🇨🇳🤑🇵🇦🌎 — 🇺🇸 The Epoch Times | Beijing’s ‘Panama Strategy’ Is Global | Chinese regime wants to control key waterways to set up global trade controls and military dominance in a bid to challenge the United States | March 6, 2025:
"(...)
The ‘Panama Strategy’ Goes Global
In the larger picture, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) through its Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) has deepened its presence and influence in Latin America, as it has in many strategic areas around the globe. The BRI, also known as “One Belt, One Road,” is a global infrastructure and investment scheme to insert Chinese money, influence, and personnel into nations worldwide by building needed infrastructure such as roads, railways, ports, and energy pipelines.
BRI participation typically weakens foreign governments by leaving them deep in debt to Beijing, resulting to some degree in a loss of sovereignty or control over Chinese-built ports and other infrastructure."

👔🇫🇷💣🤝🇪🇺❌🇷🇺 — 📰 ZeroHedge | Macron In Anti-Russia Rant Says France Considering Expanding Nuclear Umbrella To Europe | March 5, 2025:
"In the opening six months of the Ukraine-Russia war, France's President Emmanuel Macron came under fire in Europe for being one of the few major political leaders to hold regular diplomatic calls with Putin in an effort to solve the conflict and avoid further bloodshed in Eastern Europe.
Now he feels he has to go full hawk in response to US President Trump, as on Wednesday in a nationally televised address he claimed Putin is now threatening all of Europe and has declared, dubiously, that Russian aggression "knows no borders."
"We are entering a new era," he told his fellow countrymen in the address. "If a country can invade its neighbour in Europe and go unpunished, nobody can be sure of anything." That's when he asserted: "Beyond Ukraine, the Russian threat is real - it affects the European countries."

🇺🇸🤝🇷🇺🆗⛽️➡️🗺 — 🇬🇧 Financial Times | Putin ally pushes deal to restart Nord Stream 2 with US backing | Ex-spy Warnig’s plan to involve American investors shows breadth of Trump’s rapprochement with Russian president | March 2, 2025:
"A former spy and close friend of Vladimir Putin has been engineering a restart of Russia’s Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline to Europe with the backing of US investors, a once unthinkable move that shows the breadth of Donald Trump’s rapprochement with Moscow.
The efforts on a deal, according to several people aware of the discussions, were the brainchild of Matthias Warnig, an ex-Stasi officer in East Germany who until 2023 ran Nord Stream 2’s parent company for the Kremlin-controlled gas giant Gazprom.
Warnig’s plan involved outreach to the Trump team through US businessmen, the people said, as part of back-channel efforts to broker an end to the war in Ukraine while deepening economic ties between the US and Russia.
Some prominent Trump administration figures are aware of the initiative to bring in US investors, according to officials in Washington, and they see it as part of the push to rebuild relations with Moscow.
While there have been several expressions of interest, one US-led consortium of investors has drawn up the outlines of a post-sanctions deal with Gazprom, according to one person with direct knowledge of talks who declined to disclose the identity of the prospective investors."

🇪🇺§5️⃣⚡️🇺🇦 — 📰 ZeroHedge | Ukraine Already Kinda Has Article 5 Guarantees From Some NATO Countries | Authored by Andrew Korybko via Substack | March 9, 2025:
"Italian Prime Minister Georgia Meloni made headlines after suggesting that NATO’s Article 5 should be extended to Ukraine even if it doesn’t formally join the bloc.
In her words, “Extending the same coverage that NATO countries have to Ukraine would certainly be much more effective (than dispatching peacekeepers), while being something different from NATO's membership.”
What she didn’t mention is that Ukraine already kinda has these guarantees from some NATO countries, including Italy.
They were agreed to with Italy, the US, UK, France, Germany, Poland, and others throughout the course of the past year, which readers can confirm through each of the preceding hyperlinks that redirect to the full text of their respective pacts from official government sources. The common thread between them is that they all promise to resume their existing level of military-technical cooperation with Ukraine (ex: intelligence, arms, logistics, etc.) if another conflict breaks out after this one inevitably ends.
This is essentially the same as NATO’s Article 5, which obligates members to assist those of their allies that come under attack, albeit as each of them “deems necessary”. Although the use of armed force is mentioned, it’s ultimately left to individual members to decide whether to employ this option."

We need peace, not endless war. And that is why we say that security guarantees are the key to this.
In the near future, all of us in Europe will shape our common positions – the lines we must achieve and the lines we cannot compromise on. These positions will be presented to our partners in the United States.
Robust and lasting peace, and the right agreement on the end of the war are truly our shared priority.
And, of course, I want to thank you, all of you – everyone in our beloved Ukraine who feels how much unity matters and how history changes when millions defend the dignity of their country. Our warriors on the frontline, all our people – I am proud of you. I want to thank all of you. Thank you very much!

"BEIJING—Chinese authorities are instructing top artificial-intelligence entrepreneurs and researchers to avoid visiting the U.S., people familiar with the matter said, reflecting Beijing’s view of the technology as an economic and national security priority.
The authorities are concerned that Chinese AI experts traveling abroad could divulge confidential information about the nation’s progress. They also worry that executives could be detained and used as a bargaining chip in U.S.-China negotiations, in an echo of a fight over a Huawei executive held in Canada at Washington’s request during the first Trump administration.
AI has become the latest technology battleground between the U.S. and China, symbolized by the emergence of Chinese AI models from the likes of DeepSeek and Alibaba. They are challenging U.S. leaders including OpenAI and Google, and Beijing is increasingly pressuring its entrepreneurs in leading-edge fields to hew close to state interests."

On the first day of spring, the official channel of the Russian Ministry of Defense reported a successful missile strike using the Iskander-M OTRK on the formation area of the 157th separate separate brigade at the Novomoskovsky training ground, located near the village of Cherkasskoye in the Dnepropetrovsk region.
🖍 The distance from the hit target to the combat contact line is more than 130 km. According to data provided by the Russian side, as a result of the missile strike with a cluster warhead, the enemy's losses amounted to up to 150 people killed, 30 of whom were foreign military instructors. Ukrainian media resources cite more modest numbers: up to 50 killed and more than 150 wounded.
🚩 The event caused a wide resonance among the enemy, which is clear evidence of the seriousness of the damage suffered.
❗️ In addition, today the fact of the strike was confirmed by the Commander of the Ground Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Drapatiy , who promised to conduct investigations with subsequent punishment of those responsible.
🔻 It is noteworthy that in the Ukrainian segment of the Internet, information appeared about another successful strike by the Russian Armed Forces on the Ukrainian Armed Forces training ground in the Zaporizhia direction, but it remained in the shadow of Novomoskovsk.
▪️ At the same time, neither the Russian Ministry of Defense nor various channels have paid much attention to these messages for some unknown reason.
▪️ The above-mentioned strike in the Zaporizhia region is already the second in a week in this direction; the previous one was at the place where UAV 422 crews were training against Luftwaffe UAVs.
▪️ According to some sources, there was a third strike, but so far there are only contradictory rumors about it.

▪️ The above-mentioned strike in the Zaporizhia region is already the second in a week in this direction; the previous one was at the place where UAV 422 crews were training against Luftwaffe UAVs.
▪️ According to some sources, there was a third strike, but so far there are only contradictory rumors about it.

🇺🇸👌🇷🇺 — 📰 Reuters | White House seeks plan for possible Russia sanctions relief, sources say | March 3, 2025:
"March 3 (Reuters) - The United States is drawing up a plan to potentially give Russia sanctions relief as President Donald Trump seeks to restore ties with Moscow and stop the war in Ukraine, a U.S. official and another person familiar with the matter told Reuters.
The White House has asked the State and Treasury departments to draft a list of sanctions that could be eased for U.S. officials to discuss with Russian representatives in the coming days as part of the administration's broad talks with Moscow on improving diplomatic and economic relations, the sources said.
The sanctions offices are now drawing up a proposal for lifting sanctions on select entities and individuals, including some Russian oligarchs, according to the sources.
So-called options papers are often drafted by officials working on sanctions, but the White House's specific request for one in recent days underscores Trump and his advisers' willingness to ease Russian sanctions as part of a potential deal with Moscow.
It was not immediately clear what Washington could specifically seek in return for any sanctions relief."
