According to the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Oleksandr Syrsky, thanks to Ukraine's powerful strikes on targets in Russia, the ammunition consumption rates in the enemy army have actually been reduced by half.

Points of attention

  • Syrsky confirmed that Ukraine's strategy in the war against the Russian Federation turned out to be truly effective.
  • The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reported what is currently happening at the front.

Syrskyi spoke about another victory for Ukraine

Journalists asked the commander-in-chief to specifically explain how the strikes by the Ukrainian Defense Forces affected the military capabilities of the Russian invaders.

For several months now, the norms of artillery ammunition consumption in the Russian army have been reduced by almost half. If earlier this figure reached 40 thousand per day, now it is much less.

Syrsky drew attention to the fact that Ukraine mainly strikes military facilities, factories or plants on the territory of the Russian Federation.

What is important to understand is that they are the ones who produce ammunition, missile parts or dual-use products, and the enemy's oil refining facilities.

What is known about the situation on the front on January 19?

The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reports that during the current day, 125 combat clashes took place on the front.

The team at investment bank JP Morgan has raised its estimate of the probability of a global recession from 40% to 60% in 2025 amid the announcement of trade tariffs imposed by US leader Donald Trump.

Points of attention

  • The team at JP Morgan has raised the estimate of a global recession probability from 40% to 60% in 2025 due to the trade tariffs imposed by President Donald Trump.
  • JP Morgan's strategists highlight the negative impact of tax hikes, deteriorating business sentiment, and supply chain disruptions on the economy.
  • Barclays and Deutsche Bank teams have also issued warnings about the American economy potentially sliding into recession if Trump's tariffs are not removed.
  • JP Morgan's analytical note emphasizes that disruptive policies of the Trump administration pose the biggest risk to the global outlook, with the White House becoming less business-friendly.
  • The impact of tax increases is expected to be amplified by countermeasures, deteriorating business sentiment in the US, and supply chain disruptions.

What JP Morgan warns about

Representatives of the bank published an analytical note prepared by a team of strategists led by Bruce Kasman.

It says that the disruptive policies of the Donald Trump administration are recognized as the biggest risk to the global outlook throughout the year.

In addition, it is noted that the White House's approach has become less business-friendly than previously predicted.

The impact of this tax increase is likely to be amplified by countermeasures, deteriorating business sentiment in the US, and supply chain disruptions, Bruce Kasman emphasized.

What is important to understand is that identical warnings were also issued by Barclays and Deutsche Bank teams.

According to them, the American economy could quickly slide into recession if Trump's tariffs remain in place.

Recall that official Beijing has been imposing 34 percent tariffs on all imports from the United States since April 10.
