Misleading title. From the article itself:
The president was reportedly responding to a proposal by far-right leader Jordan Bardella, who was suggesting France switch to a single seven-year presidential term.
It might have been simpler to just display a normal calendar. That's about the same.
You remember these calendars with a famous quote every day? You could do it with nuclear threats.
A Ukrainian colonel revealed authorities were on the brink of evacuating the capital last December due to airstrikes
While the second quote is more telling, the first one is misleading. The only reason Ukraine has a shot at taking Crimea back is because Russia invaded.
There was just no hope for Ukraine to retake it by force, and Russia under putin would never give it back voluntarily. Even not under Putin, the opinion would be such that this would be a difficult politically speaking. That's what Navalny was commenting on with this quote.
Both of which are irrelevant to france, which sources their uranium primarily from russia and their former colonies.
You should check the sources you are using more carefully.
In the latest data (2020), France was getting its Uranium mostly from Niger (34,7 %), Kazakhstan (28,9 %), Uzbekistan (26,4 %) and Australia (9,9 %). Russia was never really a provider apart from a small recycling operation involving 10tons last year (out a of yearly consumption of 7000 tons). Australia is actually increasing since 2020 then with Uzbekistan decreasing. And 3 out of these 4 countries have not been French colonies.
Yup, electric installation in Western Europe is so bad that nobody would attempt this. There is a good chance (a few %) that the plug is not linked to a breaker, or that the breaker has seen multiple world wars. That is if you have circuit breakers altogether.
If you are doing ordered by new, yes definitely it would not work. But these kind of megathreads work best when people order by active, which is the case when there is a very high post rate. Lemmy is not totally there yet but will probably be there very soon at the current growth rate.
Has someone got a reasoning for this? It could make prisoner exchange more difficult in the future and while I am sure these guys really wanted to come back, having another few months in Turkiye was not necessarily a bad fate.
Is it that prisoner exchange are now much more in favour of Ukraine that they can do this?
