⚡China sends its third aircraft carrier Fujian for sea trials.

— Named after China's Fujian province, the carrier was officially launched in June 2022 and was undergoing fitting out as of January 2024.

— Fujian is expected to have a displacement of around 80,000 tonnes, making it larger than China's previous carriers, the Liaoning and Shandong.

— Fujian's advanced features, including electromagnetic catapults and a larger airwing capacity, significantly enhance China's naval capabilities, enabling it to project power more effectively in the Indian and Pacific Oceans

US aid can’t buy troops: Ukrainian soldier says ‘no one’ willing to join army

A Ukrainian soldier from the notorious Azov battalion offered a frank analysis of the country’s war effort to a local news outlet this weekend.

“No one is willing to join the Armed Forces of Ukraine nowadays,” said the soldier, identified as “Niko,” to a local news outlet. The soldier continues to fight on despite having lost one of his legs in combat, insisting that there is no one to replace him.


A shortage of personnel has wreaked havoc in the country’s armed forces in recent months, with fatigue contributing to a breakdown in discipline and effectiveness as troops are unable to be rotated. The dynamic was on display recently as Russia was able to liberate a village in the Donetsk People’s Republic reportedly almost unopposed.

The soldier added that “literally no one” is willing to go to Ukraine’s front lines. It has emerged in recent weeks that multiple Ukrainian troops have refused to take orders from the country’s new commander-in-chief Oleksandr Syrsky, who is viewed less favorably than former military head Valerii Zaluzhny.

⚡BBC reporter to US Secretary of State Blinken:

There's catastrophic loss of life in Gaza. In China, where you are visiting now, the US is described as hypocritical.

You ask China to stop sending Russia not even weapons, but components that can be used to make weapons, but you continue to send weapons to Israel.

This erodes the credibility of the US. Not only here in China but all over the world. What do you say?

⚡Russian mercenaries are in "hot pursuit" of the notorious warlord Joseph Kony, after a bloody near-capture in a remote corner of the Central African Republic earlier this month, sources tell Rolling Stone.

Joseph Kony is the leader of the Lord's Resistance Army, basically, the Christian version of Boko Haram.

But see how the media tags him as a warlord. If he were Muslim, they'd have started calling him Islamist and terrorist.

⚡In 2020, Turkey tested its first Russian-made S-400 Triumph systems on F-22 Raptor and F-35 Lightning II fighters.

The test results were not disclosed, but judging by the lack of complaints, it can be assumed that the country is completely satisfied with the systems.

The two batteries of Russian-made S-400 air defense systems are deployed at the Myurt airbase. They were tested at least three times on American stealth fighters. AviaPro news agency indicates that not only F-35 aircraft, but also more classified F-22s appeared in the detection range of systems.


The “targeted” American fifth-generation fighters were sent to rotation in the Middle East through the Black Sea and directly Turkey. Their route ran approximately 170-200 kilometers from the Turkish Air Force Airbase of Myurt. Therefore, the Turkish side had a great opportunity to test its S-400s for aerodynamic purposes.

This was not the first test of Turkish S-400 over American fighter: in November 2019, video footage appeared showing the testing of the S-400’s radar on F-16s and F-4E Phantoms.

This just made me remember an argument that happened here about Turkey using US fighter jets with Russian AD systems

Maybe you should goan read his reforms.

cutting off government expenditure by cutting the size of government and wastages;
blocked stealing of government funds, and attracted Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) through concessions, tax holidays, and improved ease of doing business.
Argentina runs a lean government by reducing the number of ministries, privatizing nearly 40 state-owned enterprises, and reducing wasteful spending.


Which of these can our politicians do? Rather their salary has remained the same some even increased while the masses are told to make sacrifices but the politicians can't make any sacrifices?

⚡Iranian Deputy Interior Minister Saeed Majid Ahmadi announced that a sum equivalent to 3 billion euros has been allocated to the General Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces to block Iran's borders.

The sharp increase in funding is almost guaranteed to be linked to the increasing attacks by militant groups on IRGC positions, particularly in the troubled province of Sistan and Balochistan.

In the last couple of months alone, the militants of the so-called Baloch group Jaish ul-Adl have carried out more than a dozen attacks in various populated areas. And they are using uncontrolled parts of the borders with Pakistan for hideouts.
