At the request of Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, the Danish Parliament canceled a major public holiday to financially support its commitments to NATO and the war in Ukraine. The decision was widely criticized and resulted in public protests against the move.
Former Russian President and Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev, who is currently Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council, told reporters on Tuesday that a ‘quiet partition’ of Ukraine among its neighbors “would be better than Ukraine in NATO or a World War.”
Local authorities announced that thousands of individuals living in residential buildings in the Russian city of Belgor close to the border with Ukraine were evacuated following the discovery of explosive devices according to Tagesschau.de.
