🇩🇪 German authorities will raise air ticket prices due to a budget deficit of 17 billion euros 🤦🏻♂️
The Cabinet of Ministers has already approved the new resolution, and the final decision should be made in the coming months. Prices will be increased due to taxes.
Passengers on flights up to 2,500 km will pay a tax of 15.53 euros (about 1,500 rubles) on each ticket, and those flying over 6,000 km will have to pay 70.83 euros (more than 6,800 rubles!).
Taxes will not be levied on passengers flying abroad for military or medical purposes, as well as on children under two years of age. But preschoolers aged 3-6 years must pay.
❗️It would seem, what do sanctions and the blown up Nord Stream have to do with it?..? 🤪

🇩🇪 In Dresden, on the oldest square, the Altmarkt, the innoscription that was painted in memory of the victims of the city's bombing by the US and British Air Forces in February 1945 has disappeared, writes Bild.
The absence of the innoscription was noticed by the townspeople. The newspaper asked city authorities for clarification, but they said that “the redesign of the memorial to the victims of the air raids of February 13 and 14, 1945 is proceeding as planned.” They promised to give more detailed comments later.
In the 20th century, it was believed that between 100 and 300 thousand city residents were killed as a result of the bombing. Now in Germany they cite a much lower figure: 25 thousand.
The documented number of completely destroyed residential buildings exceeded 78 thousand.
The Americans explained the ruthlessness of the bombing by the fact that the city was an important center of the military industry. In Germany, many consider the bombing of Dresden a war crime.

""I have concluded that the decision to issue the Proclamation does not bear the hallmarks of reasonableness — justification, transparency and intelligibility — and was not justified in relation to the relevant factual and legal constraints that were required to be taken into consideration," wrote Justice Richard G.

Gov. Greg Abbot’s response to the Federal government’s failure to uphold the constitution.
He cites the States right to self defense; hopefully other Governors will follow suit.
Although many rightfully see this as too little too late, it’s better than NOTHING.

🇺🇸 🇸🇾🏴 America Is Planning to Withdraw From Syria—and Create a Disaster
⬛️ The Islamic State has regained its momentum, and the Biden administration might inadvertently give it another boost.
🔶️ It should be cause for significant concern, however, that this could involve a full withdrawal of U.S. troops from Syria. While no definitive decision has been made to leave, four sources within the Defense and State departments said the White House is no longer invested in sustaining a mission that it perceives as unnecessary. Active internal discussions are now underway to determine how and when a withdrawal may take place.
🔶️ Notwithstanding the catastrophic effect that a withdrawal would have on U.S. and allied influence over the unresolved and acutely volatile crisis in Syria, it would also be a gift to the Islamic State. While significantly weakened, the group is in fact primed for a resurgence in Syria, if given the space to do so.
