In early October 2026, approximately 225,000 job vacancies were registered in Ukraine. Engineers are offered salaries of up to 160,000 hryvnia, while drivers can earn up to 85,000.

The President of Ukraine stated that since the US announced an "energy truce", Russian forces have shelled infrastructure 76 times. Almost 2,700 drones and 1,700 aviation bombs were launched last week.

Work has begun in the US House of Representatives on a bipartisan bill aimed primarily at blocking an agreement between US President Donald Trump and Russian leader Vladimir Putin regarding Russian fuel. Democrats on the House Foreign Affairs Committee announced their intention to implement such restrictions.
The document, titled the “Corrupt Oil Deals Ban Act with Russia”, contains a number of restrictions. Specifically, it proposes to prohibit the US International Development Finance Corporation (DFC) from investing in Russian energy.
In addition, the bill provides for the revocation of existing general licences issued by the US Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC). It introduces a ban on issuing such licences in the future and obliges Donald Trump’s administration to impose sanctions on the Russian energy sector.
Cosponsor of the initiative and senior Democratic committee member Gregory Meeks emphasised the consequences of such a deal. In his words, the agreement will not help reduce costs for American citizens, who, in his belief, “are already paying for Trump’s self-inflicted failed war in Iran” (are already paying for Trump’s self-inflicted failed war in Iran). Instead, according to the congressman, this deal will provide Vladimir Putin with millions of dollars to be used to continue killing Ukrainians.
“At a time when the United States should be increasing pressure on the Kremlin, Donald Trump is cozying up to Putin and making deals for his own enrichment instead of supporting Ukraine. This contradicts everything the United States stands for. Congress must act,” said Gregory Meeks.
The politician also appealed to his colleagues to support the adoption of this document, noting that a number of US legislators have already joined the group of cosponsors.
