Same thing in Poland; fans returning from St. Petersburg overwhelmed the testing facilities at the airport in Warsaw. gently caress knows how many got through, though there’s an obligatory 5 day quarantine and there’s a chances they’ll round up the smart asses that used the confusion to leg it.

Nenonen posted:It was such a great idea to play EURO 2020 games in St. Petersburg and with spectators. Bus loads of Finnish soccer fans went there and came back to border control simultaneously, overwhelming the testing capacity at border. Now the delta variant is spreading thanks to them and the only hope is that the fans who weren't tested will go to tests so all of the infection chains can be stopped. Good job, Finland. I hope 2000 euro some tourism rag made from this was worth it.

Yeah, I’ve been hearing from Russia on COVID-19 recently, and it’s really not pretty. I’d say I hope you’ll figure this out, but a local proverb comes to my mind: «Надежда - утешение дурака».

There are actual antivaxer protests happening in Russia. And the people protesting are not the liberal opposition, they are Putin's core voters, who bought into the initial propaganda, where vaccines have microchips in them, where COVID is just like a regular flu, and lockdowns only happen in the fascist Europe. And yet again, antivaxers perfectly reproduce American narratives, even though they would say they hate America and all it stands for. One actor's already compared compulsory vaccination to the Holocaust and explained why he doesn't want to get the jab with the phrase 'my body, my choice'. poo poo's wild.

As I recall it, it’s not quite that. There’s a guy called Kristian Rouz who worked both for Sputnik and OANN. MSNBC got sued by OANN over characterising the latter as Russian propaganda, and the court dismissed the suit, hitting OANN with a SLAPP fine.

Haramstufe Rot posted:Given that RT and Sputnik have been running anti vaxx content for months, you are saying Yes, it misfired terribly, but at the very least Russian government are not trying to correct the course, even if they still can't come up with one line to stick to. In the meantime, Belarus that never changed the tune from 'COVID is a joke', now just publishes what appears to be completely bogus numbers. Despite extremely low vaccination rates and basically no anti-pandemic measures in place, the number of new cases is steadily going down (they stopped publishing numbers for tests a while ago), while deaths is at the steady ~10 a day for almost a year regardless of how many active cases there are. Incidentally, the National Statistic Committee also stopped publishing information on mortality. But even from what they do still publish, ~30k people 'disappeared' on top of the official COVID deaths, the usual population decrease trend, and the increased immigration after the protests.

Now that's insane. Age of consent there is 15 and at the time he was big enough to become the prime minister, so it was not a fatal blow. In general, in EE’s cultural terms, Denmark is the most “rural” of Nordic countries.

Lukashenko said something so utterly stupid it kind of hurts me to type it, maybe Paladinus will elaborate better later. Basically they he was late to awards ceremony because they just finished a huge counter-terrorist operation. The operation in question is assassination attempt on government TV channel journalist Yuri Azarenok. The plan was to capture azarenok, drive him in the trunk of a car to a forest and have him cut off his own tongue with scissors and make a video of it. The operation used him as bait and hero Azarenok attacked and defeated the assassin himself without backup. The culprits behind this act of villainy are Lithuania, Poland, Ukraine, Germany and USA. There was some other stuff like thwarting an attack on Russian atlantic fleet comms station in Vileyka but I don't even want to go there. This is our life now. I just don't get how after everybody laughed and Nick and Mike, how nobody beleived in the "coup" attempt who could act anything other than stare at wide-eyed disbelief at sheer stupidity of this story. Sadly it just probably means more crackdowns and arrests and whatnot.

Apart from yet another 'terrorist attack', Lukashenko also ordered to 'completely close down' the border with Ukraine, because, apparently they keep sending weapons to all those countless terrorists may strike any moment now. There is no word on what that 'closing down' involves exactly, however, as Ukrainian officials didn't receive any official warning from Belarus. What's also funny is that earlier that very same day Lukashenko ordered to allow foreigners to get vaccinated in Belarus (for the low price of 50 dollars). This was done because a Ukrainian Rada member asked him nicely to help out. The same guy who got booted from the People's Servant party for meeting with Lukashenko and praising him for handling protests. Also, for context, Azaryonok is not a journalist In his own words, he's a propagandist. And the most vile kind at that. I honestly have never seen this amount of hatred even from seasoned Russian propagandists like Solovyov or Kisilyov. Whatever tropes about gay nazis you can imagine, multiply it by ten, add a really awkward pose, and that's Azaryonok's show. And yes, Lukashenko gave him a medal for his heroic reporting on the protests, where he got mocked and spat on by elderly women.
