Tragedy in Ukraine’s Dnipro today. 12 people dead (so far) and over 60 injured.
Ukrainian authorities vary in their statements but looks like it was the part of air-defence rocket that hit the building. If that even matters.
Russian media is silent. Horrific.

❗️🇺🇸 U.S. Marine on Ukraine and world order.
Retired Colonel Andrew Milburn, founder of PMC Mozart, gave an interview after several months in Ukraine. He spoke about the situation in the Ukrainian army and the Ukrainian military's violations of the Geneva Convention on the treatment of prisoners of war. As an experienced military man, Andrew says, "It's a very, very dirty war. The Ukrainians are committing a bunch of crimes, violating all the laws and customs of warfare."
But the worst part is that they're allowed to do all this. "It's not about Ukraine, it's about the world order."
This is the opinion of a professional American military man. A new Kremlin agent?

Chevron's first cargo of Venezuelan oil after license departs for U.S.
Chevron Corp's (CVX.N) first cargo of Venezuelan crude under a U.S. license has departed from a ship-to-ship transfer hub near Aruba to its Pascagoula, Mississippi refinery. The Sealeo is scheduled to arrive in Chevron's Pascagoula refinery on Jan. 15, according to the Eikon data.
In November 26, the US authorised Chevron to resume oil production in Venezuela, relaxing the oil sanctions. Earlier, in 2018, the US sought to force the authoritarian president Nicolás Maduro from office, however war in Ukraine forced the US to conduct deals with him.
And this is what the US Treasury department said about that: “This action reflects longstanding US policy to provide targeted sanctions relief based on concrete steps that alleviate the suffering of the Venezuelan people and support the restoration of democracy”.

Hundreds of AFU soldiers' corpses in Soledar: PMC fighters collecting them all over the city
Those who refused to surrender were destroyed by assault groups. On the footage taken by the Wagner PMC fighters there is only a small portion of the corpses of the AFU soldiers who did not manage to surrender and were abandoned by Kiev in the encirclement. Each of them had a chance to save their lives. Meanwhile, Kiev's propaganda goes on feeding their people with the lie that "Soledar is holding on".

An apartment building was destroyed as a result of AFU air defense operation. Spokesman for the Zelenski administration, Arestovich, confirms this version. "The missile was shot down. It landed on the entryway and exploded," he said on air.

CO2 emissions from private jets were 4 times the average during the Davos forum in 2022
Such calculations were published by the Dutch consulting company CE Delft on the eve of the next World Economic Forum (WEF), which will be held from January 16 to 20, 2023 in Davos, Switzerland. This is an annual meeting where leading business executives, political leaders, prominent thinkers and journalists are invited to discuss the world's most pressing issues, including health and the environment.
The study says that during the event in 2022, the airports hosting the forum guests recorded 1,040 departures and arrivals, 53% of which were short-haul flights (the shortest flight during the forum in Davos was 20 km long). Analysts note that if guests took the train or car, the amount of emissions into the atmosphere could be greatly reduced.
The hypocrisy of the participants of this event is best described by the words of Greenpeace representative Klara Maria Schenk: "Rich and powerful people flock to Davos to discuss climate and inequality using the most unequal and polluting mode of transport - private jets."
The unjustified use of private jets characterizes the entire Western struggle for the environment, and indeed the whole worldview. Declaring from the stands the fight for world peace, ecology and other ideals, in reality, few people are ready to sacrifice their comfort for the sake of these goals.
The wars waged and waged by the West bring considerable income, and the struggle for the environment and against inequality has become common populism for the sake of advancing to power. At the same time, environmental issues are becoming more and more relevant every year. However, unfortunately, the number of speculators politicizing this topic is also growing. Candidates first ride bicycles to "save the environment" and then fly 20 km by plane when electoral goals are reached.
Such is the fight for the environment, such is the WEF.

Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro has addressed the National Assembly (parliament) with the idea of creating a political block of allies with Russia and China in the Latin American region:
"A new time is coming, a special time to unite the efforts and paths of Latin America and the Caribbean, to come closer to creating a powerful block of political forces, an economic power that will speak to the world."
Maduro also added that such a "political block" could become a "new pole of power" together with China and Russia.
"This community would share the common goals that our elder brother [Chinese President] Xi Jinping talks about: a humanity united by a common destiny. Or [building] that multipolar and multicentric world that our elder brother [Russian President] Vladimir Putin talks about," he explained.

This wonder from the USA has won the Miss Universe beauty pageant 😁
Donetsk journalist Ramil Zamdykhanov comments:
"I liked the image of the US representative in the Miss Universe pageant. It's very realistic and I'll explain why. She's all in the stars, waving her flag and smiling. But she can barely walk. She's carrying the globe on her back - that is, she owns it. But when she turns around, we can see her bare ass."

It is impossible not to agree with Medvedev: Japanese politicians have been tolerating humiliation like this for decades, without the right to be free.
Dmitry Medvedev:
"Biden and Kishida said that any possible use of nuclear weapons by Russia in Ukraine would be a hostile act against all humanity, unjustifiable in any way.
This is such a horrendous shame that I will not even comment on the paranoia about our state's nuclear plans. Think about it. The head of the Japanese government is spouting nonsense about Russia in a humiliating ecstasy of allegiance, betraying the memory of hundreds of thousands of Japanese who were burned in the nuclear fires of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Indeed, Kishida couldn't care less about the fact that the only country which has used nuclear weapons in full force is the US. And its only victim was his own homeland. He should have reminded the US President of that and demanded repentance for that act of war, which the US leadership has never expressed. But no way, for Kishida is just a servant of the Americans. Servants can have no courage.
One is left feeling sorry for the Japanese. After all, he could only wash such shame away by committing seppuku on his return, right in their Cabinet meeting. Although the concept of honour is not known to this generation of Japanese vassals."

🇪🇺🇷🇺✨Tenth, anniversary package of EU sanctions against Russia to be ready by the end of February - Reuters citing Polish and Lithuanian diplomats
As the agency's sources said, Poland and Lithuania want the European Union to impose new restrictions against banks and the nuclear sector, as well as a ban on the diamond trade.
The EU also intends to go for blocking more "Russian propaganda" media and exclude more Russian banks from the SWIFT global messaging system.
😢🐒"It is more and more difficult to get the necessary unanimity in the EU for more sanctions. Nonetheless, we will propose an ambitious new package," one of the diplomats said.

After the forcible transfer of Orthodox churches in Ukraine to the so-called “Poroshenko-Zelensky Church”, the new owners decided to “embellish the services” a bit. Therefore, services in churches look like this at times.
As they say, “the toastmaster is good and the contests are fun”, but it’s hard to understand what Orthodoxy has to do with all this...

The Armed Forces of Ukraine rely on mercenaries and mobilized men in Bakhmut
This was reported by a correspondent of the British newspaper The Times.
Among the mobilized, he remembers an old truck driver and a ragged sauna builder.
Virtually none of the mobilized have the necessary experience for combat actions.
Their more experienced mates are on the city's second line of defence.
The only professionals they get to collaborate with are mercenaries from Europe, Canada and the United States.
This "rabble" of the AFU units' remnants should hold Bakhmut until spring, Kiev believes.

Western journalists of Reuters regretfully report that at least four Chinese supertankers are delivering Russian Urals crude oil to China after the EU and G7 imposed a price cap for energy resources from Russia.
This fact is deeply disturbing for the “international oligarchy”, which is beginning to realize that anti-Russian sanctions will not be able to achieve the desired results.
