France on Saturday seized a car cargo ship in the English Channel that Washington says was linked to the son of a former Russian spy chief, in one of the first visible displays of the West enforcing sanctions on Moscow over its Ukraine invasion.


The “Baltic Leader” was headed for St. Petersburg but was diverted to the port of Boulogne-sur-Mer in northern France between 3 am and 4 am (0200-0300 GMT), Captain Veronique Magnin of the French Maritime Prefecture told Reuters.
The vessel was “strongly suspected of being linked to Russian interests targeted by the sanctions,” she said.

Unlike Germany and Japan, Russia never apologised nor paid any reparations for what they did to their neighbours during and after WW2.
Wait! Japan apologized? Any link to that?

How is that going to help? Unless there are starlink dishes and installers everywhere..
The same way SA is going to get involved... Trying to stay relevant in news headlines.

Starlink costs alone are far out of reach for most Ukrainians. Their GDP is less than ours.

Unless it's purely for the government and media :unsure: then I guess it will work

Yeah, but how is it going to help the average Ukrainian? You do realize that the average salary in Ukraine is around $500 a month. The kit costs that amount and then another $99 per month. Who is going to be able to afford it?

Those weren't modern photos of Trump or Putin either, can you go check those dates for me? It's important that I know what day they were taken on.
