Mayor Steve Rotheram of the #Liverpool City Region welcomed the £2bn funding announcement for #transport in the North, calling it a shift towards a government that recognises the importance of investing in the region. He highlighted the progress made, such as the introduction of publicly owned trains and the return of control over buses. Rotheram praised the funding for a new station in the #Baltic Triangle, a rapidly growing area in Liverpool. The new #Merseyrail station will support local growth and is part of plans for three more stations across the region. Rotheram emphasised the importance of a modern, London-style integrated transport network, built around people and local needs, which will improve opportunities for work, leisure, and business. He stressed that this investment would help transform the region and demonstrate the power of locally-led change.

#europeans are also deeply concerned regarding the deals and help of #Trump to #poutine .
#europe is more than ever FIGHTING together with aggressed #Ukraine
Fighting together to save #democracy .
#Putin will not get #Kiev ,
he will not get #Baltic Countries, #moldavia or #Romania
#Russia is rapidly sinking like #titanic
#Trump will not get #greenland
#Trump will not get #canada
#Trump will not get #panama
#China will not get #Taiwan
#dictatorships will be destroyed.
Oleg has a strong social media presence (no doubt inflated by bots). His Facebook group “Tallinners,” written in #Russian, spreads classic anti-#Baltic narratives under the guise of “oppressed Russians in #Estonia.” Then there’s his YouTube channel: pure #Kremlin #propaganda.

The Russian troops launched a large-scale combined attack against Ukraine on the night of 6-7 March.
Over 260 Russian drones and missiles attack Ukraine overnight by Putin's terrorist force. Putin does not want peace.
So glad the U.S. is moving to the right side.

"Yes, and he’s dancing to the Kremlin's tune! Again, this isn’t a Ukraine problem or a Zelenskyy problem. Musk and Trump attack them to distract from their embrace of Russia. But it’s Russia that invaded, Russia that could end the war instantly, and Russia that must be pressured." -Garry Kasparov

Media Question: Should Americans be concerned that Russia says that your administration's foreign policy is “largely in line with their vision”?
Weak Criminal Trump: “Well, I’ll tell you what. I think it takes two to tango."
Water supply of strategic #Baltic island Gotland was sabotaged last night.
Someone broke into the pump controls and destroyed them.
The pumps serve a large part of Gotland (pop 61k) and had it gone unnoticed could have left all island without water.
Putin practice for war. Security services are notified. Water is ok.

Trump, Vance traitors used the entire spectrum of abusive tactics: gaslighting, victim blaming, forced gratitude, manipulation. We all felt through our screens, it was a provocation.
— Blaming the victim for their situation: “You allowed yourself to be in a very bad position” — this is a classic phrase of an abuser, Trump says to Zelenskyy. Blaming the victim for suffering & also blaming them for Russia occupying you and killing your people.
— Pressure and forced “gratitude”: Toxic Vance demands that Zelenskyy say “thank you” — this is a terrible technique, forcing the victim to thank for the help that she desperately needs. Then such toxic people accuse her of ungratefulness if she tries to defend her rights.
— Manipulation of the concept of “peace”: Trump declares that Zelenskyy “is not ready for peace.” But by this he means the capitulation of Ukraine. This is a typical manipulation - replacing the concept of “just peace” with the concept of “surrender.”

Rasmus Jarlov, #Denmark Defence Committee Chair:
"It seems that #russia already thinks that they’re at war with the West... If you think that way, then you’re going to attack again. And they will attack the #Baltic countries, probably as the first target."
"There is no comparison between the economies of Europe and Russia. It’s like 15 times bigger. So if #Europe stands up and helps #Ukraine, there will only be one outcome, and that will be a Ukrainian #victory"

That time lil Marco explained how #USA, #UK and russia promised Ukraine to provide for their defense forever if they gave up the huge stockpile of nuclear weapons left in the country after the Soviet Union collapsed.
The USA, UK, and russia are signatories to this agreement. Honor it or return Ukraine's nuclear weapons; otherwise, your signature and promise mean nothing.
Support Ukraine, defend Ukraine. Ukraine into NATO.
Macron's face while Trump continues lying, over and over, claiming that the US has given Ukraine $350 billion
, even after Macron tried to stop him by explaining that the EU has given far more than the #US, 60% of total aid, and that even the #EU has only given $128 billion.
Notorious liar Donnie continues to lie.
Even his own General calls out the deceitful lies. From General Kellogg: The story of $174 billion sent to Ukraine as aid is a myth.
The U.S. has provided only $65.9 billion in military aid to Ukraine-$22 billion per year.
Over $51.2 billion of this "military aid to Ukraine" was actually spent in the U.S. on its own defense industry.
Russia spends $160 billion per year on the war-8 times more than what we've sent to #Ukraine
#Baltic states began disconnecting from the Moscow-controlled energy grid at 0500 GMT on Saturday, #Lithuania's state-run grid operator LitGrid told AFP.
#Baltic grid divorce will further isolate russian exclave in the EU
In transition away from russia’s power grid, the Baltics will take Kaliningrad out of the mega-grid controlled by the kremlin.
#Sweden seizes #cargoship after another #underseacable hit in suspected #sabotage
Swedish authorities have "seized" a vessel – believed to be the cargo #ship #Vezhen – "suspected of carrying out sabotage" after a cable running between #Sweden and #Latvia in the #BalticSea was damaged on the morning of January 26.
#NATO increasing patrols in the #Baltic as region awaits navy drones. Sweden, NATO's newest member, already deployed three warships and a surveillance airplane.

Shortly after WaPo unilaterally absolved #Russia and #China of any wrongdoing on #Baltic sea:
An undersea fibre optic cable between Latvia and Sweden was damaged on Jan 26, likely as a result of external influence, Latvia said, adding its navy had dispatched a patrol boat to inspect a vessel suspected of involvement.
Two other vessels in the area were also subject to investigation, Latvia’s navy said.
“We have determined that there is most likely external damage and that it is significant,” Latvian Prime Minister Evika Silina told reporters following an extraordinary government meeting.
In today’s Vatnik Soup, I’ll discuss the Kremlin’s toolbox at sea. Recently, we have seen several sabotage operations allegedly conducted by Russia & its allies, especially in the Baltic Sea region. Since 2023, there have been several underwater cables cut by ships’ anchors.

So, according to #MyHeritage, I'm 54% #English. Being #Danish and not entirely unaware of our history, I'm going to go out on a limb here, and say that perhaps it's the other way around, you know with the whole #viking thing and all.
I'm also 19% #scandinavian, almost 9% #Baltic and nearly 1% #MiddleEastern. Closest #DNA match was a 5% match. Makes me feel all worldly and unique. And like I've wasted a bunch of money on a DNA test.
A French patrol aircraft was the target of Russian intimidation on Wednesday over the Baltic Sea, France's Defence Minister said.
The plane was patrolling in international airspace when it was locked onto by the radar of an S400 air defence system, Lecornu said.
