Non ho mai scritto a riguardo della raffineria di alluminio ad Aughinish in Irlanda; pensavo erroneamente: quanto alluminio può mai produrre l’Irlanda per la Russia?
Mi sbagliavo. La raffineria di Aughinsh, posseduta dal colosso russo “Rusal” (posseduto dall’oligarca Deripaska) produce un terzo di tutto il (poco) alluminio ancora prodotto in Europa. Tutto questo alluminio è trasportato in Russia dove viene usato per nutrire lo stesso complesso militare industriale che rade al suolo le città ucraine facendo stragi di civili.
Ma lo scandalo è ancora maggiore di quello che potrebbe sembrare: che le sanzioni europee non siano affatto complete e permettano ancora tali follie non era una novità. Quello che personalmente mi ha scandalizzato è il modo in cui i politici irlandesi, incalzati dal bravissimo reporter Caolan, neghino che la raffineria abbia una qualche connessione con il complesso militare russo, nonostante tutto, a partire dalle insegne fuori dalla struttura, porti a tale conclusione.
Questa roba deve finire all’istante. La raffineria va sanzionata, chiusa e basta.
@VanberghenEU@kajakallas@NATO Ever heard the mantra -
"Cause and effect"
The invasion has caused the resulting effects, including those which are unintended.
This is some very funny and factually inaccurate Kremlin propaganda. What is your doctorate in, Ms Ulgen?
When Putin came to power Russia was NOT in ruins. In 1999 the Russian GDP was growing at 6.4%; in 2000 it was growing at 10%. This growth was economy’s response to painful yet necessary economic reforms of the 1990 which transitioned Russia’s economy from centrally planned to a market system.
Yes you are having a 'free' conversation because RT and Putin like what you say, ordinary Russians are prevented by law from speaking out, they have no free speech or political opposition, no free press or international press, even the Internet is withdrawn.
Scott Ritter tells me that CNN and the BBC should stop being treated as journalistic outlets and be called what they are: propaganda tools.
He argues that voices like his are smeared as “Russian propagandists” while real open discussion is more possible here than on major Western networks.
“We’re having a fair and freer conversation here right now than CNN or BBC will ever have.”
Russia was never fully colonised by the West. We resisted through all our history. We will do the same until the end of time. The West wants to annihilate us. We want just to limit its ambitions. And preserve our sovereignty and freedom. Our victory doesn’t mean the end of West.
@prosto_Oxana39@andrii_sybiha@Biz_Ukraine_Mag He 'elected' himself, he's been in power for over 25 years, some say since 1999.
Whatever you're led to believe he needs the war to stay in power, Russians accept that because they have to, political opposition is banned so is free press, international press & Internet.
@STANISKRAPIVNIK@andrii_sybiha He probably keeps it in Dubai alongside Putin, Lavrov and Peskov.
Do you honestly believe your leaders keep their stash in Russia?
@AnnaDeMilanese Economic expediency is the winner in the Irish republic, not the lives of Ukrainian civilians, women and children.
As president of the European Commission, of which Ireland is a member, does Ms Ursula von der Leyen intend to address this outrage?
Don't hold your breath.
Agree with @IainDale. Labour’s so desperate to dump Starmer they are beginning to rummage in the rubbish. I’ve seen more brains than Burnham in my local butchers.
“Restore sits precisely at the junction between irrelevance and mischief.”
Gawain Towler with more truths about Restore this week.
It’s all a game to Lowe. A game borne out of spite.
Everything Ukrainian journalists document is our truth about this war and evidence of Russian crimes. And it is important that this work be of high quality and contribute to accountability for all of Russia’s crimes and attacks on life. I thank the journalists and all media employees who work for Ukraine and show the world what our people have to endure and how we fight for our independence.
Today, we also thank all dedicated foreign media professionals who stand on the right side of history and ensure that the world does not forget or remain silent about what is happening in Ukraine. It is precisely this active support that helps us secure assistance at the political level.
And all of us must preserve the memory and honor the contribution to our fight of those journalists who were killed in this war.
Congratulations on Journalist’s Day!
The Iranian navy, which has been destroyed eight times, has apparently closed the Strait of Hormuz again, because the United States, for the seventh time, won the war that wasn’t a war, so now the United States has to open the Strait of Hormuz that was already open before the not-war began.
The not-war began because Iran had uranium that was totally, completely, beautifully obliterated, so they can’t build the nuclear bomb they weren’t building, which is why the United States had to start the not-war it definitely didn’t start.
Now the United States, which has nuclear weapons, is threatening to use nuclear weapons to stop Iran from getting nuclear weapons, because nuclear weapons are far too dangerous for countries with nuclear weapons to allow other countries to have.
If the United States saw the United States doing what the United States does in other countries, the United States would invade the United States to liberate the United States from the tyranny of the United States.
