RT @NikaMelkozerova: By this "Putin loses power in his backyard Georgia/Ukraine" or "watched his Central Asian Empire drifts away" stories Western media just show us all how the rest of the world should see us. Through Russian lense, as Russian property.

Alain Berset is a name we should all learn and make a synonym for descending to utter absurdity to defend the indefensible.
RT @bctallis: Absolutely ridiculous

Behind this decision lies only cowardice & greed. #Switzerland.

There is no such thing as neutrality.

RT @BohdanaNeborak: Oscar is political because Yulia Navalnaya says she dreams of Russia to be free. Not Russia stop the war in Ukraine and take responsibility. Not deimperialized Russia.

@TheAcademy gave Yulia stage just for that and they knew what they did refusing @ZelenskyyUa to speak.

If you really think so, maybe Europe isn't the place for you. Certainly it has no place for statements such as this. And will do absolutely fine without those who act this way toward Europe.

So why buy them? To use as Christmas tree ornaments?

I really hope this is a misquote. Otherwise it will stand as the dumbest statement of 2023 so far.
RT @nexta_tv: "Swiss weapons should not be used in wars" - Swiss President

The Swiss authorities are still not ready to allow #Germany and #Spain to re-export #Swiss weapons to #Kyiv, the president of the country, Alain Berset, confirmed in an interview with Die Neue Zürcher Zeitung.

Standard Soviet architecture, tbh. Estonia and Latvia are full of these. It doesn't even have to be a church. Any sloping roof from an earlier era would do.

I've yet to meet any uncorrupted person from a country neighboring Russia who thought Russia had an iota of "soft power".

Aside from in Western comparative literature departments, the sole "soft power" Russia has had in the past 30 years has been cash.

Not simple to tell, but important.
RT @twistopherrobin: This fraud story is not a simple one to tell. We start with the Russian/American fraudster and one-time FBI informant, Mikhail Syroejine or Michael Guss: the man who was either the founder or cofounder (via Heritage Equity Fund) of the Russian-controlled Migom Bank.

Helme süldi-kantribänd või 80ndate rokk avangardistlikul TMW-l oleks tõeline hitt.
RT @runnel: - et kontserdikorraldajad ei kutsu Tõnis Mäge ega Mart Helmet nt TMWle esinema, on kohutav tühistamiskultuur, mitte vabadus oma ürituse sisu ja esinejaid ise valida ja kvootide põhjal poliitikuid mitte sisse pressida. /3

Quite the contrast between VDL and Le Visionnaire, Emmanuel Le Magne.

One paints impossible castles in the air, with a different architecture in each new “vision”.

The other gets big and seemingly impossible stuff done.

Read it. Impressive. https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2023/03/10/joint-statement-by-president-biden-and-president-von-der-leyen-2/
