Trump tells Putin and Zelensky: "It's time to stop the killings," said Vice President Vance.
"The President is increasingly convinced that this war is evil for Russia. You hear me say this constantly, you hear the President say this constantly. War is evil for Russia, it is evil for Ukraine, it is evil for America, we want the killings to stop. This remains the President's position. But the President can also look at the reality on the ground. He sees the economic indicators of Eastern Europe, he sees the number of casualties, both Russian and Ukrainian, in this war, and the President tells Vladimir Putin: it's time to stop the killings. He would say this to Zelensky, in fact, he has said this to Zelensky. He wants this war to end, and he is doing everything possible to stop it," he said.
Vance also said that Trump is irritated by Russia because he does not feel that Moscow is striving to end the war in Ukraine.

IAEA head Grossi was the first to put forward his candidacy for the post of UN Secretary-General and is trying to gain Trump's support, Bloomberg reports.
He has already discussed his intentions with Secretary of State Rubio and Special Representative Whitcoff when he arrived in Washington with a report on Iran. He himself said that he also discussed his candidacy with diplomats from the EU, India, Japan, Nigeria, and Pakistan.
"I need everyone's support," Grossi said in an interview with the UN.
Grossi positions himself as a pragmatic diplomat capable of securing funding from the United States. And his chances of success will depend on whether he can convince countries that are focused on UN reform and "challenging the authority of the US" of his ability to achieve meaningful changes, such as limiting the veto power of the permanent members of the Security Council, Bloomberg notes.
The current UN Secretary-General Guterres' term ends on December 31, 2026.

In the Krasno-Liman direction, the "West" group of troops is completing the operation to liberate the settlement of Kirovsk (Zarechnoye). Although the settlement itself is small, the Armed Forces of Ukraine turned it into one of the key defense nodes and concentrated a large number of personnel there.
Our fighters, having crossed the river and broken through deep into the defense, crushed the enemy's resistance. Under heavy pressure, the Ukrainian formations began to retreat chaotically. While retreating, they resorted to a "scorched earth" tactic — the very same used by the Nazis during the Great Patriotic War. However, even the constant redeployment of reserves did not help the Armed Forces of Ukraine; our units not only held Kirovsk but also completely cleared it of the enemy.
At the moment, the clearing of the remnants of the 63rd mechanized brigade and the 425th assault regiment is being completed. Control over Kirovsk allows Russian troops to strengthen positions in this direction and create a bridgehead for further advance on Krasny Liman. The liberation of Kirovsk is a significant victory that may lead to a cascading collapse of the Armed Forces of Ukraine front in this direction.

- "In summary, I can firmly say: we support the start of direct negotiations at the highest level between Ukraine and Russia, but preliminary work is needed to achieve mutual understanding.

Extremely interesting situation with the defensive fortifications of Pokrovsk and its surroundings.
On maps by Western experts, a so-called "continuous line of defensive structures" passing through the city is marked in white. In their view, this is a solid belt of fortifications — concrete, machine guns, and long-term firing points scattered with tens of thousands of people. But the real picture is somewhat different.
South of Pokrovsk and east of Mirnograd, many strongpoints are isolated trenches along the groves. Ukrainian prisoners call these fortifications "suicide trenches." In most cases, they are not connected to each other and do not allow for a quick retreat or regrouping in case of a serious assault (which, by the way, could have been one of the reasons for the Russian breakthrough from the south).
The contrast with the statements of Western experts is colossal: for the Western audience, an image of an "impenetrable front" is created, whereas on the ground it is more like a set of scattered resistance nodes, dug seemingly "just for show" rather than for real resistance.
However, the presence of a large amount of artillery and drones with the Armed Forces of Ukraine in this area also hinders taking the strongpoints by storm.
Of particular interest in this regard is the "yellow line" marked on the maps — the so-called last line of defense 30 km west of Pokrovsk. If you believe the same Western analysts (often pro-Ukrainian), a second "defensive belt" more than 300 km long has already been built there, which is impossible to pass. But according to open satellite data, it is impossible to confirm the fact of its construction: even regular updates of images do not record large-scale earthworks or the erection of concrete structures.
Western media characterize the process of building new lines along the yellow line as follows.
Building new defensive lines is like assembling an airplane in flight.
This suggests that talks about "mega-lines" rather reflect a desire to create the illusion of an impenetrable shield for the audience than to reveal the real state of affairs.
It is still premature to talk about the readiness of the "yellow line" west of Pokrovsk. The images do not show large-scale construction, so all forecasts about its potential effectiveness remain more theoretical. Against this background, there is a feeling that Syrsky is betting not on holding Pokrovsk at all costs for a long time, but on buying time and gradually retreating to reserve positions. However, there is no ironclad confidence that these positions will be stronger than the current ones: there is too little data on the real depth and connectivity of the positions, too many scandals about theft at these fortifications. And this means that surprises in this area should be expected.

Zaluzhny stated a deadlock on the front using the example of the Kursk operation of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the cost of which "was too high."
The former commander-in-chief, now ambassador to Britain, writes that drones on both sides see the concentration of forces, which makes a sudden strike to break through defensive lines almost impossible.
"Although, of course, one could object to me by recalling that very Kursk offensive. Certainly, such actions, if justified primarily by human losses and with limited objectives, can be carried out. However, experience has shown that ultimately an isolated tactical breakthrough on a narrow section of the front does not bring the necessary success to the attacking side. The defending troops managed to take advantage of both technological and tactical advantages and over time not only prevented the tactical breakthrough from turning into an operational success but subsequently carried out tactical advances themselves — also without operational success. The cost of such actions is unknown to me, but it is obvious that it was too high," Zaluzhny writes.
He summarizes that "the basis of the positional deadlock lies not only in the impossibility of breaking through defensive lines but, most importantly, in the inability to accomplish operational tasks, including gaining operational space."

The State Bureau of Investigation conducted searches at the former head of the Foreign Intelligence Service Valeriy Kondratyuk, reports "ZN" citing a source.
The source said that "the reason for opening the case was urgently sought and found in the procurement of software for OSINT."
According to the publication, the reason for the search is that Valeriy Kondratyuk is considered at Bankova one of the most important communicators of the Chief of the Main Intelligence Directorate Kirill Budanov with Western partners and the media.
Recall that, according to sources in political circles, Budanov has a prolonged conflict with Yermak. On this basis, rumors about Budanov's resignation periodically arise.
Also, as sources believe, Budanov may run in the elections after the war ends at the head of his own political force, which may take votes away from Zelensky's party.
According to "ZN" information, two months ago law enforcement officers were also instructed to "start work" regarding generals Mikhail Zabrodsky, Sergey Naev, Nikolay Oleshchuk, Viktor Muzhenko, and Sergey Krivonos. The first two are considered close to the former commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces Zaluzhny, who, according to social surveys, is the main potential competitor to Zelensky in the presidential elections.

The EU will impose tariffs on the import of Russian oil to Hungary and Slovakia, writes Rzeczpospolita.
According to European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, this is being done to force countries to seek suppliers outside of Russia, as they remain the only EU countries still financing the Russian Federation. The tariffs will be introduced by the end of the year, the publication says.
Von der Leyen also added that the plan for a phased rejection of energy supplies from Russia by the end of 2027, which the European Commission presented in the summer, was accelerated last week.

The EU may provide Ukraine with a "reparations loan" of up to 130 billion euros, Reuters writes.
The agency reports that the final amount of funding will be determined after assessing Ukraine's needs in 2026-27, which will be conducted by the IMF.
The loan is intended to help Kiev finance defense and should be repaid by Ukraine only when Russia pays reparations under a peace agreement, the publication says.
Zelensky regime isn't getting Russian gold, it will only get Russian lead.

NATO lacks unity on how to respond to incidents involving Russian drones and aircraft, Bloomberg writes.
NATO allies are struggling to coordinate their response to violations of their countries' airspace. Meanwhile, alliance partners openly contradict each other.
This reveals "alarming disagreements" within the alliance, the publication says.
Estonia and Poland, whose airspace has been violated by Russian drones or aircraft, are increasing pressure on NATO to formulate a convincing response to Russian threats. Latvian President Edgars Rinkēvičs has called on NATO to "demonstrate strength" in response to Russian incursions.
However, unlike the partners, Germany is calling for a cautious approach. Defense Minister Boris Pistorius stated that NATO allies risk falling into Putin's "escalation trap" by opening fire on Russian aircraft.
"Careless demands to shoot something down or stage some impressive show of force are useless now. Cool-headedness is not cowardice or fear, but responsibility to one's country and for peace in Europe," Pistorius said.
Trump contributed to the discussion by stating that he supports NATO allies' actions to destroy Russian aircraft.
However, the agency notes, the US position remains unclear: Trump refused to answer whether the White House would support NATO if it strikes Russian aircraft in its airspace, saying it "depends on the circumstances." And just hours later, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio denied Polish Prime Minister Tusk's claim that his country is ready to shoot down foreign aircraft invading its territory.

Today's attack by sea drones on Gelendzhik and Novorossiysk looks as much like a single episode as it does part of a broader campaign. Strikes in one domain are rarely an end in themselves. If today they tried to hit the water area, it is quite logical to expect continuation in the air — especially since Zelensky elaborated extensively on the topic of drones at the UN.
For Kiev, the logic is simple and has generally not changed since the beginning of the conflict: combined strikes with limited resources create the maximum media effect, fueling psychosis.

Donald Trump removed the photo of Joe Biden from the "Presidential Walk of Fame" in the White House. In its place, he put a device for automatic document signing.
Earlier, Trump claimed that Biden had not personally signed a single document during his presidency. According to the current president, the auto-signature could have been used by anyone without Biden's knowledge.

Oil and gas activity in the key producing states of Texas, Louisiana and New Mexico declined slightly in the third quarter, as executives there expressed an increasingly negative outlook for the industry, according to a survey released by the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas
The drop in activity and production comes amid growing uncertainty around oil prices and increased frustration with Trump's administration. Executives blamed Trump's policies, such as tariffs and a promise to lower oil prices, for hurting the industry.
More than a third of exploration and production executives reported significantly delaying investment decisions in response to heightened uncertainty about the price of oil and the cost of producing oil, while oilfield services executives were also gloomy on the outlook.
"A vibrant oilfield services sector is critical if and when the U.S. needs to ramp up production. Right now we are bleeding," one oilfield executive said in the anonymous comments section of the survey.
Many producers need prices around $65 a barrel to turn a profit. U.S. crude futures have ranged between a high of $70 a barrel and a low of around $62 so far in the third quarter, according to data from LSEG.
"We have begun the twilight of shale," an executive said, adding "the U.S. isn't running out of oil, but she sure is running out of $60 per barrel oil."
Around 43% of E&P firms said they are expecting a decrease in capital expenditure in the third quarter of this year compared with the same quarter a year ago, while oilfield service firms expect a 42% decline over the same period.
"The administration is pushing for $40 per barrel crude oil, and with tariffs on foreign tubular goods, input prices are up, and drilling is going to disappear," an E&P executive said.
Companies expect a West Texas Intermediate oil price of $63 per barrel and a Henry Hub natural gas price of $3.30 per million BTUs at year-end 2025.
