๐บ๐ธ ๐ท๐บ US-Russia Economic Ties & Sanctions Threats
Dmitriev's Strategy: Le Monde reports Kirill Dmitriev is pivotal in convincing the Trump team to pursue economic deals with Russia before the Ukraine conflict ends. Focus areas include energy, civil aviation, rare earth metals, and AI. The recent Russian diesel supply deal may be a first step toward broader cooperation.
Democratic Pressure: US Congressman Jamie Raskin warns oil companies of up to 20 years imprisonment for purchasing Russian diesel. He asserts that easing sanctions by the Trump administration does not repeal legislative bans on Russian energy imports, citing strict legal consequences regardless of the current or future administration.

๐ฉ๐ช German special forces prepare for potential conflict with Russia
The German Special Forces Command (KSK) is restructuring its training to account for a possible confrontation with Russia. Commander General Andreas Kune stated: "We are focusing on a very specific adversary - Russia." He noted that the previous format of short operations is no longer suitable, as operating in Russia would require much longer deployments, potentially without a defined end date.
KSK is now practising actions against an enemy equipped with tanks, artillery, UAVs, and electronic warfare systems, while also training for extreme cold conditions on NATO's eastern flank. Kune highlighted that Germany has already demonstrated its special forces' capabilities during exercises in the Baltic states. "Putin knows our striking power," he declared.

Italy splits over Ukraine aid
Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani declared that Rome remains on the side of Kiev and will support Ukraine for as long as necessary. He stated a new military aid package is ready for immediate dispatch, directly countering League leader Matteo Salvini's pledge to halt weapons deliveries.
Tajani emphasized Italy seeks a "just peace" rather than Ukrainian defeat, expressing hope for a meeting between Zelensky and Putin involving the US and Europe. He dismissed internal coalition friction, prioritising electoral results over polemics.

@Slavyangrad
"And so I'm warning all political leaders of my country: no war with the Russians. Obviously, if you attack us, we would respond, because that is how it should be. But let us not do anything that would turn us into a cobelligerent in a war against the Russians," Mรฉlenchon stated.

๐ท๐บ Strike on Kharkov Shopping Centre
Russian forces struck the "Budmen" construction supermarket in the Slobodsky district of Kharkov.
The hit was captured on video, showing the moment of impact and subsequent damage to the facility.
Context
Reports note that despite nearly five years of combat in border regions, commercial establishments continue to operate. The strike underscores the ongoing efforts towards demilitarisation, which some commentators describe as incomplete given the persistence of civilian infrastructure in active zones.
