Thanks for your comment! Yeah I write "news on Europe", although this conflict also has a real potential of starting the third World War, in which case it would affect us all, no matter where we live. Sigh.

Ah, yes - one of the reasons why I feel like not commenting that much is that there are so many themes here, and most of them I've already written in a few blog posts. Like, here in Finland we have a Russian-speaking minority, and our tax-payer funded national broadcasting company YLE serves some news in Russian. Well, in the initial heat of the crisis YLE got a lot of angry feedback, apparently people being angry at them having content in Russian. Huh. One of those totally counter-productive emotional reactions, which would just make the crisis worse not helping to solve it. Russian state media is all just strictly controlled propaganda, so for Russian-speaking people living in Finland our national broadcasting company is the only source of more reliable, more objective news in their own language. It wouldn't make any sense to cut that, leaving the Russian minority to follow only the news by Kremlin...
