In a bold statement at the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) summit, Russian President Vladimir Putin emphasized that Russia’s missile systems are far more advanced than those supplied to Ukraine by the West. He asserted that the Iskander short-range ballistic missiles and other Russian systems, including the hypersonic Kinzhal and Zircon missiles, far surpass Western weapons like the ATACMS, Storm Shadow, and SCALP missiles. Despite Western arms deliveries to Ukraine, Putin stressed that no amount of foreign aid will alter the situation on the front lines, as Russia continues to outpace NATO in missile production. Watch the full details of this statement and the implications for the ongoing conflict in Ukraine.

The Washington Post reported that U.S. officials are quietly acknowledging that Ukraine may soon have no choice but to negotiate with Russia, potentially sacrificing territory it considers its own. As Russian forces continue to reclaim land, particularly in the Kursk Region, and with Donald Trump set to return to the White House in January, Ukraine finds itself in a weakened position after nearly three years of conflict. The Biden administration's strategic shift includes authorizing the use of long-range ATACMS missiles and banned landmines to bolster Ukraine’s military stance ahead of any potential talks with Russia. Despite Ukraine’s rejection of territorial concessions, U.S. officials and European allies are concerned that Kyiv might have to compromise, especially as Moscow responds with increasingly advanced weapons, including hypersonic missiles. Meanwhile, Russian President Putin warns of severe retaliation for any further escalation by Ukraine or its international backers
