Zimbabwe wants a seat at the United Nations Security Council for 2027-2028. The country already has support from southern African nations, the African Union, Russia, India, and China. President Mnangagwa plans to launch the bid this year in the capital city and later at the UN meeting in New York. This seat would mark Zimbabwe's return to global politics after years of isolation. It would let the nation speak up for African interests.
The Security Council has five permanent members with veto power and ten rotating members elected for two-year terms. Regional groups share these ten seats, with Africa and Asia getting five spots together. Zimbabwe last served on the council during 1991-1992 and 1983-1984. Information Minister Muswere...

Industry watchers note Samsung will likely produce around 1,000...

Yeston gave a sneak peek of GeForce RTX 50-series Sakura Atlantis and Game Ace card designs back in January. But it took a minute for this Chinese brand to get actual finished cards you can buy onto shelves. A bit of a bummer backup plan came out with their Deluxe series earlier this month. Those weirdly boring black cards are pretty much just Gainward Phoenix ones with different labels slapped on.
Yeston's brighter, fully in-house designs have scored a bunch of hype the past few months, though. That was mostly for their custom AMD card lineup. Yeston blasted on social media that their GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Sakura Atlantis OC is ready to roll online. You can search for it and grab it in their main stores on the big sites.
