            <news:title>Israeli FM: The Syrian regime's forces' attacks on the Kurdish minority in the city of Aleppo are grave and dangerous. The international community in general, and the West in particular, has a debt of honour to the Kurds who fought fiercely and successfully against Daesh. The systematic and murderous suppression of the various minorities in Syria contradicts the promises of a "new Syria". </news:title>

            <news:title>Trump: Numbers released today show that the United States of America has the lowest Trade Deficit since 2009, and going even lower. In addition, our Nation’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is predicted to come in at over 5%, and that is after losing at least 1.5% to the Democrat “Shutdown.” These incredible numbers, and the unprecedented SUCCESS of our Country, are a direct result of TARIFFS, which have rescued our Economy and National Security.</news:title>

            <news:title>Zelenskyy: Good meeting with President Trump, productive and meaningful. We discussed the work of teams, and in fact every day — meetings or communication. The documents are even more prepared. Today we also talked about air defense for Ukraine - a previous meeting with President Trump helped protect the skies. And I hope that we will strengthen this time too. I thanked for the previous package of missiles for air defense, asked for an additional one. </news:title>

            <news:title>Zelenskyy: During the conversation with Austrian Federal Chancellor Christian Stöcker, we discussed the energy situation in Ukraine. Russia is constantly targeting our energy sector in an attempt to leave Ukrainians without light and heat, and it's very important that our partners respond to this. Therefore, we greatly appreciate Austria's decision to allocate funds to support our energy sector last week. Thank you! We also discussed other ways to support our energy system.</news:title>

            <news:title>Zelenskyy: "Everywhere, where the security situation permits, rescue and repair work is ongoing at the sites of Russian strikes. More than 400 drones and about 40 missiles of various types were used in this attack. The main target was the power grid, generation and distribution substations. There are damages in the Volyn, Ivano-Frankivsk, Lviv, and Rivne regions. In Rivne, a multi-story building was damaged."</news:title>

            <news:title>Zelenskyy: "Every day, Russia could choose real diplomacy, but it chooses new strikes. It's important that everyone who supports the trilateral negotiations respond to this. Moscow must be deprived of the opportunity to pressure Ukraine with cold weather. For this, we need missiles for the "Patriot", NASAMS, and other systems. Each batch helps us get through this winter. Thank you to all partners who understand this and truly help."</news:title>

These are separate necessary programs, subsidies to ensure there are productions there. I'm not sure that the best option is state-owned enterprises in all villages. Because state-owned enterprises need to be managed by someone, and the state as a manager is not the best. The state should provide better conditions for the private sector.</news:title>

            <news:title>Zelenskyy: Repair crews and rescuers have been working on the sites of Russian strikes since last night. In total, there were 219 attack drones during the night, a significant portion of which were "Shaheds", as well as 25 missiles, of which 24 were ballistic. Most of them were successfully neutralized, but unfortunately, not all of them were. As of now, it is known that two people died from this attack. My condolences to their families and loved ones. More than ten people were injured.</news:title>

There are also damages in Kharkiv, Donetsk, Kyiv, and Kherson regions. In Kramatorsk, a drone hit a State Emergency Service building. The situation in the capital is complex: many buildings remain without heat.</news:title>

            <news:title>Tedros: Since the conflict began in Amhara region of Ethiopia, there are disturbing reports of health workers being targeted - detained, beaten, and killed. On Feb 4, Dr. Tsegahun Sime was reportedly taken by security forces in Bahir Dar and later found dead. Hospitals have been damaged in the fighting, and aid workers have lost their lives. With internet blackouts limiting information, these incidents need urgent independent investigation. Health facilities and health workers are not a target.</news:title>

            <news:title>IDF: The Chief of Staff, Maj. Gen. Eyal Zamir, views with severity and strongly condemns the attack on IDF soldiers who were carrying out a military mission earlier today in Bnei Brak. Any harm to IDF soldiers committed by Israeli civilians is a serious crossing of a red line and the attackers must be dealt with harshly. The Chief of Staff expects that the attackers will be brought to justice.</news:title>

            <news:title>Zelenskyy: This is a big mistake to allow the aggressor to take something. It was a big mistake at the very beginning, starting with 2014. And even before that, during the attack and occupation of parts of Georgia. And even before that, when Chechnya was occupied, with total destruction and one million casualties – both killed and wounded.Many mistakes were made. That's why now I don't want to be the President who will repeat the mistakes made by my predecessors or other people.</news:title>

            <news:title>Zelenskyy:Today, Ukraine has applied a package of sanctions against Alexander Lukashenko, and we are significantly intensifying our opposition to all forms of his involvement in the murders of Ukrainians. We will work with our partners to ensure this has a global impact.In the second half of 2025, the Russians deployed a system of relay stations in Belarus to control attack drones, which increased the Russian army's ability to launch strikes on our northern regions - from Kyiv region to Volyn. </news:title>

            <news:title>Zelenskyy: Some of the attacks, particularly on energy facilities and railways in our regions, the Russians would not have been able to carry out without such assistance from Belarus. More than 3,000 Belarusian enterprises have been put at the service of the Russian war and are supplying equipment and components that are classified as critically important. These include components for the production of missiles that are terrorizing our cities and villages. </news:title>

            <news:title>Zelenskyy: The construction of infrastructure for the deployment of medium-range missiles - the 'Orekhnik' - in Belarus is ongoing, which is an obvious threat not only to Ukrainians, but to all Europeans. Alexander Lukashenko has not only provided Belarus' territory for the 'Orekhnik'. Last year, the country's enterprises supplied Russia with critical components and a mechanical base for this weapon. This continues in 2026.</news:title>

            <news:title>Zelenskyy: Alexander Lukashenko has long been trading Belarus' sovereignty for the continuation of his personal power, helping the Russians evade global sanctions for this aggression, actively justifying the Russian war, and now even increasing his own involvement in escalating and prolonging the war. There will be particular consequences for this.</news:title>

            <news:title>Zelenskyy: Yesterday, there were various formats of meetings: both bilateral - between Ukraine and America, and multilateral. In particular, there were negotiations between Ukrainian, American and Russian representatives in two directions, namely on military and military-political issues. Also, the Ukrainian delegation, together with the American team, met with European representatives - Britain, France, Germany, Italy and Switzerland. </news:title>

            <news:title>Zelenskyy: We consider Europe's participation in the process to be critically necessary for the further successful implementation of possible agreements: Ukraine has no doubt that partners have the ability to ensure the constructiveness of the negotiation process, and therefore, a decent result. Yesterday, there were indeed difficult meetings, and we can state that Russia is trying to drag out the negotiations, which could have already reached the final stage.</news:title>

We are closer to completing the negotiations on the military track than on the political track. </news:title>

At least I didn’t appoint Roberts, who led the effort to allow Foreign Countries that have been ripping us off for years to continue to do so — But we won’t let it happen. The new TARIFFS, totally tested and accepted as Law, are on their way! </news:title>

And therefore we are now at a moment when, in my opinion, Belarusians must understand all the risks.</news:title>

            <news:title>Zelenskyy: Today is exactly four years since Putin took Kyiv in three days. And this says a lot about our resistance, about how Ukraine has been fighting all this time.

Remembering the beginning of the invasion and looking at today, we have every right to say: we defended our independence, we did not lose our statehood</news:title>

            <news:title>Volodymyr Zelenskyy: Belgium's decisive decision to seize a tanker from Russia's shadow fleet last night. This particular vessel has long been under US, EU, and UK sanctions, but nonetheless continued to illegally transport Russian oil using a false flag and forged documents. </news:title>

            <news:title>Zelenskyy: We welcome this strong action against Moscow’s floating purse and thank France for supporting the operation. It is also important to modernize European legislation so that tankers carrying Russian oil are not just stopped but seized, with their oil repurposed for Europe's security. We must be resolute. Russia operates like a mafia organization, and the response must match that reality. If they reject the rules for the sake of war, the rules must foresee a clear and firm answer.</news:title>

            <news:title>Cuban FM: Our deepest condolences to the Iranian people and government on the assassination of the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution of Iran , Grand Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei. The criminal US doctrine of "peace through strength," supported by Israel, continues to add to the death toll, destruction, insecurity, and international instability, while flagrantly violating international law and the purposes and principles of the UN Charter.</news:title>

            <news:title>Former Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's press secretary has dismissed claims that he was killed in Israeli and U.S. air raids over the weekend, saying the former president is safe and in good health, Russia's Sputnik News reported on Monday. Ahmadinejad, who served as Iranian president from 2005 to 2013, was earlier reported killed in the recent attacks. There has been no official clarification from Ahmadinejad himself.</news:title>

            <news:title>Ali Larijani: Trump has plunged the region into chaos with his "false hopes" and is now worried about further casualties of American troops. With his delusional actions, he has transformed his self-made slogan of "America First" into "Israel First" and sacrificed American soldiers for Israel's quest for power and with new lies, he once again imposes the cost of his cult of personality on American soldiers and families. The Iranian armed forces did not initiate the invasion.</news:title>

            <news:title>Volodymyr Zelenskyy: I spoke with Oleksandr Kubrakov ahead of the NSDC meeting on the main outcomes of this winter season and preparations for the next one. The key is to fully take into account the real experience of communities this winter when planning protection measures for the next. Ukraine must be ready for any developments, and it is crucial that cities and communities that approached this past winter ineffectively, including Kyiv, are able to prepare better for the next season. </news:title>

            <news:title>Zelenskyy: I am grateful to the Prime Minister of the Netherlands for such a symbolic visit - almost immediately to Ukraine after starting his work at the head of the new government. I informed the Prime Minister about the situation on the battlefield, about the Russian attacks, which do not stop for a single day. We need stable, consistent support every day while the war continues. The Netherlands are demonstrating just such an example of support, which works most effectively. </news:title>

            <news:title>Zelenskyy: This is a projected annual volume of 3 billion euros each year. The Netherlands are also investing in the PURL program, which is critical for us and allows us to purchase missiles for air defense. It's important that we are producing weapons together with the Netherlands and we will definitely continue and increase our joint work. In particular, this is envisaged in the joint statement that we adopted today. </news:title>

            <news:title>Iranian FM Spokesperson: This is as absurd as it is immoral and utterly unlawful: you seek to punish Iran for exercising its inherent right to self-defense under Article 51 of the UN Charter and for resisting the brutal and unlawful aggression of the United States and the Israeli regime, while you continue to arm, shield, and enable those very genocidal aggressors.Such a stance amounts to nothing less than active complicity in international lawlessness and heinous atrocity crimes.</news:title>

            <news:title>Zelenskyy: Over the past week, Russia launched nearly 1,550 strike drones and more than 1,260 guided aerial bombs at Ukraine, along with two missiles. During the same week, due to the easing of sanctions, Russia increased its sales of crude oil to finance its war.These profits give Russia a sense of impunity and the ability to continue the war. Therefore, the pressure must continue, and the sanctions must work. Russia's shadow fleet should not feel safe in European waters or anywhere else.</news:title>

            <news:title>Zelenskyy: We discussed in detail the outcomes of the meetings in America. It's telling that during our negotiators' report, Russia launched a new wave of "martyrs" against Ukraine. The team reported on what was really said in Florida: accents, opportunities, and difficulties. The most important thing is to work out security guarantees in such a way that they would allow us to move closer to ending the war. Security is the key to peace. </news:title>
