Ukrainian troops routed Swedish forces during NATO drills simulating a Russian attack on Gotland, AP reported. The exercise focused on defending the strategic Baltic island and brought in Ukrainian troops to sharpen NATO’s drone warfare skills.

🇩🇪🇹🇷 Cem Özdemir, politician for the green party and of Turkish descent, has become the new minister president of the state of Baden-Württemberg.

He's the first German with Turkish roots to ever serve as minister president of a state.

One might assume this would make Turkey happy however Özdemir is a massive enemy of Erdogan with him being accused of having ties to the PKK and having revived police protection due to Turkish officials calling him a terrorist.

🇦🇲 Özdemir was also the initiator and champion of the 2016 Bundestag resolution to officially recognize the Armenian genocide, which passed.

Due to this Özdemir received numerous death threat's and got called a traitor in Turkey, with his name being erased from the list of honored sons of his father's hometown back in Turkey

While many will point to this as evidence of how the west shouldn't have given money to Ukraine I think the fact that it's being investigated at this level is a major step in preventing future corruption for the country
