Russia-Norway relation hits new low

By 731 0

The relation between Russia and Norway has hit a new low, after the latter alleged that the former attacked the email system of Norwegian parliament with the help of Russian cyber attackers.

Russia has denied the allegation levelled against the country by Norway. The European power has called the allegation provocative.

Meanwhile, Norway has criticized Russia with hard words. The country has termed the attack extremely serious.

Norway and Russia are not in a good relation with each other. Norway technically stands with the European Union. At the same time, Russia is technically out of the union.

The latest development is expected to widen the gap between the European Union and Russia, which is the successor of the erstwhile Soviet Socialist Republics of Russia.

It is important that the issue in the Eastern Europe is handled in a sensible manner. It is pertinent to note that the disturbance in the region can easily trigger a global crisis.

Belarus dictator reaches Russia

By 856 0

Alexander Lukashenko, the dictator of Belarus, has reached Russia, to meet his Russian counterpart and supporter, Vladimir Putin.

He has been accommodated in a resort near Black Sea.

It is clear that the visit has a link to the ongoing protest of pro-democratic activists in Belarus.

Russia earlier said that it was ready to send its force to Belarus to support the Belarus leader.

The only country which supports the Belarus dictator at present is Russia. The European Union does not recognise the leader and recently dismissed the election which was allegedly conducted in an unfair manner.

It is the first time since the emergence of the protest that the two leaders are meeting.

The development is keenly observed by the rest of the European world.

Some observers have already termed the meeting as highly crucial.

Already, the Belarus government’s attitude towards the protest has invited huge criticism. If the country continues this attitude, it will lead the European world to a great danger.

It is not wise to let the protest continue in this manner. It is unfortunate that the Belarus dictator shows no remorse for the unacceptable way his force has handled to the protest.

It is high time to find a solution to the Belarus issue.

By 889 0

In a report published in a renowned International journal, Russian scientists have announced their happiness in the success of their Covid-19 vaccine.

They have shared the details of the preliminary trials of their coronavirus vaccine to back the claim they have made.

The reports shows clearly that there are clear signs of an immune response.

It says that every participant of the preliminary test has developed antibodies to fight the virus.

As a clear indication that the vaccine can clearly dismiss all concerns raised against it, the report explains that the vaccine has no serious side effect.

The European country of Russia, which denounced the warning raised against the vaccine by the WHO and several other countries, already licensed the vaccine for local use, becoming the first country to approve a vaccine to fight against the crisis.

Anyway, the argument that the trial is too small to prove effectiveness and safety still holds water.

To remove the clouds around the effectiveness of the vaccine, the country at first have to address the aforesaid argument in a right manner.

It is hoped that a vaccine which is capable to address this issue in a right way reaches the market as early as possible.

Russia plans to interfere into Belarus politics

By 797 0

Sending a clear message to the westers powers that it is high time to make a serious note of the ongoing politics crisis in Belarus, in a interview given to a state run television channel, Russian President Vladimir Putin has revealed that his country has set up a special police force on the request of Belarus President.

He has said that the force would be sent to Belarus if the things went out of control in the European country.

Belarus has been witnessed a series of violent demonstrations since President Alexander Lukashenko was released to the post.

Protesters allege that the election – through which the President achieved the opportunity to continue in the post – was not conducted in a free and fair manner.

Recently, several human rights groups criticized the Belarus government for the way in which it handled the protest.

Many protesters alleged that they were treated improperly when they were taken into custody.

Even the country’s attitude towards journos was also improper. At least 13 journalists – including a BBC team – were detained in the centre of the capital, Minsk, ahead of a planned opposition protest.

Though the interior ministry said they had been taken to a police station for identity checks, one of those journos who was arrested said it was a clear attempt to interfere with coverage of events.

Navalny poisoned, confirms German doctors

By 816 0

In contrary to the view made by Russian doctors on the reason why Russian President Vladimir Putin’s critic Alexei Navalny fell unconscious during an domestic flight trip, German doctors – who are treating him since he was brought to the country from Russia at the request of his supporters across the world – have detected the presence of poisonous substance in his body, paving way for a new discussion around how Russia handle its critics.

Mr. Navalny has not yet recovered from the injury. He is still in coma. The doctors are yet to launch a detailed report on his present heath condition.

The critic is a most powerful opponent of Mr. Putin. It is not the first time he has been subjected to this kind of attack. Several times in the past too, he has suffered this kind of attack.

Anyway, the attack has belittled Russia. It has inflicted an irreparable damage over the image of Russia.

It is not a surprise that Russia has gone this far to attack its rival. The country is known for its intolerance towards its critics.

It is unfortunate that a country like Russia has failed to protect the values it has uphold for generations.

It indicates that Russia has fallen completely under the clutches of autocracy.

By 878 0

Russian doctors have said that Alexie Navalny, the prime critic of Russian supremo Vladimir Putin – who was hospitalised recently after he had fell ill during a flight to Moscow – was too ill to be taken outside the country for better treatment, paving a space for his supporters to cry foul in the present decision of the doctors to keep him insider the country – which is under the absolute control of the autocrat against whom the victim has stood all through his political career.

A statement made by a doctor who is in the team which treats the victim that there is no sign of a poison attack proves that there are valid reasons to pay attention to the allegations made against the country by the supporters of the injured critic.

As per the latest bulletin released by the team of doctors which treats the injured, Mr. Navalny has not recovered from the state of coma.

It is high time to launch an international campaign to make sure that the injured receives proper treatment in his country.

The longer it takes to get him out of the country, the shorter it becomes the chance of finding the exact reason why he fell ill.
