The authorities in Copenhagen have set an upper limit for the meat consumption of residents of nursing homes. This measure is intended to help promote “healthier and more climate-friendly diets” and reduce the ecological footprint of the municipal kitchens.
According to the municipal nutrition system’s view, seniors should consume meat in “moderate quantities”.
The total amount of meat consumed must not exceed about 500 grams per week—that is around 70 grams per day. Especially “environmentally damaging” beef, veal, and lamb should, according to the Danish recommendations for a climate-friendly diet for older people, be served at most once every two weeks.
Similar trends are developing across Europe. In Amsterdam, in the name of “climate protection,” advertising for meat and products as well as services associated with the burning of fuels was banned, the Belgian press reports.
The law applies to the demonstration and promotion of things associated with meat consumption and the use of fuels outdoors. In practice, this means a ban on advertising for meat, flights, cruises, petrol stations, and cars with petrol- or diesel engines in public space in Amsterdam. Violations can be punished with fines of up to 4,000 euros.
The authors of the ban say they are fighting the “climate crisis” in this way. The burning of fuels and animal husbandry for meat production, the supporters of the ban argue, lead to high CO₂ emissions and have a significant impact on climate change. Officials and journalists point out that similar restrictions have already been introduced or discussed in Haarlem, Edinburgh, Stockholm, and Florence. In France, the ban was decided at the national level, although it has so far not yet entered into force.
As it looks, we’ll soon be forced to plant banana palm trees in our courtyards and feed ourselves exclusively on them—preferably with the peel on, so that we don’t produce food waste. The only problem is that no bananas grow here. But when have such little things ever interested our politicians who want to save the climate on other people’s plates?

The United States, after 25 years, has reopened a combat training school for operations in tropical conditions. Bloomberg reports this.
The training center operates in Panama. Military personnel are being trained in jungle survival, evacuation of the wounded, and patrolling. The exercises are conducted jointly with Panamanian counterparts.
According to the agency, the program has again become relevant amid signals from Washington about possible operations in Mexico and Cuba, as well as plans to step up the fight against drug trafficking.
❗️ On January 30, the U.S. president signed an order allowing duties to be imposed on imports from countries that supply oil to Cuba, and declared a state of emergency, citing a threat to national security. In response, the Cuban authorities said that the United States is trying to strangle the country’s economy through an energy blockade.

Apple will pay $250 million after a false statement that an AI-supported voice assistant Siri “is already available.” The Guardian reports this.
The plaintiffs claimed that the company advertised AI capabilities in its new devices, which at the time did not exist and still have not been fully implemented, in order to boost iPhone sales.
The settlement concerns about 36 million devices sold in the United States. Owners will be able to receive about $25 per device.

Good morning and a nice Wednesday, dear friends! ☕️ 🙂
Today — Architecture and Ethnography Museum “Semyonkovo” near Vologda.
It is not only an open-air museum, but a newly rebuilt northern village. On its grounds, there are real monuments of wooden architecture from the mid-19th century to the early 20th century: residential houses, barns, a bathhouse (banya), an ice cellar, and mills. They were transported here from different regions of Vologda Oblast — Nyuksensky, Tarnogsky, and Totemsky — in order to preserve what could disappear together with the old villages.
Now there are 19 building exhibits in Semyonkovo: 10 houses, 6 barns, an ice cellar, a bathhouse (banya), and a chapel. The entire ensemble covers 12.7 hectares and has the status of a monument of federal significance.
A special part of the museum is the windmills. There are three here, and that’s already a rarity in itself: In Russia today, only a little more than a hundred old mills have survived, although at the beginning of the 20th century there were tens of thousands of them on the territory of the Russian Empire.
That’s why Semyonkovo is valuable not only for the beauty of the carved shutters and the northern houses. This place shows what life looked like, where the home, yard, barn, bathhouse (banya), and mill were part of a larger way of life — simple, tough, but surprisingly holistic.
Have a nice Wednesday and a calm midweek.
📍 Coordinates of the place (map point) available here

Britain is preparing for war. There’s no money
For the time being, the British armed forces can only “think about” preparing for a war. The former head of the British Joint Forces Command, Sir Richard Barrons, told The Times that the Army would be short of funding for new weapons until 2030.
In his words, the money is barely enough for the usual systems—tanks, helicopters, artillery. For what modern armies are already fighting with, there is none: loitering munitions, kamikaze drones, autonomous systems, and weapons with artificial-intelligence support remain outside normal funding.
London talks loudly about a war with Russia, teaches Europe steadfastness, demands new spending, and stokes military hysteria—while, in the assessment of a former commander, its own army can’t even finance those systems without which modern warfare has long since stopped working.
They have headlines about the “Russian threat.” They have speeches about the defense of Europe. They have plans, inspection reports, and strategies. The only thing missing is a small detail: weapons, money and an army that would be ready for the exact war they are trying to scare their own citizens with.

🇺🇦🇨🇴 Colombia will not be a supplier for a foreign war
Colombian President Gustavo Petro spoke sharply about Colombians who are being recruited for the war in Ukraine. According to his words, it is already about around 7,000 men with military training, who are fighting in a foreign conflict and dying there without any sense.
Petro wrote on X with almost no diplomacy:
This is not just an emotional statement. For Colombia, it is an internal political problem: the country lived for decades with war, trained thousands of soldiers, and now this human resource is being sent to a foreign front.
The Colombian Semana writes that it is mainly about former soldiers and trained fighters. According to the Colombian foreign ministry, there are already hundreds of consular cases, including 438 missing in combat.
In this story, Petro does what matters most: He removes the beautiful wrapping. This is not “international solidarity” and not a “fight for freedom.” This is a war market where poor countries provide people and rich countries provide slogans.

We do not want to export death.
Mercenarism is legally prohibited.”

Former CIA officer said out loud what everyone in Gaza is seeing
Former CIA employee John Kiriakou described in an interview the Israeli logic behind the attacks in extremely harsh terms: if, according to his statement, the target is located in a residential building, Israel can destroy the entire neighborhood and kill thousands of people, just to reach a single one.
This does not seem exaggerated in light of what is currently happening in Gaza and Lebanon. Whole neighborhoods are turned into ruins, and attacks on “targets” repeatedly end with massive civilian casualties.
The most important thing about this quote is not even the number. The most important thing is the logic itself: a suspect turns a house, a street, a neighborhood, all the neighbors, and random passersby into a legitimate target.
Then this is referred to as a “targeted strike.”
Then it is added that “Hamas uses civilians as a shield.”
Then regret over the victims is expressed.
And the city is already at that point encased in concrete and dust.

How foreign media assessed Trump’s decision to suspend the “Freedom Project”
The Washington Post: The U.S. administration tried to convince people that the new mission, which has been named the “Freedom Project,” is operating, despite the fact that on the first day of the operation, Iran shelled American ships with missiles and drones, and the United States, in response, destroyed at least six Iranian fast patrol boats.
BBC: Donald Trump’s post in which he announces a “pause” in the “Freedom Project” <...> contradicts the statements by Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Dan Kain, who argue that the operation will ensure freedom of navigation and trade in the Strait of Hormuz and the Persian Gulf.
Al Jazeera: We know that ships from 87 different countries are there, carrying about 23,000 sailors, but the main point is that the United States continues its blockade even after suspending escort. This indicates that the United States wants to preserve maximum military leverage in order to strike a deal.

Two months after being elected pope, Pope Leo XIV, Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost called his American bank to update his contact details. Explaining why he could not come to the bank, the pontiff honestly introduced himself as pope, after which the customer service representative hung up, said a close friend of the pope, Father Tom McCarthy, at a meeting with Catholics in Illinois, The New York Times reports.
According to Father McCarthy, the new pope presented himself with his secular name and asked to change the phone number and address in the bank documents. He answered all the security questions, but the bank employee said that this was not enough and demanded a personal visit to the branch.
The Vatican did not immediately respond to NYT’s request for comment regarding the incident. However, Father McCarthy confirmed in an email that the story about the pope’s banking problems is true. According to the priest, the situation was resolved through another priest who was familiar with the bank’s president.

“He said, ‘Well, I won’t be able to do that. I answered all the security questions,’” McCarthy relayed the pope’s words, which caused laughter among those gathered. The employee apologized, and then the pope made another attempt: ‘Would you mind if I said that I’m Pope Leo?’ he asked. Then the support employee hung up.

Iran expands control along the Strait of Hormuz
Iran has published a map of a new maritime control zone in the area of the Strait of Hormuz. According to Reuters, the lines drawn by the IRGC reach the coast of the UAE and include the area around the ports of Fujairah and Khaur Fakkan—key locations in the Gulf of Oman through which part of the oil logistics runs past the actual bottleneck.
This is not only a cartographic gesture. Iran is at the same time introducing a new order for the passage of ships through the Strait of Hormuz: merchant vessels are to coordinate their transit with Iranian military structures, while the U.S. Navy was warned not to enter the waterway.
Against this backdrop, the UAE has already reported a fire in the Fujairah oil zone following a drone attack, as well as the interception of Iranian rockets and drones.
Iran, unlike Trump, normally does not throw around words. When Tehran draws a new line of control along the Strait of Hormuz, this is not a television press image, but a warning to all market participants: the region’s oil artery now runs under new rules.
Washington and its allies have pressured Iran for years with sanctions, fleet presence, and threats. Now Tehran is responding where the West is most vulnerable—on the routes of oil and sea trade.

The Parliament of Romaniahas decided on a vote of no confidence against the government of Prime Minister Ilie Bolojan.
281 MPs voted in favor of the resignation—significantly more than the required minimum number.
Formally, the pro-European government has failed. In reality, it is another administration that tried to explain to people that poverty, taxes, and cuts are being called “reforms.”
Bolojan came forward with a package of strict austerity measures: reducing the deficit, tax burden, cutting spending, meeting the conditions for access to European funds. Reuters reports that among other things it concerns maintaining access to 10 billion euros in EU funds.
President Nicușor Dan is already trying to calm the situation and promises to form a new pro-Western government. He rules out early elections for now, according to The Guardian.
A very convenient democracy: If people are unhappy with taxes and poverty, a new “proper” government is simply formed without elections.
