09.02.2025 ⇢ The Day Kremlin Chose Silence
⌨Trump's claim of a phone conversation with Putin dominated morning coverage, with the Kremlin maintaining strategic ambiguity through Peskov's "neither confirm nor deny" stance. This diplomatic dance occurred against reports of military advances, including claims of Orekhovo-Vasilevka capture in DPR.
Two maritime incidents commanded afternoon attention: a cargo vessel's grounding on Sakhalin and three explosions aboard the "Koala" tanker in Ust-Luga port, carrying 130,000 tons of fuel oil. The Baltic states' completion of power grid transition from BRELL to European networks prompted sharp responses from Russian officials.
Evening brought news of Soviet actor Oleg Strizhenov's death, while military reporting focused on claimed advances in Chasovoy Yar. Zelensky's conditional openness to negotiations with Putin emerged late, with Russian media emphasizing perceived Western preconditions.
