⚠️🇻🇪🇷🇺 Statement of the Russian Ministry of Transport on the seizure of the tanker "Mariner" in the Atlantic:

"On December 24, 2025, the vessel "Mariner" received a temporary permit to sail under the state flag of the Russian Federation, issued in accordance with Russian legislation and international law.

Today, around 15 o'clock Moscow time, in the open sea outside the territorial waters of any state, US naval forces boarded the vessel and communication with it was lost.

In accordance with the norms of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea of 1982, in high seas, a regime of freedom of navigation applies and no state has the right to use force against vessels duly registered in the jurisdictions of other states."

Whale Hunting: Venezuela Allegedly Has a Bitcoin Reserve of 600,000

This investigative outlet (CriptoNoticias) reports that the Venezuelan government has accumulated $60 billion in BTC and USDT since 2018.

🤷🏻‍♂️To put you in perspective how big this could be, the ambitious project of Tocoma Dam Chávez promised to be completed in 2012 (before sanctions) had budget of $9,32 Billion, which "no one knows" what happened because they never started and the budget was approved.

So with the Bitcoin reserve, we could have 5 new dams to end the energy shortage we have since I was a kid.

⚡️🇺🇸🇻🇪 US Secretary of State Marco Rubio outlined a three-phase plan for Venezuela: stabilization, recovery, and transition.

He stated the US would seize and sell 30-50 million barrels of sanctioned Venezuelan oil at market rates, controlling the revenue to benefit the Venezuelan people.

Rubio confirmed President Trump's long-standing interest in acquiring Greenland, noting historical precedent. He said he would meet with Danish officials next week.

Rubio added that interim Venezuelan authorities are now asking for seized oil to be included in deals, recognizing cooperation with the U.S. is their only path to revenue.
