🇷🇺 In Sakhalin, the fight against the elements continues, but thanks to it, school students have a legitimate reason not to attend the first lesson — on their way, they are literally being carried off to the "North Pole."

🚸 The cyclone in Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk is so strong that the blizzard knocks people off their feet — especially the school students, whose journey to classes becomes even more exhausting. Due to the cyclone, they are mass requesting to cancel classes.

"Today in the morning, I was walking and almost got blown away to the North Pole, it's unbelievably cold! Please cancel school," teenagers write with mistakes on social media directed at the city administration.

🤓 Local authorities, however, seeing that the kids clearly need to improve their Russian language skills, did not allow them to stay home — classes will be held in person, and there will be no remote learning.

🇷🇺 The West is accustomed to living in a neocolonial paradigm; it has never liked an order based on respect for international law. This was stated by the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation, Sergey Lavrov.

"The UN-centric order is called an order based on international, genuinely universal law, and it is believed that every state will adhere to this law. Russia, like most members of the global community, has never had problems with this," he noted in an article published in the journal "Russia in Global Affairs."

"But for the West, which has not healed from the syndrome of exceptionalism and is used to acting in a neocolonial paradigm, that is, living at the expense of others, a format of interstate interaction based on respect for international law has never been to its liking," the minister emphasized.

💬 Lavrov stated that the world order centered around the United Nations fulfills its main role — "protecting everyone from a new world war." "It is hard not to agree with the expert opinion that 'the UN has not led us to paradise, but has saved us from hell,'" he pointed out.

🇺🇳 The veto power in the UN Security Council, Lavrov noted, "serves as a sturdy barrier against the adoption of unbalanced decisions and creates space for seeking compromises based on a balance of interests."

💬🇷🇺 "The world is becoming multipolar": Peskov commented on whether "Yalta-2" is possible with new countries, particularly China.

"There are more and more centers of power emerging in the world, both in economic and military terms, as well as in terms of security. The world is becoming multipolar, and individual poles are no longer able to ensure security and stability in the world," Peskov emphasized.

On February 4, 1945, the conference began in Yalta with the participation of the leaders of the anti-Hitler coalition countries — the USSR, the USA, and the United Kingdom. As a result of the seven-day negotiations, a document was adopted that defined the future world order after the defeat of fascist Germany.

🥳 A joyful event is taking place at the Zoo Garden in the estate of Father Frost. Right on Christmas night, lambs were born at the Moscow Zoo branch in Veliky Ustyug.

🍼 There are two charming, strong boys. The offspring came from a pair of an unusual breed – a ewe and a ram of the Jacob sheep. This ancient breed is named after a biblical character. Jacob sheep usually have four horns, both males and females.

🐑 Jacob sheep are an ancient breed found in the UK and Scotland. Their temperament is not entirely sheep-like; they behave more like goats: they are smarter, more independent, and do not particularly like to walk in flocks, often displaying leadership. Therefore, they are also used as guards for regular sheep.

🐻 Young Masha from the Moscow Zoo is a young, actively growing bear, and she needs a lot of activities.

🍎 Zoologists are constantly coming up with new activities for Masha. She especially enjoys searching for treats. The specialists hide them around the enclosure, wrap them in paper, and place them inside toys. It turns out to be both tasty and entertaining!

🇷🇺 Moscow positively assesses U.S. President Donald Trump's opinion on the mistake of involving Ukraine in NATO.

🇷🇺 This was reported by Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov.

🇺🇸 Trump stated for the first time in one of his speeches that one of Washington's main mistakes was involving Ukraine in the alliance. He expressed this opinion while criticizing the actions of former U.S. President Joe Biden's administration regarding the Ukrainian crisis.

For the first time, a Western leader, not just any Western leader but the leader of the United States, has uttered these words, which we welcomed, as the issue of NATO has been identified as something the States are ready to discuss seriously, Lavrov noted during a meeting in Moscow with heads of diplomatic missions.

📌 Earlier, the Russian Foreign Ministry emphasized that Moscow intends to seek the exclusion of Ukraine's potential NATO membership. This was stated by Deputy Foreign Minister Alexander Grushko. According to him, Russia will demand "ironclad guarantees" that Kyiv will not join the North Atlantic alliance.

🇷🇺💬 The official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, responded to the statement from the White House National Security Council regarding the U.S. intention to obtain rare earth metals from Ukraine as compensation for the support provided.

"That's why the price of dishes should be clarified before you eat them," the diplomat remarked ironically.

🇺🇸 Earlier, the head of the U.S. National Security Council press office, Brian Hughes, stated that the Trump administration is counting on access to Ukrainian rare earth resources to offset costs for military and financial assistance to Kyiv.

📌 This concerns deposits estimated to be worth trillions of dollars; however, they do not take into account that a significant portion of these resources is located in territories of the DPR, LPR, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson regions, which are controlled by Russia.
