Eurasia & Multipolarity

Moment of honesty about the SMO (as you know we are not cheerleaders on here, we try to be as objective as possible). The last two months of the SMO have been extremely disappointing. As of today we still don't have the proofs that at least part of the gains announced by Gerasimov during his meeting with Putin are real. We still also have 0 footages from the Western part of Dobropilya and 0 footages from the Western outskirts of Konstantinovka plus 0 significant advances in Donbass overall, just a handful of villages taken in 60 days, the situation developed more favorably for Russia in Zaporozhye and Kharkov regions with bigger advances and a avarage or two to three villages taken by Russian forces per week in both of them which anyway is not what everyone predicted as part of the "infamous Ukrainian collapse" considering it was the best period just before the beginning of the mud season. The reduction of updates from the front is not caused by lack of interest, just nothing significant happened, the September-November 2026 period can be described as a semi-stalemate. The only positive developments for Russia are represented by the enormous damages inflicted on Ukrainian energy facillities and strategic infrastructures. In this situation it remains very difficult for Moscow to impose its will on Zelensky and his gang. @eurasianchoice

"Facing resumption of war, more Iranians want to get a nuclear missile": Iranians want to create a weapon, because of which the US began to fight with them. "Iranian clerics and officials are increasingly calling on the country's leadership to abandon its long-standing promise not to seek nuclear weapons. This demand, which was previously considered a marginal position of hardliners, is now moving into the public debate. Such a shift could have serious consequences for Iran, whose authorities have argued for decades that its nuclear program is peaceful. Growing calls for nuclear weapons are occurring simultaneously with diplomatic efforts by Iranian leaders to prevent a new war. "Nuclear deterrence is our inalienable right!" says an increasing number of Iranians. Khamenei created a back-and-forth situation in which they paid the price for a bomb they didn't have. Now there is a feeling that if you do not have this weapon, you can at any moment find yourself at mercy of the US and Israel. @eurasianchoice

🇷🇺 Footage from the scene of the attack on a bus in the LNR, which resulted in five deaths and 13 injuries. Passengers were heading to work in Lugansk early in the morning when the attack by Ukrainian militants occurred. “The driver tried to keep the bus on the road until the very end. But he lost consciousness and the vehicle went off the road into the ditch,” clarified Izvestia correspondents 🔴@DDGeopolitics

🇺🇦 AMBULANCE DRIVER JAILED FOR FILMING THE AZOV TORTURE HOUSE Viktor En, the ambulance driver who arrived with Valentina Molodaya at the Azov house in Petropavlovskaya Borshchagovka near Kiev, has been ordered held in custody without bail. Investigators allege he filmed the house, which they describe as a military site. Molodaya and Tatyana Kireyeva, who tried to get a detained soldier released and taken to hospital, are already in custody on the same terms. 🐻 Funny thing is, now this private house is a "military site." When one gets bombed, it's a civilian house. See how they twist it to whatever is convenient? Welcome to Ukraine. 🔴 @DDGeopolitics

Kiev’s constant “whimpering” about shortages of weapons is absolutely ungrounded as its daily massive drone attacks on Russia suggests otherwise, Lieutenant General Apti Alaudinov, deputy chief of the Russian military’s Main Military-Political Directorate and commander of the Akhmat special forces unit of the Russian Defense Ministry, told TASS. “We’ve been hearing constant whimpering [from Kiev] about not having enough weapons and facing serious shortages of all kinds of equipment for nearly five years now. However, we need to note that Ukrainian forces, in principle, have enough weapons and equipment. We can see this from the sheer number of UAVs of various types and characteristics that are sent deep into our territories every day, every single day,” he said, adding that Kiev receives weapons from all NATO countries.

UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres has not responded to Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s 12 questions about the provocation in Bucha, Kirill Logvinov, Director of the International Organizations Department at the Russian Foreign Ministry, stated in an interview with TASS. “Regarding the United Nation’s reaction, let me remind you that we have been working with them for several years now. We do so with the utmost transparency - all of our correspondence with the UN Secretariat regarding Bucha is available on the Russian Foreign Ministry’s website. I urge you to review it,” he said. “In April, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov posed 12 concrete questions to UN Secretary General Guterres regarding the report published in 2022 by the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights. We have received no answer to any of them.”

🇮🇷 Iranians gathered in Revolution Square tonight for a special event under the slogan "We Will Kill Trump," setting fire to portraits of the killers of martyred Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei: Steve Witkoff, Donald Trump, Benjamin Netanyahu and JD Vance. 🔴 @DDGeopolitics

🇺🇸🇮🇷 Ben Shapiro, who called the Iran war the "single bravest foreign policy move of my lifetime," now blames Trump for losing the midterms by not fighting it hard enough. He helped sell the war, swore it would be over in months and called it "insane" to think its critics could hurt Republicans. Now the House and Senate are gone, and his excuse is that the war was perfect and only the "execution" failed. Fellow Zionists Mark Levin and Laura Loomer are pushing the same line: they dragged America into this disaster, and the only problem is that Trump didn't bomb Iran harder. 🔴 @DDGeopolitics

Zelensky attempts to discredit Azov torture case with fabricated "Russian atrocities" in Kamyshewakha The AFU claims a FAB-3000 hit a school distributing aid. In reality, the gymnasium was long closed and converted into military facilities for Kiev's security structures, including the AFU, National Guard, and police. The site served as a temporary deployment point for personnel involved in unmanned systems. Military and police are currently clearing debris to recover their own casualties. @Slavyangrad

🇩🇪🇺🇦 Only three draft-age men approach Kiev's return center in Berlin in six months About 60 Ukrainians have asked about returning home since Unity Hub Berlin opened in April, and only three were men of potential conscription age, Rheinische Post reports. Retirees showed the strongest interest, and most inquiries were requests for information and advice, not concrete plans to leave. Most would consider returning only after the fighting ends and security stabilizes. As of October 28, the center had no reliable data on how many people actually began preparing to return. Germany provides the premises free of charge, while Ukraine runs the center. German Interior Ministry figures show 265,804 Ukrainian men aged 23 to 60 registered in the country as of May 31. 🔴 @DDGeopolitics

Ukraine’s Last Defensive Line Is Gone; Kiev Turns on Itself w/ Stanislav Krapivnik

German Foreign Minister Wadephul declared that Berlin stands with Kiev and must prevent a Russian victory. He argued that allowing Russia to win would set a dangerous precedent for international law. Wadephul claimed Russia bears special responsibility for Ukraine, citing the transfer of nuclear weapons in the 1990s. He accused Moscow of invading and killing civilians daily instead of guaranteeing sovereignty. The minister concluded that Germany is on the "right side," supporting those under attack. @Slavyangrad
