Ha, he is 30 years late. That guy has said worse things in the past. He's been the mayor of one the poorest towns in Bs As since forever and let's say he is not the brightest man on office. At least for the right stuff

Ukraine ambassador to Hungary threated the Hungarians. Hungarians find strategic peace only in their graves. Hungary will be the next. The cheap gas is more important to Hungary than the lives of the humans.

She said it from the safety of Hungary....

 

On the other side Hungary has good and cooperative relation with the governor of Zakarpattia. Hungary send fuel, food, baby care and hygienic products to Zakarpttia and the Ukranians guard our evacuation expeditions in Zakarpattia as much as they could. 

 

And while they threated the minorities right for years:

The hero of Friday night was undoubtedly this 11-year-old Ukrainian boy from Zaporozhie who arrived alone to the Slovak-Ukrainian border.

 

He carried only one plastic bag, a passport, and a number-contact written on his hand so that the police could connect with his family.

 

 

"The boy was immediately taken in by volunteers, who took him to the warmth and took care of him. They brought him food and drink, which they also packed for his next trip, "said the Slovak police. With his determination and a smile on his face, he won the hearts of all the people who rushed to his aid.

Basketball player Brittney Griner reportedly detained in Russia; WNBA, representatives working 'to get her home'

 

 

WNBA player Brittney Griner is being detained in Russia after customs officials said they found hashish oil in her luggage at an airport near Moscow in February, according to a report in the New York Times on Saturday.

 

The Russian Federal Customs Service on Saturday alleged it searched luggage believed to belong to Griner and found vape cartridges that contained oil derived from cannabis -- a crime that carries a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison. While Griner was not mentioned by name, the customs service identified the detained person as a player for the U.S. women's team but did not specify the date of her detainment.

Since Russia has clearly been sending mostly their 18-year old conscripts, who thought they'd go on a training mission, to the fronts in Ukraine, together with a massive bunch of old machinery, vehicles that fall apart out of misery and no fuel and food, maybe the serious Russian army is still waiting to defend against Japan?

Yeah, one has to be fair and outline that the Nordstream 2 is way too close to Ribbentrop-Molotov for comfort. Crazy it ever happened, but you know, money..
