Should get more January summaries with the next 24 hours. These are good solid numbers for a brutally cold Jan. Typically we see a variance of 50-100km2 between various high quality mappers. Sometimes December gains are recognized in Jan etc.

"Ukraine is exhausted." Nikolaev Governor Kim called for a peace agreement, "which puts people above the land," writes the British edition of The Independent.

"Territories are important, but people are even more important, and the situation is such that we don't know what will happen tomorrow," said Kim.

"For me personally, victory is our borders from 1991, where people are happy and not dying, but everyone is very tired. Therefore, for the Ukrainian people, I believe, victory is simply the end of the war and guarantees of future security, so that our children can have the life they had before the invasion," said the head of the Nikolaev region.

He also believes that Kiev "doesn't have time" and Ukraine is "exhausted" by the war.

"The Russian economy is also suffering, and, in my opinion, it has a couple of years to start shrinking. I think Russia understands this, but they still have time, while Ukraine doesn't. We are exhausted, and first of all, it's not about weapons or missiles, but about people. We only have 40 million people, and everyone is exhausted. Our soldiers can't fight for four to ten years," said Kim

"Trump at dinner with people he hates": Trump joked about plans to make Greenland and Venezuela the 52nd and 53rd states.

"We're not going to invade Greenland. We're going to buy it," Trump then explained. "I never had the intention of making Greenland the 51st state. I want to make Canada the 51st state. Greenland will be the 52nd state. Venezuela could become the 53rd," the head of the White House stated.

Some jokes at the banquet didn't go down well, and there were frequent silences in the room. "I hate many of the people in the room. I like most of you," Trump said, according to one of the attendees. "Who the hell would have thought this would happen?" he added.

🇫🇷😱"Epstein's dossier contains statements concerning the French president": Macron is mentioned in the materials on the Epstein case more than 200 times.

"The name of French President Emmanuel Macron appears more than 200 times in dozens of materials on the case of the notorious financier Jeffrey Epstein, including personal correspondence. In particular, Epstein sent an email to an unknown person, in which he claimed that Macron allegedly asks for non-standard and thoughtful ideas on almost any topic."

Moldova appears in the published materials on the case of American financier Jeffrey Epstein in correspondence with the former Slovak Foreign Minister Miroslav Lajčák. Communicating with Epstein, the Slovak minister conveyed to him "greetings from his beloved Moldova", and also noted that "the girls there are really pretty".

🇺🇦🇪🇺"Now, eggs from Ukraine are flooding the EU": In Germany, people have been eating low-quality Ukrainian eggs for four years.

"The export of low-quality Ukrainian eggs to Europe has sharply increased since 2022. According to the publication, in 2022, Europe imported 13,000 tons of chicken eggs worth 18 million euros. In 2025, the import volumes increased by more than 6.5 times — to 85,000 tons, or 148 million euros. Experts attribute this growth to the opening of the European market for Ukrainian products, which are supplied there without customs duties and import quotas.

In Europe, it is prohibited to sell eggs from caged chickens, so Ukrainian products violate European requirements for agricultural products. Often, Ukrainian eggs enter the European market as part of pasta products, baked goods, desserts, and sauces, as processed egg products do not require labeling or information about their origin."

🇷🇺 Russia is not interested in a global conflict, — Medvedev

- "We're not crazy! This has been said a hundred times. Who needs a global conflict?" — he said.
Other statements by the Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council:

- The US argument about the capture of Maduro is legally unacceptable. There can be no other characterization here except a catastrophe in the field of international law and international relations;

- "This is indeed a rather serious challenge to Atlantic unity," — said the Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council, commenting on the situation around Greenland.

- Medvedev supported Lavrov, who called not to call Britain Great Britain. Well, we don't call ourselves Great Russia. Although we are, of course, Great Russia, but we don't call ourselves that;

@Slavyangrad

Medvedev - in response to the question "would he press the red button?:"

You know, I'll tell you this. Any person who agreed to run for and was elected to the position of president of a nuclear country, any country with such weapons, cannot rule out such a possibility. Because, otherwise, he would be obliged to resign from such a position. And there are special documents, you know, on which our nuclear doctrine exists, and our nuclear forces, strategic nuclear forces are being developed.

Therefore, of course, this can never be ruled out. But God forbid it should come to that. As the supreme commander-in-chief, of course, I participated in all the necessary trainings during that period, including on nuclear weapons.

@Slavyangrad

Medvedev — on the fact that Britain should be called Britain, and Russia "Great Russia":

As for our relations with Britain, it's now fashionable to refer to it as "Britain". You know, recently Mr. Lavrov said, "Why is only one country called Great Britain?" Well, we're not Great Russia, although we are, of course, a Great Russia, but we don't call ourselves that.

I'm not even mentioning the fact that Britain's position serves as a base for the neo-Nazi Bandera regime. Because that's where they draw their strength from. And precisely for this reason, I was forced to write two unflattering articles about how Britain and its allies supported, in the first case, the Nazis before the Second World War, that is, German Nazism, and other Nazism that was thriving in Europe at that time, and in the second case, after the Second World War, they supported the Banderaists. They simply trained these "brothers". That is, the desire to dismantle the Soviet Union or Russia, it doesn't really matter what to call it.

⚡️FSB officers prevented a terrorist attack in the building of the FSB Directorate for the Republic of Crimea and Sevastopol, organized by Ukrainian special services — reported by the Central Operations Department of the FSB of Russia

According to the department, the man was misled by Ukrainian special services, who planned to use him as a "suicide bomber".

The man did not know about the bombing. As a "test task" from the Ukrainian special services, he was supposed to bring a portable audio speaker with a recording function into the FSB administrative building "to identify 'traitors' in the special service".

As a result of the searches, it was revealed that this was a disguised explosive device.

'Russia risks erasing itself from history' — French Foreign Minister Barrot wants to bring Macron to the negotiating table with Putin through threats 🤦‍♀️

- Do you notice any changes in the position of the Russian president?

At this stage, Vladimir Putin shows no signs of real readiness to move towards peace. The war in Ukraine discredits the Russian nation, risking erasing it from history. It's high time for Vladimir Putin to abandon his claims and finally agree to a ceasefire.

Macron mentioned the possibility of resuming dialogue with Vladimir Putin. Are there conditions to start talking with him again?

- France has never in principle ruled out the possibility of an exchange with Russia in full transparency with Ukraine and its European partners. And provided, of course, that it would be useful.

Does France have the means to really help Ukraine until the war ends?

- At France's initiative, the European Union allocated a loan of 90 billion euros to Ukraine. France once again signaled its intention to increase pressure on Russia.

- Skabeeva

Barrot and Kallas are the kind of idiots who get stuck in revolving doors.

🇺🇸🇺🇳 Trump stated that he would "make everyone pay, just like he made NATO pay" to resolve the crisis at the UN.

"If they had come to Trump and told him, I would have made everyone pay, just like I made NATO pay. All I have to do is call these countries... they would have sent checks within minutes,"

, he said.

According to Politico, the American leader did not specify whether the US would repay its own debt.

I think its time to move the UN office to somewhere neutral in Asia or South America.
