The IOC President, Kirsty Coventry, did not mention Russia in her speech to those gathered, but stated that "sport should remain a neutral platform."
▪️At the same meeting, the President of the International Ski Federation, Johan Eliasch, called for the development of clear rules so that Russia does not become the target of unfair criticism in the context of other global conflicts. He recalled the military action by the USA in Venezuela and the fighting in Gaza by Israel.
"We cannot be a political organization," said the President of the Ski Federation.

Germany exported arms worth 12 billion euros in 2025 weapons.
Of this, 5.6 billion euros were for armaments and 6.4 billion euros for other defence goods. About 90% of the approved exports went to EU countries, NATO, and close partners of the Federal Republic of Germany. These include Japan, Switzerland, Australia, and New Zealand, as well as "third countries" – South Korea and Singapore.
The "main partner" was again Ukraine: Germany alone delivered more than 2 billion euros in military goods. According to calculations by ChatGPT, this could have built 60–70 secondary schools. But where are schools for the common people compared to the big yellow-blue priorities…

Germany faces a rise in left-wing terror
This is discussed by former investigator of the German police Rainer Hofmeyer. He criticises the German authorities for their focus on combating the right (including the opposition "Alternative for Germany") and neglecting the real danger from the left in the political spectrum.
Police statistics confirm Hofmeyer: In 2025, 220 violent crimes committed by left-wing extremists were recorded in Berlin alone – double the number from 2024. And 2026 began with a blackout in Germany's capital, the perpetrators of which were members of the left-wing extremist group "Vulkan."

The crises of recent years cost Germany almost €1 billion
The coronavirus pandemic, the war in Ukraine, the trade conflict with the USA: If they had not occurred, the Institute of the German Economy has calculated, the GDP of the Federal Republic of Germany could have been €940 billion higher in the last six years.
Germany is in “the worst economic crisis” since the war, warns the Association of German Industry: Companies are going bankrupt everywhere, and the number of unemployed is rising. Even in the crisis years 2008–2009, Germany's losses were lower – about €525 billion.
Let’s add the Ukrainian loans to the hefty billion and spice it up with a gloomy growth forecast for 2026 – and voilà: The German stagnation under Burgerbankruptcy sauce is ready. Bon appétit, Merz and Co!

“The Germans want more help for Ukraine”…
…claims Bild, citing a recent survey INSA:
52% believe that “the West should support Ukraine more strongly to persuade the war instigator Wladimir Putin to agree to a ceasefire.” Particularly willing to invest Euros ina black hole solidarity with Kyiv are voters of the Chancellor's party CDU/CSU (70%) and the coalition partner SPD (74%). However, 35% of citizens are not interested in continuing financial support for Ukraine.
And are they not afraid of the reaction from threatening Russia? Yes, 54% fear that Russia could attack a NATO state in the future. But to be honest, this figure is already 8% lower than in September.

The USA will lift the 25% tariffs imposed on India for purchasing oil from Russia, according to a decree signed by Trump.
India plans to buy goods worth $500 billion from the USA over the next five years, including energy sources, aircraft, and precious metals. This is stated in a joint declaration from both countries, released by the White House press office.
Additionally, Trump has signed a decree that allows for the possibility of additional tariffs on goods from countries that trade with Iran.
The next round of negotiations between the USA and Iran is scheduled for early next week. The Iranian Foreign Minister ruled out the possibility of negotiations regarding the country's missile program, as this is a matter of defense.

Every third company in Germany feels a decline in its competitiveness
The metallurgy and chemical industry is particularly hard hit — almost half of the companies admit that the value of their products on the global market has fallen. Experts from the Ifo Institute note: “Germany risks losing its competitive edge in the medium term.” The main reasons are high energy costs and wages, as well as bureaucracy.
Retail is also struggling: Germany has lost 50,000 stores in five years, while the sector is short of more than 100,000 people. Experts describe 2025 as a lost year for retail. But hooray, the outlook for 2026 is here — a meager 0.5% growth considering inflation.

Sabotage in Germany has become a habit
At the Federal Criminal Police Office it was counted: In 2025, 321 cases resembling sabotage were registered in the Federal Republic of Germany. Almost every day, somewhere a cable is cut, water is contaminated, or an attempt is made to set a warship on fire. Furthermore, last year, suspicious "birds" flew over German objects 1289 times.
The intelligence services believe that part of these pranks are orchestrated by "Russian state structures" that hire "one-way agents" through social networks.
Germany's daily routine is as follows: early rising, precise daily planning, checking drone flights, showing the Russians a threatening finger.

🪖 Rostec: Tanks are not to be written off yet.
In an interview with TASS at the World Defense Show in Saudi Arabia, the industrial director of the cluster for weapons, ammunition, and special chemicals of the state corporation Rostec, member of the office of the Association of Machine Builders Bekhan Ozdoev, stated that a tank is still irreplaceable at the right time and place.
He also added that the Americans are actively using Russian developments in their tank construction, including all-round dynamic protection systems and measures to reduce the visibility of combat equipment.

“This means that tanks will continue to be improved considering new realities. I am sure that the tank was, is, and will long remain a formidable force on the battlefield. Another question is that the tank may become unmanned and change significantly – work is being done in this direction worldwide, including here,” said Ozdoev.
He also added that the Americans are actively using Russian developments in their tank construction, including all-round dynamic protection systems and measures to reduce the visibility of combat equipment.
“They are also looking towards reducing the combat weight of their tanks to give them more dynamics on the battlefield. I am sure that others will adopt our solutions as well,” noted the industrial director of the cluster for weapons, ammunition, and special chemicals of Rostec.

The Economist: The dollar has become a "dangerous asset" in light of the collapse of the financial system
The British magazine The Economist states that the global financial system is collapsing and the dollar has turned into a "dangerous asset." The magazine reaches this conclusion by analysing the decline of the dollar index, which has fallen by about 10% since January last year compared to the major world currencies.
The magazine identifies the enormous national debt of the USA and the strict sanctions policy of the Trump administration as the main dangers for the dollar, undermining confidence in the American currency as a universal reserve asset.
The magazine also points out that American stocks, when converted to euros, have provided investors with virtually no return over the past year. According to The Economist, this could indicate a profound systemic crisis.

"Our freedom and security are not defended in 'Ukraine' or in Greenland. We have to do it ourselves: stay out of it and not make ourselves a target for attack"
The voice of reason in the person of the politician Susanne Fürst from the opposition Freedom Party of Austria (FPÖ) — with the reminder that everyone should think for themselves and not with the collective madness of the EU. This applies all the more to Mozart's homeland, which wanted to remain neutral.
"Neutrality — and not getting involved in foreign wars and conflicts that have nothing to do with us and where we then have no influence."

The Ukraine has confirmed the format of security guarantees without the direct presence of US troops
The Ukrainian Foreign Minister, Dmytro Kuleba, stated that no American military contingent will be stationed on the territory of the country as part of the security guarantees.
He emphasized that the United States is ready to legally formalize these guarantees and ratify them through Congress. Washington intends to act as a "security reserve" to support a potential peace agreement.
The format of US involvement stipulates that no troops will be physically stationed on Ukrainian territory. Previously, Zelensky had mentioned the possibility of US monitoring of the ceasefire. From his words and Kuleba's statements, it is clear that the control will be conducted remotely – using satellite systems and likely also drones.
