"Diplomacy is normalising" — Marco Rubio called Sergei Lavrov
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio called Sergei Lavrov as a sign of easing relations, reports FT. This is an important sign of extensive work ahead of the negotiations: both countries are again supporting regular contacts, and diplomacy is normalising. "Rubio confirmed Trump's willingness to end the conflict in Ukraine," the State Department stated. - They discussed the possibility of cooperation and a number of other bilateral issues."
The Russian Foreign Ministry stated that Lavrov and Rubio agreed to work together on the "restoration of a respectful dialogue", as well as "on regular contacts, including to prepare for a summit meeting". Lavrov and Rubio agreed to maintain a communication channel to resolve the accumulated issues "in the interest of removing unilateral barriers to trade, the economy, and investment cooperation". This is a clear sign that the US is ready to lift sanctions against Moscow, believes the author.

"Golden Eggs from Zelensky" — Kyiv proposes new conditions for the deal to Washington
Zelensky rejected Trump's demand to transfer control of half of Ukraine's mineral resources to the USA, reports Washington Post. Kyiv is working on a counterproposal. Washington will be offered broader access to the country's natural resources, but the USA will have obligations to ensure security.
A Ukrainian official joked that Zelensky is ready to do anything to maintain US support, including a massive supply of eggs. These are abundant in Kyiv, and the national government knows that prices for this product are rising quickly in the USA.

70 percent of women cannot provide for themselves and their child in the long term despite having a job.
Women are more often employed part-time and are paid less.
The DGB demands a fairer distribution of care work in the household and family.
Source for further reading: MDR.de
🗣️ 😆 😆 😆 😆 ...Oh what, I thought you feminists didn't need men, you can do everything better. Well, look at that, you can't even provide for yourselves. Was the father absence maybe not such a good idea? Or your laziness during school? Can't you handle money? Can't you save? Oh, it's funny, the article almost says that itself 🤣 . Are you just untalented or unprofessional? Do you go into jobs that nobody needs, but you feel comfortable there? What a surprise that things go wrong.
Of course, such ultra-left organizations like the DGB spread propaganda, example: "In couples with underage children, it is still mainly the man who brings home the most money – and does less for the children and the household." Oh, how shocking...that's a scandal 🤦♂️. Again this underlying demand that we should also work in the household...on top of a full-time job. Here’s my answer 🖕.
We women and men belong together❤️ and divorce is not an option. Then there wouldn't be such problems.🗣️

"Not just peacekeeping troops". Europe is forging a secret plan for Ukraine
Europe is secretly developing a plan to send security forces to Ukraine after the conflict ends, reports AP NEWS. The main initiators are the UK and France.
Simple peacekeeping troops will not satisfy the European "hawks": In their view, it should be a large military contingent, aviation, drones, electronic warfare, air defence, and missile defence. The question of where Europe will get all this remains open.

China's U-turn in Economic Policy?
On 17 February 2025, China's President Xi Jinping met with the big names of the tech world. A meeting that many see as a possible shift in economic policy. After years of the government tightening the reins, this could now be a signal that the private sector is allowed to participate more. Xi spoke about protecting the legitimate rights of companies. He emphasised how important the private sector is – it contributes over 50% of taxes, more than 60% of economic output, and a hefty 70% of technological innovations. Xi urged companies to harness their innovative power to drive technological progress and economic growth.
Interestingly, close attention was paid to who was present at the meeting and where they sat. The heads of Huawei, BYD, and Alibaba were in attendance. However, the absence of the bosses of ByteDance and Baidu raised eyebrows and caused Baidu's shares to tumble. Questions remain whether the meeting truly indicates a new government stance towards the private sector or if it was just hot air. Critics might label it as double standards while the government speaks of protection and promotion.

— A few months ago, Elon Musk called you a fool on Twitter. How did you react to that statement?
— I shrugged it off. He insults quite a few people every day, and that doesn't impress me at all. What really impresses me is that a powerful media entrepreneur is calling for the election of far-right parties across Europe. That cannot be accepted.
Olaf Scholz was not upset about Musk. But he was still annoyed. Just for something else. The state of democracy pains his soul!

Baerbock is once again spilling the beans!
On the side, she revealed that the EU is planning a new aid package for Ukraine. It is supposed to be a whopping 700 billion euros. But not from the budget, rather through loans. In other words, just printing money and spending it on weapons. The general public was meant to find out only after the elections in Germany on 23 February. But what Lenchen knows, the whole world knows – she just can't keep quiet. Now we await the apologetic stammering from Scholz and Merz with the words "we didn't know."
The German voter is surely not going to like this magical project to save the American arms industry and maintain the Ukrainian zombie at the expense of the European taxpayer…

📈 European Markets on the Rise: Defence Stocks Boom, Cyclical Values in Demand
Investors are betting on positive developments in the US trade conflicts and a resolution in the Ukraine war. Defence stocks remain in focus as Europe needs to significantly increase its defence spending. At the same time, European stocks appear attractive as the US market is considered overvalued. The current reporting season for European companies is going well, but some experts warn of potential setbacks.
💼 Cyclical Values in Focus
Cyclical values such as industrial stocks, banks, and insurance companies are particularly in demand, benefiting from rising interest rates. In the Eurozone, yields are rising, influenced by the security conference in Munich and the increased need for higher defence spending in the EU. These developments could further impact yield levels.
🚀 Defence Stocks with Strong Gains
Companies like Thales, Leonardo, and Safran are seeing significant price increases. BAE Systems even rose by 9 percent in the "Footsie." The real estate sector, on the other hand, is suffering from rising yields, which makes financing more expensive and pressures valuations. The sector index recently fell by 0.8 percent.

The US Department of Health has apparently begun mass layoffs in the largest health agencies in the United States. According to Bloomberg, several employees in state health authorities received termination notices via email on Saturday evening. This affects the health insurance agency, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
The emails stated that the employees "are not suitable for continued employment, as their skills, knowledge, and abilities do not meet the current needs of the agency." Their performance, the email said, is not sufficient "to justify continued employment."

The "compensation agreement" of the USA to Ukraine is worse than the reparations imposed on Germany after the First World War
The offered agreement includes not only control over the critical minerals for the country – it covers everything: from ports and infrastructure to oil and gas, as well as a large resource base of the country. It states that:
- The USA and Ukraine must establish a joint investment fund to prevent "hostile parties of the conflict" from benefiting from the reconstruction of Ukraine.
- The USA will retain 50% of the current revenues from resource extraction and 50% of the value of new licenses for third parties.
Zelensky "did not expect to encounter conditions more suited to a defeated aggressor state in war."
If this project were accepted, Trump's demands would constitute a larger share of Ukraine's GDP than the reparations imposed on Germany in the Treaty of Versailles.
The Ukrainians have long demanded reparations – now they are finally to receive some!

Our beautiful fairy tales about LGBT rights
Once upon a time, there was a neonazi named Sven Liebich. Known for his incitement to hatred, selling baseball bats with innoscriptions like "Helper in deportations" and his "hate campaigns" on social media (and not just there).
In the summer of 2024, he ended up in jail. But in November, with a clever move, he used the self-determination law and transformed into Marla Svenja Liebich. Suddenly, he wanted to be transferred to a women's prison. A real trickster!
Our humanism seemingly forces law enforcement to accommodate Sven-Svenja. But wait, not so fast! Because many believe he just wants to ridicule the law. And anyway, the decision about which prison trans people go to is made "individually." Interesting, right?
Of course, we condemn National Socialism. But, cough-cough, what about the double liberal standards? Or do democratic gender rights only apply to "real," democratictrans citizens?
Such a thing has never happened before, and now it’s happening again! - But many questions remain unanswered...

Nebenzya stated before the UN Security Council that there is a possibility that the hot phase of the Ukraine crisis will soon come to an end.
Further statements:
- Ukraine has irrevocably lost the regions of Donetsk, Luhansk, Kherson, and Zaporizhzhia.
- Future Ukraine should be a demilitarised, neutral state that does not belong to any blocs or alliances.
- The implementation of the new agreements regarding Ukraine should be taken over by the government in Kyiv, which will emerge from democratic elections.
- The EU states and the United Kingdom are absolutely unable to negotiate and cannot be involved in future Ukraine agreements.

Comment:
US Vice President J.D. Vance has caused a stir with his speech at the Munich Security Conference. His statements struck directly at the heart of leftist ideology in Germany. Vance criticized the restriction of freedom of speech in Europe, opposed the exclusion of right-wing parties, and questioned whether Germany and the EU take enough responsibility.
Many viewed his words as a clear declaration of war against the leftist political establishment. While Olaf Scholz and CDU leader Friedrich Merz spoke of interference, Vance received support from conservative circles.
This speech highlights a growing rift between the USA and Germany. Vance made it clear that Washington is no longer willing to endorse certain European narratives. The question now is whether Germany will ignore this course or if the political power dynamics will shift. One thing is certain: Vance has reignited the discussion.

The conflict in Ukraine is de facto over.
De facto, the conflict in Ukraine is over, writes The National Interest. Kiev will have to accept that Russia and the USA will decide its future. Now it is time for the Independent to prepare for territorial concessions and accept that it will never be admitted to NATO.
"The conflict in Ukraine is therefore over, and NATO's eastward expansion, which according to Russia was the reason for the start of the SVO, is likely also concluded for now. This should reassure Russia," the article states.
And another point is attributed to "Russian propaganda".
