*🤝 Foreigners moving to Russia will be helped with work and settling in.* In the country, an office to support citizens of other countries moving to other countries will open, President Putin announced.

Following the fuel oil spill in the Kerch Strait, 280 hectares of beaches need to be restored and about 840 thousand cubic meters of new sand need to be delivered there, said Russian Minister of Natural Resources Alexander Kozlov.

Fuel oil is currently being pumped out of the Volgoneft-239 tanker, which washed up on the shore of Taman. It is planned to be completed on January 31. However, the decision on how to raise the fuel oil from the bottom has not yet been made. In addition, it is necessary to decide what to do with the sunken parts of another tanker, which also contain fuel oil - they will either be raised or the oil products will be pumped out, it was reported at a meeting attended by the Russian president.

At the same time, as Deputy Prime Minister Vitaly Savelyev said, no new large-scale emissions of fuel oil were recorded.

The significant ones I want to comment on:

#9 - Good he’s aligning with Russia on this one.

#11 - Maybe the Secretary of State office will finally reopen and start providing expedited service again, after 4 years of being closed.

#16 - Well, maybe it is better to continue in WHO, but not let their policies dictate US policy, like Russia does.

#17 - I wonder if Ukraine can survive 90 days without US funding, or if it will ever be reinstated. I view this as two possible scenarios: 1) He’ll use this time for negotiating with Russia, as a sign of good faith, or 2) He plans to end the SMO one way or another. Let’s hope.

#18 - This doesn’t surprise me. But I doubt Byte Dance will let this go. Or maybe they’ll create a US subsidiary to own it.

Thoughts?

Come on.. Let's get Andy over 1000!
