On this report, the focus is on United States President Donald Trump’s renewed interest in acquiring Greenland. The White House recently shared an AI-generated image of a penguin carrying a US flag toward Greenland, leading to widespread trolling as penguins are not native to the Arctic region. During his address at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Trump stated, 'All we are asking for is a piece of ice, cold and poorly located, that can play a vital role in world peace and world protection.' The discussion highlights Trump's persistent 'Arctic dream' and his concerns regarding Russian and Chinese influence in the region. While Trump argues that US sovereignty over Greenland is essential for Western security, Russia and China have denied any interest in the territory. The programme examines the diplomatic tensions with NATO and Denmark as the Trump administration continues to push for the acquisition despite international criticism.

On this Special Report, journalist Pranay Upadhyaya analyzes the escalating military tensions between the United States and Iran. Following reports of a massive U.S. naval armada, including the USS Abraham Lincoln, heading towards the Gulf, senior Iranian officials have issued a stern warning. Pranay Upadhyaya notes that while Iran is not looking for war, the leadership has stated, 'We are ready also for everything' and will respond to any attack with full force. The discussion highlights the domestic anti-regime protests within Iran and the potential for foreign intervention. Upadhyaya further explores the historical context of U.S.-Iran relations since the 1979 Islamic Revolution, the impact of economic sanctions, and the strategic importance of Iran's oil resources. The report also mentions unconfirmed sightings of Chinese military aircraft in Tehran, suggesting a complex regional force accretion as President Donald Trump intensifies pressure on the Iranian regime's 'dark shadow fleet' through targeted oil sanctions.

In a scathing audio message released from exile, ousted Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has launched a fierce attack on the Muhammad Yunus-led interim administration. She described the current state of the nation as a 'wounded, blood-soaked landscape' and a 'valley of death,' alleging that the country is being ravaged by extremist forces and foreign perpetrators. Sheikh Hasina branded Muhammad Yunus a 'murderous fascist' and a 'traitor,' accusing his regime of being illegal and orchestrating a conspiracy to remove her from power on August 5, 2024. The former Prime Minister laid out five key demands, including the removal of the Yunus administration, an end to street violence, and protection for religious minorities. She further claimed that democracy is in exile and law and order have completely collapsed. These remarks come as Bangladesh prepares for elections on February 12, with the Awami League barred from contesting, amid reports of Indian diplomats' families being evacuated due to rising unrest.
