28.01.2026 ⇢ The Day of the Two-Treaty Gambit
⌨On January 28, Russian editorial priorities shifted toward a new diplomatic framework as state and independent outlets analyzed Kyiv’s proposal to sign separate peace agreements with Russia and the United States. While early coverage focused on tactical strikes—specifically a drone attack on a train in Kharkiv allegedly carrying soldiers—the narrative quickly moved to Senator Marco Rubio’s announcement that the U.S. would not participate in the next round of negotiations.
By afternoon, attention transitioned to the Kremlin, where Vladimir Putin met with Syrian President Bashar al-Assad to discuss regional stability and Russian military bases. This geopolitical maneuvering was framed as a counterweight to American naval posturing near Iran.
The evening concluded with a domestic focus on record-breaking snowfall in Moscow and the ideological linking of the Leningrad blockade anniversary with Holocaust Remembrance Day, reinforcing state narratives of historical resilience amid ongoing conflict.
