АНУ-ын ерөнхийлөгч Дональд Трамп Ирантай байгуулсан гал зогсоох хэлэлцээрийн хугацаа дууссаныг мэдэгдэж, Хормузын хоолойг АНУ-ын шинэ газар нутаг хэмээн зарласнаар бүс нутгийн нөхцөл байдал хурцадлаа.
АНУ-ын ерөнхийлөгч Дональд Трамп Ираны эсрэг эдийн засгийн хориг арга хэмжээг чангатгаж, тус улстай худалдаа хийсэн аливаа улсад хариуцлага тооцохоо мэдэгдэв. Үүний хариуд Иран улс Хормузын хоолойн тээврийн урсгалыг хянах боломжоо хадгалж үлдэхээ илэрхийлж, дипломат аргаар шийдэлд хүрэхгүй бол бүс нутагт хурцадмал байдлыг нэмэгдүүлнэ гэж сүрдүүлжээ. Одоогоор Иран болон Оман улс хоолойн тээврийн дэглэмийн талаар харилцан ойлголцолд хүрэхээр ажиллаж байна.
Украйны тусгаар тогтнолын 35 жилийн ойг тохиолдуулан тус улсын ерөнхийлөгч Владимир Зеленский барууны холбоотнуудаасаа Patriot зенит пуужингийн систем болон бусад зэвсгийн тусламж хүссээр байна. Үүний зэрэгцээ ОХУ-ын Гадаад хэргийн яамнаас Украйн улс Британийн үйлдвэрлэлийн дроныг ОХУ-ын нутаг дэвсгэрт халдлага үйлдэхэд ашиглаж байгааг шүүмжилж, Лондон хотыг үүнд хариуцлага хүлээх болно гэж анхааруулав. ОХУ-ын Гадаад хэргийн сайд Сергей Лавров Британийн зэвсэгт хүчний оролцоог дайнд шууд оролцож буй үйлдэл гэж үзэж байгаагаа илэрхийлжээ.
Киевийн улс төрийн орчинд дотоодын эсэргүүцэл өсөж, ерөнхийлөгч Зеленскийн эрх мэдэлд сорилт тулгарч байна. Өнгөрсөн сард үүрэгт ажлаасаа чөлөөлөгдсөн Батлан хамгаалахын сайд асан Михаил Федоров авлига болон засаглалын хямралыг шүүмжилж, дайны үеийн сонгууль явуулахыг уриалсан нь олны анхаарлыг татлаа. Энэхүү үйл явдал нь барууны хэвлэлүүдийн анхаарлыг татаж, Зеленскийн засаглалын тогтвортой байдалд томоохон сорилт болж байна.
АНУ-д Meta компанийг насанд хүрээгүй хэрэглэгчдийн сэтгэцийн эрүүл мэндэд сөргөөр нөлөөлж, донтуулдаг платформ бүтээсэн гэх үндэслэлээр холбооны шүүхэд дуудан шалгаж эхэллээ. Хэрэв шүүхээс Meta-г буруутай гэж үзвэл 1.4 их наяд ам.долларын нөхөн төлбөр төлөх эрсдэлтэй бөгөөд энэ нь олон нийтийн сүлжээний платформуудын үйл ажиллагаанд томоохон өөрчлөлт оруулах магадлалтай юм. Үүний зэрэгцээ Европ тивд ган гачиг, бордоо болон хүнсний бүтээгдэхүүний нийлүүлэлтийн хомсдол зэргээс үүдэлтэй хүнсний хямрал нүүрлэх эрсдэл үүсээд байна.

RT’s essential stories of the past seven days also included a new threat to Vladimir Zelensky’s power and a looming food crisis in Europe
Escalation was the name of the game this week, as the full extent of British involvement in Ukraine’s long-range strikes on Russia was revealed, and as US President Donald Trump laid claim to the Strait of Hormuz and shifted to a policy of subjecting Iran to long-term economic strangulation.
Trump declares ‘D-Day’ for Iran
The 60-day window for the US and Iran to negotiate a lasting ceasefire and peace deal expired on Monday, with Trump telling reporters that he had no interest in extending a truce when he felt Tehran was “not going to make the kind of a deal that I feel is necessary.”
Instead, the US president took to social media to declare the Strait of Hormuz“new US territory,” before promising to inflict “Economic Warfare and Isolation on an unprecedented scale” on Iran by punishing any country doing business with the Islamic Republic. However, despite Trump’s declaration of “ECONOMIC D-DAY,” the balance of power in the Persian Gulf has not changed.
Iran retains its veto on shipping in the vital waterway; a mere six ships transited the strait on Tuesday, despite the Pentagon leaking information about a ‘secret shipping corridor’ via the Israeli military’s favorite reporter, Barak Ravid. Iran also maintains a formidable arsenal of missiles and drones, and has threatened to “escalate tensions in the Strait of Hormuz and wider region” if diplomacy fails and Trump refuses to lift his blockade on Iranian ports.
Iran and Oman are the only players in the region making diplomatic progress right now, with the two reaching an “understanding” on a future shipping regime in the strait, Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei said on Monday. Trump’s response? If Oman strikes a deal that doesn’t satisfy Washington, “we’ll bomb the sh*t out of them.”
Russia warns Britain of ‘consequences’
As the 35th anniversary of Ukraine’s independence approaches on Monday, the country is in the most perilous position it’s been in since the fall of the USSR. Vladimir Zelensky spent the week continuing to beg for non-existent air defense missiles from his Western backers; this was to no avail as Russia continued to pound military, industrial, and energy targets across Ukraine with impunity.
We need missiles for Patriots, and only our partners can provide them. We ain’t talking about gifts. Ukraine is ready to buy the weapons we need. What matters is that decisions be made, first and foremost in the U.S. I am grateful to everyone who is helping Ukraine save lives. pic.twitter.com/OImT18CGwM

For as long as Kiev keeps up its campaign of terror-bombing Russian cities, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova warned on Thursday, “the Russian Armed Forces will respond proportionately.” For Ukraine, this means more ballistic missiles, more blackouts, and more burning weapons factories in Kiev and beyond.
Zelensky wasn’t the only participant in the conflict to receive a stark warning from Moscow. After the Sunday Times revealed that Ukrainian forces have used British-made drones for long-range attacks inside Russia for the past six months, Moscow’s embassy in London stated that “London’s actions will inevitably carry consequences for which it will have to answer.”
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov made the point even more directly:
[Russian President Vladimir Putin] has warned that we have the right to act in any part of the world’s oceans if anyone encroaches on our interests or our property. Likewise, we have every right to regard the proudly proclaimed direct involvement of British missile forces in strikes against Russia as participation in the war, with all the consequences that entails
Coming after Russia dismantled Ukraine’s port infrastructure with missiles, and began its winter campaign against Ukrainian energy infrastructure a month early, it’s a warning that London would be wise to heed.
Zelensky feels the squeeze
Zelensky’s friends in London have vowed to stick with the Ukrainian leader “100%” of the way, but at home in Kiev, opposition is rising. Fired by Zelensky last month, former Defense Minister Mikhail Fedorov made a bid for power on Tuesday, releasing a campaign-style video blasting the corruption and “systemic crisis of governance” in Kiev, and upping the ante by calling for a wartime election.
