European Union adopts the 22nd sanctions package against Russia by October 31, 2026 (confirmed by EU Official Journal or Reuters by November 1, 2026)

Hit ✦ AI-generated prediction Published on 23. September 2026 · Predicted for 31. October 2026 · Based on: Ongoing Event

Probability

78%

The EU has adopted new Russia sanctions packages at ~3-month intervals since February 2022: Package 20 on April 23, 2026, Package 21 on July 23, 2026 – exactly three months apart. Following this cadence, Package 22 is expected around October 23, 2026, fitting well within the prediction window to October 31. The ongoing Ukraine war, persistent sanctions evasion (energy trade, crypto, shadow fleet) and EU Council autumn sessions support the probability. No direct Polymarket market; historical base rate ~78%.

Ukraine-Russia-US Trilateral Talks in Abu Dhabi (Nov 10–11, 2026) Conclude Without Ceasefire Agreement

Alberto Núñez Feijóo (PP) secures parliamentary majority with Vox coalition and becomes Spanish Prime Minister — General Election 29 November 2026 (confirmed by Junta Electoral Central or AP by 1 December 2026)

Spain holds a general election on 29 November 2026. Polymarket prices Feijóo as next PM at 85%, Kalshi at 82% — both serve as anchors. A separate Polymarket market gives PP+Vox a 92% probability of a joint majority (>176/350 seats). Current polls (Sondaxe) show PP at 29.2% narrowly ahead of PSOE (26.9%); Vox is tracking slightly higher. Feijóo failed to form a government in 2023, but market odds reflect the lesson learned: PP+Vox is now seen as stable enough. No deviation from market anchor warranted.

Roger Wicker (Republican) retains the US Senate seat in Mississippi after recount — confirmed by AP or NBC News by 20 November 2026

With 97% of votes counted, Republican incumbent Roger Wicker leads by just 28 votes per NBC News live results (04.11.2026) — one of the closest Senate races in history. Mississippi election law requires an automatic recount when the margin falls below 0.5% of total votes, expected to conclude by 15–20 November. The remaining 3% of ballots originate primarily from rural precincts with historically higher Republican turnout, giving Wicker a slight statistical edge. No specific Polymarket market for Mississippi was identified.
