What’s Happening?
Chinese President Xi Jinping and Russian President Vladimir Putin held a video call on February 4, 2026, discussing how their two countries can work more closely together on many big issues. They praised their ongoing strategic partnership, calling it a stabilizing force at a time when the world is facing uncertainty and tension.
The leaders talked about expanding economic cooperation, especially in trade, energy, nuclear energy, industry, and even space and technology projects. Putin also accepted invites to visit China later this year, including attending the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit hosted by China.

Big Blow for Australia as Josh Hazlewood Ruled Out of T20 World Cup
Big Blow for Australia as Josh Hazlewood Ruled Out of T20 World Cup
Sports
What’s Happening?
Australia’s cricket team has received a major setback ahead of the 2026 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup: veteran fast bowler Josh Hazlewood has been ruled out of the tournament due to injury. Hazlewood, known for his steady pace and accuracy, has been one of Australia’s most reliable bowlers across formats for years.
His absence comes as Australia prepares for the world’s biggest T20 event with a squad that now needs to fill the gap he leaves behind. The 2026 tournament co-hosted by India and Sri Lanka will be Hazlewood’s first T20 World Cup missed in more than a decade, marking a significant moment in the team’s transition.
Why is it Important?
This matters for several reasons. First, Hazlewood has been part of Australia’s “Big Three Era” of fast bowlers alongside Pat Cummins and Mitchell Starc for about 15 years, helping shape one of the most feared bowling attacks in world cricket.
His absence also signals a shift in Australia’s lineup, as the team looks to groom the next generation of pace bowlers. For fans, it’s a reminder that injuries can reshape even the most experienced teams and open the door for younger players to shine on the world stage.
