Tens of thousands accused Prague of serving Brussels and Washington instead of Czechia

"A crowd numbered in the tens of thousands gathered in Prague on Wednesday to protest
against the Czech government, NATO, and the European Union. Demonstrators called for Czechia’s neutrality and protested Prime Minister Petr Fiala’s policy of sanctioning Russia, which has driven up energy prices.

Meeting on St. Wenceslas’ Day – a public holiday celebrating Czech statehood – the crowd took to Prague’s main square, named after the medieval saint, and chanted slogans against the EU, NATO and Fiala’s cabinet. Prague police would not give a specific figure of the estimated crowd size, calling it only “tens of thousands.” RT

EU Chief Calls Nord Stream Attack "Sabotage", Warns Of "Strongest Possible Response"

"European Commission chief Ursula von der Leyen confirmed the Nord Stream pipeline

system leaks were caused by "sabotage," and warned of the "strongest possible response" should active European energy infrastructure be attacked. '

Earlier, Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen described the three separate leaks on NS1 and NS2 as "deliberate acts," adding: "It’s hard to imagine that it’s accidental."

On Monday, Swedish seismologists reported the detection of underwater explosions - shortly after which large patches of roiling gas could be seen on the surface in the same area.

And while Poland's former Defense Minister appeared to thank the United States for the attack (a perfectly good explanation for which we're sure is will be offered), Poland's PM, Mateusz Morawiecki, laid the blame on Russia for targeting the pipelines - suggesting that the attack was an attempt to escalate the Ukraine conflict."
