Aber es gibt ein bisschen Turbinennachrichten.

ZitatAlles anzeigenOTTAWA – Ukrainian Canadians are calling on the Liberal government to stand firm and ensure a critical gas turbine doesn’t return to Russia where it would fund Vladimir Putin’s war.

In a letter to Global Affairs Minister Melanie Joly obtained by the National Post, Ukrainian Canadian Congress (UCC) president Alexandra Chyczij said Canada should not relent on the sanctions. She said Russia has earned roughly $100 billion from energy exports since the war began and much of that has been paid by Europe.

She said they must hold firm on these sanctions.
“Should the Government of Canada agree to waive the sanctions that are preventing delivery of this turbine, the German state will be in a position to provide even more funds to Russia to continue financing Russia’s genocide against Ukraine,” she wrote to Joly earlier this month. “The Ukrainian Canadian Congress calls upon the Government of Canada to abide by the sanctions which have been imposed.”

Orest Zakydalsky, a senior policy adviser with the UCC, said they understand the economic pain Germany faces, but doesn’t compare to what Ukrainians are facing.
“I can appreciate that in Europe due to their own policies, they became very dependent on Russian energy. Now those chickens are coming home to roost but unfortunately, the ones suffering the most from that is Ukraine,” he said.
Mit anderen Worten unsere guten Freunde, die Ukrainisch-Amerikaner in diesem Fall Kanadier, sind der Ansicht, die Gasturbine sollte mal schön in Kanada bleiben. Keine Ahnung, welche Rolle das bei den Verzögerungen spielt, aber zur Erinnerung die eine Hälfte der Familie der stellvertretenden Premierministerin Chrystia Freeland hat einen ukrainischen Fluchthintergrund inklusive NS-Kollaborationsgeschichte.
