Thank you, @MarkJTrev of @Reuters for speaking with me following yesterday’s events. When a country focuses on repression over protection, safety is at risk. Praying for all victims. reuters.com/world/europe/exi…

In many respects this resembles the last visit of the Admiral Gorshkov to the western Atlantic in Jan 2023, albeit this time getting a lot closer to the United States with the port visit to Havana, plus the presence of Kazan & her 32 additional missiles. xitter.cf/navalhistorian/status/…

Great article by @GuyReuters and @MarkJTrev on the latest twist in Russian nuclear signalling (with Belarus). Should we worry? Yes and no - it's normal to conduct military exercises, but it's a clear attempt at nuclear coercion against the UK and France.

Hard to watch this from inside Putin's press conference. Evan should be in the hall with us. not in this cage. I asked what it would take to bring Evan & Paul Whelan home.
He said: Russia is “in contact w the American side” but any agreement must be “mutually acceptable.”
A Moscow court on Thursday upheld a ruling to hold in detention until Jan. 30 U.S. reporter Evan Gershkovich, arrested in Russia earlier this year on espionage charges.

A new direction of attack
Two years it felt risky to report on Russian oligarchs. Now it seems the aim is to attack Western publishers and media to make them think twice before accepting Russian journalists’ reporting. @irinaborogan and me for Agentura.
