Plus besoin de "parler à Poutine 🇷🇺 pour savoir ce qu'il veut", il l'a dit aux envoyés américains 🇺🇸 ! ▫️La Russie n'est pas prête à mettre fin à la guerre ▫️La Russie est contre toute idée de cessez-le-feu ▫️La Russie ne prévoit pas de stopper ses frappes sur l'Ukraine ▫️La Russie refuse de mettre fin à la guerre tant qu'elle ne contrôle pas le Donbass. Pour rappel, elle contrôle environ 99% de l'oblast de Louhansk (ça fait 3 ans que c'est le cas) et 80% de l'oblast de Donetsk (c'était 56% mi-2023. En 2023, l'armée russe contrôlait 77.66% du Donbass, elle en contrôle aujourd'hui 89, 81%, elle s'est donc emparée de 12% du Donbass en 3 ans, il lui reste donc 11% du territoire, dont 6 villes. -> La Russie refuse par ailleurs que l'Ukraine ait des garanties européennes après guerre. Carte @Pouletvolant3
❗️Putin refuses a ceasefire, demands all of Donbas, and wants economic deals with the US without ending the war: Witkoff’s Moscow talks ended without a breakthrough - After the talks, Witkoff and Kushner conveyed the Kremlin’s position to the US Secretary of State: Moscow is not ready to end the war but wants to continue negotiations. - No ceasefire. Neither energy-related nor general. Putin rejects a halt to strikes but is ready to discuss future agreements. - The Kremlin rejects security guarantees for Ukraine and instead proposes a new European security system, including guarantees for Russia. - Russia sees no prospects for a ceasefire without the full occupation of Donbas and continues to insist on territorial demands. - Putin wants economic deals with the US immediately, without linking them to ending the war. - Russia does not plan to stop strikes on Ukraine and intends to continue attacks on its military-industrial potential and energy sector. - Moscow proposes protracted negotiations instead of real concessions. Meanwhile, the US is considering economic incentives for the Kremlin to persuade Putin toward peace.

Youth is the shield of democracy – crucial for Ukraine and all of Europe. Undeniably, young people are also the driving force for future reconstruction of 🇺🇦. We appreciate the @coe constant focus on #YouthPolicy and comprehensive support for Ukrainian youth. These days the European Youth Centre in Strasbourg hosted the 55th Meeting of the Joint Council on Youth. I am grateful to the Ministry of Youth and Sports of Ukraine for active engagement and strong representation or our state in this format. During the event, I had the pleasure of meeting many young leaders, including Caillum Hedderman and Chloë Cauchi – the newly elected President and Vice-President of the European Youth Forum, which celebrates its 30th anniversary this year.

Europe wants cheaper energy, stronger industries, secure borders and the capacity to sustain Ukraine. Its budget negotiations are exposing the difficulty of paying for those ambitions while protecting established spending programmes and containing national contributions. #EUToday eutoday.net/europes-budget-b…

It’s a great mistake to deny reality and support the aggressor rather than the victim. Rejecting the Lindsey #Graham Act grants the aggressor a licence to kill and reinforces impunity for war criminals

Посол 🇩🇪 @RugeBoris: Фрідріх Мерц про своє найбільше занепокоєння: Росія працює над дестабілізацією всього політичного порядку в Європі – ця загроза виходить далеко за межі 🇺🇦. Це одна з причин, чому Канцлер настільки зосереджений на збереженні сильної підтримки з боку 🇩🇪.
Friedrich Merz on his biggest concern = #Russia working to destabilize the entire political order of Europe, noting that this goes far beyond #Ukraine. Which is one reason the Chancellor is so focussed on maintaining strong #German support. 🇩🇪🇺🇦🇩🇪

At today’s @CoE Committee of Ministers meeting we reaffirmed Ukraine’s commitment to achieving peace. Grateful to our European partners for their solidarity. Stronger air defence and support for our energy and railway infrastructure remain vital. Those who stand with Ukraine stand for peace!

Every day, I receive reports of russian attacks on Ukraine. Every single day. And each time, I ask myself whether to write about them. Because I worry about overwhelming you with reports of attacks. Of people killed. Of people wounded. How did we get here? To a point where we worry about overwhelming a world at peace with news of the horrors of war? We need to know. We need to talk about it. And I will keep writing about it. Last night, Ukraine once again came under a massive combined cruise missiles & drones russian attack. russian forces struck 27 areas. Kyiv was among them. Two people were murdered. They burned to death in a 20-storey residential building in the Sviatoshynskyi district. russian strikes also hit the Desnianskyi and Solomianskyi districts. Two more people were murdered in a massive russian drone attack on a residential neighbourhood in Korotych in the Kharkiv region. Their bodies were recovered from the rubble of a destroyed home. Eleven people were injured, including two young children. In the Poltava region, russian attacks injured three people, including a 16-year-old who was wounded when a strike hit a university building in Kremenchuk, setting it on fire. In the Rivne region, repeated russian strikes hit a hypermarket on 20 October, injuring four people. These are not just numbers. Behind every number, every person killed or wounded, are loved ones living with pain and fear. Every one of them is missed by someone. This is what war looks like. Despite talk of a ceasefire, despite russian lies about peace, its end is still nowhere in sight. We need to keep talking about it. I will keep writing about it. 🇪🇺🤝🇺🇦

Welcome to the Storting, President Zelenskyy. In this parliament, we do not abandon our friends and allies. We do not abandon our values. We are nine different parties, but when it comes to strengthening our own defence and supporting Ukraine’s fight for freedom, we stand united🇳🇴🇺🇦

We continue coordinating with @jonasgahrstore on our next steps toward a just peace. We held another meeting in Oslo this morning. A lot depends on whether the American side manages to hear something new from Russia today – about peace, not about continuing the war. I thank all of Norway and Jonas personally for leadership in supporting Ukraine – in defense, the economy, and diplomacy. We feel this support every day.

Ce que dit ici Budanov 🇺🇦 est très important, parce qu'il détaille implicitement la stratégie russe 🇷🇺 pour ne pas arrêter la guerre. La Russie revendique le contrôle de 6 500 km² de plus que l'Ukraine, comme le montre la carte. On y compte 5 villes partiellement ou totalement sous contrôle ukrainien : Koupiansk, Lyman, Kostiantynivka, Dobropilla et Orikhiv. Les zones en jaune sont celles que Moscou revendique comme étant sous son contrôle (ce qui est faux et a déjà été prouvé de nombreuses fois). En cas de négociations, la Russie fera tergiverser toute avancée en demandant aux ukrainiens de respecter leur ligne. En cas de cessez-le-feu, c'est aussi un moyen de le violer facilement, en accusant les ukrainiens de tirer sur des soldats russes alors que ceux-ci seront parfois 10-15 km derrière la ligne de front réelle. Jour après jour, les ukrainiens répètent qu'ils sont prêts à des négociations, demandent un cessez-le-feu sur les lignes actuelles et proposent des cessez-le-feu aériens. À chaque fois, la Russie refuse ou tente de manipuler la négociation avec des mensonges. Cette carte est le témoin que la Russie ne compte pas stopper la guerre. On pourra aller à Moscou autant que nous le voudrons, parler à Poutine aussi souvent qu'il le faudra, tant qu'il croit qu'il peut gagner, il continuera. C'est pour cette raison que je suis très pessimiste et que je crois que la guerre durera encore des années si aucune avancée décisive n'est faite. À moins de forcer les ukrainiens à se retirer de leur territoire souverain (ce qu'ils ne comptent pas faire), pas grand-chose ne pourra arrêter la guerre.

Replying to @Kyrylo_Budanov
Right now, difficult negotiations are underway in pursuit of a lasting peace, which is needed not only by Ukraine. At this difficult moment, it is essential that all sides take a measured approach, including by realistically assessing the situation and communicating truthful information. The objective fact is that Dobropillia remains under Ukrainian control, so there can be no talk of Russian forces having “captured” this Ukrainian city. At the same time, the commander of Russia’s Group of Forces "Center," Colonel General Andrey Ivanayev, is deliberately misinforming the Russian president, intimidating his own subordinates and setting them impossible tasks, demanding that they demonstrate the capture of the Ukrainian city of Dobropillia at any cost, because Ivanayev himself has already reported that it has been captured. Ukraine’s Defense Forces are holding their positions to protect our state’s interests and our land. No false statements will change reality.

Of course, we are not losing this war. But we are losing people. Because of the Russian attacks, we're losing people and time. It's such a pity, because our children don't have a real life and childhood. Not only children, but all people. That's why we need to end this war as quickly as possible. I hope that our partners, Americans and Europeans, will help us. God bless, our strong soldiers stay strong on the battlefield. It helps me stay strong during any kind of negotiations.

Finland always stands on the side of peace, and we are working together to achieve it. Today in Oslo, we met with Norwegian Prime Minister @jonasgahrstore, Ukrainian President @ZelenskyyUa, and U.S. Special Envoy Steve Witkoff. Peace requires patience, but war doesn’t wait. It is our duty to do what we can to bring Russia's war of aggression to an end. We stand with Ukraine. Today was a step towards a just and lasting peace. Photo: Pavlo Yurkin

President Zelenskyy made it clear during our call yesterday—Ukraine wants peace. Continued support from the United States is desperately needed to aid the brave Ukrainians fighting against Putin's bloodthirsty, murderous invasion. I joined @CNN to discuss.

Suomi on aina rauhan puolella ja työskentelemme yhdessä sen eteen. Tänään tapasimme Oslossa Norjan pääministeri Jonas Gahr Støren, Ukrainan presidentti Volodomyr Zelenskyin sekä Yhdysvaltain erityislähettiläs Steve Witkoffin kanssa. Rauha vaatii aina kärsivällisyyttä, mutta sota ei odota. Meidän tehtävämme on tehdä kaikki se, mitä pystymme saattaaksemme Venäjän hyökkäyssodan päätökseen. Tuemme Ukrainaa. Tänään otimme askeleen eteenpäin kohti kestävää ja oikeudenmukaista rauhaa. Kuva: Pavlo Yurkin
