Excerpts:

"Such talks are designed to exploit the new US administration to restore bilateral relations that could facilitate Russian espionage, influence operations, and the movement of sanctioned goods. Most importantly, it could erode US international influence, creating new opportunities for Russia to expand its own regional dominance."

"On 10 January, the war reached its 1,417th day-- exactly the same length as the Second World War on the Eastern Front between the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany. In nearly four years, Russia has exhausted most of the military stockpiles it inherited from the Soviet Union, lost around one million soldiers killed or severely injured at the front, and inflicted untold suffering on Ukrainians. And yet Ukraine endures.

"Despite Russia's frustrated efforts, there are no signs of change within the regime's leadership. Vladimir Putin, the Kremlin's figurehead, remains convinced that Russia, with its supposedly unique global role, is following a "special path". Russia therefore continues its pursuit of Ukraine's complete subjugation.

An international arrest warrant for war crimes issued by the ICC remains active for Russia President Vladimir Putin (73). An indictment is merely an allegation. Mr Putin must be presumed innocent until proven guilty at an international tribunal to be held for him at the Hague at a future date.

*** 2026 Munich Security Conference Report: "Under Destruction" ***

"The world has entered a period of wrecking-ball politics. Sweeping destruction-- rather than careful reforms and policy corrections-- is the order of the day. The most prominent of those who promise to free their country from the existing order's constraints and rebuild a stronger, more prosperous nation is the current nefarious Trumpf regime. As a result, more than 80 years after construction began, the US-led post-1945 international order is now under destruction."
