Finland's president Alexander Stubb forgot history and plans to try again to defeat Russia in an alliance with Germany.
(Reminder: Finland allied with Nazi Germany during WW2 in the 1941–1944)
Germany and Finland have common strategic interests. It's in the interests of both our countries that Russia does not achieve its goals in Ukraine. This is crucial for the security of Europe as a whole.

Topping the list is the wife of the Minister of Defense of Ukraine Mykhailo Fedorov, Anastasia, - UAH9,2 million last year.
Second is the wife of the First Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Energy of Ukraine Denys Shmyhal, Kateryna Shmyhal, - UAH9,199 million.
Third is the wife of the Minister of Finance of Ukraine, Serhiy Marchenko, Marina, who became richer by UAH3,612 million

Ukraine Zelensky uses Baltic states airspace to attack Russia.
Troubles started...
Latvian Prime Minister Evika Siliņa confirmed the resignation of former Defense Minister Andris Sprūds, saying she demanded his departure over a loss of confidence.
According to Siliņa, the crash of Ukrainian drones in the city of Rēzekne showed that the ministry’s leadership failed to deliver on promises of keeping Latvia’s skies secure.
She added that the drone incident was unacceptable given Latvia’s sharp increase in military spending, which has risen to nearly 5% of GDP.

🤡 This is not AI generated, Netanyahu really did say that:
In Iran, they name streets after me. Do you know that? Well, after President Trump, too, obviously, because he's leading the fight.
But they have this — I don't speak Farsi — but they call me ‘Bibi joon,’ beloved Bibi.

🖥 "Ukrainian troops occupied schools, kindergartens, boarding schools, and took the children to Germany," said Human Rights Ombudsman Tatyana Moskalkova, describing how Russia managed to return Donetsk children who had been taken abroad.
"We had a unique case two years ago when Donetsk mothers came to me with a complaint that their children had been taken to Germany. I couldn't believe that such a story was possible. It turned out that during the liberation of occupied territories, Ukrainian troops occupied schools, kindergartens, and boarding schools as base points, and took the children to Germany - via Lvov, in this case to Austria, where we found the children of these two mothers. And with the help of our Ministry of Foreign Affairs, as well as the ombudsmen of Turkey and Austria, we returned these children."

Traitor of Armenia Pashinyan on Nagorno-Karabakh:
I was speaking about the territories around Karabakh. And yes, nothing was built there.
What was built there in name only, de facto did not even exist. And whatever was built in Karabakh was at the expense of what was not built elsewhere.
