euronews - What changes with the UK labelling Wagner a ‘terrorist’ group?

Wagner, Russia’s infamous mercenary group, is set to be declared a “terrorist” organisation in the UK, as announced last week by the country’s Home Office - meaning that support for the group will become illegal.

Experts are doubtful that the labelling would have a strong impact on Wagner - though they agree on the political and cultural importance of the UK’s decision.

Couldn't happen to a more deserving evil regime.

I do feel sorry for the innocent civilians affected who never wanted this war.

Residents of temporarily occupied Crimea complain that diesel has disappeared from the peninsula. When they manage to find it, the prices are much higher than they used to be.

Many regions in Russia also experience gas shortages.

BREAKING NEWS!

North Korean leader Kim Jong-un arrived in Vladivostok to meet with Putin on Wednesday.

The previous meeting of the two leaders took place in April 2019 in Vladivostok as well.

I hope Kim brought his kneepads to use when begging Putin for food aid in exchange for weapons made by North Korean slave labor!

Small and medium-sized enterprises in the UK are completely unprepared for an impending “avalanche” of new EU regulations and taxes, according to a new business survey.

The British Chambers of Commerce is urging the government to improve communications with British businesses as they grapple with what industry is dubbing “Brexit 2.0” — divergence between EU and UK regulations and taxes that creates additional red tape at the border.

European politicians are nervous about where TikTok’s data goes. The company is spending big on local data centers, but analysts say it’s not enough.

President Biden may soon allow the supply of ATACMS missiles to Ukraine
- Flies on multiple walls...

The advantage of the ATACMS over the British Storm Shadow and French Scalp missiles, which are already in Kyiv's service, is that they can be launched from HIMARS launchers, rather than from outdated Soviet-era Ukrainian fighters.
