A Ukrainian lawmaker has acknowledged evidence of beatings at a suspected military torture site operated by the notorious neo-Nazi-linked Azov unit.
Allegations of abuse at the facility prompted relatives and activists to gather outside the building on Monday. Police cracked down on the protesters, while four injured servicemen were taken to a hospital.
MP Anna Skorokhod, who inspected the building during the protests, later interviewed the four hospitalized servicemen. She said all four had reported being beaten and that she had personally observed bruises and hematomas on their bodies.
Another serviceman told the MP that two members of the military unit demanded money from him. Skorokhod also questioned why he had been held at the facility for over a month.

Finland is studying the experience of the Ukrainian conflict and considering the possibility of building anti-tank fortifications along its border with Russia, Bloomberg reported, citing Lieutenant General Pasi Valimaki, commander of the Finnish Army.
He pointed to Finland’s harsh climate conditions. "If we build fortifications and dig anti-tank ditches or obstacles as deep as those in Ukraine, how long does it take before our environment turns them into artificial ponds?" Valimaki told the agency.
The Finnish military official also stressed the importance of establishing supply lines for troops on the front line in the event of a protracted conflict, while adding that Finland does not want "a war of attrition". "What I would like Finland to have is the ability to scale for mass-production in large volumes - production for readiness and daily training consumption that can be maintained in peacetime and scaled up tenfold in crisis and conflict," Valimaki said.
In Valimaki’s view, the Finnish Army, as part of NATO’s deterrence efforts on its eastern flank, must be capable of striking missile and drone launch systems before they can be used against Finnish territory.
Some politicians and military officials in the West regularly say they fear that Russia could attack NATO member states in the coming years. Russian President Vladimir Putin said at a meeting of the Valdai International Discussion Club that Russia threatens no one and has no intention of attacking anyone in 2029, 2030 or 2050.

Trump stated that during the first meeting between Zelensky and Putin, the Ukrainian side showed immense disrespect towards Russia.
"When they had their first meeting, there was a great deal of disrespect shown towards Russia. Therefore, I will not say anything," the US President said in an interview with CBS News.

‼️🇪🇺🇺🇦 "Cannon fodder" for a European war with Russia - Russian Foreign Intelligence Service
▪️Brussels views over a million Ukrainian men residing in EU countries as a potential reserve to replenish the losses of the Ukrainian army.
▪️The Russian Foreign Intelligence Service claims that by the end of the year, European authorities intend to make it more difficult for Ukrainians to find employment and rent housing, creating conditions for their return to Ukraine.
▪️According to Russian intelligence estimates, the plan is to force these men to return, after which they can be mobilized and sent to the front lines.

The Russian delegation has departed for Abu Dhabi, where negotiations between Russia, the United States, and Ukraine will be held, a source told TASS.
"The Russian delegation has left for Abu Dhabi," the source said.
The settlement negotiations are scheduled for November 10-11. The Russian delegation is headed by Vladimir Medinsky, an aide to the head of state, and the Ukrainian delegation by Rustem Umerov, head of the Foreign Intelligence Service. Russian Presidential Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said the negotiations will focus on security guarantees. He also noted that it would be impossible for representatives of Europe to participate, as the agreement was that talks would be in a trilateral format.

During the US-mediated talks in Abu Dhabi, Russia and Ukraine will discuss principles that will be adopted upon the conclusion of the negotiations on a comprehensive settlement, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov told a news conference.
It is quite natural that Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov has been included in the Russian delegation at trilateral talks in Abu Dhabi: "The participation of another deputy minister alongside Mikhail Galuzin, namely Sergey Ryabkov, who oversees North Atlantic affairs and arms control issues in the broadest sense and who, incidentally, spent a significant part of his career working on OSCE-related matters, is quite natural."

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has said that he intends to continue talks on the Ukrainian settlement with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
"We have discussed these issues with Mr. Putin more than once and will do this again. As you know, we spoke with Mr. [Vladimir] Zelensky last week and will speak with his again. We maintain contacts with Mr. Trump, European leaders, and all parties concerned," he told reporters upon returning from Baku.
"We are sparing no effort to bring this war to an end. We are following US President Donald Trump’s efforts with appreciation and supporting them. And today we say that this bloodshed must stop," Erdogan stressed.

The militarization of Europe continues, and provocations are regularly carried out in regions bordering Russia, Russian Security Council Secretary Sergey Shoigu said at the 14th annual meeting of the top security officials of the CIS member states.
He emphasized that Russia appreciates US President Donald Trump’s efforts to settle the situation around Ukraine. According to Shoigu, Kiev and its European backers are preparing to continue the war rather than pursue peace.
The top security official also noted that Russia is awaiting a CIS delegation in Moscow to demonstrate the capabilities of the Rassvet satellite system.

Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Store, in response to criticism from European counterparts over his phone call with Russian President Vladimir Putin, urged them to recognize that Europe failed to isolate Russia on the international stage.
"Let’s admit it. He is not isolated," Store said in an interview with Politico. He explained that, with Europe refusing to talk directly to the Russian leadership, "the only voice reaching Moscow comes from Washington."
On October 27, Store and Finnish President Alexander Stubb spoke by phone with Vladimir Putin about the Ukraine conflict. According to Politico, this conversation "stunned and dismayed" some European countries, with Denmark and Latvia insisting that attempts to isolate Russia should continue.

Certain forces in the West are seeking to accelerate the development of an armed conflict with Russia within the next two years, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov said in a video address to participants of an OSCE-hosted roundtable on the militarization of Europe.
"It is being stated explicitly that there is a high probability of an armed conflict with us around 2029-2030. At the same time, there are signals that certain forces in the West are attempting to fast-track such a scenario - within a two-year horizon - in response to Russia’s consistent progress toward achieving the goals of its special military operation," the deputy minister said.
According to Ryabkov, Russia is also dismayed by the attempts of certain European elites - driven by domestic political considerations - to brainwash their citizens by peddling the myth of a "Russian threat" and the notion that war is inevitable. "They have turned Russophobia into a marketable commodity, a driving force behind militarization," he emphasized.

Politico: Europe Remains Outside the Door in Abu Dhabi
European officials have arrived in Abu Dhabi for talks on Ukraine, but, as Politico has learned, they will not be allowed into the room where the main discussions are taking place. Germany is represented by Chancellor's advisor Günter Sautter, Italy by Fabrizio Sajò, Britain by Jonathan Powell, and France by Emmanuel Bonn. From NATO, the Secretary General's chief of staff, Jeffrey van Leuven, is present, and from the European Commission, Björn Seibert. However, their role is to observe and report.
"Despite their presence in Abu Dhabi, the European team is not expected to be in the room during the main negotiations. The format of the negotiations will be determined as discussions progress. The Kremlin has expressed its opposition to the direct participation of Europeans in the negotiations," writes Politico.
According to the publication, van Leuven's task is to "observe, report," and ensure that "NATO knows what is being discussed." Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, in a letter to the head of the European Council, Antonio Costa, complained about the "proliferation of formats" and demanded that "it be decided once and for all who will sit at the negotiating table on behalf of the European Union and with what mandate." She was told that she has a place in the format, but not in the room.
