21 December 2023: Four German News Stories

1.  First AfD Party Mayor elected into office in Germany.  First act?  No free parking for public E-car charger situations.  He simply notes that such vehicles end up taking two to three hours of parking in areas that would normally have a hourly fee attached.  

2.  Hurricane weather along the northern coast of Germany today....expected to be a fair amount of flooding.

3.  Rather odd development....Ukrainian Defense Minister says in 2024....Ukrainian men in Germany who are of fighting age...must sign up and return to the Ukraine as 'conscripts.  Countries that fail to enforce this effort....sanctions would occur.  I seriously doubt that the German government will do anything.  If anything comes out of this....a number of these men would simply ask for asylum and work toward German citizenship.  How many are we talking about?  Unknown....there are around 1-million Ukrainians in Germany, but based off journalist's chatter....I'd say 90-percent are women or kids.  

4.  Some EU chatter going on about wolf-protection.  Oddly enough....they are suggesting less protection, and you might see enough regulation to allow wolf  hunts to occur.
