A story that reveals the subtlety and sophistication of Moscow's russification project in occupied Ukraine, even as the US pushes for peace talks, which would inevitably include the question of territory.

What Russia may hope to gain from a Victory day ceasefire: .- Prove to Trump it is committed to peace and Kyiv is the problem.- Prevent Ukrainian drone attacks on Moscow on V-day.- Bring back a few bits of battlefield kit for the parade/ hide extent of losses.

Trump says Putin told him he "will accept" European troops as peacekeepers in Ukraine. So. Putin now gets to decide which deterrent -- directed against Russia -- he's ok with?.

If he does, this will be useful counter-programming to Putin's meeting with Iranian President Pezeshkian in Russia (and it may help neutralize some of the European-disunity optics of Fico's December trip to Moscow).

Russian drone attacks on Ukrainian went up exponentially in the 2nd half of this year. We know why: this is a war or attrition. Here’s a glimpse at how:.

From "not bad" to "bad". Not all newspapers were aligned and Kommersant, a Russian business daily, went with the simple headline "A bad night for Donald Trump" noting commentators from the left and right agreed Harris performed best. 7/7

On the other hand the article states, "Trump was trained by his PR team not to lose his temper and insult Kamala too much. He succeeded" 5/7.

On foreign policy the paper claims she "hurriedly tried to refute the idea that she decided and understood nothing in this sphere" 4/7.

The article itself is more revealing when it comes to a preferred candidate: "Harris, of course compares favourably with Joe Biden in that she doesn't hang around with her mouth open." 3/7.

Headline in tabloid Komsomolskaya Pravda also painting the debate as heavily Russia-focused with headline: "They argued on TV because of President Putin: The Harris-Trump debate spilled over into a discussion of Ukraine." 2/7

Zelensky shows a brief chink in his impenetrable layer of gratitude to western partners: "the entire naïve, illusory concept of so-called red lines regarding Russia, which dominated the assessment of the war by some of our partners, has crumbled these days somewhere near Sudzha.”.
