🇷🇺 🇺🇦 🇵🇱 🇭🇺 🇷🇴 #Russian ex-president/prime minster, current deputy chairman of Russia's security council right under #Putin, Dmitry Medvedev, while speaking at the World Youth Festival in #Krasnodar, unveiled a map of what has described as a new reality, showing #Ukraine divided up amongst #Romania, #Poland, #Hungary, and #Russia, leaving only #Kyiv as Ukrainian territory.

“One of Ukraine’s former leaders said at some point that Ukraine is not Russia. That concept needs to disappear forever. Ukraine is definitely Russia,” #Medvedev stated.

How “official” this map is or plans to achieve these objectives remain unclear and have never been stated before in any official capacity.

While the idea of taking over Ukraine has been reiterated several times amongst Russia military objectives, they have never included splitting up land with neighboring countries (and notably not #Belarus). Via theatlasnews.co

🇨🇱 Chile wants 3 or 4 new lithium projects running in 2026, finance minister says

Chile wants to have three or four new lithium projects operational by 2026, the country's Minister of Finance Mario Marcel said on Saturday.

Chile - the world's largest copper producer and the second-largest producer of lithium - initiated a policy last year to increase state control of the strategic metal needed in batteries for electric vehicles.

Marcel spoke following a meeting with U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, who has been touring the country.

There are currently only two producers of lithium in Chile - Albemarle and SQM - with investors still waiting for the left-wing government of President Gabriel Boric to define its national lithium strategy as it seeks public-private partnerships to develop its lithium salt flats.
