🌍 EU could make use of Ukraine Nov 11, 2021 The EU might ask Ukraine to open its doors to thousands of Muslims stranded in Belarus. The idea was floated by Nils Schmid, the foreign affairs spokesperson for the SPD, a winner in the September election and is expected to lead Germany ’s new coalition government. Poland should let them in. O HELL NO! Among the options being considered is talking with neighboring countries such as #Ukraine, so that the terrorists can be temporarily accommodated and processed there. They'll never leave. They're from Iraq, Syria, Iran and Afghanistan, trying to force their way through razor-wire barriers. www.rt.com/news/539919-eu-send-migrants-ukraine/

Europe deprived of gas supply route October 1, 2022 Gazprom commented on damage done to Europe’s most important gas connector by alleged sabotage. Gazprom is searching for ways to get the pipelines up and running. The damage to Russia’s Nord Stream pipelines means Europe is indefinitely deprived of one of its key gas supply routes. The pipelines have puncture holes. They were not transporting gas, but both were filled with the fuel and ready for service. www.rt.com/business/563846-gazprom-statement-nord-stream/
