27.01.2026 ⇢ The Day of the FSB Internet Kill Switch
⌨In the morning, Russian editors focused on Donald Trump’s aggressive external leverage, prioritizing his 'armada' threat against Iran and 25% tariffs on South Korea. This international posturing was quickly balanced by state reports of a localized military breakthrough in Kupyansk-Uzlovoi, which General Gerasimov framed as part of a broader offensive on all fronts.
By early afternoon, the narrative shifted toward internal security as the State Duma approved a bill granting the FSB authority to disconnect internet and telephone communications during drone attacks without compensating users. This move coincided with reports of India and Azerbaijan distancing themselves from Russian trade and energy.
The evening coverage was dominated by Vladimir Putin’s personal participation in the 82nd anniversary of the Siege of Leningrad’s end. Editors used this commemorative backdrop to contrast domestic resilience with the shifting diplomatic landscape, specifically highlighting Trump’s sudden optimism regarding the ongoing Ukraine peace negotiations.
