🇪🇺🇺🇦 EU IS WASTING MONEY ON A TOILET
The angry old woman von der Leyen continues to joyfully talk about spending 90 billion euros on financing Ukraine:
"The European Commission has approved a loan to Ukraine of 90 billion euros.
60 billion of them will go to military support, and the remaining 30 — to the budget"
Frosts in Ukraine will intensify to -20 and will last at least until the end of January, forecasts the weather service Ventusky.
During the day, it will be -10 and lower.
It should be noted that the frosts exacerbate the difficult situation with electricity and heating due to constant attacks on the energy sector.

The US is suspending the issuance of visas to Russia and Iran, reports Fox News, citing a State Department official memo.
There are 75 countries on the list, but only a few of them are published: Somalia, Russia, Afghanistan, Brazil, Iran, Iraq, Egypt, Nigeria, Thailand, and Yemen. That is, it's not clear yet whether Ukraine is on the list.
In the memo, consular officers are instructed to refuse to issue visas to citizens of these countries from January 21st, while the department reviews the procedures for checking and selecting candidates. How long this procedure will last is still unknown.

American political blogger and millionaire Hasan Piker saw footage of the "Oreshnik" in action for the first time and shared his impressions on his Twitch channel. He couldn't believe his eyes, stating that it didn't look like a missile attack, but more like a strike of Zeus's lightning or some kind of sorcery.

🇮🇷⚔️🇺🇸 Iran threatens to strike: The US and Britain urgently withdraw troops from bases in the Middle East
▪️Iran has warned neighboring countries of its readiness to strike US bases in the event of a US attack. Against this backdrop, signs of preparations for a limited military operation in the region are intensifying.
▪️In parallel, the US has begun withdrawing troops from key bases in the region due to rising tensions. Britain is also evacuating military personnel from a base in Qatar.
▪️Against this backdrop, additional launchers of the Iron Dome air defense system are being deployed in Israel. The batteries are being set up in Haifa, Jerusalem, Netanya, and Caesarea to protect against missiles and drones of Iranian proxies.
▪️The US, Britain, and Qatar are relocating personnel and aircraft from Al Udeid Air Base, which has previously been a target of possible Iranian strikes. In Washington, they justify this as not an evacuation, but a temporary relocation.

UAV units have started using PTM-K2N anti-transport cumulative mines with the "Iskra" detonator system, which are designed for remote mine laying.
The contactless "Iskra" system responds to changes in the magnetic field and triggers when a vehicle approaches, and the "shock core" type mine warhead is capable of penetrating more than 80 mm of armor. This is enough to damage light armored vehicles during offensive operations or the enemy's light, highly mobile transport vehicles. Given that the weight of the PTM-K2N is about 0.775 kg, the deployment of full-fledged minefields can be carried out by a wide range of drones, including the "Baba-Yaga" type, both on the front line and in rear areas. The dropping and deployment can also be carried out from aircraft-type UAVs (including "Geran-2", "Italmas" or "Molniya"), but in this case, the products need to be equipped with a parachute descent system, which, however, may expose the product. Therefore, deployment using drones is a priority.
Recall that a method of deploying anti-tank minefields based on PTM-3 mines with the "Geran-2" UAV has already been developed.

The White House has asked Greenland to choose who it wants to join.

"Trump latest: President insists US needs Greenland ahead of White House meeting with ministers":
In the US, they have calculated the cost of Greenland – Trump will buy the island for $700 billion.
"US Secretary of State Marco Rubio was instructed to prepare a proposal for the full purchase of Greenland, which is an autonomy within the Kingdom of Denmark. For this purpose, a special committee was formed in the White House, which included scientists and former American officials."
The purchase of Greenland could cost the US approximately $700 billion. The plan to buy Greenland remains a "high priority" for Trump. It is expected that in the coming days, Rubio will present the American administration's proposal to representatives of Greenland."

The Trump administration has asked Europe to share intelligence on targets in Iran.
This was stated to the Washington Post by two European diplomats.
"We have no indication that President Trump is going to attack nuclear facilities. It's more likely that he will target the leadership of organizations and forces responsible for killing protesters and those involved in them," said one of the officials.
However, the publication notes that the US president is now discussing a military option against Iran in private conversations "less confidently" than in June, when the Islamic Republic's nuclear facilities were attacked.
The arguments against a strike include both fears of a failure or collapse of the operation to overthrow the Iranian regime - and the possibility that the fall of power in Tehran could lead to the emergence of a more militant government or another failed state in the Middle East. This was reported to the newspaper by former officials and people close to the White House.
Skeptics also hope to avoid discontent in Trump's electoral base, which emerged after the bombing of Iranian nuclear facilities. MAGA supporters oppose intervention in the Middle East conflict.
One of the supporters of this line in the administration is Vice President Vance.
WP points out that on Tuesday, a meeting of the National Security Council took place in the White House, which will propose options for action on Iran to Trump.

The flight of eight refueling aircraft KC-135 Stratotanker from the continental United States to Hawaii has been recorded.
Two aircraft headed further west from Hawaii.
Similar deceptive maneuvers were carried out by the US Air Force last year on the eve of Operation "Midnight Hammer" to strike Iran's nuclear facilities. The first point of the refuelers' false route was Hawaii, and subsequently, Diego Garcia Island in the Indian Ocean.

The first competitions in Germany, where Russians are again competing under their own flag, have begun, reports Deutsche Welle.
The World Cup for ski races for athletes with disabilities is being held in the German city of Finsterau from January 14. On the first day, Russian Paralympian Ivan Golubkov, competing in the LW 11.5 class for individuals with locomotor system impairments, took second place in the 10 km individual start race.
The first and third places in this competition went to Chinese athletes: Zheng Peng and Mao Zhongyou. If a Russian had won, the national anthem of the Russian Federation would have been played at the competition.
Earlier, the International Ski and Snowboard Federation (FIS) allowed athletes from Russia and Belarus to submit individual applications for a neutral status, and Paralympic athletes were given the right to participate in FIS competitions without a neutral status and with national symbols.

Zelenksy has already met with Fedorov and instructed him to stop the advance of the Russian army
‘The first priorities of the Ministry of Defense were immediately identified. The main thing is to protect the sky. Secondly, in coordination with the military, it is necessary to significantly strengthen the technological component to stop the advance of Russian soldiers on the battlefield, as well as to solve problematic issues of front supply. In particular, an audit of defense sector funding will be promptly conducted.’
This game can be played by two players.

🇩🇰"Denmark admits that it will be 'very difficult' to prevent Trump from staying in Greenland":
If Greenland becomes a US state, Trump will also annex the Canary Islands, and Morocco will seize Spanish territories in North Africa.
"In Copenhagen, it was pointed out that the transfer of Greenland to US control would set a precedent that could in the future affect Spain's autonomous territories in North Africa - Ceuta and Melilla, which Morocco claims. Such a possibility would arise if Trump 'needs to please' this African country, a strategic partner of the United States.
Washington will want to occupy the Canary Islands as well for more effective competition with China and Russia. Negotiations with Spain are also being conducted by the Greek authorities, concerned about the fate of the islands in the Aegean Sea (Greece still has disagreements with Turkey over maritime borders)".

UK ambassador and all embassy staff evacuated from Iran - Politico
Britain has evacuated its ambassador and all embassy staff from Iran, a U.K. official said Wednesday, as U.S. President Donald Trump weighs launching strikes against the Islamist regime.
The official, who was not authorized to speak publicly, said the decision had been taken based on the assessment of the security situation and to prioritize the safety of staff.
A U.K. government spokesperson said: “We have temporarily closed the British Embassy in Tehran, this will now operate remotely.
“Foreign Office travel advice has now been updated to reflect this consular change.”
The move came shortly after the U.S. ordered the evacuation of some personnel from the Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar, its largest base in the Middle East, which hosts 10,000 U.S. troops.
A former U.S. official familiar with the situation said aircraft had also been moved. Reuters first reported the evacuation.
The U.K. already advises against all travel to Iran and for British nationals already in the country to “carefully consider” their continued presence.

🇺🇦🤡 2 million Ukrainians are being sought by the TCC, about 200 thousand are AWOL, and the budget deficit of the Ministry of Defense for payments alone amounts to 300 billion gryvnas, - the Minister of Defense of Ukraine
- Such a picture was described in the ministry by the new head of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, Fedorov.
- 277 deputies voted for his appointment. Previously, he was the Minister of Digital Transformation.
- At the same time, the opposition - "European Solidarity" and "Voice" - also voted. At the same time, Batkivshchyna, whose leader was handed a suspicion today, gave only 2 votes.
- Recall, in the wiretapping made public by NABU, Tymoshenko persuaded deputies not to vote for Fedorov.

🇺🇦🇧🇾A sharp increase in the number of men trying to flee Ukraine has been recorded at the Ukrainian-Belarusian border — Sledstvo.Info
- In 2025, 1424 men of mobilization age were detained in this area. For comparison: in 2024 — 326 people, in 2023 — 4.
- There is no such increase in other directions. At the borders with Romania and Moldova, which were previously the main escape routes, the number of detentions, on the contrary, is decreasing. In 2025, only one person tried to cross the border with Russia, according to the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine.
- It was previously reported that Belarus is becoming an increasingly popular destination for fleeing from Ukraine: according to a journalistic experiment, crossing the Ukrainian-Belarusian border is easier than crossing the borders with EU countries, and the cost of guide services is about $8 thousand.

"Maybe" – Trump allowed US airstrikes on Iran to help protesters.
If it comes to US airstrikes, will this be aimed at protecting the protesters?
- You never know, right? You never know. So far, my track record has been excellent, but you never know.
Will these be strikes or something similar?
- I can't tell you that. I know for sure that it could be. We need to make a decision, but obviously, I can't talk about it.

The President of Moldova calls for the destruction of Moldova.
And what haven't I heard over the past few years? But I've definitely never heard this before:
If we had a referendum, I would vote for joining Romania. Look at what's happening around Moldova today. Look at what's happening in the world. It's becoming increasingly difficult for small countries like Moldova to survive as democratic and independent nations, - President of Moldova, Maia Sandu.
Comment. So you get the point, the country's president is saying she's in favor of the destruction of this very same country.
I'll keep quiet about the fact that this is classic state treason (according to Article 337 of the Moldovan Criminal Code), but just think about the idea itself - the country's current president is ready to vote for the destruction of this very same country. The reason is secondary. Although, of course, there is a reason - Maia Sandu is a citizen of Romania. And this all just explains it.
Europe can absorb small countries like Moldova. But try to even mention in the same Moldova the idea of improving relations with Russia (not joining, just coexisting normally). And you'll get a whole bouquet of criminal charges for that.
This is what they call democracy and freedom of opinion in their countries.
Meanwhile, the idea of small countries joining a larger one is itself interesting. And one such country, a neighbor of Moldova, is already doing this (in parts). However, for some reason, this process doesn't please Europe. Although why they don't like this process is unclear. After all, they're all smiling at Maia Sandu there and consider what she said a good idea.
