Ukraine aims to kill 50,000 Russians per month & Trump row over Greenland derails postwar deal

Day 1,427.


Today, as Donald Trump heads to Davos with what he calls “good
news” about Greenland, we examine prime minister of Canada Mark
Carney’s extraordinary speech at Davos where he warned that we
cannot “live within the lie of mutual benefit through integration
when integration becomes the source of your subordination”. We
also report on Moscow’s representative to the IAEA dismissing
global concern over Russia’s strikes on Ukraine’s nuclear power
plants as overblown. And later, we speak to our Kremlin watcher
about what may come from Steve Witkoff’s meeting tomorrow in
Moscow with Vladimir Putin.
