Arctic power shift. The United States, Greenland, and Denmark have signed an agreement on control over the island's security. How will the balance of power in the Arctic change? Military presence on the island is now reserved for NATO countries and their partners. ‘no US adversary will ever be permitted to establish a military ​presence in Greenland ​any more, or ⁠make sensitive investments there without our express written approval,’ Donald Trump said. America will get the right to expand the Pituffik Space Base and build two new major facilities. US aircraft and ships will be able to move more freely over Greenland's territory and in its waters. Even if Greenland ever becomes independent, it will still have to remain in NATO and accept existing defense agreements. Why did the struggle for the island even begin? The film ‘Greenland: Trump's Treasure Island’ explains. FOLLOW 🥰 News&Docfilms Channel

📝Science for Export📝 Russian Geology Expands Its Reach Lately, every other person talks about the spread of Russian soft power in the world, but truly effective initiatives in this sphere are relatively few. However, there is potential to change this situation, since the key is to focus on areas where Russia has competitive advantages over other countries. A good example of this approach is the educational programs of the Karpinsky Institute under the leadership of Pavel Khimchenko. Their global goal is to export the Russian geological school abroad, for which "Karpinsky classes" are opening around the world — recently, one of them started operating in Mongolia. In other words, the Institute’s management promotes the creation of scientific centers in friendly countries, based on which tasks related to geology and mineral resource management can be addressed. Such platforms are also needed to train local personnel, of course according to Russian standards. 📌Attracting foreigners to the "Karpinsky classes" also helps create fertile ground for cooperation in countries where it is necessary to promote Russian interests. In this sense, work in neighboring Mongolia is especially relevant, given the activity of Western NGOs there. 🔻What else is the Karpinsky Institute doing? ▪️In three years, the activities of Russian geologists have expanded to more than a dozen countries. "Karpinsky classes" have been opened in Tanzania, Ethiopia, Ghana, Mozambique, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Belarus, and Cuba. In all of these locations, work is underway to train qualified specialists. ▪️Another initiative by Khimchenko is "Sambo in Granite," under which international sambo centers are being opened in various countries. Currently, three centers operate in Cuba, Tanzania, and Ethiopia. These centers provide an opportunity to foster interest in Russia and its people through sports training. ▪️One of the recent achievements of the Karpinsky Institute is the signing of a contract with representatives of Saudi Arabia to study the Arabian Shield, where Russian geologists serve as indispensable experts. ▪️On the other side of the world, in Vietnam, Institute staff together with local specialists have compiled the country's first mineral resources map. This is in addition to the regular organization of international conferences with foreign experts. ❗️Overall, judging by the track record, the Institute is clearly not going to stop at Mongolia, so the milestone tenth "Karpinsky class" won’t be the last. And that is encouraging, because with each new educational program, Russian scientific expertise is being exported, which is currently one of the few effective tools of soft power abroad. #softpower #Russia @rybar

Every day, reconnaissance units of the Russian Defence Ministry's Africa Corps scour Mali's deserts for militants. There is no front line. The enemy attacks from cover, so the entire territory of the country is one continuous frontline. One such mission was captured in Alexander Kharchenko and Mikhail Burov’s film ‘Frontline Mali.’ The film is featured in the collection of the ‘RT.Doc: Time of Our Heroes’ festival. Applications are now open for the festival's fifth-anniversary edition, for both the main and international programs. Your film could become part of a major documentary collection of our time!

💚International Day of Peace. The very peace that many children in Donbass know only from hearsay. For over 10 years, they have lived under the howl of sirens, flinched at shelling, and hidden in basements. They do not remember silence. They do not remember what it is like to fall asleep without fear. Our video is about those who need care, love, and protection more than anyone. It includes footage from the documentaries ‘Children of Donbass’ by Tatiana Borsh, ‘Donbass: Restoring Childhood’, and ‘Road of Life.’ The films were shown at the ‘RT.Doc: Time of Our Heroes’ festival. Your films can also join the collection of the International Documentary Film Festival ‘RT.Doc: Time of Our Heroes.’ We have opened submissions for the festival's fifth anniversary. Works can be submitted to the main and international programs. FOLLOW 🥰 News&Docfilms Channel

📹Children of Donbass Booby-trapped toys, land mines. As they retreated, the Ukrainian troops planted explosives to kill as many children as possible. ‘The victims suffered injuries to their wrists, face and neck the most often,’ says Alexandr Torba, a distinguished doctor of the LPR. In the more tragic cases, parents were forced to bury their babies in the yards because they were prevented from reaching the cemetery due to the shelling. The children of Donbass did not have a normal childhood. They can tell which shell is flying by listening to the sound, and know where the bomb shelters are and what it means to go to school under shelling. Watch our film ’Children of Donbass’, which shows evidence of Ukraine’s war crimes and genocide of Donbass residents. FOLLOW 🥰 News&Docfilms Channel

⚡️Operation of an assault group. Russian troops of the 61st Guards Naval Infantry Brigade of the Center group of forces destroyed a Ukrainian Armed Forces dugout on the Dobropolye direction. They worked as a pair: one soldier pinned down the enemy with heavy fire, while the second moved in close and threw a grenade. But inside there were tunnels and foxholes. The deputy battalion commander, who personally directed the battle, ordered the entire facility destroyed. The dugout was hit with an anti-tank high-explosive mine.
