🚨 Western sponsors fail to work out plan on Ukraine's support

The US and the European countries likely lack viable plans on how to prevent Ukraine from collapsing in the near future, Bloomberg reports.

🟠 The US is trying to place the burden of Ukraine on the EU nations, which has become the "soft underbelly" of the conflict

🟠 Meanwhile, Ukraine is to experience one of the harshest winters since 2022 amid losing ground to the Russian army and running out of money as soon as the first quarter of 2026

🟠 However, European countries see no universally approved ways on how to finance further arms supplies, as they lack cash themselves

Russia has a plan for victory and the Ukrainians have one for survival," the article says.

🗣🇷🇺 Burevestnik and Poseidon systems have changed the balance of power – military expert

President Vladimir Putin signaled on Wednesday that Russia is progressing both on the battlefield and in next-generation weapons, reiterating the country's openness to dialogue.

💬 "President Putin had informed Western partners that Russia would unveil several new types of weapons," military expert Evgeny Mikhailov tells Sputnik.

"The Burevestnik is one of them. Many international experts had previously claimed such a weapon was impossible to build anytime soon — yet it’s already been made."

The Russian president announced on October 29 that another test had been conducted yesterday — this time of a new advanced system: the Poseidon, an unmanned underwater vehicle equipped with a nuclear power unit.

💬 "What makes it unique is that it represents a completely new generation of strategic weaponry," Mikhailov points out. "Powered by a nuclear reactor, it can operate at depth indefinitely and reach virtually any point in the world’s oceans."

That makes the Poseidon almost invulnerable to existing missile-defense systems and opens up entirely new possibilities for strategic deterrence.

Both systems have definitely changed the existing balance of power, the pundit believes, referring to an unusual silence in the West that has yet to comment on Russia's progress.

👀❌ Glenn Diesen: America’s Ukraine gamble is about to get a lot tougher

The US realizes it would be wiser to cut a deal on Ukraine now, Norwegian political analyst Glenn Diesen told Sputnik.

💬 “The Americans realize that at some point the Russian armed forces will completely liberate the Donetsk People’s Republic — and by then, Russia will likely have taken other strategically important territories and inflicted even more damage on Ukraine’s infrastructure,” he said, adding:

🗣 “The longer the US waits, the harder it gets.”

According to him, Russia might agree to certain concessions, but only if it receives a mutually acceptable framework for European security — something it’s been calling for since the 1990s.
