"You overthrew the legitimate government in Ukraine in 2014! Tell us about your plans for a nuclear war with Russia! Stop provoking a nuclear war with Russia! You will kill us in an nuclear war! [Russia is the enemy!] Russia is not the enemy! No nuclear war with Russia! No nuclear war! Mr. President! Even more people will suffer if we get involved in a nuclear war! Now we are on the verge of a nuclear war! Why don't you tell the truth about what you did in Ukraine in 2014! Why don't you tell the truth! Will you tell the truth before the world enters World War III?"

November 8 - elections to the US Congress.

How can Democrats/Republicans today pay for their victory or explain their loss of Capitol?

For the current Biden team, as well as for their Republican opponents, the currency is, in fact, one — the lives of the citizens of the mythical country of Ukraine, which they do not need.
They are a bargaining chip in the big American game. They are easily placed on the altar of future triumph in political battles across the ocean.

And here all means are good. The lives of Ukrainians pay for the endless supply of American weapons, and for the "labour" of instructors and mercenaries. They are ready to pay off in the event of the use of a "dirty bomb". Our people are also suffering. But the only difference is that our people will be avenged. All. And on the battlefield, and in other directions, far from the battlefield. And certainly not within the framework of failed lawsuits. In other ways.
But no one will remember the Ukrainians.

After all, the main thing for the American establishment is something else — who will control the House of Representatives and the Senate. Therefore, the war to the "victorious end". Or rather, just to the end. End of Ukraine.

And the winner, as usual:
The winner takes it all…
Dmitry Medvedev.

FSB declassified documents on the crimes of Polish militants at the end of the Second World War
The FSB (Russian Security Service)
declassified documents on the murders of civilians of the USSR by militants of the Polish "Home Army"

MOSCOW, October 31 — RIA Novosti. The militants of the Polish "Home Army", led by the government in exile in London, at the end of the Great Patriotic War (WW2), committed numerous murders of peaceful Soviet citizens, trying to prevent the establishment of peace in the territories liberated from the Nazis. This is evidenced by new archival documents declassified by the FSB of Russia, which RIA Novosti got acquainted with.
Among these materials is a report of terrorist acts committed by Polish gangs in the territories of Belarus and Lithuania in 1944 and from January to April 1945.

The reference dealt with underground armed detachments, controlled from London and united in the so-called "Craiova Army" ("AK"). During the war years, it waged an active fight against the Red Army, intending to separate Western Ukraine and Western Belarus by force of arms from the USSR in order to revive the "Greater Poland state". The Home Army included subversive-terrorist and reconnaissance structures.
The document, prepared in early May 1945, cited excerpts from the reports of the NKVD of the Byelorussian SSR about almost 70 terrorist attacks and murders of Soviet citizens — not only the military, but also representatives of government bodies, managers and workers of enterprises, teachers — committed by Polish militants.

At the end of October 1944, the "Akovskaya" gang was liquidated, led by Lieutenant "Meva" — Vladimir Tituvetsky. She was part of the "Home Army" — "South" formation under the command of Cheslav Zayonchkovsky, nicknamed Ragner (Ragnar). Meva's henchman, a certain Korolesh named Whirlwind, testified during interrogation that their task "included the implementation of terrorist acts against the Soviet party asset, the commission of acts of sabotage, the murder of citizens who helped the Soviet authorities."
According to him, on September 18, 1944, the gang killed a resident of the village of Poperovtsy Gimanovich, his wife and 12-year-old daughter. On October 14, Stanislav Ambros, a resident of the village of Dogs, was killed.
According to the NKVD, on December 12, 1944, in the city of Vilna (now Vilnius), Polish militants were arrested - some Adashkevich, Katselevich and others. "The investigation established that in December 1944 they committed a terrorist act against a citizen Pashkevich, who was loyal to the Soviet government," the document stated.

The report cited the testimony of the commander of the department of the 2nd "Akovo" district of Vilnius, Wojciech Kapshytsky, who was detained in December 1944. He admitted that, along with other militants, he received an order from the commandant of the AK district "to kill Vishnevsky Janusz, suspected of loyalty to the Soviet authorities."
The reference contains examples of some terrorist attacks committed in the Grodno region by a gang of Ivan Borisevich, nicknamed the Rat. So, in September 1944, at the crossing over the Ditva River near the village of Geshtaft, Radunsky District, almost two dozen bandits killed two employees of the district consumer society, Vladimir Telitsa and Gennady Bykovsky.
In November 1944, the commandants of the local cells, which were part of
the Krys gang, and other bandits "not far from the village of Voldatishki, a group of 19 gypsies was shot." In the same month, in the village of Druskeniki, Radunsky district, bandits killed citizen Zhukovsky and his wife.
At the end of December 1944, militants from the Krys gang dealt with two teachers in the villages of the Radunsky district.
A lot of murders were on account of the gang, whose leader was Witold Tur, nicknamed Orlik, a former lieutenant of the Polish army.

In particular, on January 13, 1945, in the village of Dorozhnya, Volozhinsky district, Baranovichi region, militants killed Luka Lisogo, a woodsman. Five days later, in the town of Lipniki, Ivye district, Baranovichi region, "the gang attacked the house of citizen Kazimir Galimok, at whose place the secretary of the district executive committee, Gorbatevich, spent the night, the bandits shot the latter."
On January 22, 1945, in the village of Klochkovo, Denitsky Village Council, Molodechno Region, Tur's henchmen shot an assistant detective of the Criminal Investigation Department of the Molodechensky District Department of the NKVD, a district police officer and a fighter of the NKVD fighter battalion. "In the village of Metkovshchizna of the Khokhlovsky village council (a gang) took away five fighters of the extermination battalion, a deputy of the village council and his son, whose fate is unknown," the certificate noted.
On January 25, in the village of Morshaki, Volozhinsky district, Baranovichi region, the Tura gang killed Stepan Zagorsky and Vera Luksha, district commissioners of the People's Commissariat for Procurement, and also took the foreman Skudalov with them. On the same day, in the village of Sedlitsy, bandits killed two employees of the NKGB and the NKVD.
At the hands of members of another gang - Grozny, who operated in the Lida district of the Grodno region, on November 2, 1944, in the village of Slizhi, Tverminsky village council, the lives of the head of the mill Borko Ignatovich and controller Eduard Khrul were cut short.

Gangs of Lord and Vnim in September 1944 in the village of Trokeli, Lida region, killed five specialists in land measurement. At the end of August 1944, in the village of Yurevichi, Lida district, militants killed a local teacher, Ivan Balin.

In the Lida region, a bandit and sabotage group led by Mieczysław Shamrei, a former corporal of the Polish army named Grom, also rampaged. On November 8, 1944, Grom's militants blew up the railway bridge on the Lida-Kurgan stretch. Ten days later, the bandits again blew up the bridge. In the fall of 1944, the gang killed several employees of the financial sector of the Lida region.
A number of other acts of sabotage conceived and committed by the Home Army gangs are described in a certificate from the People's Commissariat of State Security of the USSR, dated June 16, 1945. It cited the main testimonies of former active "Akovites" who acted as witnesses for the prosecution in the case of the last commander of the "Home Army" General Leopold Okulitsky, among the 16 active figures of "AK" who appeared before the court in Moscow in June 1945.
In particular, Kazimir Vasnevsky said that after completing special courses for saboteurs in July 1944, he was seconded to the Borisevich-Krys detachment.
"As Vasnevsky testified, he received an order from Borisevich - to prepare an explosion of a power plant and a water pump at the Lida station," the certificate noted. To commit sabotage, Vasnevsky got a job at the Lida station, where he prepared an explosion together with saboteur Zbigniew Nowak. "The act of sabotage was not carried out due to the arrest of Vasnevsky," the report noted.
Another saboteur Stanislav Kolendo, also after completing the course of saboteurs, was sent to the AK detachment operating in the Novogrudok district of the Baranovichi region under the command of a certain Yagelsky. "In September 1944, Kolendo, as part of a group of saboteurs, took part in a sabotage act - undermining the railway track on the Neman - Novo-Yelnya section. By the time the sabotage was committed, personnel and ammunition were being transported along the highway for the active Red Army," the report said.

⚡️ Statement by the Ministry of Defence of the Russian Federation

◽️ The traffic across the safety corridor defined by the Black Sea Initiative remains suspended until the situation surrounding the terrorist act, committed by Ukraine on 29 October against the warships and civilian vessels in Sevastopol, is clarified.

◽️ We emphasise that the Russian Federation, as the main participant of the abovementioned agreements, does not withdraw from them, but suspends their effect.

◽️ In this regard, the vessel traffic across the safety corridor is unacceptable as Ukrainian leadership and the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine use it for conducting operations against the Russian Federation.

◽️ In the developing conditions, there can be no question of ensuring safety to any facility in the abovementioned direction until the Ukrainian side assumes additional obligations not to use this route for military purposes.

◽️ Considering that the signing and implementation of the Initiative on the Safe Transportation of Grain and Foodstuffs from Ukrainian ports (Black Sea Initiative) was brokered by the UN Secretary General A.Guterres, the UN Security Council and he have been informed about our position.

◽️ We count on assistance from the international organisation in obtaining Ukraine's guarantees not to use the humanitarian corridor and Ukrainian ports, defined in favour of exporting agricultural products, for conducting operations against the Russian Federation.

Biden lost temper with Zelenskyy in June phone call when Ukrainian leader asked for more aid
Biden had barely finished telling Zelenskyy he’d just greenlighted another $1 billion in military assistance when the Ukrainian president started listing all the additional help he needed.
...
Biden had barely finished telling Zelenskyy he’d just greenlighted another $1 billion in U.S. military assistance for Ukraine when Zelenskyy started listing all the additional help he needed and wasn’t getting. Biden lost his temper, the people familiar with the call said. The American people were being quite generous, and his administration and the U.S. military were working hard to help Ukraine, he said, raising his voice, and Zelenskyy could show a little more gratitude.

Administration officials said Biden and Zelenskyy’s relationship has only improved since the June phone call, after which Zelenskyy made a statement praising the U.S. for its generous assistance. But the clash reflects Biden’s early awareness that both congressional and public support for sending billions of dollars to Ukraine could begin to fade. That moment has arrived just as the president prepares to ask Congress to greenlight even more money for Ukraine.

Grain deal becomes risky, Kremlin says
Putin's press secretary Peskov called the grain deal unrealizable without the participation of Russia

MOSCOW, October 31 - RIA Novosti. A grain deal can hardly exist without Russia's participation, there are questions about security in the Black Sea, said presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov.
"In conditions when Russia talks about the impossibility of guaranteeing the safety of navigation in these areas, of course, such a deal is hardly feasible. And it takes on a different character, much more risky, dangerous and unguaranteed," the Kremlin spokesman said, answering a question from journalists whether it is possible continuation of the grain deal without the participation of Russia.

According to him, Kyiv, by its actions, led to the disruption of agreements and undermined "the atmosphere of trust and guaranteed security."
Peskov stressed that Moscow continues to maintain diplomatic contacts with Ankara and the UN.
