The Rashists left Chernobyl after one of their crazy units dug in a radioactive forest, and the Ukrainian staff of the closed power plant scared the Rashists of all possible consequences.

Russia also bombed itself. In the Voronezh region, a Russian missile did not reach Ukraine and destroyed a village. in c/ukraine@sopuli.xyz

It must have been a cruise missile. The cruise missiles which Russia uses to bomb us are sizeable and have a huge impact.

EU readies €20bn plan B to fund Ukraine (www.ft.com)
 

Officials involved in talks said one model funded by debt has gained traction as the most practical way to provide support if Orbán refuses to drop his veto at a planned summit on February 1.

This scheme would involve participating member states issuing guarantees to the EU budget, enabling the European Commission to borrow up to €20bn on capital markets for Kyiv next year, people briefed on the talks said. The precise terms are still under discussion and the final amount would be set according to Ukraine’s needs, they added.

The arrangement is similar to the structure used in 2020 when the commission provided up to €100bn in cheap financing to EU countries for short-term work-support schemes during the Covid pandemic.

Crucially, the option would not require guarantees from all the EU’s 27 member states, as long as the main participants included countries with top credit ratings. That would allow the EU to sidestep Hungary’s veto because it would not require unanimous backing.

Some countries, including Germany and the Netherlands, would need parliamentary approval for national guarantees, a process that officials hope could be completed in time to provide aid to Ukraine by March.

Russians join Ukrainian battalion to fight against their own country in c/ukraine@sopuli.xyz
[–] Ulara@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 year ago

The Siberian battalion consists mostly of people "from ethnic minorities from Russia's far east". Modern Russia is a huge quasi-empire, with Muscovy oppressing all the colonized nations and regions. Ukrainians, being formerly colonized, feel with all the oppressed nations and support their fight for freedom.

That's why Ukrainians actively support the "Free Nations League" https://freenationsleague.org/ and this Siberian battalion. Imperialism is deeply ingrained in the flesh and bones of Muscovy, so Ukrainians are wary of it.

Muscovy destroyed the democracies of the medieval republics: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Novgorod_Republic https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pskov_Republic

Ukrainians have way more in common with these democracies, which were the closest allies of the ancient Kyiv state, than with Muscovy, which has always sought to oppress and enslave Ukraine.

Whatever Muscovy says, it will inevitably seek to oppress due to the law of "imperial boomerang" https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imperial_boomerang

We can be true friends only with free people of independent nations.

Thank you for your compassion. The main thing is that F-16s will soon be here to protect the Ukrainian skies.

Thank you for your kindness. Ukraine is in indeed subjected to daily attacks. Fortunately most of the missiles are shot down, but air raids in the middle of the night or at any time of the day are stressful.

I have a nice place to live in Ukraine, but many refugees have nowhere to return to.

Ukraine is not safe these days, and many Ukrainians have nowhere to return to.
