โšกMissing Titanic sub search continues as banging sounds heard.

Sonar picked up banging sounds Tuesday during the search, indicating "continued hope of survivors," according to an internal ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ US government memo.

With the vessel's air supplies dwindling, the US Coast Guard said underwater noises were detected by a ๐Ÿ Canadian P-3 aircraft, prompting the relocation of resources to explore their origin, but "searches have yielded negative results."

โšก๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ Ukraine's "main strike is still ahead," deputy defense minister says.

Ukraine's Deputy Minister of Defense said on Tuesday that Ukrainian forces "are gnawing our way meter by meter" to advance, also noting that the main strike of the counteroffensive "is still ahead."

"There are some directions, where we advance and the enemy is on defensive, but also on some axis, the enemy is trying to conduct offensive, while we are on defensive. We gradually advance step by step. So one can say we are gnawing our way meter by meter," Deputy Defense Minister Hanna Maliar said in an interview with ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ Ukrainian media.

"The tasks that are being given to the military are being fulfilled, so the gradual advance in all directions, where the offensive began is taking place," Maliar said. "However, the main strike is still ahead."

don't be dull , Kaliningrad dont have any boundary with Russia but today it belongs to Russia. Falkland is far away in Argentina coast but it belongs to Britain. Hawaii island is mostly occupied by Asia but it belongs. as per international law , Japan handed over the Taiwan island to USA not china. so inversely its USA territory. and USA has said it will defend the territory if ever china tries to invade it. go and read history.

1) Kaliningrad is a part of Russia, how can a part of Russia have boundaries with Russia?
2) Taiwan was a part of China then a civil war took place in China, the PRC defeated the RC on mainland China and the RC retreated to Taiwan, that is how Taiwan and mainland China got seperated. It has nothing to do with the USA or japan.
3) the UN, the USA and most countries on earth recognise Taiwan as a part of China, but the USA is being strategically hypocritical by trying to "encourage" Taiwan to declare independence from China and become an official USA colony.

Kaliningrad used to be called Kรถnigsberg, who was a very important German city, and it was given back it was given to the Soviet Union at the end of the World War II, at the Potsdam Conference. So the Soviet Union administered it and named it Kaliningrad in 1946, and so it was really just part of the Soviet Union .

This is why America started respecting herself and just realised how stupid she has been.

The Americans are deeply delusional. They will not stop.

They'll soon start openly discussing bringing regime change and democracy to Cuba to combat the Chinese presence. They are as fanatic as the Jihadists.

The Americans can only be beaten back. That's the only language they understand. You don't just give them a bloody nose. You have to hospitalize them. Vietnam. Afghanistan. Ukraine. It'd be the same in Taiwan. There'd need to be barbecued Americans, whether they are SOPs or regular grunts, before they'd give up.

The goal with a hot confict in Taiwan as it is in Ukraine will be to kill as many Chinese as possible and force Pacific allies to move closer into America's orbit. Jokes on them tho, the Taiwanese are not poor vermins who you'd dangle carrots and ask them to commit suicide. I expect the Afghanistan debacle to repeat. Taiwanese leaders will negotiate a last minute deal for strategic autonomy (similar to Macau or better) and hand over all the shiny tech they've acquired to the tune of hundreds of billions to the PLA.

The major concern for them will be the more than $550 billion dollars they have in foreign reserves that may be pillaged and the private assets their power brokers own in the West. Although China has leverage to get the West to return the colossal sum.

Putin understands this. Which is why he moved into Ukraine. It is why Xi gave marching orders.

Anyone who believes the West will give up their two millennia dominance diplomatically or through non-violent means underestimates their resolve. They'll kill millions through wars, unrest, economic deprivation, and anything else to delay (and as they falsely hope, truncate) the rise of the Global South.

โšก๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ฐ Pakistan and China signed a $4.8 billion deal on Tuesday to build a 1,200-megawatt nuclear power plant, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif said, hailing the investment by a country that Pakistan views as its most dependable ally.

Work on the Chashma 5 project would begin immediately, Sharif said on state-run news channel PTV following the signing of the memorandum of understanding between China National Nuclear Cooperation and Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission.

โ€œInvestment from ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ณ China in this project to the tune of $4.8 billion sends a message loud and clear that Pakistan is a place where Chinese companies and investors continue to show their trust and faith,โ€ Sharif said.

The Chashma 5 project will be built in the central province of Punjab. Chinaโ€™s support will help Pakistan make the transition away from reliance on fossil fuels.

โšก๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ Putin announces new Sarmat intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBM) will soon be ready for deployment.

Sarmat ICBM weighs 100 tonnes (for comparison, the ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ US-made LGM-30 Minuteman is 35 tonnes) with a range of 18,000km.

This allows it to carry around 15 warheads, up to 750kt. (The bomb US dropped on Hiroshima was 15kt.) This would be enough to wipe out a country the size of France. It can also carry hypersonic missiles, rendering most missile defence systems ineffective.
