"Mit uns kann man reden - aber die Russen schicken Soldaten." Dieses Selbstbild des Westens ist falsch und gefährlich. In Wahrheit steuern wir gegenüber Russland seit 1989 einen Kurs der Konfrontation - wo wird das enden? -

Fascism, Russia, and Ukraine | Timothy Snyder
Ukraine is not a theater for the historical propaganda of others or a puzzle from which pieces can be removed. It is a major European country whose citizens have important cultural and economic ties with both the European Union and Russia. To set its own course, Ukraine needs normal public debate, the restoration of parliamentary democracy, and workable relations with all of its neighbors. -

Island: Der Bürgermeister von Reykjavik tritt nicht mehr an
Ein Komiker als Stadtdirektor, kann das gutgehen? Jon Gnarr versprach im Wahlkampf Eisbären für den Zoo, kostenlose Handtücher in Schwimmbädern - und Kritik am politischen System. Nach drei Jahren als Erster Bürger von Reykjavik zieht er Bilanz.“Interview in SPIEGEL ONLINE. The bullies rule the world. Nobody cares if you are an anarchist. It’s just a shelf they put you in. They don’t care about stand up. They don’t care about art. If it’s any good they’ll buy it as an investment. The bullies are always on top. Everything is organized. You can mock them from your own Saturday night prime time talk show. But it does not change anything really. You don’t scare them. They own the station. You work for them. You are no threat and they laugh like everybody else. And violence is the most useless form of protest. They are experts in dealing with that. Direct comedy on the other hand, is something they are not prepared for. If you really want to make a change start a nonsense political party, get elected and into some office. But that’s the easy part. The tricky part is to stay put and keep on smiling no matter what. They will come at you with all they got; their media will ridicule you and attack you. They will attack you verbally or even physically. They will call you names. They will scare you. They will finance and organize lobbyist groups to harass you. They will question you constantly, wear you down and brake you. “Who’s laughing now Mr. funny man?!” They want to make an example of you so that no nobody like you will ever challenge them again. Because they’r bullies and bullies do what bullies do best. Bully. And they make you so confused that finally you forget that that’s the exact reason why you ran in the first place :)”

Newly Opened €100m Overpass May Need to Be Rebuilt for Rail Baltic
The Ministry of Economy Affairs said that the Ülemiste intersection, which opened to fanfare just before the local elections, might have to be rebuilt to accommodate the Rail Baltic track.From Damiano, a fellow urbanist: “The EKA research team, now SPIN Unit , was involved in the Helsinki-Tallinn transportation and planning scenario between 2011 and 2012. Our role consisted of studying all the major infrastructure projects planned in Tallinn and Helsinki by putting them in relation with each other and learn which ones had to be planned together. To do that we have created a database containing also policies, actors and researches to help planners and decision makers, understanding when some projects were overlaying (here a demo of the Decision Support System http://dev.tamme.lv/ ). During almost 2 years of research we spoke at the tranp. and plan. focus group meetings, we presented our work at all the conferences organised by EUREGIO, we have participated to over join 10 meetings - all at the presence of city officials from both cities - eventually we have also organised a discussion with plan. and transp. officials from Tallinn and Helsinki to let them talk to each other about infr. projects using the decision support system. After the meeting we produced a report to agree on these project which eventually was included as official document for the Helsinki metropolitan planning vision. One of our main concerns was that the Ulemiste junction, the tram from the harbour to the airport, the freight terminal the Rail Baltica they all had to be considered and planned as the same thing. Not only that, but it was clear that these projects were fundamental for the development of the finnish industry as well and so these projects had to be envisioned together with the city of Helsinki. The research project started when it was already too late to stop the construction of the junction, but please, don’t say “we didn’t know it”. I can’t believe that you came deaf to all our meetings and that nobody have been readying our reports. Or maybe that’s exactly the case.”

Followup to my open letter to the minister of culture
Yesterday, I wrote an open letter to the incoming Estonian culture minister, and against my better judgement I shared it on Facebook. What resulted was not surprising - a plethora of ‘likes’ from friends, and it was shared by about ten other people to wider audiences. What disappointed me was that I wrote the piece not to actually communicate with the culture minister (I&rs...an here’s John’s own follow up.

An open letter to the new Culture Minister in Estonia
Dear Urve Tiidus, Congratulations on your appointment as the new Culture Minister of Estonia. I don't know anything about you, and I don't even know what specifically you can do as Culture Minister, but I welcome any potential change in culture policy in Estonia and wish you the best. My hope in writing this letter is to encourage some discussion about the various forms of culture in Estonia, and to seek alternatives that will open up connections between talent...read this, Tallinn
