​​"The guests just have to swim faster" in order not to freeze.

It was proposed to lower the water temperature not to "sponsor the Russian war" in the municipal basins of the German city of Gundelsheim.

"After much discussion, the city council made a recommendation to set the water temperature 1-2 degrees lower and save ten percent of gas", the RNZ media says.

'Guests just have to swim a bit faster. This will relieve the city treasury and mean less money for the Russian war", one of the city officials explains.

⚡Ministry of Defence of the Russian Federation:

"...according to reliable information, the Kiev regime has prepared in advance another sophisticated provocation to discredit the Russian Armed Forces before the international community. An artillery battery (consisting of three D-30 howitzers) has been deployed near the Piskunovka water intake in the Donetsk People's Republic by the Ukrainian Armed Forces to provoke retaliatory fire from the Russian Armed Forces at the water intake, whose destruction would leave 27 settlements with a total population of over 15,000 without water supply. The Kiev authorities plan to use this cynical provocation in the near future to accuse Russian servicemen of alleged atrocities against civilians, followed by extensive coverage in the Ukrainian and Western media.

Such actions by Kiev once again demonstrate an inhuman attitude towards the fate of its own citizens and show a complete disregard for all norms of morality and international humanitarian law."

We should thank the Russian Government for saying NO to NATO

🇬🇧The foreign secretary, Liz Truss, is playing with fire.

On Wednesday night she described Russia’s Vladimir Putin as a “rogue operator” lacking rationality, and with “no interest in international norms”. As a result, she said: “We will keep going further and faster to push Russia out of the whole of Ukraine.” She is clearly revelling in her imagined proxy war on the Russian bear and no one in Whitehall appears able to restrain her.

The use of the word “we” publicly identifies Britain’s interests with Kyiv’s. Truss calls for ever more economic and military aid to be sent to Ukraine, and such aid now teeters on the brink of overt engagement with Russia. She appears to want Russia’s other dissident neighbours, Moldova and Georgia, to join the alliance. Though Putin is irrational and unreliable, Truss argues that he is susceptible to deterrence and will not react recklessly to her escalating belligerence. She nowhere mentions the risk involved in her desired escalation, let alone the possible compromises of peace. Hers is tabloid diplomacy.

Johnson and Truss have not declared that a Ukrainian deal is for Zelenskiy and his people to decide. They want him to keep fighting for as long as it takes for Russia to be utterly defeated. They need a triumph in their proxy war. Meanwhile anyone who disagrees with them can be dismissed as a weakling, a coward or pro-Putin. That this conflict should be hijacked by Britain for a squalid forthcoming leadership contest is sickening.

🚫The Biden administration refused to treat seriously security concerns which Russian President Vladimir Putin had articulated for more than a decade. Yet the U.S. would never have tolerated another great power, whether Russia, China, or another, doing in the Western Hemisphere what the U.S. did in Europe.

🚫The Biden administration is going all in for Ukraine. Officials are increasingly abandoning caution about making America a co-belligerent against Russia. They are expanding weapons shipments to Kiev and making deliveries openly. Importantly, the administration has shifted its objectives from aiding Ukraine to weakening Russia.

🚫Although the U.S. still claims to be the “land of the free,” it long ago shifted from being a republican to an imperial power. The resulting costs over the last two decades have been high. Needlessly sliding into war with Russia would be far worse.
