Yeah, he was not the only one btw, a lot of kids crossed (are still crossing) the borders alone, some of them have no parents or relatives anymore and will end in orphanage here, the luckiest ones will be adopted.

 

Fuck this war of one sick psychopath whom everyone is afraid of him.

01/04/22: In response to the war, Lithuania are the first EU country among Gazprom's supply countries to gain independence from Russian gas supplies, Lithuania no longer orders Russian gas and no longer plans to pay for it. Country been operating without Russian gas import since beginning of the month and completely fulfilling countries' needs via Klaipeda's LNG terminal named INDEPENDENCE, also supplying requirements for Latvia's and Estonia's transition systems. In addition, from 1st of May, Lithuania and Poland will join their gas transmission systems with first pipeline between two countries to connect Baltic states with European grids.

 

tweet from Lithuanian president G. Nauseda:

Looks like Slovakia is the first one to fall under the Putin's ultimatum on gas.

 

One would expect this to be impossible after 1968 etc, but there you go....

All will fall. Orbán just won an election with a landslide and his #1 message was that he will ensure that Hungarians will get their cheap gas from Russia. People are waaaay too selfish to sacrifice their own comfort, decades of failed green politics already made this clear.

No worries, Will not happen. :d  We already payed two days ago in Euro.

 

PM also immediately after that mind eclipse of the minister of Economy, called him and kinda explained him that 1+1 is 2  :lol:. Then announced that Slovakia will never pay in Rubels, if Putin want Rubels he can exchange the Euros in Moscow if he want them so much.

 

And the poor minister himself today already stated in his social media that we will never pay in Rubels.

 

so case closed, too much drama because of one minister acting in TV like freshly arrived from lobotomy :p

Well, I have my hopes for the LNG terminal 30 mins away from my home (not that I am using or would ever use gas at home, but alright). :p

    • you're obsessed! but who cares about a team of mercenaries? the players have to be true "Italians", which means they have to have Italian blood running through their veins, they have to feel the love for the Country, they have to feel their heart bumping when the Anthem is played, they have to really want to play for us there's no need to bring here people not good enough to make their native NT, just pick and train our young girls! waterpolo isn't that complicated, just needs a strong physical preparation and being smart enough to understand the tactical situation and take the correct decisions in the pool   ps and frankly, better find a swimmer capable of winning multiple medals than a winning team in a sport watched just by the players' relatives 😈

    • I don't think rankings are fair in cricket. There's no cricket between India and Italy or Papua New Guinea for the latter team to improve their performance or get better in rankings. It's just top 8 teams that regularly play against each other.   In long term, if more teams being competitive there will be more interesting match ups rather than between same old teams.
    • I understand your disappointment as a neutral Olympics fan  , but the qualification pathway that both ICC & IOC has agreed on is based on pure merit. In fact many other Olympic sports has world ranking system as the primary  means of qualification . This achieves 2 things, it rewards the best nations in that particular sports who have managed to perform at the highest level over a period of time rather than a one off playoff/qualifiers & secondly it ensures you get quality matches among the best teams in the world at the Olympic level. There is a reason world rankings are used as a parameter for qualification in multiple Olympic sports.  I am delighted for  & they qualified on merit albeit via penalty kicks, but how many Canadians (or the global audience)will be interested to watch a World cup opening match at home v  as compared to v . You will get your answer as to why ICC choose world rankings over  a random qualifier. 
    • Some of the highlights from this week    Adejah Hodge with a WL, PB, and NR of 22.10 in the women's 200m at the Spec Towns Invitational    That WL stood for about an hour, before  Cambrea Sturgis went 0.01 better in 22.09 at the Baylor Invitational, for a new PB.     Lachlan Kennedy with a PB of 9.96 in the men's 100m heats at the Australian National Championships   3:29:85 for Cameron Myers in the men's 1500m final as well   9.96 PB for 16 year old  Dillon Mitchell in the boy's 100m (2.8m/s) at the District 23-6A Championships
    • It would be great if  women Italy water polo returned to the top, where volleyball is now. These 2  teams + basketball and football and maybe softball, would be a nice to see for the women's team sports in LA in 2028.   https://www.instagram.com/p/DVs-BAdjPyd/?img_index=2
    • https://www.instagram.com/izachiappini   She's currently playing in Roma, but I see she's 171 cm height... She's a bit short, and that's a big problem for the Italian National Team. I also don't know if there's even any talk of her returning to the Italian National Team? She is 31, which is still an age to return to play in NT. The ITA has changed head coaches, so maybe there's still a chance for a her return? There's no one left from that 2019 team, except for Roberta Bianconi.
    • For me, it's nonsense –in the Italian National Team played with players from Hungary, Brazil, etc., although perhaps not at that particular time. Regarding the 2019-2021 period, it was a generational change after coach Fabio Conti times. The team was in crisis and didn't qualify for the 2021 Olympics. I don't remember what the atmosphere was like back then, but honestly, I don't remember that particular this Brazilian player in our squad. If there was a problem, it was more of a personal one. Many people from that squad are gone, but the crisis in the Italian team continues and is more of a structural one – the players are too weak physically. In my opinion, it would be advisable to naturalize someone strong to change the Italian team's power.
