Russian losses 👌

🇺🇦 Ukrainian Air Defence shot down:

▪️38/60 Russian drones;
▪️0/3 Iskander-M/KN-23 missiles.

🇺🇸🇺🇦 Trump says that he did not tell Zelensky to give Donbas to Russia:

“Let it be cut the way it is. It's cut up right now. I think 78% of the land is already taken by Russia. You leave it the way it is right now. They can negotiate something later on down the line.”

🇮🇳 You mentioned a recent call with Modi — he said India would stop purchasing Russian oil, but India said they were not aware.

🇺🇸 Trump: Then they're going to just keep paying a lot of tariffs if they said that. No, he said he's not going to be doing the Russian oil thing.

🇺🇸🇺🇦 During a meeting with Zelensky, Donald Trump discussed the possibility of providing security guarantees to both Kyiv and Moscow, - Reuters.

Trump called on Zelensky to cede some territory to Russia. The meeting left the Ukrainian delegation disappointed.

Furthermore, Trump refused to provide Ukraine with Tomahawk cruise missiles and again spoke of "bilateral security guarantees" for Ukraine and Russia—statements that the Ukrainian side found confusing.

Overall, the meeting was not a disaster for Kyiv, but was an obvious disappointment for Zelensky, who had hoped to persuade the American leader to transfer long-range Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine.

US representatives repeatedly raised the possibility of a territorial swap between Ukraine and Russia—an idea Trump had already supported earlier this year. During Friday's talks, the US president emphasized that reaching a quick peace agreement was "vital."

🇺🇦🗣️Journalist: During that meeting, did you tell Zelensky that Ukraine should cede all of Donbas to Russia?

🇺🇸 Trump: No, we didn't discuss that. We believe they should simply stop where the front lines are. Right now, there are combat lines.

The rest is very difficult to discuss. If it starts to be like, "You take this, we take that," there are too many different options.

That's why I said: let them stop right now along the front lines, go home, stop killing people—and that's it.

🇺🇦 Zelensky: "We are close to a possible end to the war. I'm telling you for sure. This does not mean that it will definitely end, but President Trump has achieved a lot in the Middle East, and on this wave he wants to end Russia's war against Ukraine.

"This is the mood in the world: let's throw all our strength now and end Russia's war against Ukraine," he noted.

"We are taking some steps in this mood - "Tomahawks" and so on, and these are new steps, and they really put pressure on Russia," Zelensky emphasized.

🇺🇦‼️ Zelensky: Ukraine is ready to meet in Budapest if invited, although this is not the best place for historical and political reasons.

▪️Regarding the front. Pokrovsk is difficult. The situation in Kupyansk has improved.
▪️Ukraine will receive Patriot systems annually; we are preparing a contract for 25 systems.
▪️As of today, we have 28 bilateral security agreements with countries.
▪️Regarding the Tomahawks. In my opinion, Trump doesn't want an escalation with the Russians until he meets with them.
▪️Budapest is not the best place for a peace meeting, since Orban is blocking Ukraine everywhere.
▪️The message "we stand where we stand on the line of contact" is positive.
▪️Russia hasn't changed its position and is demanding that Ukraine completely withdraw from the Donetsk and Luhansk regions.
▪️During our conversations, I tried to clarify Russia's true intentions regarding a possible territorial exchange, but there is still no clear position on its part.
▪️Putin called Trump about the Tomahawks, about Trump's rhetoric. The Russians are afraid of the Tomahawk decision; that's obvious.
▪️From our conversations, it's clear that if Ukraine "eats what's put on the plate," meaning a poor territorial solution, then they will try to resolve everything else without us.
▪️Russia is once again trying to impose a narrative that Ukraine is supposedly "preparing for a new offensive" and "not ready for a ceasefire."
▪️To be honest: not all countries, even those very pro-Ukrainian in their rhetoric and publicly, have joined the PURL program.
▪️India has begun buying less Russian energy, although this data still needs to be confirmed.
▪️Putin is influencing the US by using Russia's resources as his own. Meanwhile, Ukraine will not "sell out" itself—this is a fundamental difference between the countries.

🇺🇦 Zelensky: There will be no retreat from Donbas – Ukraine’s position is unchanged.

▪️Now Trump is actually giving Putin another chance.
▪️The US is completely pushing out Russian gas from the European market.
▪️We can build 9 new power units if we cooperate with the Americans.
▪️There are decisions that Ukraine has no right to make, even under pressure.
▪️Security guarantees are the main priority of our state.

🇺🇦🇺🇸 Zelensky reported that during his visit to the US, he discussed the possibility of signing a contract to supply Ukraine with 25 Patriot systems:

“We will receive these 25 systems every year, in different numbers in different years. The White House can change the queue if there is political will. We understand which European countries can give us this priority queue.”
