Ständige Überlastung, lange Arbeitszeiten und wenig Lohn stellen Schweizer Physiotherapiepraxen vor Herausforderungen. Nun kündigte der Bundesrat eine Tarifkürzung an.❌ Der Verband #Physioswiss wehrt sich mit einer #Petition. Was denkst du dazu?

🇩🇪 ist Irans wichtigster Handelspartner in Europa. Teile der Exportgüter landen in 🇮🇷 Kamikazedrohnen, die von 🇷🇺 gegen die #Ukraine eingesetzt werden. Die BuReg unternimmt erkennbar nichts dagegen. Die Geschäfte laufen trotz Protesten & Krieg weiter. https://t.co/8lSCi6NEgH

"We exist as long as we oppress others" - a Russian person explains how Russia works.

According to him, Russia's entire history consists of three recurring phases - preparation for war, war and reconstruction after the war. The empire cannot allow anyone to live better, so every country with a higher standard of living is an enemy.

With increasingly pathetic excuses & his personal, unilateral blocking of #Taurus missiles for #Ukraine, @Bundeskanzler Olaf Scholz sends a clear message to the Kremlin: As long as I’m in power, Germany won’t stand in your way. https://t.co/LNMZytkPUd

Can we keep #globalwarming below 1.5°C?

#IPCC: If global CO2 emissions continue at current rates, the remaining carbon budget for keeping warming to 1.5°C will likely be exhausted before 2030.

Multiple options to reduce emissions are available now.

Some ppl still have a Cold War hangover. For them the idea of Russian defeat in #Ukraine blurs into a vision of Mutually Assured Destruction. 🇺🇦’s successful strikes on the Black Sea Fleet, Kerch Bridge & in RU itself show these fears are baseless. Don’t fear victory, hasten it.

1/4. Plan was to work on freedom book at Sabaneev cafe here in Odesa. Hadn't realized it was hit by a rocket during the Russian attack on the historic city center on 23 July.

[Guy Verhofstadt @guyverhofstadt]

This one’s for those that want to negotiate with Putin...

His words mean nothing.
His signature is not worth the paper it’s written on.
Appeasing him will always fail.

The sad but indisputable truth is: Ukraine must win the war… or we’ll never be at peace.

David Frum sums up the Elon Musk decision to disable Starlink so that Ukraine couldn’t attack Russian vessels with drones:

Space X did help to escalate the conflict. Russia escalated the air war thanks to the failed raid on Sevastopol. Thousands of Ukrainians died as a consequence. Space X thus contributed to both escalation and to death of civilians and enormous suffering during the winter.

[Kira Rudik @kiraincongress]

Instead of dreaming of cozy winter evenings at home with loved ones, we think about how to survive. russia will undoubtedly seek to break us with cold and dark again. But we’ll manage.

Alisa, 8, and her older brother were forced to learn poems for a Russian military holiday and were convinced that Ukrainian soldiers were killing civilians. After a year in #Russia, the children still fear being in #Ukraine.

One day, 14-year-old Taras was hit by Russian teenagers with a bicycle in the street because they knew he was from Ukraine. And Olesia recalls how all Ukrainian children were forced to sing the song “Wagner is a cool regiment” at a holiday party. At school, their peers called them Banderites and said that Ukrainians were to blame for the war. And 16-year-old Mykola, who left a round orphan three years ago due to both parents' health, was so distraught that he was forced to take a Russian passport. They said they would take him to the basement if he did not take one.

These are the memories of the children we recently returned to Ukraine as part of our 10th mission. Instead of a happy, carefree childhood with their families, they have experienced pain, humiliation, and abuse just because they are Ukrainians. The mental health of the children is out of the question. Our priority is to help children recover as soon as possible, close the gaps in their education, and start living a new, happy life.

Every child is essential to the @SaveukraineUs team.

russia has killed over 24,000 civilians in Syria. Most underreported crime of this century.

[Михайло Подоляк @Podolyak_M]

Kryvy Rih today. Another direct missile strike on civilians. 72 injured, 1 killed. Classic Russian-style terrorism. Does anyone still want to agree to #Russia's demands, accept its conditions, negotiate, or lift sanctions? Perhaps someone wants to kneel before Russia? Or is it time to legally designate the terrorist state as a terrorist state and remove it from the #UN Security Council?

A very remarkable thought from Garry Kasparov in response to Musk, who disabled Starlink in Crimea last year to disrupt Ukraine's strike on the Russian fleet.

“Putin backs down when confronted with force & strikes when he feels safe”, he wrote.

“Exposing how dangerous it is to have fickle, misinformed oligarchs with leverage over US national security. SpaceX & Starlink are marvelous, but if Musk's delusional "anti-war" agenda leads him to interfere with their services to Russia's advantage, it's a huge risk.

Russian ships in the Black Sea and bases around it launch missiles into Ukrainian marketplaces and destroy vital shipping and food processing facilities, threatening millions with starvation. But according to Musk, the real danger is Ukrainian defending itself?

The provocation fallacy has been refuted many times, recently by Prigozhin's mutiny. Putin backs down when confronted with force & strikes when he feels safe. Ukraine has hit occupied Crimea & Russian sites repeatedly. Escalation risks rise when Putin is winning, not losing.” he wrote.

„Die Russen sind nicht chaotisch, sondern sehr gezielt vorgegangen. Die Eltern wurden bewusst getötet, die Kinder bewusst verschleppt.“

Dramatische Schilderungen, die auch den genozidalen Charakter des russischen Angriffskrieges deutlich machen.

[Ingwar Perowanowitsch @Perowinger94]

In Mannheim erleben wir gerade enthemmte Gewalt gegen Aktivisten. Sie werden geschlagen, getreten & gezerrt. Ein Schaubild dessen, was geschieht, wenn Menschen medial und politisch zum Abschuss freigegeben werden. Die Verrohung der Sprache; sie zeigt sich hier auf der Straße.

[Anton Gerashchenko @Gerashchenko_en]

Genocide of Ukrainians: Russian passport or death. A resident of Mariupol with diabetes turned to a local hospital, where he was denied a vital medicine, because he did not have a Russian passport.

"This is the policy of occupiers aimed at Russification of the city at any cost. Therefore, Mariupol residents are forced to obtain Russian passports. At the same time, they impose strict conditions. Without a passport, it is impossible to receive assistance, life-saving treatment, find a job, or move freely. People have to choose - either to get a document and have at least some rights, or just die," Vadym Boychenko, mayor of Mariupol, said.

"And then, the same experts, that told us that Ukraine would fall within weeks, are complaining about the speed of defensive. The reality is that Ukraine is actually exceeding expectations again and again. And we need to remember what’s our responsibility. Our responsibility is to support them." - @jensstoltenberg
