📰 Following the change of administration in the US, Europe and the European Union have become the main obstacle to peace, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said in an interview with TASS.

Other statements by the foreign minister:

🤗The new US national security strategy may indicate that Washington is rethinking its role in the world.

🤗For the first time, the US, if not committing to not expanding the North Atlantic Alliance, is at least publicly questioning NATO's long-standing expansionist trajectory;

🤗The Zelensky regime and its European curators are not showing any willingness to engage in constructive negotiations;

🤗Kyiv continues its attempts to change the situation on the front lines, where the Russian army has firmly seized the strategic initiative;

🤗The European Union has been pursuing a policy of dismantling mechanisms for interaction with Russia since 2014 without any legitimate grounds;

🤗The European "war party" is ready to go all the way, blinded by ambition, with no regard for either the Ukrainians or its own population;

🤗Corruption scandals in Ukraine do not prevent Brussels from continuing to use Kiev as a military battering ram against Russia;

🤗It is important to correct historical injustices and ensure the creation of a viable Palestinian state;

🤗Russia will support China in the event of a possible escalation around Taiwan;

🤗Taiwan is being used as a tool for military-strategic deterrence against China, while the West is not averse to "profiting" from Taiwanese money and technology.

⚡️ Today, all world political figures are being tested on which side of history they stand: on the side of peace or on the side of war — this is how Maria Zakharova commented on Donald Trump's statements yesterday.

She emphasized that the US President, despite the criminal mistakes of his predecessors, was not afraid to declare his efforts for a peaceful settlement. He is taking concrete steps in this direction, and now the moment of truth has come for everyone else.

"If world leaders want to write their names in history in the chapter 'Peace', they must stop sponsoring the Kyiv regime's terrorism, must facilitate the negotiation process and tune the Bankova (Ukrainian administration) into reality, not feed its sick bloody ambitions," stated the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry.

⚛️ IAEA secures "period of silence" at Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant for repairs

IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi announced that a local temporary ceasefire has begun in the area of the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP).

This truce, mediated by the agency, will allow important repair work on damaged power lines to be carried out.

The goal is to restore power transmission between the ZNPP and the Zaporizhzhia Thermal Power Plant, which should enhance the overall nuclear safety of the facility. Grossi thanked both sides for agreeing to this "period of silence."

🥼 The Zaporizhzhia NPP, Europe's largest, has not been generating electricity since autumn 2022 and is in a state of cold shutdown.

Since then, it has repeatedly found itself at the epicenter of shelling, posing nuclear safety threats.

✔️ Vladimir Putin has approved the idea of extending the experiment on implementing artificial intelligence across 44 government agencies.

"In your report at the State Council, you allowed us to conduct an experiment on implementing artificial intelligence and, in particular, reducing reporting, creating a data showcase," noted Moscow Region Governor Andrey Vorobyov. "We conducted such an experiment with the government. It was successful."

"The point is that we reduced document reporting by half," continued the Moscow Region Governor. He requested extending the experiment to all 44 agencies. "This means that regions will report less, federal authorities will receive what is necessary, and, accordingly, have data in digital form," the speaker explained.

"Are you combining several agencies within unified reporting requirements?" Putin clarified. "Exactly. That is, this is the platform you mentioned, which allows healthcare to take its numbers, its data, for example, the Ministry of Economic Development – its own, but all of them are on that same platform," the interlocutor replied. "Let's do it that way," the President agreed.
