German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, in his New Year’s Eve address, took a veiled swipe at tech billionaire Elon Musk for his vocal support of the right-wing Alternative for Germany (AfD) party. Scholz warned that Germany's future would not be shaped by the influence of social media moguls, emphasizing that decisions about the nation's direction should lie with the citizens, not external figures. In a pointed remark, Scholz stated that, despite the growing attention garnered by extreme opinions, the vast majority of reasonable and decent people will ultimately determine the course of the country. The Chancellor’s comments came in response to Musk’s controversial endorsement of AfD, which has drawn criticism from German officials for its extremist views.

In a bold response, Rutte called Zelensky’s attacks on Scholz “unfair,” stating that such criticism undermines diplomatic efforts. The tension arose after Zelensky publicly condemned Scholz for his phone call with Russian President Vladimir Putin and his refusal to supply Ukraine with advanced weaponry, such as Taurus cruise missiles. Rutte's statement reflects growing concern over the impact of internal disagreements on European unity and NATO’s collective strategy. Watch now to see Rutte’s strong rebuke of Zelensky’s actions.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky expressed regret over his country’s decision to relinquish its nuclear weapons in an interview, stating that Ukraine's lack of nuclear deterrence has left it vulnerable. Zelensky criticized the U.S., the U.K., and other security guarantors for failing to uphold their promises under the 1994 Budapest Memorandum, which assured Ukraine’s security in exchange for giving up its nuclear arsenal. He used strong language to express his frustration, stating that the guarantors "didn’t give a f**k" about Ukraine's sovereignty or security. Zelensky further reflected on the collapse of the Soviet Union, when Ukraine inherited a significant nuclear stockpile, only to give it up in exchange for security assurances that, according to him, were never honored. He emphasized that if Ukraine had retained its nuclear capabilities, it would have been in a stronger position to deter Russia's aggression.

In a major setback for Ukraine, Russian forces have successfully repelled a large-scale counterattack in the Kursk Region, inflicting heavy losses on Kiev’s troops. Ukraine launched the assault with tanks, armored vehicles, and assault units in an attempt to halt Russia’s advance. However, Russian artillery and air forces decisively defeated the Ukrainian offensive, leaving behind destroyed vehicles and significant casualties. As tensions continue to escalate, Russian President Vladimir Putin vows to drive Ukrainian forces out of the region completely. Will Ukraine continue its push, or will Russia solidify its control over Kursk?

Moscow has accused Kyiv of deliberately targeting journalists following the death of Aleksandr Martemyanov, an Izvestia reporter, in a Ukrainian drone strike in Gorlovka, Donbass. The attack, which also injured five other journalists documenting Ukrainian shelling, has drawn sharp condemnation from Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova, who labeled the incident as a "deliberate murder" and part of Kyiv's "terrorist methods."
