    War: New rules for Ukraine, and US won't like them
    • Since March 1, in the territories liberated from the power of the Zelensky regime, we have introduced the following measures to support the population.

      First of all, this is the write-off of all debts on credits and loans in banks and microfinance organizations.

      Both the body of the loan and the interest on it.

      In order to accelerate the socio-economic development of the region and alleviate the financial situation of the population, a decision was made to fully write off communal debts.

      And payments for gas and heating will be reduced several times - to Russian domestic level. The recalculation of other tariffs will be made taking into account the real actual cost at the minimum level of profitability of housing and communal services.

      It also introduces the exemption of the population and legal entities from paying taxes for a special period.

      Agrarians of the liberated territories will have access to the Russian market for their agricultural products, as well as assistance in the sowing campaign.

    UK: Diesel rationing coming
    • The Daily Mail, citing analysts, warns that the government may have to resort to diesel fuel rationing from next month due to market conditions and a ban on imports of Russian oil, including diesel fuel. Russia supplied a third of the diesel imported to the UK before the ban.

      Even with rationing UK will need to stop around 1/3 of all trucks, as no replacements exist on the market.

    War: Reptiles and racist science
    • The moderators of the Reptile Database, a scientific online database of reptiles, have removed references to more than a thousand publications by Russian and Soviet scientists from it. So they protested against the military actions of Russia on the territory of Ukraine. The decision is announced in the site's newsletter. The move has already drawn criticism from herpetologists and reptile enthusiasts around the world as it makes access to scientific knowledge much more difficult. For example, the database now lacks articles by the outstanding Soviet biologist Andrei Grigoryevich Bannikov (1915-1985), professor, author of more than 400 published works.

      Explanation of the most scientific online database (translated from English): “Usually in this newsletter we do not touch politics, but due to the invasion of Ukraine, we feel we should ... We have about 50-100 Russians on the mailing list and we have great respect for them as colleagues. However, Vladimir Putin and the Kremlin have gone too far with their invasion of Ukraine. In protest, we have temporarily removed over 1,000 Russian articles from this edition of the Reptilia database (or rather, replaced them with placeholders), mostly articles by Russian authors and publishers (some collateral damage will be done to people outside of Russia who co-authored these articles, sorry ).

      Nice.

    Germany: Eating less meat is your contribution to the fight against Putin
    • “Eating less meat is also a contribution to the fight against Putin.”

      So told the Germans Cem Ozdemir, Minister of Agriculture of Germany, a representative of the greens and - here's a coincidence - a vegetarian.

      In addition, Ozdemir called for a reduction in food prices. He criticizes proposals to lower gasoline prices and the global focus on fuel rather than a potential food crisis:

      “Not everyone has a car... But everyone needs food. Everyone depends on it."

      However, according to the minister, first of all, a food strike threatens Africa and Asia. There will simply be nothing to eat there.
