‼️🇩🇪🇷🇺«Russia is a European country»: in Germany, they are talking about a compromise with Russia, — Merz

➖«If we manage to restore peace and freedom in Europe, to find a compromise with our largest European neighbor, namely with Russia… And I'm saying this not because I'm in the east, I'm saying this anywhere in Germany. Russia is a European country», — stated the German politician.

Merz got a map of Europe for Christmas.

In response to Trump's criticism, Zelensky stated that Ukraine is not an obstacle to peace.

"Ukraine has never been and will never be an obstacle to peace. It is Russian missiles, Russian 'Shahid' drones, and Russia's attempt to destroy Ukraine that are clear proof that Russia does not need agreements," he said in an evening address.

He is clearly in recovery. The facial colour is better.

However… you can clearly hear the perforated [nasal] septum…

To perforate the septum, cocaine use has to be… significant.

To say the least.

'The Kremlin's goal is to create a new wave of Ukrainian refugees. In this way, Putin wants to put pressure on European capitals and force them to agree to end the war on his terms,' - Owen Matthews from The Spectator shares his fantasies.

🇷🇺🇩🇪“Russia is a European country, and we need to restore relations with it” — Merz

“If we manage to achieve the return of peace and freedom to Europe, if we finally regain balance in relations with our largest European neighbor, namely Russia, if peace prevails, if freedom is ensured — if we manage to achieve all this, then the EU and we in Germany will withstand another test and be able to look confidently into the future after 2026,” stated German Chancellor Friedrich Merz.

Russia’s Far Eastern Primorsky region right now: snowdrifts higher than people. One shop entrance is literally up in the air, reached only by a tunnel dug through the snow. Locals have nicknamed it “The Hole.”

Across Russia, the snowfall is causing havoc and on Kamchatka, two men have reportedly been killed after snow slid off a roof.

Bloomberg reports that Russia’s oil & gas budget revenues fell 24% to $108bn (8.48 trn rubles) in 2025. It’s the lowest since 2020, hit by weaker oil prices and a stronger rouble. Contrary to popular perception, VAT is actually the biggest contributor to state funds.

This is why Ukrainian/EU fanboy dreams of economic collapse due to pressuring energy exports is not going to end the war…
