Musk forced to hand Starlink network over to military, Russian defense official says
According to advisor to the Russian defense minister Andrey Ilnitsky, the system provides the Ukrainian military with sufficiently high-quality communications
MOSCOW, US billionaire and celebrity entrepreneur Elon Musk has been forced to hand over his Starlink satellite communications network to the military and, at the same time, continue financing it, Andrey Ilnitsky, an advisor to the Russian defense minister, said on Tuesday.
"Elon Musk, who owns the Starlink system and repeatedly stated that ‘he never will and doesn’t want to [turn it into a military communications channel],’ was nevertheless forced to hand it over to the military and keep financing it as well," Ilnitsky said in an interview with International Affairs magazine, commenting on Russia’s special military operation in Ukraine. "The system provides them [the Ukrainian military] with sufficiently high-quality communications."
In June 2023, Bloomberg news agency reported that Musk-owned SpaceX had inked a contract with the Pentagon to provide satellite communications services to Ukraine with the use of Starlink terminals. The amount of the deal and the number of terminals to be sent to Ukraine were not disclosed at that time.

West aware Zelensky ‘getting out of control’ – Lavrov
Pushing Kiev to hold a presidential election is intended to keep the ‘unhinged’ leader in check, the Russian foreign minister says
West aware Zelensky ‘getting out of control’ – Lavrov
Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky is becoming increasingly unhinged as he clings to power, and his Western backers are looking for ways to keep him in check, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov claimed on Thursday. Calls for Ukraine to hold a presidential election this year are part of that effort, he believes.
A number of Western politicians have suggested that Ukraine should hold general elections that are due in 2024. Normal democratic procedures in the country were suspended under martial law, but the country could amend its laws to allow the election to go ahead.
Zelensky has been sending mixed signals on the matter, alternately saying that he is willing to run for another term under certain circumstances and claiming that the Ukrainian people would not want an election while the country is fighting

Dozens of countries want to join BRICS – Lavrov
The Russian foreign minister has stated that the high level of interest in the group suggests it has a great future ahead
Nearly 30 countries have expressed a desire to become part of the BRICS group, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said at a press conference in Moscow on Thursday.
Discussing the results of Russian diplomacy in 2023, Lavrov argued that one of the most significant steps toward strengthening the global position of BRICS was the decision to expand the group of emerging economies.
BRICS officially announced the addition of new member countries at its 2023 summit in August, marking its first expansion since South Africa joined in 2010. As well as the founding members of Brazil, Russia, India, and China, the association also now includes Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, and the United Arab Emirates.
A range of other states have expressed their desire to become BRICS members, including Venezuela, Thailand, Senegal, Cuba, Kazakhstan, Belarus, Bahrain, and Pakistan – all of which have formally submitted applications to join.
Other countries such as Syria, Türkiye, Nicaragua, Indonesia, and Zimbabwe have also expressed interest in joining the group but have yet to file official accession applications.

Lavrov: Russia will achieve the goals of the special military operation
"Those who delay negotiations should understand that the longer they procrastinate, the harder it will be to reach an agreement," emphasized Sergey Lavrov.
"Those who have not studied history, and there are many of them in the West, and do not know geography, can fantasize about the defeat of Russia," the Russian Foreign Minister stressed.
⭕️ Regarding the agreement between Ukraine and the United Kingdom on security, Russia does not see anything legally binding, the Russian minister said.
⭕️ The West, by encouraging Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to organize elections, wants to bring him back on the track of its own interests, the minister emphasized.
⭕️ The topic of elections in Ukraine doesn't concern Russia too much, Lavrov stated, noting that Zelensky is increasingly "falling into the hands" of Western sponsors.
⭕️The West is looking for ways to make Kiev more "malleable";
⭕️The Ukrainian-UK security agreement has become a "half-finished product" amid the realisation of the risks of Kiev's NATO accession;
⭕️Russia is not against other countries' agreements with Ukraine, but this does not change Moscow's objectives; the goals of the military operation will be achieved;
⭕️Russia will persistently and consistently achieve the goals of the military operation;
⭕️Russia is philosophical about the West's signals on the settlement around Ukraine, Moscow does not refuse to negotiate;
⭕️Russian FM Lavrov said that the option of Russia being somehow "defeated" in Ukraine is impossible;
⭕️The US and its allies have trampled all norms of international law, nobody authorised them to bomb Yemen;
⭕️Lavrov calls US excuses for attacks on Yemen pathetic

The No. 1 killer of Russians is cluster munitions. They have essentially shut down any ability for the Russians to advance, as they are especially lethal to exposed troops and armor in the open, and they have dramatically increased combat losses to Russian troops, say two defense experts.
