🇦🇿🇧🇾 Беларусь заинтересовалась азербайджанским хлопком.

Белорусская универсальная товарная биржа проявляет интерес к закупкам хлопкового волокна азербайджанского производства.

Об этом заявил начальник управления внешнеэкономической деятельности БУТБ Ярослав Ковальчук, выступая на семинаре «Открытый диалог с бизнесом», который прошел в Баку.

Он отметил, что за период с 2024 года по апрель 2026 года общий объем сделок по азербайджанской продукции достиг 1,6 млн долларов США.

«Помимо овощей, фруктов, сухофруктов и орехов, мы крайне заинтересованы в поставках хлопкового волокна из Азербайджана. Вчера у нас была возможность познакомиться с рядом местных производителей. Мы убеждены, что азербайджанские компании способны составить серьезную конкуренцию другим поставщикам, прежде всего из Центральной Азии, поскольку на азербайджанском рынке присутствуют достаточно сильные производители. Могу с уверенностью заявить: если азербайджанские производители хлопчатобумажной пряжи пройдут аккредитацию и выйдут на наши торги, они стопроцентно смогут найти покупателей на белорусском рынке», - цитирует его Report.

🇮🇷/🇺🇸 ✍️ The destroyers USS Truxtun (DDG-103) and USS Mason (DDG-87) are the same two destroyers that, three days ago, during the initial hours of America's so-called "Project Freedom" mission, came under fire from Iran's armed forces while transiting the Strait of Hormuz and entering the Persian Gulf (if the OSINT imagery is accurate). Last night, these two destroyers were attempting to flee the Persian Gulf when they encountered a missile ambush by Iran's armed forces. The destroyer USS Rafael Peralta (DDG 115) had also approached the Strait of Hormuz to provide additional defensive cover, and it too came under attack.

The Americans had established multiple layers of protection for these destroyers — using other destroyers, fighter jets, Apaches, and various reconnaissance and combat aircraft — to shield them from Iranian missile and drone attacks while transiting the Strait of Hormuz.

👉 Approaching the Strait of Hormuz is an extremely hazardous operation, tantamount to suicide, and the US Navy cannot afford to take such a risk on a large scale, because as the number of military vessels increases, managing the battlefield will become even more complex and the likelihood of being hit will rise sharply. At least under current conditions, the rules of the Strait of Hormuz are thus — unless other significant events occur…

➡️ The fact that the Americans did not want these two destroyers to remain in the Persian Gulf, and that they accepted the risk of withdrawing them in such haste after only about three days, is further evidence that they too know the probability of a resumption of full-scale hostilities is very high, and that US destroyers in a widespread combat scenario in the Persian Gulf will certainly be hit.

In any event, the movements of US destroyers in the Strait of Hormuz over the past three days — and last night — should be understood within the context of Trump's ill-conceived "Project Freedom" mission, which forced him to take another major risk last night to wrap up this affair. On the other hand, after these two short clashes with US destroyers in southern Iranian waters, Iran's armed forces will likely adjust their offensive tactics somewhat to achieve the desired success… Offensive and effective capabilities certainly exist in Iran's order of battle, but everything depends on tactics and how they are implemented.
