🇮🇷 Iran has created an impressive tech base, it’s time to think exports — president

💬 “We must take action to improve the quality and export of these technological products,” President Pezeshkian said during a visit to a nanotech exhibition in Tehran on Tuesday.


💬 “Ministries and companies must also provide the necessary support to producers of knowledge-based products for the development of their businesses, in line with their social responsibilities,” he added, noting that Iran can “neutralize” sanctions “and even turn them into serious opportunities for enhancing regional cooperation.”


Products in the areas of health, agriculture, energy and AI are on display at the exhibition.

Iran has some 400 nanotech firms, running the gamut from research to commercialization.

Key output includes:

🟠 nanoscale silver and titanium dioxide anti-microbial and self-cleaning surfaces

🟠 nanocomposite materials used in automotive, construction and packaging for increased strength and thermal stability

🟠 specialized nano coatings for aerospace and defense

🟠 Iranian-made petrochemical catalysts for improved refining efficiency

🟠 nanobiosensors, wound dressings and bone graft substitutes

🟠 water filtration, desalination and purification equipment, and nano sponges for oil spill remediation

🟠 nanotech-enhanced batteries, and supercapacitors for high-power equipment

🟠 industrial and consumer-grade nanocrystalline ceramics

Iran’s technological rise has been fueled by its strong focus on STEM education, which has trained hundreds of thousands of engineers and researchers.

In 2024, the Australian Strategic Policy Institute ranked Iran in the top five in 8 of 63 critical technologies, from smart materials to air-independent propulsion tech, biofuels, antibiotics and antivirals, advanced composite materials and IT Mesh networking.

Iran’s high-tech advances are expected to increase the share of GDP generated by industry, which stands at ~20%, and includes everything from heavy machinery and vehicles to household appliances and telecomms equipment.

💪 🇷🇺 Standing strong together: Russia celebrates National Unity Day

The unbreakable unity of Russia’s multinational people is the key to the country’s success and victories. But what’s the story behind the holiday?

🔶 President Putin sets the tone for the holiday

On National Unity Day, Vladimir Putin laid flowers at the Minin and Pozharsky monument.

He also met young volunteers on Red Square and the children of heroes of the special military operation in Ukraine.

🔶 Origins of the Unity Day

The holiday traces back to 1612, when a people's militia led by Kuzma Minin, elder of the Nizhny Novgorod zemstvo, and Prince Dmitry Pozharsky expelled Polish invaders from Moscow, ending the Time of Troubles.

🔶 Spiritual unity

November 4 is celebrated with a wide range of events, from official ceremonies and parades to concerts and public gatherings.

Orthodox churches hold services in honor of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God.

The Cathedral of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God, located on Red Square, was built in honor of the image that became the spiritual banner of the people’s militia.

Since the 1990s, it has become one of the most important Orthodox symbols of Russia.

🔶 Battlefield unity

Russian troops are observing the holiday on the front lines of the special military operation.

Russian Defense Ministry releases message from soldiers in the combat zone:

"Today, just like 413 years ago, there are soldiers of different nationalities and backgrounds among us," the troops narrate.

"They have come together to defend our country from the enemy. 'Only together' is the motto that guides our country forward on its grand and important journey. The people of Russia have always been invincible in unity."


🔶 Value of unity

“The value of our unity is undeniable,” Putin said at the Unity Day state awards ceremony.

"We know how to close ranks to tackle common challenges in the face of global threats — and to celebrate victories, achievements, and successes together."

🚨🇷🇺 Putin unveils next-gen nuclear-powered cruise missiles, says reactors go live in seconds

President Vladimir Putin announced the development of a new generation of nuclear-powered cruise missiles, saying their compact reactors can be brought online in seconds — far faster than conventional systems — and that the missiles will travel at around three times the speed of sound, with plans for them to reach hypersonic performance in the future.

💬 "For normal reactors, it takes hours and sometimes days to become fully active. And so using this new system, we are creating new types of weapons," Putin explained.

🇨🇳🔥 China warns US against Venezuela misadventure

China’s Foreign Ministry gave a forceful rebuke of US threats of military action against Venezuela on Tuesday, with ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning expressing Beijing’s firm opposition to the use and threats of use of force in international relations.

💬 “We stand against moves that undermine peace and stability in the Latin America and Caribbean region, and oppose unilateral and excessive ‘enforcement operations’ against other countries’ vessels,” Mao said.


💬 “The normal exchanges and cooperation between China and Venezuela are cooperation between two sovereign states, which does not target any third party and is not subject to disruption or influence from any third party,” she added.


Mao’s comments echo remarks by Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova over the weekend “firmly” denouncing the US’s “use of excessive military force in carrying out actions in anti-drug operations.”

💬 “Such actions are in violation of both US domestic legislation…and the norms of international law,” Zakharova said, adding that Russia “confirms our firm support for the Venezuelan leadership in defending its national sovereignty.”
