The New Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty will expire this week. If it does, it will mark the first time since the 1970s that there will be no legally binding limits on US and Russian strategic nuclear forces.
The US and Russia’s nuclear weapons treaty is set to expire. Here’s what’s at stake
Letting New START expire would signal that the world’s largest nuclear powers are abandoning restraint.

A Liberia flagged freighter turned up in Denmark to pick up a new anchor.
The weeks before she was driving back and forth over an area of Baltic Sea particularly dense with comm cables and pipelines with a pit stop in Ust-Luga, Russia.
Hope someone, eg a cop, found out where the old one is.

Slovakia is a worrying in lesson in what happens when a reformist government and pro-democratic president who were all elected on a wave of discontent with a corruption-friendly government fail to deliver, and the frustrated voters turn back to the bad guy. Sounds familiar? 2/
