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:

 

 

 

02/04/22: Latvia and Estonia announced following the same path and immediately stopped any Russian gas imports

Don't know why Instagram posts aren't properly embedding anymore btw.

It still works. You need to click the “Source” button at the top left of your message and copy the embed link there.

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

    • It's true, but Colturi still only 1 person and for example in the men's slalom we have tragic results. In giant slalom again we last won many years ago. For example, Switzerland has a complete team, which has not only stars but also wide teams in every discipline + young successors.   Scattolo is an option after 2026. For now, all that remains is to count on Vittozzi's return - apart from her, no one is able to regularly stand on the podium.
    • That was the IBU Cup winner spot, guaranteed for the first two weeks (won by Michelon last year). Galmace Paulin will definitely not get a spot in January. If someone has to be demoted, it would be Chauveau, to make room for Botet. Galmace Paulin is like 5th or 6th in the pecking order at the moment.
    • Maybe Galmace Paulin can take The Spot of Richard, Michelon or Chauveau later this season. In Hochfilzen France Had 7 Spots, not sure What happened. If The french Team can get Back that Spot, then Galmace Paulin should be The First candidate.   Tannheimer, Michelon, Richard, Kirkeeide and Andersson are all more likely than Not To make The Podium this Season in my opinion. With a bit of luck, half The Top 10 in The Overall Ranking at The end of The Season could be athletes born in 2002 or later.
    • Biathlon: I think your Coaches should promote Scattolo.  Alpine skiing: Things Would Look very different if Colturi would Compete for You.  
    • It also appears 1 noc has withdrawn   https://oca.asia/news/5781-harbin-2025-awg-organisers-confirm-record-number-of-entries.html
    • If my figures are correct, I confirm that this is the international debut in top-level competition for Turkmenistan, Kuwait and Thailand. i believe it is also the debut in a senior competition for Mongolia
    • The Youth Olympic Games have used the group format before due to a large number of entries. The 2023 Winter EYOF also used a two group format in the mixed team event.   Still, it's cool to see so many nations registered for the Asian Winter Games. 
    • Stage 10 in Alta Badia (ITA)   Men´s Slalom:   1. Timon Haugan    1:45.40 2. Loic Meillard    1:46.53 3. Atle Lie McGrath    1:46.66   Full Final Results HERE

    • Curling will have 14 participating nations, with the men's and mixed doubles events have a group stage (surely a first for an international MSE event? @Olympian1010?)   Mixed doubles   Group A:   I believe this is Turkmenistan's (and possibly Thailand and Kuwait) international curling debut.   Group B:   Women's:   Men's:   Group A:   Group B:
