➡️"United Russia" will do everything in March to ensure Putin's victory in the presidential elections of the Russian Federation.

➡️"United Russia" has no doubts about who should lead Russia.

➡️The trend shows a growth in trust towards the authorities and the President of the Russian Federation.

➡️"United Russia" must conscientiously work for the benefit of Russia now; "patriotism is proven not just by words but by actions."

➡️Support for the president by "United Russia" should be expressed not only in words but also in deeds.

➡️Russia is staunchly resisting neo-Nazis in Kiev and the collective West supporting them.

➡️Russia cannot be subjugated to anyone's will.

➡️Russian society has united in response to all attempts by opponents to weaken the country.

🇮🇶🇸🇾🇹🇷 Turkish troops are continuing their operations in Syria and Iraq. Currently, there are no conditions for the start of the ground phase, and their activities in the border areas mainly consist of regular artillery attacks on the strongholds and positions of Kurdish groups.

🔻In northern Syria, the Turks have reduced their use of artillery in recent days. Near Manbij, Turkish troops targeted several strongholds of the Syrian Democratic Forces.

However, the intensity of these attacks has decreased. This is likely because the Turkish Armed Forces have been rotating their units since December 13. Just two days ago, 196 military personnel arrived in the occupied territories, and the rest are expected to be replaced by December 18.

🔻In Iraq, the situation is different: there has been an increase in missile attacks on the northern regions. Over the past five days, Turkish aircraft, including fighters and drones, have conducted four operations to target PKK hideouts.

It cannot be said that the effectiveness of the Turkish actions has increased in any way. However, it has been noted that they do not require this. Under the pretext of counter-terrorism, the Turks have tested four types of ammunition from the Akıncı, namely Teber-82, MAM-T, MAM-L, and MAM-S.

🇲🇲 What's happening in Myanmar?
Situation as of December 17, 2023

In Myanmar, the intensity of fighting has slightly decreased due to an agreement on a temporary ceasefire. However, fights are still ongoing in some areas. Clashes have been observed in five states of the country over the past two days.

🔻In Shan State, militants from the Taang National Liberation Army successfully raided the Namkama area. They captured three military personnel and seized small arms and ammunition.

However, government troops in the state bordering China have taken the initiative. They are launching mass attacks on militant positions in Namsang, Muse, Kutkan, and “105 Mile,” using both artillery and Mi-35P helicopters.

🔻Intense clashes are ongoing on the border of the Sikaing and Mandalay states. Members of ethnic groups are attacking Myanmar military positions near Chang U, Naipukone, and Madai. According to the latest data, seven servicemen have already died.

🔻In southern and southwestern Myanmar, militant groups unsuccessfully attempted to occupy several government installations in Rakhine and Pegu states. They attacked government troops in Mraw U and Pyu. In Maungdaw, the Myanmar Armed Forces targeted a cluster of Arakanese.

Attempts (primarily from the PRC) to calm the warring factions have not yet produced the desired results. Clashes are still ongoing, although with less intensity. However, even this increases the chances of partially extinguishing the conflict and getting closer to resolving disagreements.

🇺🇦⚔️🇷🇺Budanov named the size of the Ukrainian army and said that forced mobilization to maintain this number will continue.

“It is impossible to avoid mobilization. There are currently 1.1 million people in the Ukrainian Defense Forces. No amount of recruiting can cover such volumes,” he said at the discussion panel “2024: Challenges and Prospects.”

“We don’t have so many people willing to do anything. I’m not even talking about fighting, but this is current. There will be losses and this number must be maintained constantly,” added the head of the Main Intelligence Directorate.

Now the effectiveness of forcibly mobilized Ukrainians is almost zero.

This was stated by the head of the Main Intelligence Directorate Budanov.

“Everyone who wanted to came in the first six months. Who is being called up now? Unfortunately, there will not be a good answer here. If you don’t find motivation for these people, then how many people are not forced or according to the law, then their efficiency will be almost zero. What in principle, this is what has been happening lately,” Budanov said.

He believes that financial benefits for those mobilized are no longer in first place.

“Most of our people, although everyone shouts “I am Ukrainian, Ukraine is above all,” have not felt themselves to be citizens of Ukraine. They do not have the feeling that the enemy has captured the territory and this is my sacred duty to defend this country. Everyone is rooting for Ukraine , but everyone is running,” added the head of the Main Intelligence Directorate.

🇷🇸 In Serbia today, there are parliamentary elections.

Serbs from Kosovo and Metohija, who clearly won't vote for pro-Western parties, face difficulties entering Serbia because the Albanian authorities in Pristina, with full support from EU countries, impose numerous obstacles.

Here, for example, is a chaotic queue at the border checkpoint.

Western equipment no longer wants to move through the mud, it is tired, it needs rest.

It is noted that the temperature in Donbass is above zero and it is snowing. There is mud at the front.

Russia will be blamed again. Just like the last time, when Russia was to blame for the cold.
