“This will be Russian land or scorched earth!” The commander of Russian forces in Zaporizhzhya, who’s also the head of Russia’s defense “against” radioactive, chemical and biological threats reportedly threatens “various scenarios” at Enerhodar plant.
According to this pro-Russian site, General Major Valeriy Vasilev has ordered his troops to prepare to follow an “important order”. “We have already mined all of the important objects at the Zaporizhzhya Nuclear Power Station…
“And we are not hiding it from our enemy. We are alerting them. They know that it’ll be Russian, or nobody’s. We are prepared for the consequences of [taking] this step.”

I’m going to summarize an interview with Greens MEP @ViolavonCramon in English here on how Germany came to be dependent on Russian gas, because it’s politically important and interesting. I hope I have everything right:

(THREAD)
- Certain people wanted to make Germany on Russian gas and thus dependent on Russia in terms of security policies/foreign policies

- “Everyone in Berlin” knew that Nord Stream 1 and 2 were about politics as much as cheap gas but pretended otherwise, using fancy concepts
- In the state of Lower Saxony, (Schröder’s) SPD was the driving force for this

- At a federal level, the Foreign Ministry, the Economics Ministry and the secret services were all involved to varying degrees

Unbelievable scenes at the funeral of anti-corruption activist and soldier Roman Ratushnyi, allegedly executed by the Russians near Izyum. Over a thousand people turned out to mourn him on the Maidan in central Kyiv, as the air-raid sirens wailed and dozens stood sobbing.
At Baykove Cemetery, where Kyiv’s great and good are buried, Roman’s father Taras and his mother Svitlana said goodbye to Roman, who was just 24 when he died.
You had to admire the grief and poise of both of his parents, as they mourned their son before a City. People chanted “thank you to the Ratushnyis” over and over again.
