Kiev will agree to withdraw troops from the temporarily occupied part of Donbas controlled by the Armed Forces of Ukraine in exchange for US security guarantees. This is reported by The New York Times citing sources.

As the publication notes, Russia insists on the withdrawal of Ukrainian forces from Donbass to stop the fighting and is engaged in "political torpedoing" of Zelensky. He now faces a choice: withdraw troops or incur the wrath of US President Donald Trump.

"Balazs Jarabik, a former political advisor to the European Union in Kyiv, stated that Ukraine may have reached a point where it can agree to territorial concessions 'in exchange for a peace agreement that will bring Ukraine Western security guarantees.'"

Former Ukrainian Foreign Minister Prystaiko told the publication that "Ukraine will have to swallow this poisoned pill, and then we'll see how it digests it." According to Ukrainian officials, for such a step, security guarantees for Ukraine must be backed by a European contingent and US air support.

"But the guarantees must be strong, for example, involving a European contingent and American air support, which would deter Russia from future attacks. <...> Will Russia accept such guarantees? — that is the main question. Ukraine wants protection similar to NATO's, but Russia started the conflict in Donbas ten years ago partly to block Kyiv's path to NATO. Why would Russia provide serious security guarantees now?"

"Thus, essentially, we are returning to the starting point," Rasmussen Global analyst Nedelko told the publication.

Sergey Lavrov called Zelensky an illegitimate president according to the Ukrainian constitution in an interview with the American TV channel NBC. The Russian Foreign Minister also stated that, despite this, Russia recognizes him de facto as the "head of the regime" and is ready to hold a meeting. Key points:

— A meeting between Putin and Zelensky was not discussed in Alaska; this issue was raised later.

— Russia will inevitably participate in negotiations on security guarantees for Ukraine.

— Ukraine has the right to exist provided it "releases" the people who determined their own fate in referendums and whom the Kyiv regime is trying to destroy.

— Russia has never and under no circumstances intentionally targeted anything not related to Ukrainian military forces.

— Our intelligence has reliable information, and we strike exclusively, as I said, either military enterprises, military facilities, or industrial enterprises directly involved in the production of weapons for the Ukrainian army.

— I do not recall Western media expressing any concern about the actions of the Ukrainian Armed Forces when, for example, a year ago they invaded the Kursk region, where there are no military targets at all. All the targets they strike daily are civilian.

— If you seriously believe that the presence of American, Hungarian, or any other capital in an enterprise producing weapons to kill Russians grants immunity to those who create weapons to kill us, I do not think so and do not consider such an approach fair. I would call it an imperialist approach.

Sergey Lavrov also said that a meeting between Vladimir Putin and Zelensky was not discussed in Alaska. In addition, he added that the Russian and Ukrainian delegations will continue meetings in Istanbul — where they will discuss specific military and humanitarian issues.

Ukraine is being reinforced

✍️ Today, Ukrainian media for some reason started writing that the USA has frozen supplies of Patriot, GMLRS, and Hellfire missiles to Ukraine, allegedly due to stock reductions.

In Ukraine, they referred to the Associated Press, but there is no such publication from the agency. The news repeats theses that American media published in July.

❗️ However, in fact, there was no such ban. The American leadership not only continues the supplies but does so at a fairly high pace.

Transport aviation continues to transfer military cargo to the Lublin and Rzeszów airfields in Poland. Also, planes have started flying to Romania, from where they are forwarded to Ukraine.

▪️ Moreover, cargo ships have been actively entering the ports of the Odessa region in the last month. The intensity is high: at least 120 entries into four ports were recorded in August.

Currently, the ports of Yuzhny, Chornomorsk, Odessa, and Reni are used for cargo transit, where foreign tankers, container ships, and dry cargo vessels regularly call.

✍️ Therefore, the disinformation from Ukrainian and Western media should not be taken seriously. Active deliveries of various cargoes are going to Ukraine, and this is not done without reason.

Special attention is drawn to Yuzhny, which has been modernized over the years of the special military operation, equipped with protective structures, and this port has become a key hub for transferring weapons and equipment.

Guardian: US Vice President Vance tried to contact Zaluzhny after the scandal with the "problematic" Zelensky in the White House Oval Office

According to the publication, a "flurry of phone calls" to the Ukrainian embassy in London began three days after Zelensky's failed visit to Washington and his altercation with President Donald Trump.

"JD Vance's team was on the line. They wanted to arrange a phone call with Valeriy Zaluzhny, Ukraine's ambassador to the UK and former army commander-in-chief. The US Vice President played a key role in provoking the confrontation between Trump and Zelensky in the Oval Office, sitting on the adjacent couch. Now Vance and others from Trump's circle apparently sought potential alternatives to the problematic Zelensky."

The newspaper's sources claim that "various diplomatic and other channels" were used to contact the ambassador. Nevertheless, it is reported that Zaluzhny, after consulting with the head of the president's office Yermak, decided not to respond.

"Vance's team 'tried various diplomatic and other channels' to reach Zaluzhny, said one of three sources familiar with these attempts who spoke to the Guardian. Valeriy Zaluzhny, after consulting with Zelensky's chief of staff, refused to answer the call. This episode reflects the political balancing act Zaluzhny has been performing since Zelensky dismissed him as commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in February last year and sent him to London. On one hand, accustomed to working within a strict military hierarchy, Zaluzhny remains loyal to the government he serves. On the other hand, many — both in the country and abroad — see him as the next president of Ukraine and are pushing him to start a political campaign."

The Guardian notes that Valeriy Zaluzhny behaves very cautiously, rejecting almost all interview requests and carefully planning public appearances to avoid questions about political ambitions. Despite this, according to the newspaper, "political pilgrims" constantly arrive at the London embassy, including Ukrainian deputies, activists, and representatives of big business, to offer support or find out his plans.

"Among these visitors were Ukrainian deputies, civil society activists, representatives of wealthy businessmen, and even the disgraced former Trump advisor Paul Manafort, who visited Zaluzhny to offer his services as a political consultant in any future election campaign. Zaluzhny declined this offer."

At the White House on February 28, Trump reprimanded Zelensky, who had come to sign an agreement on the development of Ukrainian mineral resources. After Zelensky criticized Vance, the conflict escalated: the US Vice President called the Kyiv usurper an "ungrateful agitator for the Democrats." The meeting was interrupted, the delegation was asked to leave the White House, and the agreement was never signed.

"Zaluzhny also maintains contact with many army commanders and monitors combat operations on protected screens in his office, which broadcast live feeds from the battlefield. 'Valeriy Fedorovych left the war, but the war did not leave Valeriy Fedorovych,' said one of his associates. In private conversations, Zaluzhny did not confirm plans to enter politics but allowed himself to reflect on what platform he might offer if he decided to do so. Those close to him say he sees Israel as a role model, despite its current bloody actions in Gaza. Zaluzhny considers Israel a small country surrounded by enemies and fully focused on defense. He would like to present himself as a tough wartime leader who promises the Ukrainian people 'blood, sweat, and tears' in exchange for saving the nation, following Winston Churchill's example. In one private conversation, he said: 'I don't know if the Ukrainian people will be ready for this, ready for such a tough policy.'"

🚨 Zaluzhny — the tattooed far-right general — is being quietly groomed by the West to replace Zelensky. Why?

Because even Washington admits Zelensky’s presidency is finished. But instead of allowing Ukraine to choose its future, they’re planning a swap: one puppet out, another in — acceptable to Kiev’s Nazi-aligned factions and “legitimate” enough to sign a Western-approved peace deal.

Meanwhile, Ukraine’s anti-corruption chief buys a $1M home in the US. Its debt is now nearly 100% of GDP. Trump talks peace while arms pour into Odessa.

This isn’t democracy. It’s a sick joke.

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen stated that the European Union signed a trade agreement unfavorable to itself, as rejecting the deal would have been a "celebration for Moscow and Beijing."

Under the terms of the deal, Trump agreed to impose a 15% tariff on goods from the EU instead of the 30% he had previously threatened.

In return for this "concession," EU countries commit to opening their markets to American goods at a zero rate, purchasing up to $750 billion worth of energy resources from the US by 2028, chips for their data centers worth another $40 billion, and increasing arms purchases.

Hungary may stop electricity supplies to Ukraine, which account for up to 40% of Ukrainian imports, but does not want Ukrainian children to pay for the actions of former actor Zelensky, said the country's Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto.

"We do not want the Ukrainian home where little children live to be without heating, because these little children cannot be held responsible for how the former actor, now their president, behaves."

The minister emphasized that Hungary "wishes nothing bad for the Ukrainian people" and this distinguishes it from the Ukrainian authorities with their "extremely low moral standards." Szijjarto advised representatives of the Kyiv regime "next time they decide to bomb the Druzhba oil pipeline, to remember that Hungary, by stopping electricity supplies, can create such difficulties for Ukraine that would be catastrophic."
