www.pravda.com.ua Hungarian PM’s office demands recognition of all of Ukraine’s Zakarpattia as “traditionally Hungarian”

Among the 11 demands of Hungary regarding the protection of the rights of national minorities, a key stumbling block is the designation of areas in Ukraine with a special level of guarantees for the rights of Hungarians. In particular, this refers to the country’s westernmost Zakarpattia Oblast, whe...

US Olympic and other teams will bring their own AC units to Paris, undercutting environmental plan
  • You do realize that renewables still have an emissions footprint from manufacturing, transportation, deployment, transmission, and recycling/retirement... Right? That they're limited lifespan disposable goods? So are batteries.

    Moreover, each new solar panel has an opportunity cost in that it could be used to supplant fossil fuels in an area of the world that would actually benefit from it, rather than helping a facility THAT ALREADY HAS A TEMPERATURE CONTROL SYSTEM cool things down further because Americans are too spoiled with their extreme electricity consumption patterns to do anything else.

  • Russian space control center in Crimea struck by Ukrainian ATACMS missiles
  • Funny that you should bring that up, because Eastern Ukraine is ethnically and linguistically Russian-dominated, just like Crimea. Self-determination for me but not for thee?

    Why does Western Ukraine get to dictate the sovereignty of Eastern Ukraine?

  • Iran to designate Canadian army as a terrorist entity
  • Canada's military was responsible for the subjugation and genocide of many First Nations group, including against the Metis, Cree, and Assiniboine peoples, as well as deployed abroad to subjugate the Boers in South Africa in support of the British Empire. The Canadian Army was also deployed in Afghanistan, where Western powers fought for two decades to replace the Taliban with the Taliban and caused untold amounts of suffering in the process.

    Now do Iran.

  • US Olympic and other teams will bring their own AC units to Paris, undercutting environmental plan
  • Where do you think the energy for electric heating and cooling comes from? Thin air?

    AC still makes up like 7% of global GHG emissions. That's more than aviation and computing... Combined. That's on par with the entire iron and steel industries. In fact, it's almost on par with the GHG emissions of all agriculture output and is expected to exceed the entire agriculture industry's GHG emissions before 2050.

  • Russian space control center in Crimea struck by Ukrainian ATACMS missiles
  • dedicate more forces to protecting their nuclear capabilities

    Are you hearing yourself? The nuclear capability is the protection. There's a reason that during the Cold War nobody was stupid enough to attack someone else's nuclear early warning radar. The entire principle of mutually assured destruction relies on both parties knowing what the other is NOT doing so they know that they don't need to respond.

    Russia says U.S. is responsible for deadly Ukrainian attack on Crimea
  • Taiwan doesn't want to be Chinese, so it isn't. Crimea wants to be Russian, so it shouldn't be?

    I get the sense that the only thing people like you want is to separate countries on some vague idea of ethnic lines and Balkanize countries because racism has been such a big part of your identity.
