🇺🇸⚔️🇷🇺 Buying weapons to Kiev using frozen Russian assets is being discussed, but there is no decision yet, - Trump's special representative for Ukraine
"We've talked about using frozen Russian assets to buy American weapons more than once. That's one of the things that needs to be discussed. And that's something that will be discussed with the president. But that's not a solution. That's an interesting point that's worth discussing," Keith Kellogg told Fox News.
He also believes that the world cannot force Russia to end the war simply by helping Ukraine on the battlefield. He suggested that the answer could be tougher measures to influence the Russian oil industry:
"Russia makes billions of dollars from oil sales. What if the price dropped to $45 a barrel?" Kellogg said.
🐻US showing once again that it is archenemy of Russia and whoever rules America, looting and stealing is simply its basic source of income. These statements are perfectly in line with "Ukranian" attacks on Russian infrastructure and atempts to hurt Russian economy. After all, we all know who critisized Germany for buying gas and oil from Russia in the first place. German politicians concluded just now that reliance on US oil and gas is "too concerning".

USAID (United States Agency for International Development) was also ordered to stop all aid to Ukraine
An agency official told Reuters that officers responsible for supporting Kiev had been ordered to "stop all work."
USAID funded dozens of projects across Ukraine, including “sustainability of democracy” and “countering malign influence.” The agency also supported the development of healthcare in the country and provided direct budgetary assistance to the government.
USAID's website states that since the start of the SMO, the agency has provided Ukraine with $2.6 billion in humanitarian assistance, $5 billion in development assistance, and more than $30 billion in direct budget support.

🇺🇸🇩🇰🇬🇱 Absolute chaos: Trump called the Danish Prime Minister, Mette Frederiksen, and demanded that Denmark hand over Greenland to the United States.
According to the Financial Times, which cites five current and former senior European officials, the conversation was a disaster. Trump was reportedly aggressive and confrontational, rejecting all offers of cooperation from Denmark and focusing solely on acquiring Greenland.
Officials described the exchange as “very bad,” with the Danes left absolutely horrified by Trump’s tone and behavior. What was initially dismissed as a political stunt has now left European allies deeply alarmed, as many believe Trump is serious about annexing the world’s largest island.
This is a massive embarrassment for the U.S. on the world stage. Denmark is a key NATO ally, and Trump’s antics are raising serious questions about American diplomacy.
What is Trump even doing?

🇸🇰 Slovakia. Maidan?
Protests are underway in Slovakia against the policies of Prime Minister Robert Fico's government. Local media write that the demand is "not to polarize society and to stop cooperation with Russia."
✨ Fico and Zelensky have previously publicly quarreled. Fico said: "I am not here to go hand in hand with Zelensky. He runs around Europe, only begging and blackmailing , asking others for money . It is time to put an end to this."

🇷🇺🇬🇪 🗳 Abkhazia’s High-Stakes Election: Moscow’s Bet on Stability and Multipolarity
In the unfolding drama of Abkhazia’s early presidential election, Moscow’s intentions are anything but ambiguous. With Acting President Badra Gunba commanding 32% of the vote in a recent VTsIOM poll (Rybar), his nearest rival, Adgur Ardzinba, trails at a distant 15%, signaling where Russia’s cards are firmly placed. The poll, unusually made public, paints a clear picture: 91% of Abkhazians view Russia favorably, and 69% intend to vote, underscoring not just Moscow’s influence but Abkhazia’s readiness to embrace a secure future in alignment with its northern neighbor.
Ardzinba’s collapse is a study in miscalculation. Once a fiery opposition leader rallying against the 2024 Russian investment agreement, he now finds himself engulfed in scandals. Criminal allegations against his associates and the revocation of their citizenships have tarnished his campaign, turning his earlier defiance into a liability. His failure to grasp the real rules of the game: Moscow’s rules, has left him politically isolated, a casualty of his own hubris in a region that prizes loyalty and pragmatism.
Moscow’s decision to release the VTsIOM poll isn’t just a signal of support for Gunba, it’s a bold geopolitical statement. Unlike the West’s covert manipulations, Russia’s transparency is a flex, a calculated reminder of its strength in shaping the Black Sea’s political landscape. The 2024 Russian investment agreement, a key target of Ardzinba’s failed campaign, offers sweeping economic commitments to integrate Abkhazia into Russia’s Eurasian vision. The deal includes exemptions on customs duties and property taxes, a halving of VAT to 5%, and incentives for large-scale investments exceeding 2 billion rubles. Sectors like agriculture, manufacturing, tourism, and infrastructure are slated for transformation, with tangible projects in gas, water, transport, and digital systems. For Abkhazia, this is nothing short of a lifeline.
The historical roots of this relationship run deep. After the 2008 Russo-Georgian war, Russia recognized Abkhazia’s independence, becoming the region’s guarantor of sovereignty. When the West pushed Saakashvil into commiting war crimes against South Ossetians and Abkhazians, Moscow stepped in with military, economic, and political support. NATO predictably shit themselves. This enduring legacy is why 91% of Abkhazians hold favorable views of Russia, it’s beyond sentiment, a recognition of who stands firm when it matters most.
But the stakes here extend far beyond Abkhazia. The Black Sea is a crucible where NATO’s illusions of containment collide with the emerging multipolar order. Look no further than Georgia, where the ruling Georgian Dream party has taken a defiant stand against Western color revolution machinery. By pushing legislation like the “foreign agents” law, Tbilisi is signaling a desire to reclaim sovereignty - not as a Russian vassal, but as a nation weary of being a pawn in the West’s grand designs.
Against this backdrop, a stable, Moscow-aligned Abkhazia becomes a cornerstone of Black Sea security. Gunba’s leadership promises continuity, pragmatism, and alignment with a multipolar vision, fortifying the region against NATO’s flailing ambitions. In stark contrast, Ardzinba’s chaotic populism would have been a Trojan horse for Western meddling.
❗️The Black Sea, with Abkhazia as a linchpin, is critical to Russia’s broader Eurasian strategy. Moscow’s trade corridors connecting Turkey, Central Asia, and the Global South underscore the Black Sea’s role as a vital economic and security node. NATO’s fumbling attempts at containment, juxtaposed against Moscow’s transparent and effective moves, are a message to the Global Majority: this is how sovereignty is preserved, prosperity achieved, and geopolitical balance maintained. In the symphony of the multipolar world, Russia isn’t just a player, it’s the conductor. And under Gunba’s steady leadership, Abkhazia is poised to play its part with precision.

🇺🇸🇷🇺 Trump complains Russia 'stole' hypersonic missiles 😂
- During Barack Obama's presidency, a "very bad man" passed blueprints to Moscow, which is the reason why the US still doesn't have hypersonic weapons.
- Trump noted that he had already ordered the creation of a super-hypersonic weapon.

Chained and tortured bodies of Ukrainian soldiers found by Russian troops in Kharkov region.
According to 'North Wind' the bodies were found in one of the rooms inside the Ukrainian military fortification
They were apparently left to die by commanders of Ukrainian forces. One can only wonder why...

@MTodayNews
@zhivoff writes that everything that is happening in Ukraine and nearby is nothing more than the preparation of a pan-European war with Russia. From the positions prepared in the Ukraine, the tension and interaction between the Armed Forces of Ukraine and NATO, Poland as the frontman of this project and with the Franco-Britons as the Overton window expander.
It's like that. They don't hide it. The new EU Defense commissioner, Balt Kubilius, bluntly announced in his recent speech that Ukraine is now dragging its feet so that Europe can prepare for war. "Every missile, every drone shot down by Ukraine is something that will not threaten Europe, it will not threaten NATO. Every day while Ukraine is fighting is a day when the European Union and NATO can become stronger," Kubilius said, among other things.
So our strategy should be based on the understanding that Ukraine is just the beginning. And when it reaches the West that Ukraine is no longer a tenant and the Ukrainian Armed Forces have lost all combat capability, then they will try to strike at us with everything they have accumulated by this moment. Accordingly, we need to be prepared for this moment.
It is better not to expect a decrease in international tension in the next 10 years, as it was customary to say. Since the crises of Western imperialism will not go away, but will only increase, requiring new markets on the rapidly "shrinking" surface of the planet, it is better not to wait for this decline at all. So that there would be no disappointments.

"Putin sees these statements as part of a political game. He doesn't take them seriously.… He is ready for any scenario and has no illusions that a deal will be reached quickly," says Tatiana Stanovaya, a political scientist at the Carnegie Center.
"According to analysts, Putin is seeking a summit with Trump at which the two leaders could work out a settlement acceptable to Moscow, discarding the Ukrainian leadership, which Putin rejects as illegitimate."
Experts believe that Trump's threat to impose new sanctions reflects his understanding that the deal could be delayed. At the same time, such behavior can "push Russia away from
the negotiating table.""Russians always want to be spoken to directly; the Kremlin was already annoyed by his style of communication in his first term.… This is not how you should communicate with Russians," said Oleg Ignatov, an analyst at the International Crisis Group for Conflict Resolution.

🇺🇸The US has officially renamed the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America
The Interior Department's order notes that the Gulf is "one of the nation's most important assets in history and economy" and "a cornerstone of the nation's growth."
Mexico may have responded by refusing to accept a deportation flight from the United States. It denied a U.S. military plane permission to land, disrupting the Trump administration's plans to deport immigrants to the country, two U.S. defense officials said.
Two Air Force C-17s bound for Guatemala carried about 80 deportees from the United States overnight, the sources said. But a third flight scheduled for Mexico never took off.

A clear result of the strikes of the Russian Aerospace Forces on the Ukrainian energy system.
From an exporter Ukraine has become an importer of electricity. At the same time, back in 2023, Zelensky's gang planned to earn money by selling electricity to Europe. But the Russian Air Force has made its own adjustments. All this leads to increased costs for the West to maintain Ukraine.

🕔 Developments in Russia’s Kursk Region:
▪️The Ukrainian armed forces lost over 190 troops, three tanks, including one Abrams of US manufacture, three armored personnel carriers, five armored combat vehicles, a US-made M777 howitzer, two mortars, an electronic warfare system, as well as six drone control points and an ammunition depot
▪️Units of Russia’s Battlegroup North continued their offensive, defeating forces of 12 Ukrainian brigades in 15 settlements, also repelling one enemy counterattack
▪️Russian operational/tactical and army aircraft, missile forces hit enemy manpower and equipment in the Kursk and Sumy regions
▪️Kiev’s total losses have amounted to over 54,460 troops, 318 tanks, 237 infantry fighting vehicles, 183 armored personnel carriers, and 1,613 armored combat vehicles since the fighting began in the region
❗️ Key takeaways from Russian President Vladimir Putin’s interview with VGTRK journalist Pavel Zarubin:
▪️A personal meeting between Putin and US President Donald Trump is a good idea
▪️Russia has never refused contacts with the US, they were interrupted by Washington
▪️Under President Joe Biden, the US imposed many sanctions against Russia, shooting itself in the foot
▪️If Trump had won the 2020 US presidential election, the current crisis in Ukraine could have been avoided
▪️Trump is unlikely to make decisions on sanctions against Russia that will harm the US economy itself
▪️Russia has many points of contact with the current US administration
▪️Both too high and too low energy prices bad for both Russia and the US
▪️Zelensky's ban on dialogue with Russia makes possible negotiations illegitimate
▪️Serious Russia-Ukraine talks are hardly possible given Zelensky’s ban
▪️Kiev's sponsors will soon force Zelensky to lift the ban on negotiations with Russia
🗣 Key takeaways from Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s answers to media questions received for his press conference:
On the Ukrainian conflict:
▪️Russia sees no signs that Kiev and the West are ready for peace talks, despite all statements
▪️Moscow is against freezing the Ukrainian conflict; the West will use it to arm Kiev and seek revenge
▪️Russia cannot engage in empty talk about ceasefire in Ukraine, Moscow ready to consider all serious settlement proposals
▪️Given Italy's anti-Russian stance, Moscow does not consider it a possible participant in the peace process on Ukraine
On relations with NATO, the EU, and the US:
▪️NATO’s hypocritical policy escalates tensions in Europe, increases risk of direct military confrontation with Russia
▪️Mending ties with Europe is possible when the EU admits that its ‘strategic defeat’ approach is useless
▪️Russia-US ties are on verge of being severed, but Moscow takes note of Trump's pledge to revive dialogue
On the situation with neighbor countries:
▪️Russia warns Moldovan authorities against using energy crisis for the forceful settlement of the Transnistrian issue
▪️Moscow will retaliate appropriately against any provocations by Chisinau against Russian citizens in Transnistria to ensure their safety
▪️Russia-Armenia relations go through a difficult period due to Western pressure on Yerevan
▪️Moscow honors its obligations under agreements with Tokyo on energy, does not interfere with Japanese businesses, projects on Sakhalin
▪️Amid Japan’s unfriendly policies, Russia sees no reason to engage in peace treaty talks with Japan
On other topical political issues:
▪️The people of Greenland should decide the fate of the island without external interference
▪️Russia considers the treaty with North Korea an effective deterrent against external aggression against Pyongyang
So don't be deceived by the good decisions taken by Trump in internal affairs. What matter the most is still foreign policy. The only thing that might lead to believe that this analysis and its conclusions are completely out of the table is a new sort of Yalta conference with Putin, Trump, Xi Jinping and their entourages as participants that's going to prevent WWIII by dividing the world into three monolithic/sacred spheres of influence + neutral states that the other sides won't challenge or won't try to seize. This conference might lead to a status quo that could last for centuries + is going to allow different forms of governments and the preservation of different cultures and traditions.
If this event won't take place within the end of 2025 a worldwide military confrontation is inevitable within the next 10 years and US expansionism will speed up the process as part of globalists' idea to return as saviours a few days after the conflagration.
@eurasianchoice
The likeliest explanation on why the deep state allows Trump to do things that would have been unthinkable till few months ago.
Sorry to break it to you all delusionals out there but no, the deep state has not surrendered without fighting, it has just decided to adopt a new long term strategy given the short term strategy, which was the implementation a liberal totalitarian one world govt with peaceful means (color revolutions, corruption, soft power and restrictions on basic freedom like during the fake pandemic) was not achieved.
The new long term strategy gives Trump free reign in internal affairs, so he can give back some freedoms to Americans in order to deceive them again into believing some sort of democracy exists and they can calm down while he's propping up an extremist, expansionist agenda, in international affairs, that will lead to the largest war in history of humanity which will be stopped by the globalists who will resurrect as peacemakers and will be able to impose their liberal totalitarian world government as the best solution a starved to death humanity will be eager to accept.
If this analysis is correct then the Trump era will be remembered just like the pre WWI/WWII period but instead of leading to the UN which was a useless, dysfunctional form of global governance, it will lead to a global liberal dictatorship where 99,9% of those who survived the war, probably between 500 million and 1 billion people, will be a slave class.

🔍💊Journalists caught Finnish MPs using drugs
Finnish MPs were caught using drugs by journalists who took samples in parliament toilets after a Christmas party.
🔬Tests, which took 3 weeks, showed traces of amphetamine, cocaine and MDMA, better known as “ecstasy.”
‼️🇷🇺🇺🇸Russia is not afraid of Trump's threats of "super sanctions" and is ready to fight for at least another year, building on its successes at the front.
Moscow believes that it is successfully resisting sanctions and is able to withstand at least another year of conflict.
At the same time, Russia has an advantage on the front, moving towards important logistics centers in Ukraine.
"...the situation is not so acute as to require the cessation of all hostilities… We are able to insist on our demands... and if Ukraine's defense continues to crumble as it is now, it would be more reasonable for the other side to agree to our terms," said HSE expert V. Kashin.
Therefore, Trump's statements "seem to be too few to force Russia to change its basic demands." The Kremlin is more inclined to view the threats of the US president as "posturing before negotiations."
