In a recent interview with a German publication, former Chancellor Angela Merkel said that the 2014 ceasefire agreement under the Minsk Protocol was meant to give Ukraine time to build up its military. She admitted that Russia could easily have overrun Ukrainian troops in 2015 and doubted if NATO countries could have done as much then as they do. Russia has reacted to Merkel’s interview as a confirmation of Germany’s ‘duplicity’ regarding the war in Ukraine. Moscow said that Merkel, through her statement, has exposed that the West never planned to follow the peace accord.

The International Monetary Fund is looking for constructive and meaningful engagements towards an IMF programme for Ethiopia, Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva said during a visit to Kigali on Thursday.
“We are now looking for constructive and meaningful engagements toward an IMF programme for Ethiopia,” she said, as the east African country seeks an IMF loan after an African Union-backed ceasefire.
Africa’s second most populous country requested a debt restructuring under the Group of 20’s Common Framework process in early 2021, but progress was held up by a two-year civil war in the Tigray region.
The IMF requires debt relief commitments from a country’s bilateral creditors before it agrees to a loan programme.
Ethiopia’s government and the Tigray People’s Liberation Front (TPLF), a guerilla force-turned-political party, agreed on Nov. 2 to stop fighting following talks.

APA-Addis Ababa (Ethiopia) The government of Ethiopia and the World Bank Thursday signed two grant agreements amounting to a total of $745 million.
Finance Minister Ahmed Shide and World Bank’s country director Ousmane Dione signed the two financial agreements following the approval of the grants by the World Bank’s directors in mid-December.
Of the total, the $445 million grant will finance the implementation of a program to strengthen Primary Health Care Services in Ethiopia.
The program aims to improve access to and equitable provision of high-quality primary health care services and to further strengthen the country’s health system.
More than 22 million women and children, including those in conflict-affected areas are expected to benefit from the program.
“It will also restore facilities that were damaged by conflict, enabling millions of Ethiopians to get access once again to the services they direly need,” Ousmane said when the bank approved the fund last month.
The second $300 million Grant will also finance another nationwide program named Flood Management Project (FMP).
The project also is expected to enhance Ethiopia’s institutional capacity for disaster and flood risk management in selected river basins, according to the finance ministry.
Nearly 34 million people living in poor communities in the priority basins of Awash, Omo, and Rift Valley Lakes basins are expected to benefit from the project.

In the accompanying documents, the machinery being exported was generically described as a “parallel lathe” and “hot forming machines.”
But the machines seized at the port of Genoa by the Finance Police and the Customs Agency were actually a “grooving machine” and a “trimming machine” (worth more than €3 million) used to produce cartridge cases for ammunition, as the manuals and instructions for use that accompanied them also made clear.
The machines in question, found inside two containers, were destined for Ethiopia, where there is an ongoing war between the central government and the Tigray Liberation Front (a region seeking independence), in the course of which all sides have been guilty of war crimes.
As a result, in October 2021, a European Parliament resolution called on all European Union member states to halt arms exports to the East African nation.
In the judiciary investigation launched in October following the discovery of the containers in question, coordinated by the Genoa Public Prosecutor’s Office, three people are currently under criminal investigation, accused of exporting armament materials without the required authorization and of criminal misrepresentation by a private individual in a public document.
Meanwhile, the headquarters of the Lecco company that issued the delivery notes for those machines was also searched. In its press release on Monday morning, the Genoa provincial command of the Finance Police did not reveal the name of the company in question, whose managers were entered into the register of suspects.
However, according to Weapon Watch, the observatory on weapons in European and Mediterranean ports, the company is “Forza 3M srl […], a company that does not appear to be registered in the National Register of Enterprises under Law 185/1990, and therefore could not apply for export authorization for armament material.”
On its website, the company openly calls itself a business that sells “solutions for small caliber ammunition” (5.56 mm to 12.7 mm) and shows brochures of its products.
This is what is known about the company: it is “newly established” (March 2021), has a small share capital (€20,000), has a declared headquarters that is only for legal purposes and, in the only financial statements presented so far, it declared a quasi-negligible turnover (about €116,000) with “only one employee.”
This is why, again according to Weapon Watch, Forza 3M srl “would hardly be considered a serious entity in order to be authorized to export military equipment.”
However, the observatory further reveals, the company “is closely linked to another Lecco-based company, Minuterie 3M srl, which belongs to the same corporate owners and has been operating since 1995 in the metal small parts sector. In its 2021 financial statements, the latter declared a turnover of €12.7 million (doubled compared to 2019) and 61 employees working at a plant in the industrial area of Lecco.”
Weapon Watch stresses that “the goods presented for boarding did not qualify as dual use, because they were specifically intended for the manufacture of ammunition, as confirmed by the presence of molds for the 7.62×39 mm caliber, typical of Soviet-made weapons of war and in particular of the AK-47 Kalashnikov, an assault rifle that was also manufactured under license in Ethiopia at the Gafat Armament Engineering Complex plants.”
This is not the first time that such incidents, and the export of weapons to conflict areas more generally (such as Yemen and Syria), have occurred at the port of Genoa.

💭 Two Turkish-owned cargo ships have reportedly come under attack at the port of Kherson, marking the first time in many months that commercial ships have been damaged during the fighting in Ukraine. Turkish TV is airing an undated video showing the bridge and accommodation block of one of the vessels on fire while the second ship was reported to have been hit possibly by shrapnel.
Both of the vessels registered in Vanuatu and operated by Turkish shipping companies have been trapped in Kherson for nearly a year since the fighting began in Ukraine. They are part of as many as a dozen Turkish ships that were not covered by the UN agreement and have remained caught in Ukrainian ports including Kherson and Mykolaiv while the crews were mostly evacuated.
The vessel shown on fire is the Tuzla, a 43-year-old general cargo ship managed by Cayeli Shipping of Istanbul. AIS data shows the vessel departed Turkey on February 18, 2022, and arrived in Kherson on February 23, the day before the invasion of Ukraine. The vessel is 282 feet long and 3,943 dwt.

The Joint Coordination Center (JCC) reported that three ships loaded with wheat and corn left Ukrainian ports on Sunday, including a ship chartered by the UN World Food Program carrying 30,000 tones of wheat as humanitarian aid to Ethiopia. Two other ships were headed to Spain and Turkey with a total of 105,500 tones of grain and other food products. As of 22 January, the total tonnage of grain and other foodstuffs exported from the three Ukrainian ports was 18,330.360 tones and 1,336 voyages were enabled.

My Note: From the 16th century until today, Turkey has the blood of millions of Ethiopian, Armenian, Assyrian and Greek Orthodox Christians on its hands.
Since 2020, Turkey, alongside Iran the UAE and China deliver drones and their operators to the fascist and genocidal Oromo regime of Ethiopia. These combat drones attacked Christians of Northern Ethiopia, Monasteries, Churches, Schools, Hospitals, homes and and civilian facilities — resulting in more than 1 million deaths
Well, now ✞The Ark of The Covenant is Transmitting a signal on a path to the EAST and to the WEST. China, Europe, America, Russia, Ukraine, Turkey, Iran and Arabia, STOP supporting the fascist Oromo regime of evil Abby Ahmed Ali in Ethiopia. This brutal regime has massacred and starved to death over a million Orthodox Christians of Axumite Ethiopia in under two years.
✞ The 129-year-old Assumption Church in Chan Thar in Ye-U township in the northwestern Sagaing region was set ablaze on Jan. 15, along with many villagers’ homes.
Myanmar junta forces have continued their attacks on Christian communities by torching a more than century-old Catholic church in a predominantly Christian village.
The church was completely destroyed in the inferno. However, there were no human casualties as villagers managed to flee before the army arrived.
The place of worship built in 1894 had a ‘priceless’ historical value for Catholics and non-Catholics alike. Before setting fire to it, soldiers desecrated it by drinking and smoking inside. Catholics and Buddhists have lived together in harmony in the area for centuries. In the past year, the village has been attacked four times by militia, without any clashes or provocations.
It is a new wound for the religious minority, after two air force fighter jets carried out a raid in Karen State in recent days, destroying a church and killing five people including a child.
The first Catholic presence in the area, which refers to the diocese of Mandalay, dates back about 500 years and the village of Chan Thar itself arose and developed thanks to the work of descendants of Portuguese Catholics who then inhabited it for centuries.
In the village, the population has always been predominantly Catholic, scattered in 800 houses in close contact and harmony with two neighbouring Buddhist centres. Last year, the military set fire to the houses of Chan Thar on 7 May and a second time a month later, on 7 June 2022, destroying 135 buildings.
The third assault took place on 14 December, just before the start of the Christmas celebrations; the last was a few days ago, on 14 January 2023, when the Tatmadaw (Armed Forces) men razed and burnt almost all the houses.
Local sources, on condition of anonymity, report that the soldiers attacked and set fire to the church “for no apparent reason”, because there was no fighting or confrontation going on in the area, and without any provocation.
The soldiers had been stationed in the area in front of the church since the evening of 14 January, and before leaving the area, they carried out an “atrocity” by setting fire to the building and “completely burning” the church, the parish priest’s house and the centuries-old nunnery, which collapsed after being enveloped in flames.
The Church of Our Lady of the Assumption was a source of pride for Catholics in Upper Myanmar not only because of its centuries-old tradition, the baptism of the first bishop and the birth of three other archbishops and over 30 priests and nuns.
The place of worship was in fact a historical and cultural heritage for the entire country, including Buddhists, and proof of this is the climate of fraternal cooperation that was established between the different communities.
The church, bell tower and other buildings were destroyed on the morning of 15 January. Government soldiers, an eyewitness revealed, also “desecrated” the sacredness of the place by “looting, drinking alcohol and smoking” inside.
In response to the attack, a number of Burmese priests on social networks have been raising appeals to pray for the country and for the Christian community itself. On the other hand, there have been no official statements or declarations from the Archdiocese of Yangon and Card. Charles Bo.
“We are deeply sorrowful as our historic church has been destroyed. It was our last hope,” a Catholic villager, who did not want to be identified due to repercussions by the army, said.
Villagers said a Marian grotto and the adoration chapel were spared. But the parish priest’s house and the nuns’ convent were destroyed.
They said the army arrived in the village in the conflict-torn Sagaing region on the evening of Jan. 14 and set many houses on fire and stayed in the church overnight before setting it ablaze early on Jan. 15, when local Catholics were expected to arrive for worship.
More than 500 houses in the village were also destroyed. in what was the fourth raid on the village in eight months.
“We have no more houses and the church where there was an antique painting of St Mary, which can’t be replaced,” another resident who wished to remain anonymous said.
The junta is targeting the Sagaing region to tackle growing resistance to its rule by people’s defense forces who are suspected to be based there.
Christians make up around 8.2 percent of Myanmar’s 55 million population. The junta has repeatedly raided Chan Thar since May, 2022. Nearly 20 houses were destroyed and two Catholics, including a mentally disturbed person, were killed during a raid on May 7, 2022. More than 100 houses were set ablaze a month later on June 7. In a raid on Dec.14, more than 300 houses were torched.
Thousands have fled the village since last May and taken shelter in churches near Mandalay, Myanmar’s second-largest city, and at relatives’ homes in other parts of the country.
Chaung Yoe, Mon Hla and Chan Thar, which are part of Mandalay archdiocese, are known as Bayingyi villages because their inhabitants claim that they are the descendants of Portuguese adventurers who arrived in the region in the 16th and 17th centuries. These villages have produced many bishops, priests, and nuns for the Church.
✞ São Paulo: The Oldest Orthodox Church in Brazil Was Destroyed by a Fire
💭 The Antiochian Orthodox Church of the Annunciation to the Theotokos, in São Paulo, was destroyed in a fire yesterday and today. It had been founded in 1904 by Syrian and Lebanese immigrants, seven years after the first Divine Liturgy in Brazilian history had been celebrated in a room in the same street. The community had mostly merged with that of the Orthodox Metropolitan Cathedral, but there were still weekly liturgies that kept the memory of the temple alive. Only the altar survived, but some icons could be retrieved from the walls.
The fire started in a nearby store, and it doesn’t seem anyone was hurt.
In 2016, Patriarch Kirill, the leader of the Russian Orthodox Church visited The Antiochian Orthodox Church of the Annunciation to the Theotokos, which was founded in 1904
