Has been pretty predictable. There was this joint statement in which they say the russian people were denied any real choice in the vote that took place over the past three days. We heard from the veteran spanish diplomat saying that the Russian Election was characterised by repression and intimidation. One thing the eu has not done which the widow of Alexei Navalny wanted to happen, she wanted european leaders to come out and say President Putin does not have any legitimacy and he wanted brussels not to recognise this victory. That hasnt happened today but as you have been saying they are looking at more sanctions and we understand that the sanctions being talked about today and potentially agreed would affect people within the Prison System in russia, specifically those who work at the penal colony in the arctic where Alexei Navalny was being held and where he died last month. There have been talks and where he died last month. There have been talks about and where he died last month

Duped by dishonest recruitment agents into going to oman. Georgina was promised a lucrativejob in dubai, but instead she found herself in the omani capital, muscat. Translation i was not allowed to rest. I was waking up at 3am and going to bed at 1am. The most difficult thing that made me desperate to escape was the boss forcing me to have sex with him. It was so painful because i had no way to say no. He threatened me and said if i shouted he would shoot me. I got badly injured because it wasnt only him. He would bring friends and they would pay him after. In oman alone, there are an estimated 300,000 Domestic Workers, most of them from africa or asia. Ekaterina runs an ngo which supports Migrant Workers in the gulf. We identify them as victims of trafficking or forced labour or other forms of exploitation.

She had not appointed that January 6th Committee. So true.

As trumps attackers of the capitol were trying to find her, she was rushed from the building, along with other democrat
