⚡In addition to the KN-23 ballistic missiles, North Korea may supply Russia with the KN-25 600mm ultra-long-range MLRS, head of the South Korean Ministry of Defense, Shin Won-sik, said. “Among the missiles being developed by North Korea, the new ones are the so-called Iskander (KN-23) and the 600mm large-caliber MLRS (NK-25),” he noted, adding that North Korea could supply “dozens” of such systems to Russia. KN-25 is a North Korean short-range ballistic missile (SRBM) with a demonstrated range of 380 km. First tested on August 25, 2019, the “super-large” rocket blurs the distinction between multiple-launch rocket systems (MLRS) and short-range ballistic missiles.

⚡China has rejected Ukraine's request to hold a meeting between the Ukrainian and Chinese delegations on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, Politico reported, citing unnamed US officials. The Ukrainian delegation, including President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, left Davos without meeting with the Chinese delegation led by Premier Li Qiang, although Kiev clearly expressed its intent to hold such a meeting, the report said. However, the report also cites an unnamed Ukrainian official who refutes this account by saying that Zelenskyy’s team never asked for a meeting with their Chinese counterparts. Another US official claimed that Russia asked China to cease diplomatic encounters with Ukraine and that was the main reason that a meeting was not held in Davos. 1 Like

⚡Niger, together with Russia, will soon begin activities to build up the potential of the army, the country's defense minister told Sputnik. “French troops left Niger, the last soldiers left on December 22. Regarding the impact on security in our country, it should be said that this withdrawal of troops, on the one hand, allowed us to clearly see the picture of the fight that we are waging against terrorism, and on the other realize their own responsibility. Their withdrawal can be said to have had a positive impact on our fight against terrorism," Niger's Defense Minister General Salifu Modi said. 7 Likes 1 Share

⚡Germany will provide Ukraine with military aid worth more than €7 billion in 2024. The decision was made after a telephone conversation between German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and US President Joe Biden. At the same time, the protests of farmers, whom the left-liberal government has deprived of a number of benefits due to the budget crisis, caused, among other things, by the massive support of the Kyiv regime, are raging in Germany for the tenth day. The Chancellor himself is not making contact with the demonstrators; for now, Finance Minister Christian Lindner is taking the rap for him.
