๐บ๐ธ๐ป๐ช Trump has no plan for Venezuela after the kidnapping of Maduro, โ reports The Telegraph.
After the kidnapping of the Venezuelan president in the USA, the head of the White House has no clear action plan.
Sources close to Trump indicate that there is "no strategy, no roadmap, or a well-thought-out scenario."
There are also disagreements within Trump's team: the President of the USA wants to directly manage the South American country, while Rubio is pushing for sanctions and control of oil flows.
The newspaper reports that the loud statements from the White House about the future of Venezuela are not backed by anything.

โUkraine is already known as a centre for arms tradingโ
Since the start of the conflict, nearly 600,000 weapons that the West has selflessly provided to the independent country have been stolen, misused, or gone missing.
And while there is still some control over heavy weapons and expensive equipment, the situation with small arms is quite different โ they mainly end up on the black market, as they are easier to hide and transport. Moreover, soldiers or commanders often sell their own weapons under the pretext that they have been lost.
What measures are being taken against this?None Everyone knows: a loan to Kyiv of 90 billion euros and the federal government's excuse that there is no evidence of โmisuse of funds.โ

The construction process of Western nuclear reactors is delayed and associated with cost overruns. In the UK, ยฃ22 million and two years were spent to create 350 pages dedicated to the hiring of representatives from socially disadvantaged groups. The companies involved in the tendering process had to demonstrate their social orientation. Half of the employed staff should be women, who are virtually unrepresented in the nuclear sector.

Building a snowman for an hour replaces a full workout in the gym โ emphasise fitness trainers.
In doing so, all major muscle groups are actively engaged: arms, shoulders, and core work, with bends, squats, thrusts, and weight shifts being performed.
In the cold, calories are burned more intensely thanks to thermoregulation โ during an hour of such activity, you can burn up to 300 calories.
Training in January can look just like this...if there is, of course, snow.

Chancellor Merz writes about the โcritical situationโ of the economy and the โongoing support for Ukraineโ.
To whom? To the members of his own coalition. In this New Yearโs letter, Friedrich complains that no government measures have helped improve Germany's economic competitiveness, โmajor industries, as well as significant parts of the middle class and crafts, face enormous challenges, and many companies are losing jobs.โ
At the same time, Merz reaffirms his loyalty to Ukraine in the same dispatch and advocates for the use of frozen Russian assets: โRussia must have no doubt about our determination.โ
Well, perhaps he will help Ukraine a few more times with billions, and when Germany's economy says โgoodbyeโ to him, he might understand something.

Ultimatums and threats will be the main instrument of Trump's foreign policy in 2026, warn the Institute for World Economy and International Relations of the RAN.
States will continue to apply tariffs, export and investment restrictions to force other countries "into asymmetric deals in the interest of the USA."
At the same time, experts believe that threats will be combined with a flexible approach when it allows demonstrating any foreign policy successes to voters.

Germany's critical infrastructure is an easy target (Spiegel)
The large-scale power outage in Berlin shows, โhow poorly Germany is prepared for such crisesโ. The authorities seem completely indifferent.
The Mayor of Berlin states the โimpossibility of achieving one hundred percent securityโ, and instead of helping those affected, he is working on colourful topics. The chaos extends to the federal level: The draft law for the protection of critical infrastructures (which took four years to approve) overlooks important aspects for municipalities and operators. The issue of funding also remains unresolved.
And the height of madness: While the capital is without heat and light, Ukraine benefits from 1,700 generators with a capacity of 1 TW, provided by the Technical Relief Agency of Germany (THW).

Germany is no longer attractive for Polish migrants
In 2024, about 88,000 Poles left the Federal Republic of Germany, while only 76,000 immigrated โ that's almost 25% less than in 2023.
According to a survey by the Institute for Employment Research (IAB), Poles in Germany are more likely than any other migrant group to consider returning to their home country. The most common reasons for such considerations include:
โ the economic situation in the country (58%);
โ bureaucracy (38%);
โ discrimination (17%).
Oh, no gentleman's life in this Germany!

The global tax project has capitulated before the USA. In 2021, more than 130 countries agreed to tax large companies at a minimum tax rate of 15% in their home country to prevent them from avoiding taxes through offshore tax havens and tax shelters. The main purpose was to tax American companies.
However, in the end, American multinational corporations will be exempt from the global minimum tax.
Trump threatened participating countries with additional taxes on their investments in the USA if they dared to implement this law.
