Ahhh. He sees himself as a “real” man looking after “his” woman. Who happens to be isolated from her family, alone in a strange country, younger than him, and now requires “constant care”.

So many red flags there it looks like a Chinese national rally…..

On a lighter note. How the hell did Russia run out of potatoes?

www.bbc.co.uk

Russia's McDonald's replacement runs low on fries

Some outlets of the new "Tasty and that's it" chain stop serving fries due to a potato shortage.
www.bbc.co.uk

it’s literally the only plant that grows in parts of that country.

And a decade later we had the Clean Air Act!
(I realise that's not the point but I think shows that an easy looking answer can turn out to be badly complicated)

Lithuania on Monday expanded restrictions on trade through its territory to Russia's Baltic exclave of Kaliningrad, as more European Union sanctions against Moscow over its invasion of Ukraine took effect.

Russia and Belarus seem to have made some low level threats in the meantime. Also cyberattacks apparently

Ukraine grain: Kyiv optimistic on Russia deal to reopen Black Sea

Tough talks are needed to reopen safe cargo routes for the grain that Russia has trapped in Ukraine.
www.bbc.co.uk

"Navigating these issues is the main aim of talks taking place in Istanbul on Wednesday, with delegations from Ukraine, Russia, Turkey and the United Nations trying to find a way through."

Not sure if that's Wednesday today or next week but progress is progress, and hopefully in a forward direction.

The 12 long range weapons seem to be quite effective. I wonder if stuff to take out boats will be arriving soon? Surely the blockade in the black sea is sitting ducks once modern tech is ready to be used?

I left my family for Ukrainian lodger…now I'm jobless and we're skint

A BRIT who left the mother of his children for a Ukrainian refugee has revealed his new relationship has cost him his job and livelihood. Tony Garnett, 29, walked out on partner Lorna and their two…
www.thesun.co.uk www.thesun.co.uk

Loads of points to make after reading that......

1) It's his fault he's known because he went to the press.
2) How is he skint if he's been selling his story regularly to the media?
3) If he's been earning £2,000 a week where are his savings for a rainy day as it is now for him with no jobs coming in?
4) His business is poor if he was reliant so much on work from the NHS as you can't rely on just one place.

.... I see that the Arab UAE ( and Israeli " Holiday Agents' ) didn't waste any time in securing Ukrainian refugees for being press-ganged into sex trafficking slavery ( from Moldova as well)

The UAE exploits the war in Ukraine to attract women for prostitution

Informed sources revealed that Emirate and Israeli companies cooperated in exploiting the war in Ukraine to attract women to prostitution in both countries.

EU slowly edging away from reliance on Russian gas, just as Gazprom has said they may accidentally due to unforeseen circumstances be totally randomly unable to restore supplies to previous levels for completely unknown reasons (etc).

EU signs deal with Azerbaijan to double gas imports by 2027

Azerbaijan’s gas imports to the bloc will reach 20 billion cubic metres by 2027 as the EU seeks non-Russian suppliers.
