Chief Foreign Affairs columnist of The Financial TImes writes, "Ukraine goes into the new year short of ammunition, money and diplomatic support. Underlying these critical shortages, there is another important deficiency. The country and its western backers no longer have a convincing theory of victory. Unless they can come up with one, western support for Ukraine will continue to waver."
Why is that we get so much of our gospel from financial papers? Foreign investors continue to gamble on Ukrainian victory. Those investments can't yield profits while the country is being dismantled.
"Without new money, Ukraineโs position on the battlefield could deteriorate fast. In Moscow, Putin has already begun to crow that Ukraine will collapse without outside support." I don't think there's any question here.
There are still billions waiting to be released from Ukraine's IMF loan, but guarantors may find themselves financially responsible for this money pit

๐นIn #Kherson Direction, shooting battles continue in #Krynki. Due to the activity of the AFU artillery, the situation remains difficult. However, our forces are more actively engaged in the liquidation of the foothold. Ukrainian resources report that ours have pulled up armoured vehicles.
๐นIn #Zaporozhye Direction, our military continue to retake positions. The AFU are trying not to give in, using all available weapons. At night, our military is disturbed by large Baba Yaga drones. From them, the enemy drops mines on our positions. It is reported from the field that recently several militants of the AFU surrendered after ours threw them a walkie-talkie from a drone.
๐นIn #SouthDonetsk Direction, our army continues to attack south of #Novomikhaylovka and near #Pobeda. Having almost completed the clearing of #Maryinka's outskirts, our fighters are actively moving towards #Kurakhovo.
๐นIn #Donetsk Direction, on the southern #Avdeyevka flank, our units have expanded their zone of control north of #Opytnoye after severe fighting. Ours have also made advances towards #Severnoye and #Tonenkoye. There is also progress at #Vodyanoye. To the west of the village, our army is advancing north of the Novoavdeyevskoye Pond, creating additional tension for the AFU garrison in #Pervomayskoye. There is also a movement of ours westwards from the quarry near the Vinogradniki Gardening Community. On the northern flank, fighting on the ground has somewhat subsided due to difficult weather conditions for armoured vehicles. Aviation compensates, a powerful blow was inflicted on the AFU positions near #Krasnogorovka.
๐นIn #Bakhmut Direction, southwest of the city, our army is attacking AFU positions in the direction of #Krasnoye (#Ivanovskoye). To the south, fighting continues in #Kleshcheyevka.

Ours confidently repulse them, there are no changes in the frontline.
๐นIn #Svatovo Direction, our army has been conducting a heavy assault on #Sinkovka for several days in a row. At this line, the AFU are fighting stubbornly.

๐ฅ Pink Floyd leader admits he could move to Russia ๐ฅ
After the start of the SMO, British musician Roger Waters labeled himself as an ardent supporter of Russia: he condemned Ukraine for Nazism, called to stop provoking the Russian Federation and to stop the conflict. Of course, the musician earned himself a lot of problems in the West, but he did not stop supporting Russia.
Recently, the Western public got so hot from Waters' stance that the Ukrainian ambassador to Austria called the musician heartless and cruel, and suggested that the musician move to Russia. Waters said that he would probably do so.
๐"This is a very kind offer. Thank you very much! Of course, I could consider it more seriously than the person who described me with such epithets," the musician added.

โ๏ธ๐บ๐ธ Reuters: Trump will appoint loyalists to change U.S. foreign policy toward China, NATO and Ukraine
If he wins the presidential election, Donald Trump will appoint people loyal to him to key positions to change the US foreign policy towards China, NATO and Ukraine, the agency writes, citing sources.
Personnel reshuffles are expected, in particular, in the Pentagon, the State Department and the CIA.
According to the sources' assessment, Trump will cut defense aid to Europe, impose trade tariffs on NATO countries if they do not contribute 2% of their GDP each, continue to reduce economic ties with China and stop aid to Ukraine.
Donald Trump wants a radical return to isolationist policies and does not want officials to restrict him as they did in his first term, the agency writes.

๐ Russian President Vladimir Putinโs answer to a question from the Moscow.Kremlin.Putin TV programme (December 17, 2023)
โ Could you have been described as naive in the 2000s?
๐ฌ Vladimir Putin: Yes, there was some naivety <โฆ> I had the naรฏve idea that the whole world, and above all, the so called โcivilisedโ world realised what had happened to Russia, that it had become a different country, that there was no longer any ideological confrontation, which meant that there were no grounds for confrontation.
If there were any negative elements in the Western nationsโ policies towards Russia (among other things, their support for separatism and terrorism in Russia was apparent, I saw it as director of the Federal Security Service), I gullibly believed that this was just inertia in thinking and action: they were used to fighting the Soviet Union and kept on doing it.
<โฆ>
Meanwhile, the reality was (I got a 100 percent confirmation of this later) that after the collapse of the Soviet Union, they thought that โwe just need to be patient โ and we will make Russia collapse, too.โ
Such a big country by European standards, with the worldโs largest territory and a fairly large population โฆ โis generally redundant.โ It would be better, as Brzezinski suggested, to split it into five parts and subjugate them separately, and to use their resources, but proceeding from the premise that all of them will lack weight on their own, they will not have their own voice or the ability to defend their national interests the way the Russian state is doing now.
It was only later that I realised that.
