hanse_mina, The German army plans to get 200,000 additional 155mm artillery shells worth about 880 million euros ($960 million) within its framework agreement with the defence firm #Rheinmetall. It had already agreed to a 1.2 billion euro deal for several hundred thousand shells, fuses and charges.
The new shells are meant to refill the army's depots as #Germany helps supply #Ukraine as it fights off the Russian military, which invaded in 2022.
DrGeraintLLannfrancheta, @hanse_mina are they made of gold?
elCelio, @DrGeraintLLannfrancheta @hanse_mina it's only double the cost than before the full scale invasion.

kravietz, Some people say that in #Germany especially the older generation may be actually triggered by this violent threats from #Russia such as the one voiced by Solovyov about “burning German towns”. Is that really true? I have no idea, I’ve been to Germany plenty of time but didn’t really talk politics much… What do you think?
hanse_mina, Two pro-Russian activists in #Germany, whose ties to the #Kremlin were revealed in a Reuters investigation last year, have left Germany and moved to #Russia the couple’s lawyer said in a statement on Monday.
Since Russia’s full-scale invasion of #Ukraine in 2022, Elena #Kolbasnikova and her romantic partner Max #Schlund have been active in Germany, organising pro-Kremlin rallies to urge #Berlin to abandon its military support to #Kyiv.
kalfatermann, On warm weekends, young Russians go out in their cars, with Russian flags on the car, and then drive "car races" while yelling. Residents with small children are particularly excited about the noise. Since there are too few police patrols in the countryside, the Russians are usually already gone by the time a patrol arrives. There are masses of vodka bottles lying on the side of the road.
VikingChieftain, Vodka is Russian water. They can’t function without it. 😉
skykiss, News: Germany Bundeswehr General Christian Freuding indicated that Ukrainian forces able to target Russian aircraft over Russia with their German-supplied weapons. Thank you, Germany.
Waiting for the ever promised massive Russian escalation and nuclear apocalypse resulting from Ukraine now firing western weapons at targets inside Russia.

skykiss, What if a Russian jet is shot down by Western weapons in Russian airspace?
"Russia will have one less plane. One less plane heading to Ukraine to kill Ukrainians,"
Says the head of the Bundestag Defense Committee, Marie-Agnes Strack-Zimmermann.

juergen_hubert, The "Three Maidens" motif shows up in German folklore in many forms. They can be ghosts, cursed princesses, saints, even goddesses - and household spirits.
Naked household spirits, at that.

madeindex, #Germany (& others) should get a .gov #domain for their governmental websites e.g. ".gov.de"
Would help:
- #Authentication as #government both nationally & internationally
- Unification of domains & easier discoverability of #gov institutions (especially for foreigners)
- Ranking on search results
Examples:

michael, @madeindex na. .gov.de makes zero sense in German. Something like .bund.de would make more sense, but would only work for federal government stuff…
