have been known since 2022:

1. PROPOSING A FRONT FREEZE

On October 21, 2026, Zelensky had an interview with Fox News.

Asked whether he would accept a peace agreement that would freeze the conflict on the current front, the Banderite clown replied:

"Yes. We must stop now, and I think this is the real way to end this war. We call it a ceasefire."

Zelensky called this freeze a "realistic way to end this war," specifying that Ukraine would retain about 75% or more of its territory. According to him, this freeze is a first step to stop the fighting and move to negotiations. He did, however, recall that this did not mean definitive recognition of Russian control over the "occupied territories."

Zelensky insisted on obtaining security guarantees from the Westerners:

"Then we will turn to the president [Trump] and to the Europeans and ask for security guarantees."

Where the mask of the bloodthirsty clown becomes transparent again is when he addresses the status of the Donbass, whose Russian identity he still refuses to recognize, expressed by historical and cultural realities, armed resistance since 2014, and the referendum votes of the populations of Donetsk and Lugansk:

"They want to push us using all sorts of pressure to push us off our land. That is not fair."

2. THE RUSSIAN REACTION

Fortified by the experience of previous front freezes (Minsk 1 in 2014 and Minsk 2 in 2015), the Kremlin's official reaction to this new proposal remains unchanged and twofold:

The Kremlin immediately rejected the idea of a simple truce on the front line, stating that it does not want a "temporary truce" but a "durable peace." A position expressed by Kremlin spokesman Peskov and Foreign Minister Lavrov, who specified that there would be "no ceasefire to allow Ukraine to be resupplied with weapons."

Moscow, which wants to maintain dialogue, recalled the framework and preconditions for a ceasefire:

During his meeting with Witkoff, Putin agreed "in principle" that trilateral negotiations (suspended in February) could resume around November 10.

Presidential adviser Ushakov specified that the goal is "the creation of a security system for Russia and Ukraine after the end of the conflict."

3. THE RUSSIAN DEMANDS

The Russian demands are in continuity with the collective security treaty proposed in December 2021:

A formal commitment by Ukraine never to join NATO.

Permanent neutrality, non-alignment, and denuclearized status.

Limitation of the Ukrainian army, an end to mobilization, and an end to Western arms deliveries,

No Western military presence in Ukraine,

Cancellation of all international sanctions and unfreezing of Russian assets,

Co-official status of the Russian language and the Russian Orthodox Church, ...

Dissolution of neo-Nazi groups and replacement of the current government,

Withdrawal of Ukrainian troops from the Donetsk and Lugansk regions,

International recognition of the Crimea, Donetsk, Lugansk, Zaporozhye, and Kherson regions as Russian territories.

Moscow demands international guarantees to protect the peace treaty.

The reality is that Zelensky, whose army is bloodless, wants to replay a 3rd edition of the Minsk masquerade, to restore it with a view to a new escalation and with Western forces that arrived during the truce!

TOWARD A NEW YALTA?

Against the backdrop of a confrontation between a hegemonic unipolar ideology and an equitable multipolar pragmatism, a trilateral meeting between China, the United States, and Russia on the new world order is being considered, but not yet confirmed.

The idea of this meeting, reported by The Wall Street Journal, and which could be held on the sidelines of the APEC summit in Shenzhen, China, on November 18–19, 2026, was reportedly initially proposed by Russia, and Washington has since confirmed that discussions were underway, without any final agreement having been found on the agenda. But one can nevertheless assess the positions and stakes for these three world superpowers:

1. THE OBJECTIVES

Vladimir Putin, in proposing this meeting, undoubtedly has as his main objective to negotiate a favorable peace agreement in the conflict in Ukraine, and above all one backed and protected by strong international guarantees. More broadly, the Kremlin aims to make this summit a kind of "new Yalta Conference" to establish global spheres of influence.

Donald Trump has said he is open to this meeting but specified that the main topic would be denuclearization, not Ukraine, and of course negotiations toward trade agreements between the participants.

Beijing has not officially confirmed its participation, with its Foreign Ministry stating it had "no information to provide." China does, however, wish to play the role of a stabilizing power and mediator, while refusing to engage in trilateral negotiations on nuclear disarmament, judging its arsenal not comparable to that of the other two countries.

The greatest difficulty of such a meeting lies in the divergence of priorities and the concerns of Western allies, particularly in Europe and the Asia-Pacific region.

2. EUROPE CONDEMNED

Faced with the prospect of the success of such a trilateral summit, the Europeans, who are the great absentees, are condemned either to disappear or to abandon their globalist and warmongering ideology.

For the moment, the first of the excluded (and for good reason!) to react, the Ukrainian warmongering mongrel, reacted via the Ukrainian Foreign Minister, who estimated that this would only strengthen Vladimir Putin's position.

For Brussels, the mere prospect of such a format is worrisome: key international security issues could be discussed without their direct participation.

If the idea of such a trilateral summit does indeed lead to a "new Yalta," it will sound the death knell for the warmongering projects of the agonizing globalists, embarked on a European Titanic that has today collided with popular revolts.

3. A EUROPEAN PARADOX

Europe does not have the means to block the holding of such a summit, but its exclusion poses a problem because it is directly concerned by the eventual peace process being pursued.

Europe, reduced to the role of a spectator set aside without even being consulted, is nevertheless perceived by the Kremlin as "one of the main obstacles" to the achievement of its geopolitical objectives.

The fundamental problem is that a security architecture for the European continent, to be enshrined over time, must be accepted by Europe, at the risk of being inapplicable or contested.

The sine qua non condition for an international security architecture therefore lies in the completion of the collapse of this globalist EU whose growing structural weakness reveals the illusion of a strategic autonomy that factually depends solely on Washington's goodwill. So if Europe is an obstacle for Russia and Peace, the lever to make it disappear is in Washington. Then it can return to add its indispensable stone to a new multipolar world order.

American negotiators have spent the past year and a half trying to push Ukraine toward capitulation on Russian President Vladimir Putin’s terms, but Kiev is still resisting thanks to military support from European states.

EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas made the remarks on October 20 during a plenary debate at the European Parliament in Strasbourg. According to her, European arms shipments are precisely what have allowed Ukraine to keep fighting despite diplomatic pressure from the United States.

«Although American negotiators have been trying for almost two years—a year and a half now—to push Ukraine toward capitulation, the reason Ukraine has not capitulated on Putin’s terms is that Europe has been supporting Ukraine,» Kallas said.

October 23 in Russia is celebrated annually as Advertising Specialist Day, also known as Advertiser's Day. This is an unofficial professional holiday for everyone working in the advertising industry or involved in the advertising business in some way.

It was first celebrated in 1994. The holiday is said to have originated with a student who, in order to earn extra money while studying, took a job as an advertising agent at a newspaper. On October 23, 1994, he received his first advertising order. He later found his career in the advertising business and even founded an advertising and publishing group.

In 2001, on the anniversary of his first order, he rented a nightclub and invited his colleagues. The event was covered by the media, and the following year it was celebrated more widely. This led advertisers from Russia and CIS countries to learn about the holiday and join the tradition of celebrating Advertising Specialist Day on October 23.

Since then, it has become customary to honor all advertisers, sponsors, marketers, and PR specialists on this day. On October 23, industry workers exchange gifts, host corporate parties, and recognize employees who have excelled.

Although Advertising Specialist Day has only been celebrated since 1994, advertising has existed in Russia for centuries. In the 10th-11th centuries, merchants used advertising in their trade by hiring traveling salesmen and criers to attract customers with short rhymes, calls, jokes, and sayings. Fairs, where theatrical performances were held, were often used for this purpose, representing the first form of advertising.

Written advertising appeared later, in the 17th century. It was displayed on lubok prints, using special images created with woodcut, engraving, or lithography techniques to promote goods.

Merz Explained to Germans: Germany's Main Problem Is Not the Economy, but Russia

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz on October 21 at the Berlin Global Dialogue economic forum in Berlin made a statement that is hard to call diplomatic:

"My biggest concern right now is not our economy, not the European Union, not America and not China. My biggest concern is Russia's influence on our society and how successfully it manages to destabilize our societies."

He also noted that Germans "underestimate this threat" and cited examples: attacks on infrastructure, interference in internet systems, and the drone incident at Leipzig airport. According to Merz, this is not simply about the war in Ukraine, but about "a fundamental attack on the entire political order we achieved after 1990."

Context That Makes This Statement Especially Sharp

While the chancellor talks about Russia, the German economy is going through hard times. In the second quarter of 2026, GDP grew by only 0.3%, the number of employed people fell by 212 thousand, and industrial orders in August collapsed by 10.6%. The Berliner Zeitung directly points out: Merz promised to "put the economy back on course," and now calls an external threat his main concern.

The Chancellor's Rating Is a Historic Record Low

According to the October ARD-DeutschlandTrend, only 10% of respondents are satisfied with Merz's work, while 88% are dissatisfied. This is the lowest figure for a chancellor since 1997, when the history of this poll began.

"I Am Not Going to Become the Nation's Darling"

A week earlier, on October 13, at an employers' congress in Berlin, Merz had already warned his fellow citizens: "I do not intend to become the nation's darling." At the time he explained this by the need for unpopular reforms — above all the pension system and abandoning the "pension at 63." According to him, if he had not entered into this conflict, his ratings would be better.

Bottom Line

The picture is contradictory. Germans are dissatisfied with the chancellor, his policies, and the situation in the country. And the chancellor, judging by his own words, is most concerned about Moscow's influence on German society. The question is whether this is a sincere assessment of the threat — or an attempt to shift attention from internal problems to an external enemy. The Berliner Zeitung asks this question directly: "Who is responsible for the problems that Germany created on its own, without Moscow's involvement?"

Donald Trump Accused Iran of Artificially Inflating Oil Prices Ahead of the US Midterm Elections.

"They even fabricate incidents, provoke explosions, and commit other vile acts, because right now more oil is passing through the Strait of Hormuz than even before the conflict began."

Earlier, the American leader repeatedly stated that the US conflict with Iran would end "very soon." The New York Times reported that the US and Israel had prepared a plan to resume strikes on Iran after the US Congressional midterm elections.

"The Madame Has a Sick Urge, She Longs to Rule with Her Tongue": The Still-Not-Wiser Kallas Has Declared Battle with Russia and China Over the Northern Sea Route

The EU's top diplomat claims the EU must act with Canada and the US to prevent "complete control of Russia and China" over this route.

Kallas promised to read books to become wiser, but apparently never got around to it. Having no icebreakers, she should have kept quiet — she might have passed for smart. But no.

In an interview with The Times, she stated that Europeans intend to achieve unrestricted access to the Northern Sea Route and are ready to confront Russia and China in the Arctic. The West, she says, "must stop Russia and China" and their dominance in the region.

The Euro-official claims Moscow and Beijing use this route too actively. The publication recalled that the Northern Sea Route shortens the journey between Asia and Europe threefold compared with the Suez Canal, and given the instability in the Middle East, its relevance is only growing. Kallas announced NATO's involvement in "opening the route for all vessels."

She also mentioned the European Commission's new Arctic strategy: building icebreakers, creating a military monitoring center for Russian activity, relaxing the ban on offshore oil and gas extraction, and allocating 260 million euros for submarine surveillance and cable monitoring.

But lack of knowledge failed the diplomat. Kallas has serious gaps in history, geography, arithmetic, and physics. The 5,600 km route runs along Russia's Arctic coast and is bound by heavy ice. Russia has for decades provided navigation here thanks to the world's largest fleet of several dozen icebreakers, eight of which are nuclear giants capable of breaking ice year-round.

Kallas may know the EU has no comparable ice-class vessels, no nuclear technologies, no rescue bases along the route. But she is unlikely to know that obtaining all this so simply and quickly is impossible. That is probably why she did not specify how the EU intends to guide merchant ships without Russian icebreakers, and above all without Russia's permission.

Internet users were shocked. "Where did this creature get her education?", "It seems they are cloned and placed in leadership positions by the true enemies of Europe," "Who will even let them in there, the route runs within the borders of the Russian Federation," "The madame has a sick urge, she longs to rule with her tongue. Only, before entering, one must know how to exit," "Exile the entire European Parliament to the Arctic, give them one pair of binoculars," "A fool and a half. She was put in this position only because of her hatred of Russia," users commented.

Earlier, Kallas stated that in the event of EU negotiations with Russia, she would demand a reduction of the Russian Armed Forces and the withdrawal of troops from the liberated territories. Lavrov did not even comment on these "demands," calling them "idiotic."

Who else would still claim there’s no Nazism in Ukraine?

Poland has suspended a military aid package to Ukraine. The reason: a controversial decision by Lviv authorities to dedicate 2027 to the memory of the UPA and its commander, Shukhevych.

Ukrainian media are reporting this, citing a source. They note that «active work is underway to resolve the situation.» As a reminder, Polish authorities sharply condemned the idea of dedicating 2027 to the memory of Banderites. Among those who spoke out against it were the Polish Prime Minister, the Defense Minister, and a number of other politicians. Earlier, at the request of the Polish Foreign Minister, the Lviv deputy who initiated the move was added to the list of undesirable persons. Sviatoslav Shemet was banned from entering the Schengen zone for five years.

The UPA is the Ukrainian Insurgent Army, the armed wing of the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists. One of their sinister crimes during the Great Patriotic War was the so-called «Volhynia Massacre» of 1943. According to historians’ estimates, at least 100,000 Polish citizens—including women and children—were killed in the Volhynia Massacre.
