Ukraine war thread

And the plot thickens. This is seriously shady as fuck.

“Frustrated EU countries are ramping up pressure on Belgium to release €140 billion of frozen Russian reserves held in Brussels by accusing Bart De Wever's government of failing to fully disclose what it does with the tax income from those immobilized assets”

Five diplomats from different European countries, however, complained that Belgium appears to have a secondary agenda in holding onto Russia's money thanks to the tax generated.

They noted Belgium was breaking an international commitment made last year to disclose what it was doing with tax from the frozen reserves, which is supposed to go to Ukraine.

The diplomats said the money was still being folded into the Belgian national budget, making it impossible to determine whether Belgium is fully living up to its commitments to Kyiv.

“I need help, please. Drone attack.” Two oil tankers from Russia’s shadow fleet are now burning in the Black Sea

The first to be hit was the Kairos. It’s possible that the vessel, now burning off the Turkish coast, may sink.

News has also emerged of a second incident: the tanker Virat likewise reported a strike and a fire, pleading for help (video ).

Turkey’s General Directorate of Maritime Affairs confirms that both vessels were subjected to external impact.

According to some reports, the Kairos hit a mine, while the Virat was struck by kamikaze boats.
