🕵️♀️ There is a lot of conspiracy about the men in military uniforms who stood behind Putin in his New Year’s address. Federal Protective Service, actors or war criminals? We found them all ➡️ https://evocation.info/en/massage-for-putin-who-really-stood-behind-the-dictator-in-his-new-year-address/

looking at the intended use of the "distinguish" template, it is presumably there to handle typos of cosmetology

Är det så stor skillnad från NYTs "Deadly strike on Russians"?
Själv tycker jag det är lite mer magstarkt att köpa Ukrainas version att skolan med soldater i exploderade eftersom ryssarna var ovarsamma. Det är nog ingen som tror på det, så att rubriksätta därefter såsom WAPO gjorde utan att säga vem som avfyrade missilerna är också konstigt.
Personligen tror jag kalle mer invände mot att rubriken pratar om hur ledsna och arga ryssarna blev, som om det vore synd om dem. Men om det är den faktiska reaktionen så känns det ändå som en rimlig rubrik.
En skulle iofs kunna rubriksätta med "ingen påverkan på stridsviljan", men tveksamt om det känns mer neutralt.

In 2023, Russia plans to resume ICBM launches from Kapustin Yar. These are normally launched toward Sary-Shagan in Kazakhstan to test re-entry vehicles. But since the last such test, in Nov 2019, TPNW treaty come into force. Kazakhstan is a party https://russianforces.org/blog/2022/12/missile_launches_in_2022_and_p.shtml 1/

Is geopolitics a grift? Is it a mind palace for reactionaries? Both? Why do geopoliticians blow off climate change and environmental degradation? And what did Nazis, in particular, see appealing in geopolitics? I sat down w/ Daniel Immerwahr (author of How to Hide an Empire) for a two-part podcast discussion that is definitely worth your time. Here's a sample https://youtu.be/HGwYNigNk_I

That's just the swedish press ethical standard, without a conviction in court you got to be pretty famous to get you name for in the paper for harassment. Don't expect a national broadsheet to challenge the guidelines on press ethics over some curiosity story about a interpersonal conflict at a university

Lynching is a common form of violence in Latin America. How common?
Today, we release the first cross-national dataset on reported «Lynching in Latin America» (LYLA) from 2010-2019:
We found evidence of 2818 cases.

Jag förstår inte riktigt vad du menar? Halva artikeln handlar ju om hur det ska gå till, vilket i korthet är: erbjud Kremlin (viss) legitimitet och en del garantier villkorat mot fred och att de lämnar trovärdiga garantier.
Att denna enkla ide inte i sig är realistisk fredsplan är förvisso sant, men å andra sidan är det sant för alla planer för tillfället, så det är en tradig invändning.
Jag läser det mer som att texten vill visa fördelen med att ha en positiv vision för Rysslands framtid, istället för att som nu typ bara hota att döda alla ryssar om de inte skärper sig.

Att en skulle komma att sakna all dessa "hosta kan vara dold sjukdom" rubriker, och tänka på dem som spår av bättre tider var inte något jag väntat mig
@russianforces
I really appreciate you have the stamina to keep speaking this humane perspective in public Pavel!
But I can also appreciate the objection (and here I am reading people very generously) that just speaking of almost utopic futures is not that useful.
What concrete conclusions on immediate goals do you draw from the dream of a democratic Russia?

But if you stop now will it still count as a Christmas miracle in the next report to CNRS?

@PopovaProf Still, their anti-war position has been very clear and explicit from the beginning. Their position could not possibly have been misunderstood by someone who watches regularly or even just occasionally their broadcasts. More broadly, revoking a license to a media should be done only in the most extreme of circumstances, such as unrepentant hate speech or call to violence. They've been doing the contrary. It's really a wrong decision, in principle and in context.
