⚔"With temperatures hitting minus 20C, Kyiv’s energy system, weakened by months of Russian aerial attacks, is teetering under the strain of rising winter demand, heavy bombardment and a growing shortage of air defense munitions.

'The combination of extreme cold and wave after wave of Russian attacks are pushing Ukraine’s energy system to the edge,' Maxim Timchenko, chief executive of DTEK, Ukraine’s largest private energy company, told the FT.

"We are facing an unprecedented threat and fighting for every megawatt.'

⚔The Secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, Ali Larijani, received the Iraqi Foreign Minister, Fouad Hussein.

During his visit to Tehran, they will discuss bilateral relations between the two countries, as well as regional issues (including the escalating situation in Syria). Mr. Hussein is also meeting with the Iranian President and his Iranian counterpart as part of an official visit.

Holiness2100:
At last, the true history of the Palestinian people has been uncovered.

Declassified U.S. State Department telegram quoting an Arab League meeting in Lebanon in August 1960, when Arab states decided to create a "Palestinian entity" aimed at undermining Israel through UN manipulation & military action.


With the help of the Soviets, this resulted in the 1964 founding of the PLO, as a tool for collective Arab action against Israel, consistent with Russia's efforts to counter Israel's alliance with the West.

Arab-Soviet alliances during the Cold War shaped modern Palestinian nationalism primarily as an anti-Israel strategy rather than an indigenous pre-1948 movement.

(Steven Phillips on X)
You can’t change history. European Jews came in as refugees and they were the first terrorist in Palestine.

⚔The EU is preparing €93bn in tariffs and possible limits on US companies’ access to the EU market to counter Trump’s threats over Greenland.

The measures are meant as leverage ahead of talks with Trump at the World Economic Forum in Davos.

https://www.france24.com/en/europe/20260118-macron-wants-eu-anti-coercion-instrument-against-trump-tariffs-greenland

French President Emmanuel Macron will ask the EU to activate its "anti-coercion" measure – dubbed its trade ā€œbazookaā€ – for the first time ever if US President Donald Trump follows through with threats to impose new tariffs on European countries for opposing his plans for Greenland. An extraordinary meeting of EU ambassadors has been called for Sunday afternoon in Brussels.

The bloc's weapon – never-before used and dubbed its trade "bazooka" – allows for curbing imports of goods and services. It has been invoked as a possible way to push back over tech and trade, and now the Danish territory US President Donald Trump wants to acquire.


The key word is curbing of services šŸ‘Š. They are coming for the tech giants, it’s all over if this goes through. It was nice watching another episode of taco.

⚔General Commander of the YPG Sipan Hamo:

We do not seek separation, and our future lies within Syria.

We have not received support from Iran or Russia, and we call on the US to provide guarantees to protect the Kurds amid the ongoing changes.

Israel is a powerful state in the region, and we hope that the stance it has taken to protect the Druze will also be extended to include the Kurds. "

The Kurds are suffering the inevitable fate of all US proxies, abandonment.

That's right.

The test is a veiled warning to hothead Trump. The Iranians now has an ICBM ranging 10,000-12,000 km capable of striking the US mainland.

Gerrard59:
Except these people are not putting up a public posturing considering their shared histories and belligerence towards China and Russia, the EU cannot do anything if the Trump-led administration decides to take over Greenland.

If Trump is damn serious about taking Greenland, he would do it, and nothing would happen. What is good for Venezuela is also good for Greenland.
The chances of Trump taking Greenland by force is very slim.

If it happens, and I pray it happens, it would effectively kill NATO as a military alliance.

The real winners will be Russia and China.

⚔Iran used the Russian Tobol electronic warfare system to neutralize the Starlink network, which is used by terrorists supported by Israel and the US. This technology has previously been tested in combat conditions in Ukraine.

The Tobol fixed complex works by analyzing and tracking Starlink satellites, then flooding them with a stronger, "contaminated" signal, creating destructive radio noise. This system is a tool for denying access to areas, and when combined with sophisticated jamming devices like the Tiradā-2, it poses a multi-layered threat.

When integrated with other intelligence systems, it can pinpoint the locations of Starlink stations, turning satellite internet from a secure feature into a detectable vulnerability.
From Russia with love.

Meanwhile, in Syria, the US abandoned their allies, the Kurds from the SDF.
The new Syrian government, essentially former militants, occupied the Aleppo region, the Deir ez-Zor province, and are now occupying Raqqa.

Tribes have sided with the government, or rather with Julani. The SDF are retreating to Kurdish lands, and the US is not intervening.

The problem is that USA can’t bomb Syria government because they are the one supporting them from day one.
Russia warned them but they failed to listen and believe USA will protect them from Turkey grin and the fact that Russia military is still present in Syria, shows that Russia was right from day one
