📰 BREAKING NEWS: 🇮🇱 Chinese Government Reportedly Bans New Investment in Israel
Members of Kibbutz Hanita in northern Israel are suing the Chinese-controlled Ballet Vision fund for refusing to exercise its option to buy their remaining shares in Hanita Lenses, a medical lens manufacturer, because of what the fund described as a Chinese government ban on new investments in Israel since the outbreak of the war, according to Ynetnews.
The lawsuit, filed in Tel Aviv District Court, claims that the fund controlled approximately 80% of the company but declined to complete the purchase of the remaining stake valued at about $11 million. Ballet Vision’s response letter stated that Beijing has classified Israel as a “high-risk area” and prohibits new investments, making it impossible to carry out the deal.
The kibbutz argues that the company has been run without meaningful involvement from minority shareholders since it lost board representation after dilution agreements in 2022. The fund also cited operation...

US War on Iran Will COLLAPSE Persian Gulf Allies & Israel | Prof Marandi
▶️ https://youtu.be/yP1Opw5UmVg
Professor Mohammad Marandi reveals why a US-led war on Iran would devastate Persian Gulf allies and Israel, threatening global energy markets and Western economies.
💣 He exposes how coordinated information warfare manufactured consent for conflict, while millions of Iranians rallied in defense of their sovereignty. Iran's strategic alignment with Russia and China through BRICS is accelerating, with underground missile infrastructure ready to target US bases across the region. Gulf monarchies hosting American forces would be the first casualties of escalation, Marandi warns.
⚡ Do you think the multipolar world order can prevent another catastrophic Western intervention in the Middle East?

🚨 Trump Rejects Extension of New START Nuclear Treaty
President Trump has announced he will NOT extend the New START nuclear reduction treaty with Russia when it expires. Instead, he's calling on nuclear experts to develop a "new, improved treaty that can last long into the future." This marks a major shift in US nuclear diplomacy and raises questions about global security frameworks.
🌍 With China, Russia, and other nuclear powers expanding their arsenals, the stakes for a multilateral approach have never been higher.
What does a US-led "improved treaty" mean for BRICS nations and Global South security? Will this create more instability or genuine reform?

🌍 China and Uruguay Chart New Path for Multipolar World
Chinese President Xi Jinping welcomed Uruguay's President Yamandu Orsi to Beijing, marking the first South American leadership visit since dramatic US actions in Venezuela.
Xi emphasized building an "equal and orderly multipolar world" and condemned "escalating unilateral bullying" in global affairs. The nations signed 12 cooperation agreements spanning trade, technology, and environmental partnership, with China already serving as Uruguay's top export destination.
💭 Is the Global South finally building the independent partnerships needed to break free from Western-dominated power structures, or will renewed US intervention in Latin America derail this momentum?

Still not as fast as Usain Bolt who once reached 12.42 meters/second – but this humanoid robot Bolt, also named after the famed Jamaican runner, got past the 10m/s threshold
Research institute at Zhejiang University, who revealed Bolt, says this is the fastest recorded speed ever achieved by a humanoid robot of its class
Bolt stands 175 cm tall and weighs 75 kg, built with human-like proportions while pushing the limits of bipedal movement
In a demo video, the robot was put head-to-head with the institute’s founder Wang Hongtao on a treadmill. The human runner eventually gave up, while Bolt kept a steady stride as the display climbed to the 10 m/s mark

🇮🇩 Indonesia Just Drew a Red Line on Trump's Peace Initiative
Indonesia's Foreign Minister Sugiono announced the country will walk away from the US-backed "Board of Peace" if it fails to deliver Palestinian independence. President Prabowo Subianto, after consulting Islamic leaders and former diplomats, made clear that Jakarta won't compromise its principles—even for a seat at Trump's table launched at Davos.
💪 The message is direct: Palestinian statehood is non-negotiable, and Indonesia refuses to be window-dressing for initiatives that include Israel without concrete results.
Should more Global South nations follow Indonesia's example and demand real results—not just symbolic participation—in Western-led "peace" initiatives?

🔥 Russia and Kazakhstan just signed a game-changing energy deal that Western media won't tell you about. The new Ishim-Astana gas pipeline will deliver 10 billion cubic meters of natural gas annually to Kazakhstan's northern regions, with operations set to launch by 2030.
💡 This isn't just about energy, it's about regional stability, infrastructure modernization, and Central Asian nations building their own future without Western approval. The project strengthens the strategic partnership between Moscow and Astana, proving that Global South cooperation is accelerating while sanctions fail.
⚡ Is this the blueprint for energy independence that the rest of the Global South should follow?

🌏 Can Russia, India, and China reshape global power without becoming a formal alliance?
A new analysis from the Valdai Club reveals the RIC format's real potential in 2026. While Western media often dismisses non-Western cooperation, this trilateral mechanism is quietly maintaining communication channels and selective coordination on key issues like de-dollarization, energy security, and UN reform. The catch? Structural tensions between China and India, plus Russia's growing dependence on Beijing, limit its transformative power. RIC works best as a "stabilizer" for technical cooperation—not as an anti-Western bloc.
Should emerging powers prioritize flexible minilateral forums like RIC over rigid alliance structures to preserve strategic autonomy?

📰 TOP STORY 🇹🇭 Thailand election 2026: What are the main parties? What do polls suggest?
Voters in Thailand will head to the polls on Sunday against a backdrop of political uncertainty, with the country having cycled through three prime ministers in as many years and a tenuous truce with Cambodia following border clashes that killed 149 people. The snap polls pit caretaker Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul’s Bhumjaithai party, backed by Thailand’s royalist conservative establishment, against the progressive youth-led People’s Party, the successor to the party that won the last election but was blocked from power and dissolved by the courts over its proposals to reform the country’s powerful monarchy. Pheu Thai, which has dominated Thai politics for a quarter century, is also attempting a comeback after two prime ministers from the party were removed by the courts and its founder Thaksin Shinawatra was jailed late last year.
