Germany — National parliament voting intention

Far right AfD is increasing the rate of it's growth and thus it is now just a single percent behind center left SPD.
However If they pass them that will surely create a certain political shock. Plus with these numbers and trends hypothetical center right-far right coalition is becoming possible.
In Germany that probably wouldn't happen but the combination is the newest trend in European politics. So if enough other countries does it ... as they say "never say never".

Ukraine sells itself as the EU’s new energy hub

And now we are coming to what was perhaps the main point of this war. Removing Ukraine before it takes your customers.

True, but the fact is that they also have to take time to soften Russian logistics. What is being done but it takes time.
However this have to be done first in order to lower your own loses and reduce chances that you will get stuck.

Special Forces soldiers reveal first details of battle with Russian mercenaries in Syria

Here's how the grueling 2018 firefight went down.

Spoiler (an actual spoiler!):

The exact casualty count for the Feb. 7 fight is unclear, but sources have estimated between 100 and 300 Russian and pro-Syrian fighters were killed or wounded in the battle. Russian officials claim only five Russian citizens died, but audio recordings of Wagner Group soldiers suggest hundreds of mercenaries were killed. One Wagner Group veteran confirmed the Apache attack in the recordings, describing it as “a f***ing merry-go-round with heavy-caliber machine guns.”

“To make it short, we’ve had our f***ing asses kicked,” one Wagner Group veteran says in a recording. “They tore us to pieces. … They beat our asses like we were little pieces of sh*t.”

Nine of the 10 tanks were destroyed, as well as all six artillery pieces. The Special Forces team destroyed the lone surviving tank a few days later.

“We did not sustain a single injury,” Chauncey says. “We didn’t sustain a single death. I mean, guys were dinged up. Guys had PTSD from that battle, but everyone made it home.”

It wasnt Dr Strangelove was it?

That movie becomes more realistic by the day. Are you familiar with the story about how one of those three-letter-organizations approached Kubrick to find out how he managed to show such a realistic presentation of the inside of a war room he could had never seen and that wasn't accessable to the public?

That was just random figure of speech on my part.
Since nuclear power plant on borrowed time is kinda the movie plot material.

That's easy. Kubrick's mind encompasses all things dark.
