17.01.2026 ⇢ The Greenland Tariff Ultimatum Day
⌨On January 17, Russian editorial priority shifted from the tactical progress of the front lines to a major fracture in the Atlantic alliance. Early morning reports focused on the systemic collapse of Ukraine’s energy grid, with editors highlighting Mayor Klitschko’s calls for the evacuation of Kyiv amid sub-zero temperatures. However, by midday, a rare diplomatic development surfaced as state media amplified the IAEA-brokered ceasefire around the Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant.
The afternoon was dominated by President Trump’s escalating pressure on European allies. Russian outlets closely tracked the imposition of 10% tariffs on eight NATO nations for their refusal to support the U.S. annexation of Greenland. By evening, editors emphasized the European Union’s promise of a unified retaliation, framing the day as a decisive break in Western unity. Domestically, media attention balanced reports of FSB counter-terrorism operations in the Caucasus with official denials regarding the health of Adam Kadyrov following rumors of a motorcade accident.
