Kremlin launches digital rouble to control Russians – Ukraine's Defence Intelligence
Defence Intelligence of Ukraine has reported on "another step by the criminal regime in Moscow aimed at strengthening total control over its own population" — the introduction of a digital rouble. Source: Defence Intelligence of Ukraine (DIU); Latvia-based Russian media outlet Meduza Details: Intelligence reports show that starting in early 2026, Russian state employees will begin to receive their salaries in "digital roubles". DIU expects that Russia will completely control the circulation of the virtual rouble: it will track every transaction, and the spending of digital roubles will be limited by the citizen's place of residence or the type of goods. Moreover, intelligence analysis shows that the Kremlin regime will be able to block citizens' accounts without a court decision and automatically deduct taxes and fines from them. The Russian media outlet Meduza writes that the digital rouble is a new form of Russian currency on par with cash and non-cash roubles. Each digital rouble in the Russian Federation will be assigned a unique code (similar to the series and number on banknotes). Electronic money will be stored in electronic wallets opened on a specially designed platform of the Central Bank. Russians say that the digital rouble has many advantages. In particular, if a bank goes bankrupt, people will not lose their money. Also, the digital rouble will allegedly significantly reduce the cost of money transfers, lower commissions for businesses, etc. Support Ukrainska Pravda on Patreon!

Trump calls out Putin, accuses China of not honoring trade deal terms during 19th week in office
President Donald Trump put Russian President Vladimir Putin on notice, and issued some harsh words to China and their ongoing trade negotiations during his 19th week in office. "What Vladimir Putin doesn't realize is that if it weren't for me, lots of really bad things would have already happened to Russia, and I mean REALLY BAD. He's playing with fire!" Trump wrote in a Truth Social post Tuesday morning. Dmitry Medvedev, the deputy chairman of the Security Council of Russia and former Russian president, responded in kind and issued his own words of caution to the U.S. "Regarding Trump's words about Putin 'playing with fire' and 'really bad things' happening to Russia. I only know of one REALLY BAD thing — WWIII. I hope Trump understands this!" Medvedev wrote. Trump's remarks come as Russia has ramped up its attacks against Ukraine in recent weeks, and as the U.S. has sought to distance itself from the conflict between the two countries. Meanwhile, Trump said Wednesday that time is limited for Putin to get serious about coming to the negotiating table and engage in peace talks. Otherwise, the U.S. might adopt a different approach, he said. "We're going to find out whether or not he's tapping us along or not, and if he is, we'll respond a little bit differently, but it will take about a week and a half to two weeks," Trump told reporters in the Oval Office Wednesday. Here's what also happened this week: Trump accused China of violating an initial trade agreement that Washington and Beijing were hashing out in May. Following those negotiations, both countries agreed that the U.S. would cut down its tariffs against Chinese imports from 145% to 30%, and China would reduce its tariffs against U.S. imports from 125% to 10%. But Trump said that China hasn't followed the terms of the agreement, without disclosing specifics. "The bad news is that China, perhaps not surprisingly to some, HAS TOTALLY VIOLATED ITS AGREEMENT WITH US," Trump said in a social media post Friday. "So much for being Mr. NICE GUY!" U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said after Trump's post in an interview with CNBC that China had failed to remove its non-tariff barriers, as outlined in the deal. "The United States did exactly what it was supposed to do and the Chinese are slow-rolling their compliance which is completely unacceptable and has to be addressed," Greer said Friday. Meanwhile, China pressed the U.S. to reverse course and urged the U.S. to address its own mistakes. "China once again urges the US to immediately correct its erroneous actions, cease discriminatory restrictions against China and jointly uphold the consensus reached at the high-level talks in Geneva," Chinese embassy spokesperson Liu Pengyu said in a Friday statement. Canada also could receive protection from Trump's so-called Golden Dome — if it becomes part of the U.S. Trump has long pushed for Canada to become the 51st state, along with expressing interest in acquiring Greenland and the Panama Canal. "I told Canada, which very much wants to be part of our fabulous Golden Dome System, that it will cost $61 Billion Dollars if they remain a separate, but unequal, Nation, but will cost ZERO DOLLARS if they become our cherished 51st State," Trump said in a Tuesday social media post. Trump has long touted setting up a Golden Dome, a defense shield initiative for the U.S. akin to the one Israel has protecting itself.
