20251116             NEW YORK, November 15. /TASS/.
20251116             The United States successfully tested a B61-12 tactical thermonuclear bomb without a warhead in August, according to a statement from the US Department of Energy's Sandia National Laboratories.
20251116             The tests were conducted at a test site in Nevada from August 19 to 21, the statement said.
20251116             During the tests, American fifth-generation F-35 fighter jets delivered and dropped the weapons with inert warheads.
20251116             The tests were conducted in coordination with the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA).
20251116             The National Nuclear Security Agency completed a program to extend the service life of those aerial bombs by 20 years in late 2024, according to the statement.

20251116             Russia remains open for interaction with European countries, despite the freezing of most official mechanisms of dialogue, Federation Council First Deputy Chairman, Secretary of the General Council of the ruling United Russia party Vladimir Yakushev said at the BRICS-Europe symposium in Sirius.
20251116             "Russia still sees large mutually beneficial potential in European countries," the senior senator said, addressing foreign participants in the forum.
20251116             Direct inter-party and inter-parliamentary communication plays an important role even in the conditions of tension, he stressed.
20251116             ‘Today official channels of dialogue between Russia and most European states have been actually frozen.
20251116             This makes even more significant the relevance of alternative formats of inter-parliamentary and inter-party communication," Yakushev said.
20251116             Russia respects rich heritage of cooperation with European states and favors preserving humanitarian, cultural and expert contacts, he said.

20251116             "If Brussels pushes us towards the war, we will exercise our right of veto against its decisions, even if we have to act alone against all the other 26 [EU countries]," the Hungarian top diplomat said at an anti-war rally in Gyor in the country’s northwest.
20251116             "We cannot allow Hungary and the Hungarians to enter the war.
20251116             We must protect Hungary and Hungarian citizens against it," he stressed.

20251116             "Will a table for peace talks [on Ukraine] be set in Turkey in the near future?
20251116             We now believe so.
20251116             I believe it will happen in Turkey.
20251116             It could take place somewhere else, but I am convinced that the time for peace is already here and it will come," the minister said.
20251116             The Foreign Minister believes the conflict in Ukraine is currently at its closest point to ending".
20251116             In my view, this war is now at the point closest to stopping.
20251116             We see that all the conditions for a ceasefire have already matured," he said.
20251116             Fidan stated "holding the necessary negotiations and take a step forward" is needed".

20251116             WASHINGTON, November 16. /TASS/.
20251116             The embassy of Russia in Washington said a "window of opportunity" for normalization of Russian-US ties has opened.
20251116             "In today's multipolar world, where claims for sole leadership have no place, especially against the backdrop of the Trump administration’s rejection of the liberal globalist model of a "rules-based world order",
20251116             a window of opportunity has opened for Russia and the United States as great powers to normalize relations based on principles of equality, respect for national interests, and non-confrontational coexistence.
20251116             It was precisely this approach that enabled the breakthrough back in 1933," the embassy said in a statement on the 92nd anniversary of establishing the diplomatic relations between Russia and the United States.
20251116             According to the embassy, before the diplomatic ties were established on November 16, 1933, the two states were in "an extended period without official ties, when American ruling elites for 16 years refused to deal with the young Soviet state, which they declared a threat to the ‘civilized world’".
20251116             "It took the political wisdom of President Franklin D. Roosevelt and other clear-headed US politicians, who recognized the new geopolitical realities, as well as the interest of business - during the Great Depression of the 1930s - in large-scale projects in the context of accelerated industrialization in the USSR, to make the decision to recognize the Soviet Union," Russian diplomats said.
20251116             "In just one month, the process had progressed from a presidential letter in October 1933 addressing Central Executive Committee Chairman Mikhail Kalinin to the conclusion of negotiations in Washington, DC with the participation of People's Commissar for Foreign Affairs of the USSR Maksim Litvinov and the exchange of relevant notes.
20251116             Prominent Soviet diplomat Alexander Troyanovsky was appointed the first Plenipotentiary Representative of the USSR to the United States, and Special Assistant to the Secretary of State William Bullitt - as the first US Ambassador to Moscow," the statement continues.
20251116             "In the following years, relations between our countries evolved in waves, traversing a comradeship-in-arms in World War II and intense confrontation during the Cold War.
20251116             Alongside such positive moments as joint work on the creation of the UN and on the development of fundamental arms control agreements, as well as the docking in space of the Soviet Soyuz and American Apollo missions in 1975, both superpowers repeatedly came close to dangerous confrontation, particularly during the Cuban Missile Crisis and the South Korean Boeing incident.
20251116             However, they always found resolutions, recognizing their responsibility for the fate of the whole planet," it said.

20251116             MOSCOW, November 16. /TASS/.
20251116             Communications between Russia and the United States continue, including on the issue of the settlement in Ukraine, Kremlin aide Yury Ushakov said.
20251116             "Communications continue," Ushakov said".
20251116             We are proactively talking on the settlement in Ukraine," he added.
20251116             Agreements to be reached on the meeting between the leaders of the two countries will move many political and technical difficulties to the background, the Kremlin aide said.
20251116             "It seems to me if an agreement in principle is reached between Washington and Moscow concerning the meeting between the leaders in a certain place, then many technical and political difficulties will go to the background," Ushakov noted.

20251116             Vladimir Zelensky’s approval rating has plummeted by 40% over the past week, Yaroslav Zheleznyak, a member of Ukraine’s Verkhovna Rada (parliament), said, citing surveys conducted in the wake of a major corruption scandal.
20251116             "The opinion polls that I have seen show that Zelensky’s rating stands below 20%," he said in a video posted on the Strana media outlet’s Telegram channel.
20251116             Mindich case
20251116             On November 10, the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (NABU) and the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office (SAPO), both independent from Zelensky’s office, announced an investigation into a major corruption scheme in the energy sector, dubbed Operation Midas.
20251116             Searches were conducted at the Energoatom energy company and the residences of entrepreneur Timur Mindich and the now suspended Justice Minister German Galushchenko, who served as the country’s energy minister at the time of the events that are being looked into.
20251116             NABU also started to release recordings of conversations from Mindich’s apartment, which revealed discussions of corrupt practices.
20251116             Charges in the case have been brought against Mindich, Igor Mironyuk, a former adviser to the energy minister, Dmitry Basov, Energoatom executive director for safety, businessmen Alexander Zukerman and Igor Fursenko, Lesya Ustimenko and Lyudmila Zorina, as well as former Deputy Prime Minister Alexey Chernyshov, who is also seen as a member of Zelensky’s inner circle.
20251116             Mindich left the country a few hours before searches started.

20251116             The insistent albeit not very well-articulated ambitions of US President Donald Trump to restart nuclear testing have alarmed US public.
20251116             A group of US officials and experts close to Republicans are seeking an audience with the Trump administration in the White House to voice their concerns about the pernicious plan.
20251116             Over the past two weeks, Trump’s rhetoric raised a question mark not only over the sustainability of the decades-old arms control system but also over whether the US establishment can restrain their own leader’s impulses.
20251116             Trump has persisted in his ambitions: "We will do nuclear testing like other countries do," the US leader told reporters on board Air Force One for travel to Florida last weekend".
20251116             We have more nuclear weapons than any other country," he added".
20251116             I’m the one that renovated them and built some, and I hated to do it, but I had no choice, because they [other countries] have it," Trump stressed.
20251116             Late last week, CNN quoted two officials familiar with the matter that US Energy Secretary Chris Wright, National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) leader Brandon M. Williams and officials from the US National Laboratories are planning to tell the White House that they do not think detonating weapons for nuclear warhead testing is tenable.
20251116             The US expert community, from professors with the leading universities to former National Security Council officials, has confirmed that neither Russia nor China has exploded their nuclear warheads for decades as masking a nuclear blast is next to impossible.
20251116             In an interview with Kommersant, Matt Hoh, a former USMS Captain and State Department Officer, noted that Trump’s orders to resume nuclear testing show how poor the US president’s comprehension of the institutional architecture of the US nuclear industry is.
20251116             The expert explained that the Department of Energy (DOE) and its affiliate, the NNSA, not the Pentagon, are responsible for nuclear warheads, design, production, maintenance, subcritical testing and the keeping of testing infrastructure in readiness in the United States.
20251116             While the DOE ensures the storage and technical serviceability of the arsenal and the test site in Nevada, the president and the Department of Defense make decisions on the use of nukes and nuclear carriers.
20251116             Trump’s plans have raised concerns among the US community, with human rights and environmental activists discussing the grim legacy of Nevada where decades of underground nuclear explosions have led to radioactive contamination and a surge in cancer rates.
20251116             Any additional tests will inevitably trigger protests and legal action.
20251116             It would have been extremely interesting to watch all this had it been a Netflix series, but, unfortunately, the stakes are too high as this involves a threat to the planet, Hoh concluded.

20251116             China has launched a pressure campaign against Japan after the latter’s new prime minister, Sanae Takaichi, stated that a potential military conflict around Taiwan may lead to direct interference from Tokyo.
20251116             On November 16, Beijing dispatched its coast guard to the disputable islands of Senkaku (known as the Diaoyu Islands in China).
20251116             On November 12, according to information from Tokyo, a Type 055 destroyer of the Chinese People’s Liberation Army (PLA) passed near the Japanese island of Kyushu, and China will hold a military exercise with live-fire training in the Yellow Sea from November 17 - November 19, the China Coast Guard announced.
20251116             Beijing has increased diplomatic and economic pressure, too.
20251116             On Saturday, the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs called on citizens to avoid trips to Japan after which China’s largest air carriers, including Air China, China Southern Airlines and China Eastern Airlines, announced a free-change and refund policy for flights to Japanese cities.
20251116             Senior Colonel Jiang Bin, a spokesperson for the Chinese Ministry of National Defense, vowed a crushing defeat against the "steel-willed PLA" should Japan "dare to use force" to interfere in the Taiwan question and warned that Tokyo would "pay a heavy price".
20251116             The People’s Daily, the main mouthpiece of China’s Communist Party, argued that Japan has issued an open military threat against China for the first time since 1945.
20251116             Previously, only retired generals but not prime ministers could afford rhetoric similar to that of Takaichi in Japan, Vladimir Nelidov, a researcher with the Center of Japanese, Korean and Mongolian Studies at the Moscow State Institute of International Relations, told Vedomosti.
20251116             Nationalist conservatives in Japan believe that their country should play a larger role in the international arena and support a US-led `rules-based world order’.
20251116             And Washington, too, is quite willing to bring its allies into this, the expert said.
20251116             Takaichi became the first Japanese head of government to make a statement like this as a politician, not as an expert, according to Vasily Kashin, director of the Center for Comprehensive European and International Studies at the Higher School of Economics.
20251116             The military build-up and maneuvers were already an indication that Japan is getting ready for a potential joint operation with the United States in the event of a conflict around Taiwan, he added.
