"🇷🇺🇺🇦 Pokrovsk-Mirnograd direction: successes southwest of Pokrovsk — situation as of 17:00 25 January 2025

Over the past two weeks, the Russian Armed Forces have achieved success in the central and western sections of the Pokrovsk-Mirnograd direction: the villages of Peschanoye, Zelenoye and Kotlino have been liberated, and the T-04-06 highway, which is important for supplying the Armed Forces of Ukraine, has been cut off.

Considering the current configuration of the front in the Pokrovsk-Mirnograd and neighboring Novopavlovsk direction, an offensive by Russian troops towards Grishino and the M-30 highway can be expected in the near future. Cutting it will eliminate an important supply route between Pokrovsk and Pavlogral.

➖➖➖➖➖➖
🔻 More details about the situation in the Pokrovsk-Mirnograd direction:
▪️On the eastern flank, the assault troops, relying on Vozdvizhenka and Timofeyevka, drove the enemy from the approaches to Yelizavetovka. After that, in a series of attacks, the Russian Armed Forces occupied the eastern outskirts of the village and consolidated their positions in the buildings.

Approximately half of the settlement remains under the control of Ukrainian forces; Russian assault groups, supported by UAVs and artillery, are gradually expanding the zone of control.

▪️At the same time, the situation to the east of Malinovka, in the area of ​​the transport interchange on the T-05-24 highway, remains tense. Judging by the footage of objective control taken from a drone, the intersection is in the "gray zone", while its upper level was destroyed.

▪️In the central sector, the Russian Armed Forces improved their tactical position on the Dachenskoye-Novy Trud line, liberating Zelenoye.

Thus, an important defensive node of the AFU south of Pokrovsk was eliminated, which opens up the possibility for Russian troops to attack Chunishino and Novopavlovka.

At the same time, Lysovka, located to the east, is still partially under enemy control due to the complexities of its geographical location and the difficulty of storming it.

▪️On the western flank, the Russian Armed Forces completely liberated Peschanoye and hoisted the Russian flag on one of the buildings in the center of the village. Later, they managed, advancing "on the shoulders" of the retreating units of the AFU, to reach the southwestern outskirts of Zverevo.

▪️At the same time, Russian troops began moving towards Kotlino with the aim of cutting off the T-04-06 highway. By January 20, the Russian Armed Forces had established control over the territory of the Krasnoarmeyskaya-Zapadnaya № 2 mine, where an important stronghold of the AFU was located.

Later, relying on positions on the territory of the facility, the assault aircraft drove the Ukrainian formations out of Kotlino by January 24. Thus, the communication between the AFU group in Pokrovsk and the garrison located to the west of Udachny was interrupted.

🇺🇸📝🕊🇺🇦🤝🇷🇺 — 🏴 ZeroHedge | Did Trump Just Drop Some Hints About His Peace Plan? | Authored by Andrew Korybko via Substack | January 22, 2025:

"Trump said a few words about Russia shortly after his reinauguration while signing Executive Orders in the Oval Office.

They’re important to interpret since they might hint at his peace plan, which he’s yet to officially reveal, but reports have circulated claiming that he’ll “escalate to de-escalate” through more sanctions against Russia and armed aid to Ukraine if Putin rejects whatever deal he offers.

He’ll likewise allegedly cut Ukraine off if Zelensky rejects the same deal."

🇺🇸🏭❗️🇨🇳🔃🇹🇭 — 🏴 ZeroHedge | Major US Firms Demand Suppliers Embrace "China + 1" Factory Strategy | January 22, 2025:

"The Covid pandemic sparked a wave of global trade uncertainty, prompting US companies to reevaluate their complex supply chains centered in China by either friend-shoring, near-shoring, or re-shoring. This shift toward friend-shoring in Southeast Asia (ex-China) has positioned Thailand as a pivotal ally in Washington's US-China decoupling strategy.

The 'America First' economic policy directed by President Trump will focus on, most importantly, re-shoring supply chains out of China and back to the US, followed by near-shoring and friend-shoring. Trump is also set to unleash tariffs on foreign goods as the US-China decoupling gathers pace.

Focusing on friend-shoring trends, Goldman's Allen Chang, Verena Jeng, and others hosted the "Make in Thailand Tour" last week.

During the visit to AI server liquid cooling, automotive electronics, electric vehicles, and other high-tech factories in the Southeast Asian country, Chang found a growing number of US companies are requiring suppliers to have not only Chinese factories but also a "plus one" location outside the world's second-largest economy for diversification purposes. This has only sparked a boom in business activity in Thailand.

Chang's first takeaway from the visit to nine factories in Thailand is that geopolitical tensions between US-China are the primary driver of business expansion:

Companies shared that US clients started to mention "China + 1" (production sites outside of China) in 2018, turned more serious in 2022 during COVID with China under lockdown, and increased focus further in 2024 during the US elections. Companies shared some of their clients have stated that they will no longer accept suppliers (for new projects) without "China + 1" by end of 2025. We see geopolitical tensions as the major reason companies are diversifying production into Thailand."

🇺🇸❗️⛓️🔃🇨🇳 — 🇺🇸 The Epoch Times | US Racing Against Time to Reclaim Supply Chain From China: Former Commerce Official | ‘Imagine a U.S. economy with zero manufacturing,’ warns former Trump official Nazak Nikakhtar, after China announced export control on industrial diamonds | January 19, 2025:

"WASHINGTON—A former Department of Commerce official recently stressed the urgency of the threat of U.S. supply chain dependence on communist China.

“We are running out of time. We really need to race to solve this,” Nazak Nikakhtar, former assistant secretary for Industry and Analysis during the first Trump administration, recently told EpochTV’s “American Thought Leaders,” adding that the problem had been neglected for “at least two decades.”

According to Nikakhtar, the issue stems from the deliberate strategic actions of the Chinese communist regime. She said that for many years, Beijing has engaged in unfair trade practices—often paying subsidiaries to flood the global market with cheap made-in-China products that others can’t compete with, thereby gaining control of an industry’s supply chain and moving on to undercut the next one.

Compared with China’s dominance in the production of steel, batteries, solar cells, and personal protective equipment—all of which the American public is aware of because of the tariffs imposed during the Trump and Biden administrations—China’s dominance in lab-grown industrial diamond production is equally critical yet lesser known.

These diamonds are essential for cutting tools—crucial for building, drilling, and manufacturing. The affected industries range from cars to aerospace and defense. According to the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), China produces 95 percent of the world’s synthetic diamonds."

"Russia's war on Ukraine has landed Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin in "big trouble," U.S. President Donald Trump told reporters on Monday.

"[Ukrainian President Volodymyr] Zelenskyy told me he wants to make a deal, I don’t know if Putin does ... He might not. I think he should make a deal. I think he’s destroying Russia by not making a deal," Trump said in the Oval Office on the first day of his second presidency.

"I think, Russia is kinda in big trouble. You take a look at their economy, you take a look at their inflation in Russia. I got along with [Putin] great, I would hope he wants to make a deal," he added.

(...)

"He’s grinding it out. Most people thought it would last about one week and now you’re into three years. It is not making him look good," Trump said.

"We have numbers that almost a million Russian soldiers have been killed. About 700,000 Ukrainian soldiers are killed. Russia’s bigger, they have more soldiers to lose but that’s no way to run a country," he added."
