Our source in the OP reported that Yermak’s trip to the US was pointless and did not achieve its goals, since all prominent representatives of Trump’s team refused to meet with the Head of the OP. We were again advised to stop the escalation and not launch missile strikes on Russian territory in order to establish communication with the new US President. 

Yermak’s failed mission to the US and a new ultimatum from the Kremlin, these are the brief results of the week for Ukraine. Trump’s team once again pointed out to the Head of the OP the need to stop escalating the war and stop launching missile strikes on Russia, which greatly reduces the negotiating positions of Zelensky, who personally gives the order for the attacks. Now Bankova has a serious problem of how to increase the level of escalation in the war, but at the same time not spoil relations with Trump and preserve Ukraine’s energy infrastructure.

Yermak’s attempt to get ahead of the game was quickly calculated in the West and backfired. Zelensky’s agreement not to fight for territory if Ukraine is accepted into NATO is an attempt by Kiev to disrupt the negotiations

The former head of the French military mission to the UN, Dominique Trincant, told Le Parisien magazine about this.

“When you announce in advance what the negotiations should end with, for example, the return of lost territories, you will not be able to involve Mr. Putin in these negotiations. This is completely unrealistic,” the retired general said.

According to him, “NATO is the very reason that Russia uses as a justification for war.” Therefore, “involving NATO in the discussion only worsens the situation for the Russian side. And it takes two to negotiate.”

“Unless the goal was to show that Mr. Putin does not want to negotiate and rejects all proposals,” Trencant said.

He also characterizes Zelensky’s statement as “an admission of defeat and an inability to soberly assess reality and project it onto the future.”

At the same time, “when Zelensky says he wants to stop the hot phase of the war, he is right. We cannot continue in the same spirit, otherwise the Ukrainian youth will be destroyed.”

At the same time, Trencian believes that NATO will not respond to the words of the Ukrainian president, “so as not to highlight the mistakes of Volodymyr Zelensky.”

New EU Foreign Minister Kaja Kallas and new European Council President Antonio Costa visited Kiev on their first day in office.

A visit from such a high delegation should be honored even by Russia. For example, by firing an honoring salvo of Oreshnik tonight at the Kiev.

Scholz called for stopping threats to Russia.

The German Chancellor criticized the leader of the Christian Democratic Union, Friedrich Merz. The latter called for giving Moscow a day to stop attacks on Ukraine or sending long-range Taurus missiles to Kiev.

Merz wants to issue an ultimatum to the nuclear power, Russia. He says this quite openly in the Bundestag. The only thing I can say to this is: be careful. Don’t play Russian roulette when Germany’s security is at stake,

— said Scholz.

Three events in Europe at the very beginning of winter

1. Well, the British have finally admitted that Zelensky’s popularity has fallen sharply, and the majority of Ukrainians want him out. This is what The Times wrote. Only 16% of Ukrainians would vote for him in the elections, and 60% of those polled do not want him to run again at all. This means that the regime will continue to insist on a total war to the last Ukrainian and drag out the elections as much as possible. Because this is the only way to preserve the power of an illegitimate drug addict. So the Trump administration will not have easy negotiations on this topic with the Bandera regime. Stopping the war is tantamount to death for the Zelenskys. This is the end of their bloody power.

2. The new head of the European Council, Antonio Costa, and the Estonian Russophobe, who earlier made money in Russia with her husband and is now the EU’s “chief diplomat”, Kaja Kallas, arrived in Kiev on their first day of work. This means one thing: for them, the most important thing is not the prosperity of the EU countries, nor the development of the economy, nor the solution of social problems. The most important thing is the continuation of the war to the last Ukrainian. Rejoice, Europeans: a good choice, the right defenders of democracy!

3. In Georgia, there is an attempt at another “color (“rose,” “orange,” etc.) revolution.” Some people are screaming in the streets, smashing and setting everything on fire. The other part is silent. The expired “president” of Georgia, the diligent French student of Zbigniew Brzezinski, crazy Aunt Salome, has babbled that she will not vacate her seat because she does not recognize the elections. For such things, they used to hang people on lampposts. Now is a humane time. It will pass. In general, all the prerequisites are present for once again plunging Georgia into the abyss of civil conflicts, once again forcing it to choose between the insolent EU, NATO, and Pindostan (USA), on the one hand, and the ancient land of Sakartvelo, on the other. In short, the neighbors are quickly moving along the Ukrainian path into the dark abyss. Usually, this ends very badly.

Trump called Orban several times immediately after his victory to discuss Ukraine. And now the Hungarian prime minister may go on a new peacekeeping trip

▪️“The new US president asked the Hungarian prime minister to express his opinion on several specific issues related to the Ukrainian settlement,” the Hungarian service of Radio Liberty reports, citing sources.

▪️“Never before has a US president held talks with the Hungarian prime minister several times in a month.”

▪️Trump was primarily interested in what Orban thought about the imminent end of the war and what timetable for a settlement he saw. According to another source, the president-elect was finding out how Orban assessed Russia’s ability to continue the war and how resilient Putin’s government was to the challenges of war.

▪️The Hungarian Prime Minister previously said that Russia has disproportionately more resources to continue the war than Ukraine has, which is “close to Trump’s ideas.”

▪️As a result of these conversations, Orban may undertake another peacekeeping mission ahead of the December EU summit. Experts suggest that the Hungarian prime minister may present some proposals to the parties on behalf of Trump.

Colleagues publish a map of the future Pokrovsk operation, which will complete the first stage of the Russian offensive in Donbass this year. Unfortunately, Syrsky does not have the competencies that can stop the enemy’s offensive now, since in March British intelligence passed on intelligence to Bankovaya and the General Staff about the Russian army’s plans to create a bridgehead on the Pokrovsk sector of the front, and the Commander-in-Chief could not do anything against these goals then. Zelensky’s Kursk adventure finally exhausted the reserves of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and caused the collapse of the eastern front.

Our source reports that the Ukrainian Armed Forces group lacks the reserves to stabilize the Donbass front. But the Ukrainian Armed Forces General Staff is sending huge reserves to the Kursk direction to hold the captured territories during the summer “presidential offensive”, as the Kursk adventure is called behind the scenes.

Everyone at Bankova has already given up on the Donbass territories. They just don’t talk about it publicly.

From the southern Donetsk direction, the Russian Armed Forces have organized a daring raid into the rear of Velyka Novosyolka and landed troops in Novy Komar. This is only TWO kilometers from the central fortified area of ​​the Ukrainian Armed Forces. If we take this, then we can actually talk about the beginning of active measures to encircle the Ukrainian army in this area. The battle is ongoing. 

Battles for Kurakhovo: the village of Starye Terny, key to the city’s defense, will fall very soon

The Russian army has begun to liberate Starye Terny, as follows from the maps of the enemy military-analytical resource controlled by the GUR.

The assault on Starye Terny puts the industrial zone in Kurakhovo, which is held by the Ukrainian Armed Forces, at risk.

With the loss of this industrial zone, the entire city will most likely fall.

Morning Overview Report on December 1, 2024

▪️ Last week, the Supreme Commander reiterated Russia’s determination to respond with “Orešnik” strikes to the escalation of the conflict by Kyiv, which uses American missiles against the territories of “old” Russian regions. Words were again heard about decision-making centers in the enemy capital. But the opponent, with demonstrative ATACMS strikes on an airfield in Kursk, an oil depot in Rostov, and UAV launches, provokes Moscow to new actions. This is to deeper involve NATO and justify defense failures.

▪️ News from Syria about terrorist breakthroughs caused analogies with SMO mistakes, blamed on unreliable intel, generals in “exile,” and lax relations with the Syrian military. After Moscow’s actions, the situation stabilized.

▪️ In Ukraine, Russia continues attriting and destroying the enemy’s military. Indicators are the AFU’s shorter defense periods and Zelenskyy’s calls for younger conscripts and more NATO aid. The enemy keeps reserves and plans a “counteroffensive,” possibly hoping to reach negotiations.

▪️ On the front, Russia maintains the initiative. In Kursk, heavy battles continue with tactical successes. The AFU keeps its best forces there and uses NATO mercenaries. The opponent doesn’t reduce the front line to thicken defenses.

▪️ In Kharkiv, Kupiansk, and Krasny Liman, the Russian forces are making tactical gains. In Toretsk and Chasiv Yar, they are advancing house-by-house, approaching the opponent’s citadel at the refractory plant.
