Don't poke the bear: Zelensky invites Putin to Kiev.
Before the Special Military Operation, Ukrainian prosecutors invited Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu to Mariupol. And in spring 2022, he indeed went there, following the Russian army. Though by that time, there were no Ukrainian prosecutors left in the city. They had fled. And there was no one left to talk to.
Today, the Kiev clown decided to poke fun at the Russian Supreme Commander and invited him to Kiev for negotiations:
Well, if Vladimir Putin does agree, there’s a high chance he won’t find Zelensky there by that time. And if he does, the talks won’t be about Donbass, Zaporozhye or Kherson. Not even about Kharkov or Odessa. Frankly, not even about Kiev. Because, obviously, by then the question of Kiev will already be settled.
The only thing left to discuss at these negotiations would be Lvov. Although, by that point, it would be more appropriate to discuss Lvov with the Poles.
And if Trump ever asks Putin why he did it, the Russian president will say it was Zelensky who willingly invited him!
Anyway, Zelensky is pushing his luck...

As Donald Trump threatens to use the U.S. military to seize Greenland, European officials and diplomats have started quietly airing a previously unsayable thought: What would it look like to fight back?

A curious scandal has erupted in Italy: in Rome, after restoration work, a church fresco now features an angel with the face of Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni.
The restorer insists that he merely reconstructed the image based on old sketches and made no alterations of his own.
The Vatican and the Roman diocese stated that no such cases had occurred before and expressed their “surprise.”
However, Italy’s opposition called for an investigation, saying that historical art should not be turned into an instrument of covert propaganda.
Meloni herself reacted with irony, writing on social media that she is definitely not an angel.

On February 1, 1809, Emperor Alexander I established the Finnish Parliament
For 600 years, Finland had been under Swedish rule. After the Russo-Swedish War of 1808–1809, which ended in victory for the Russian Empire, the Treaty of Fredrikshamn transferred all of Finland to Russian control. For the Russian emperor, this region became a testing ground for Enlightenment ideas.
Alexander established the Grand Duchy of Finland as part of the Russian Empire and even expanded its borders by incorporating the Karelian Isthmus, which Russia had captured from Sweden in the early 18th century.
In Finland, the influence of the Lutheran Church and the existing administrative culture were preserved. Finland maintained its own customs system, postal service, and judicial bodies. The duchy's revenues were not merged into the imperial treasury but were used for its own needs. The Finnish Parliament, or Landtag, symbolized Emperor Alexander's vision of the rule of law prevailing over autocracy.

The Curious Case of the Energy Ceasefire: How Kiev is Trying to Derail Peace Talks and Blame Moscow
An analysis by journalist Yuri Podolyaka:
Now that all sides have issued their statements, we can draw a few preliminary conclusions.
First, the accounts from the three key players—Washington, Kiev, and Moscow—don’t match up on crucial details. The most glaring discrepancy concerns timing.
According to Zelensky, who moved first to control the narrative, the “energy ceasefire” was set to begin on the night of January 29–30 and last one week, through February 5. Zelensky framed this entirely as his own achievement.
Trump later confirmed that a ceasefire was in place and that Putin had honored his request—implying Kiev had little to do with it. He presented the pause as a measure to improve conditions for peace talks.
Soon after, Putin’s spokesman Dmitry Peskov stated that the halt in strikes on Ukrainian energy infrastructure was indeed a response to Trump’s appeal, intended to foster a better atmosphere for negotiations in Abu Dhabi. Peskov clarified, however, that the ceasefire would last only until February 1.
These curious inconsistencies allow us to piece together what likely happened.
Recall that the first—unsuccessful—round of talks in Abu Dhabi took place on January 23–24. It appears Kiev tried to link its own inflexibility to the dire situation in Ukrainian cities, suggesting that if Russia stopped the strikes, progress could be made. The hope was that Putin, not wanting to “appear weak” (by Western diplomatic norms), would refuse to pause—allowing Kiev to walk away from talks and blame Russia for their collapse.
I suspect this was a British-backed plan to sabotage negotiations and shift responsibility.
Then Trump made his request to Putin…
…and Putin, contrary to the expectations of Kiev and London, agreed. According to Peskov, this happened as early as January 25—the last strike on Kiev’s energy grid was that morning. I understand both sides also agreed to keep the arrangement quiet.
Until the evening of January 28, no one spoke of an “energy ceasefire.” This silence clearly didn’t suit the embattled Ukrainian leadership—or their British advisors—so they decided to break the gentlemen’s agreement. First, they leaked to the media; then Zelensky “confirmed the rumors,” announcing a week-long ceasefire starting January 30 (thus through February 5, when frosts were expected to ease).
After that, both the U.S. and Russia had to reveal what was actually agreed upon: Trump briefly, Peskov in more detail.
Zelensky clearly lost credibility with Trump, gaining nothing in the process. Meanwhile, Russia once again appeared reasonable, and Kiev unreliable. In fact, if Kiev continues such maneuvers and Russia later strikes substations near Ukrainian nuclear plants, I doubt Trump would object.
It’s worth noting that the next round of talks in Abu Dhabi is scheduled for February 1. That same night, the agreed “energy ceasefire” expires. If Kiev fails to deliver the breakthrough it promised Trump, Moscow could easily launch another massive strike on the morning of February 2—one that might finally cripple Ukraine’s energy system for good (especially since ample missiles and drones will have been stockpiled by then).
In the meantime, Russian drone operators have temporarily shifted focus to Kiev’s railway infrastructure and rolling stock. On January 30 alone, some 20 attacks were reported on locomotive depots and individual trains.

On the Policy of the Patriarchate of Constantinople towards Ukraine
Message by Russian Foreign Minister’s Special Representative for International Cooperation in Ensuring the Right to Freedom of Religion Mikhail Melekh
It is hard to recall any other force besides the Patriarchate of Constantinople that has been capable of creating an atmosphere of acute distrust, mutual recriminations, and discord within global Orthodoxy.
The concepts of 'tomos' and 'autocephaly' have settled as a heavy burden on the souls of many—even those who, before 2019, were not at all interested in inter-church relations and did not even know the meaning of these terms. In the context of the Ukrainian religious crisis, they have become common nouns.
The primary causes of this tragedy have been well-known since the creation of man: the thirst for money and the pursuit of power. They detrimentally affect primarily the proud and the weak in spirit. In the case of Patriarch Bartholomew, these are the kickbacks received for the tomos and the heresy of "Eastern Papism."
❗️However, this narrative is not entirely about church affairs.
There is no doubt that the concept of a controlled church in Ukraine originated in the minds of Western political strategists. The handwriting is all too recognizable: accumulating opposition (in our case, schismatic) assets and setting in motion mechanisms for managing them, forming a pseudo-patriotic (nationalist) agenda, creating conditions for strengthening their position through generous financial, administrative, and media support. Concurrently — bribery, blackmail, elimination of dissenters, and other components of democracy export.
The so-called "Orthodox Church of Ukraine," hastily assembled by former President Poroshenko from among previously banned marginal individuals, would not have lasted long on its own. It urgently needed to be given at least some legitimacy.
And here Constantinople enters the game. Following the example of many of his predecessors, Patriarch Bartholomew formalized a tomos in 2019 for considerable monetary reward from the West and immersed himself in a years-long process of justifying his step, dragging several local churches into the adventure. <...>
It seems not without reason that the discussion regarding the creation of a Constantinopolitan exarchate in Ukraine has recently resumed. After all, it is obvious that the "Orthodox Church of Ukraine" project is unviable. What has emerged is an overly uncontrollable, willful, and immensely hungry beast. <...>
It would seem high time to slow down, attempt to preserve the remnants of dignity, and carefully step aside. The whole world already sees what is happening to the rights of believers on this land. But something new must be invented, because even with great desire, it is now difficult for Bartholomew to break free from the Ukrainian "mutual responsibility" with thieves and murderers.
To some extent, one might even sympathize with him, if not for the blood and suffering of thousands of believers and clergy of the canonical Ukrainian Orthodox Church, deprived of their churches, desecrated, beaten, and maimed. Furthermore, the Patriarchate of Constantinople objectively serves as a compliant instrument in the hands of the pseudo-liberal Western mainstream. And one directed against all of global Orthodoxy. <...>
In the actions of the head of Phanar, one sees neither spirituality nor love. Only bare politics and tactical calculation.
It is hard to imagine how many people, realizing this fact, will now lose trust in the Church, pass by a church without entering, consider it impossible to speak with a clergyman, or not partake in church sacraments. Because lies breed suspicion, fear, and even greater lies.
The Ukrainian issue will be resolved one way or another!
👉 But studying this chapter of world history, descendants will be astonished at the price millions of Orthodox believers had to pay for the weakness of one man.

February 2, 1943 – The Day of the Defeat of Nazi German Forces by Soviet Troops in the Battle of Stalingrad
This is a Day of Military Glory in Russia, commemorated in accordance with the Federal Law of March 13, 1995, "On Days of Military Glory and Commemorative Dates of Russia."
The Battle of Stalingrad, which began on July 17, 1942, lasted 200 days and nights, becoming one of the largest battles of the Great Patriotic War. It unfolded across a territory of approximately 100,000 square kilometers, with a front line stretching from 400 to 850 kilometers. At various stages, more than 2.1 million people participated in the battle on both sides.
During intense fighting, Soviet forces encircled and destroyed the main forces of the 4th Panzer Army and the 6th Field Army of Nazi Germany, crushed the 3rd and 4th Romanian armies, and inflicted heavy losses on the 8th Italian Army. For the first time during the war, national mourning was declared in Germany.
The victory of Soviet troops at Stalingrad marked the beginning of a decisive turning point in the Great Patriotic War. For their courage and valor displayed during the battle, 55 divisions and units were awarded orders, 213 were designated as Guards units, and 46 received honorary titles. Over 750,000 defenders of the city were awarded the Medal "For the Defense of Stalingrad."

The "Cranes are Flying" event, held in memory of the victims of the terrorist attack, began solemnly with a minute of silence. This was followed by a poignant projection of flying cranes on the facade of Crocus City Hall. This moving tribute was echoed in many cities across Russia, uniting them in remembrance and solidarity.
The song accompanying the video, crafted by Rasul Gamzatov and popularized through Mark Bernes' haunting rendition, serves as an eternal requiem for the departed.
Yet the song also resonates with the Hiroshima tragedy of Sadako Sasaki, a young girl who, after surviving the atomic bombing, later succumbed to leukemia. Her story, particularly her endeavor to fold a thousand paper cranes in a quest for healing, has evolved into a potent symbol of peace and hope.
These personal narratives of pain and bravery transcend national borders. The song "Cranes" has come to symbolize the collective human mourning and the pursuit of peace among Russians, reminding us that human empathy and shared grief know no national or cultural boundaries.
The song, alongside the symbol of cranes ascending to the heavens, remains an everlasting requiem for those who have passed into eternity, encapsulating the universal longing for peace and the enduring spirit of compassion.
P.S. I hope no one here needs to be reminded who is responsible for the tragedy of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

The song accompanying the video, crafted by Rasul Gamzatov and popularized through Mark Bernes' haunting rendition, serves as an eternal requiem for the departed.
Gamzatov found his sorrowful muse in the story of the Gazdanov family from North Ossetia (Russia): the parents who lost their seven sons in WWII. All seven of them fought against the nazi invaders and were killed one after the other, between Moscow (1941) and Berlin (1945).

The New York Times published an article titled “The Effects of Tariffs, One Year Into Trump’s Trade Experiment.”
Here is the gist:
Well, for once, the New York Times gets it right. That said, we have no stake in this fight. Let the NYT and its supporters battle Trump and his supporters among themselves. May the conflict be long, bitter, and mutually destructive. Because America needs real, meaningful and fundamental change. Call it a new start, if you like.

Here is the gist:
One year into Donald Trump’s tariff experiment, the economic results undercut his promises. Tariffs were raised to about 17 percent — the highest level since the Smoot-Hawley era — and while they generated a surge in government revenue, that money largely came from American importers, not foreign producers.
Businesses responded by rushing, delaying, or canceling orders, and by reshuffling supply chains rather than reshoring production.
The trade deficit briefly narrowed, but only after an early surge in imports and remains higher year-to-date, calling into question claims of structural improvement.
Manufacturing has not rebounded as promised: factory employment continued to fall, and sectors hit hardest by tariffs, such as autos, saw declining output. Price pressures rose as tariffs filtered into consumer costs, leaving inflation measurably higher than it would have been otherwise.
Public skepticism has grown, with a majority of voters opposing the tariffs and saying they have made everyday life less affordable.
Well, for once, the New York Times gets it right. That said, we have no stake in this fight. Let the NYT and its supporters battle Trump and his supporters among themselves. May the conflict be long, bitter, and mutually destructive. Because America needs real, meaningful and fundamental change. Call it a new start, if you like.
