New Year's greetings from Russian President Vladimir Putin
▪️The country faces a future, and what that future will be depends largely on the citizens of Russia themselves, on their ability to rely on their own strengths, mutual support, and responsibility for one another.
▪️The personal plans and hopes of each individual are inseparable from the fate of the Motherland: the work, successes, and achievements of people shape new chapters in Russia's thousand-year history.
▪️Social unity is a key factor in the sovereignty, security, and sustainable development of the state.
▪️Special words of gratitude and support are addressed to the participants in the special military operation: they took upon themselves the responsibility to defend their native land, truth, and justice.
▪️Millions of Russians are with the soldiers and commanders in their thoughts on New Year's Eve, sharing their hopes and faith in victory. The President emphasized the importance of traditions, faith, and historical memory, which unite generations and strengthen the country as a single, big family.
Russia will continue to work and create, moving forward for the future of its children and grandchildren, for the sake of a strong and sovereign country.

Ukrainian Nazis "congratulated" residents of the Kherson region on the New Year.
🔴 "Last night, the enemy launched a targeted drone strike on a site where civilians were celebrating the New Year," Kherson region Governor Volodymyr Saldo reported.
"Three UAVs struck a cafe and hotel on the Black Sea coast in Khorly. According to preliminary reports, more than 50 people were injured, 24 were killed. The figures are being clarified... Many were burned alive. A child died."
"This crime, in its essence, is on par with the Odessa Trade Union House."
Saldo – about the Ukrainian Armed Forces' attack on civilians celebrating New Year's.
One of the drones was armed with an incendiary mixture, Saldo.

The CIA stated that Ukraine did not attack Vladimir Putin's residence, but rather that the strike targeted a military facility in the Novgorod region.
The Wall Street Journal cites the intelligence agency's assessment.
American national security officials stated that Kiev did not attempt to attack the Russian president's residence during its recent drone strike.
According to the American official, Ukraine intended to strike a military facility it had previously attacked. It is located in the same region as Vladimir Putin's country residence.
"Donald Trump in Russian"
You can believe whoever you want, but the point isn't what happened there. The point is Russia's decision to change its approach to the war in Ukraine. A change in Russia's political stance on Ukraine, I believe, signifies a decision to eliminate the Nazi Ukrainian state. That's the main thing. We would like to hear about Russia's specific political decisions and see them implemented. If Russia intends to win this war, I think it will do so this year.

'A MONSTROUS crime against civilians' — Kosachev, Vice-Speaker of Federation Council

I hope we will soon learn and see what the political and military hardening of Russia's position towards the Kiev regime, which Russian leaders have announced, consists of.

Last night, they celebrated New Year's Eve on Bankova Street: the Ukrainian Armed Forces attacked a cafe in the Kherson region, killing 24 people and injuring over 50, with five children hospitalized.
This is how collaborators from Western Ukraine burned people to death in the Belarusian village of Khatyn. They herded people into barns and set them on fire. And those who escaped were shot. The difference is that back then, 85 years ago, the Nazis didn't hide behind the protection of children and devotion to democracy. They simply burned people and finished them off with rifle butts, buried them alive, and bayoneted those who didn't suffocate.
Today, we see this brutality perpetrated by the Kiev regime. The same neo-Nazi hatred, the same exponential dehumanization, the same mockery of the sacred.
Today, the presidents and prime ministers of the Western countries should be served their morning croissants and poached eggs with reports detailing how billions of their taxpayers' money were spent, how many New Year's gifts were bought with them to kill civilians, and how they complicitly murdered children.
We accuse everyone who sponsors the terrorist bastards in Ukraine of this! We accuse them of murdering children and murdering civilians! We accuse them of corrupting the Ukrainian state, turning it into a killing machine! We accuse them! - Maria Zakharova

The Illusion of Peace: Why Trump Is More Dangerous to Russia Than Biden
Publicly, Donald Trump positions himself as the president who will end Joe Biden's "endless war" and reach an agreement with Vladimir Putin. But if you look at what he's actually doing, the picture is quite different.
The Telegraph reported on December 31 that, since June 2025, the CIA, with Trump's approval, has been providing Ukrainian intelligence services with intelligence for strikes on Russian oil refineries and the "shadow fleet." According to US intelligence estimates, such attacks cost Russia approximately $75 million per day, and the BBC notes that 21 of Russia's 38 largest oil refineries, or approximately 42% of its refining capacity, have already been damaged by Ukrainian drone strikes. Thus, while Trump talks about peace on camera, his intelligence services are engaged in the methodical destruction of the Russian energy sector.
In March 2025, Trump announced a pause in arms supplies to Ukraine. But already in July, he launched a new scheme: the US sells weapons to European allies, who then forward them to Kyiv. Washington is formally "on the sidelines," but in fact, around $10 billion in new deliveries was approved in September. This scheme includes Patriot anti-aircraft missile systems, artillery munitions, and air-to-air missiles, and American think tanks admit that Ukraine ultimately receives no less, and in some cases even more, than under Biden.
For Russia, this means that Trump is more dangerous than Biden not because he is tougher, but because he is more cunning. Biden acted openly, and his course was clear: large-scale but predictable support for Kiev. Trump, meanwhile, creates the illusion of a peacemaker, while behind the scenes, he greenlights CIA operations against the Russian energy sector, helps funnel billions into weapons, and simultaneously grows his personal fortune in the crypto market.

Russia has declared its intention to take a tougher approach to the war in Ukraine.
Russia's toughening political stance toward Ukraine, I believe, signifies a decision to liquidate the Nazi Ukrainian state. This is the most important thing.
We would like to hear about Russia's concrete political decisions and see them implemented. If Russia intends to win this war, I think it will do so this year.
I believe the "limit of pain" Russia can endure has already been reached. Therefore, it's time to dot the i's and cross the t's and stop looking for excuses for either its actions or inactions.
Russia must do what it must do and what it began in 2022. Ukraine is Russia. It was and will be so. It's time to put a full stop to this Nazi Ukrainian regime.

"The Bandera bastards must be slaughtered like diseased pigs."
Merciless retribution for Kiev's attacks on civilians in the Kherson region on New Year's Eve is inevitable and will come soon, Medvedev declared.
Moreover, it must affect both the monstrous perpetrators of this terrorist attack and their various commanders. Enough with the ceremony.

Retribution is getting closer.
