Main topic covered today: SNEAK PEAK INTO EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW WITH ALEXUS GRYNKEWICH The Warsaw Security Forum kicks off today, bringing together political leaders, military commanders, and security experts from around the world. Among the high-profile guests is NATO's Supreme Allied Commander Europe, General Alexus Grynkewich. Our very own Adam Jasser and Zuzanna Jurek spoke to the general ahead of the event. EU TO APPROVE LARGEST PACKAGE OF SANCTIONS AGAINTS RUSSIA EU Foreign Ministers have gathered in Luxembourg to formally approve the largest package of sanctions against Russia since the start of the war in Ukraine. This comes amid an unsettling rise in hybrid attacks. RUSSIA–UKRAINE WAR U.S. President Donald Trump claims that Russia and Ukraine have agreed to an "energy ceasefire" effective immediately but provided no details. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Kyiv would support the ceasefire if Moscow did but later accused Russia of striking Ukrainian energy facilities, including a strike on a joint heating and power plant in Kharkiv that took place after Trump's ceasefire announcement. Host: Sally Jastrzębska
BREAKING: The diesel fuel Russia is now exporting to the United States at U.S. President Trump’s request may have originated in Iran, as Russian oil refineries are largely unable to produce diesel because of Ukrainian attacks. Russia has been importing most of the diesel it needs from Iran. In September, thousands of Iranian tanker trucks were spotted in various regions of Russia, including Ryazan, carrying Iranian diesel. Russia may be buying Iranian diesel and reselling it to the United States. If so, Trump’s attempt to lower U.S. energy prices and deceive American voters is putting money into the hands of Russia and Iran’s Islamic regime.
