And their assets will be seized by the government.

But it important to keep repeating .. companies are not moral. They are profit driven, cost externalizing entities. If you want or need them to do something for the public good.. you legislate them.

One thing Russia understands better than the western world. It might be a dog and pony show, but they don't ask nicely. When dealing with companies, that is the only way.

Poland to limit movement of Russian diplomats on its territory due to Moscow's involvement in hybrid war against the EU ( www.reuters.com ) Englisch

Poland will introduce restrictions on the movement of Russian diplomats on its territory due to Moscow's involvement in what it deems a hybrid war against the European Union, Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski said on Monday....

I'd say that this restriction should be removed. If you want to impose a restriction, restrict it to valid military targets... But this is kinda redundant. Ukranians are not in the habit of targeting schools, hospitals, post offices, more schools and hospitals, DIY centers, coffee houses and other civic centers.

Seems like a no-brainer to turn it into an untakable fortress and unsinkable aircraft carrier.

It's not like it is densely populated or a tourist hotspot.

The question is also which companies are complaining. But it does seem like the European defense strategy needs more attention and standardize the militaries.

One type of apc platform, one type of mbt etc etc. but this is all long term.

But you also hear of the excuse making like Germany with the Taurus.. it wil take months to start and then the manufacturer states they can start production next month and include upgrades as well.

I hope this gets sorted.

Protected charging stations like a birds nest, autonomous pathfinding and a suit of sensors complemented by a good software suite for rotor drones complemented by fixed wing drones with massive optical arrays. And those legged dog drones. Border patrol can just work from home.

And a moat across the entire border.. with friggin sharks with friggin laser beams attached to their heads.

But seriously if my neighbor was Russia, I'd start building an anti tank moat, dragons teeth and the option for mines on either side of the moat. Use the potential minefield as farmland till it's needed as minefield. Pillboxes and a network of bunkers.

Who would have thought that if you go out and actively look for stuff you might actually find it.

But review is good I guess. Is it being over diagnosed, or do we really have to rethink stuff because there are loads of people struggling in the construct we have created because they are not neurotypical.

My guess is ADHD is more common than we thought and it needs to get more attention by not only diagnosing and medicating where needed, it also requires other systemic changes to accommodate for ADHD.

Like dyslexia.. on my youth people where just considered slow or stupid.. turns out they had a condition out of their control.

Fair enough, I was just referencing how they then talked about people with A low IQ.

I'm not looking forward to whole exclaves of Putin supporting ethnic Russians already fighting for independence while at the same time benefitting, to join the EU.

Edit: Transnistrië, not whole moldova.

Well, just show... It is a dangerous show then.

We already see what the effects of putinists in Hungary and Slovakia are having. It just has me worried.

Essentially that's mandated. Companies don't do it... But that is the law. And they can store a cookie with that info without requiring permission as it is essential to performing that action.

U.S. warned Austria's Raiffeisen Bank International (RBI) access to dollar system could be curbed over Russia ( www.reuters.com ) Englisch

TLDR: RBI, the largest Western bank in Russia, has been warned by the U.S. Treasury about financial system access in a letter voicing concerns over its Russian business.

I'd be interested in an investigation and prosecution of the decision makers at RBI.

    Would be good if the frozen assets remain as a souverein wealth fund to keep doing these kind of payments.. as the ultimate fuck you.

    2 different streams of ideology. Good chance that this was one of the pro Russian people that was just in it to destabilize the evil west.

    I'd imagine that this is a proper precaution on the side of the Baltics. Having several pre dug fortified defense lines could make the difference.

    I can only imagine that the future Russo Ukranian border will look more like that between the Korea's than anything else..

    The EU should stop ‘westsplaining’ and listen to its smaller eastern members – they saw the Ukraine war coming, researcher says ( theconversation.com ) Englisch

    There is a "stark difference of opinion between countries like Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Poland and the Czech Republic as compared to western European countries such as France or Germany", writes Viktoriia Lapa from the Institute for European Policymaking at the Bocconi University in Italy, arguing that “westsplaining”...

    The fact that these countries all had stocks of the exact equipment Ukraine was already using. The EU setup a "buy back" of equipment. Where these countries could donate their equipment to Ukraine and they where reimbursed from an EU fund. This made sure Ukraine could use their existing supply lines and support systems to keep the gear running.

    This is the race.
    Who will tire of the war first. Russia, Ukraine, the Ukranian partners. And how many will die before that point.
