W rosyjskim internecie obrodziło w doniesienia o masowo rozsyłanych w Polsce kartach mobilizacyjnych. Wiadomo dlaczego, tłumaczyć nie trzeba. Najzabawniejsze są jednak dołączone do artykułów i postów zdjęcia owych kart (wygenerowane oczywiście przez AI).

The old economic model that allowed the Transnistrian region to operate under the conditions known in recent decades "no longer exists," considers researcher Kamil Calus, an expert for Moldova at the Centre for Eastern Studies (OSW) in Poland. According to him (translated)

A Romanian shepherd found a Russian drone carrying an explosive device in a field and decided to dismantle it himself. When asked by a journalist, "Aren't you afraid you might die?" he replied with laughter, "Oh, if I die, I die!" Critical thinking is alive in the Carpathians. (translated)

Romania is losing part of its funds from the National Recovery and Resilience Plan. And it may lose just as much again. It is practically certain now. It looks like Romania will lose about 770 million euros from its allocated share of the EU Recovery and Resilience Facility. The reason? The country's authorities failed to adopt the reform of the wage system on time. (translated)

Oh, the Holodomor that affected Soviet Ukraine in the 1930s, we all probably know about it. But have you heard of "Foametea," a similar "phenomenon" that took the lives of about 10% (sic!) of all residents of the Moldavian SSR, which—ironically—was the most fertile country. (translated)

This morning, a commercial ship noticed a drifting small marine drone in the Black Sea (near the Romanian drilling platform Neptun Alpha that is currently being built). The Bucharest Ministry of Defense considered it a threat to critical infrastructure (the platform will be operational from next year). (translated)

The shooting by Romanians from the F-16's onboard guns at what is likely a Russian sea drone was not in my bingo today. But very well. This is exactly the signal that needs to be sent to Moscow. (translated)

The Cernavodă nuclear power plant – the only Romanian nuclear power plant, usually responsible for about 20% of electricity production – has been completely shut down today. This is the first such case in 23 years. The reason is the record low level of the Danube, which makes it impossible (translated)

Romania is one hair's breadth away from a "junk" rating 🇷🇴📊 On the night from Friday to Saturday, Fitch Ratings announced that Romania's rating remains at BBB- with a negative outlook. ⚡️ This is the last tier of the investment category — just above the threshold below which a country's bonds are considered junk.
