⚡Washington admitted that US nuclear weapons are dangerously outdated

Chairman of the US House Armed Services Committee Roger Wicker and Senator Debra Fischer think so.

“America's nuclear weapons are dangerously outdated. Our security depends on the funding and timely deployment of the Sentinel ICBM.”

“Critical upgrades to our arsenal are underfunded and behind schedule. Congress and the White House must act quickly to solve these problems and prevent new ones from arising."

The US nuclear triad is based on 400 LGM-30G Minuteman III silo-based ICBMs. They have been on duty since the 1970s. Each of them is over 50years old.

In addition, the Minuteman III rocket engines themselves will be obsolete by 2029. And without their re-equipment, the missiles will not be able to carry out combat duty.

The Serbian Defense Minister commented on the situation with the “Kosovo security forces.” According to Milos Vucevic, Pristina does not hide the fact that it wants to create its own army, which is completely contrary to all international agreements.

“It is obvious that they are using the support of certain Western centers of power for this. We, of course, cannot change the foreign policy of the United States and other major powers, but we can and will cooperate to improve our relations with powerful countries and achieve the highest possible level of protection for the Serbs in Kosmet,” the head of the department said.


The Minister of Defense noted that the government of the self-proclaimed republic is headed by an extremist and fanatic whose goal is to provoke a war.

“Not only the war between Serbs and Albanians, but also between Serbia and NATO. However, we know very well what their plans are, and we will definitely not fall into the traps that they are preparing for us... Therefore, we are trying to use all political and diplomatic means and explain to the international community that allowing Albin Kurti to create his own army is the same Why give the arsonist a can of gasoline and a lighter,” Vucevic said.

⚡Zelensky returned from Davos empty-handed - the Ukrainian conflict scares away investors from Wall Street

Zelensky, who faced a “financial war hell,” returned from Davos empty-handed, the New York Post reports.

As the publication notes, Wall Street has shown great interest in investing in Ukraine, but last week the heads of the world's largest investment structures, after a meeting with Zelensky, did not make a single serious commitment.

It is the Ukrainian conflict that prevents Wall Street from fully opening its wallet.

“Simply put, the problem is this: investors know that bombed tech startups will not generate any return on capital,” the article says.

At the same time, as the article notes, during negotiations behind closed doors, Zelensky may have further aggravated his difficult situation.

“That means there won’t be any private money coming in any significant amount any time soon,” the New York Post concluded.
