UK to expel Russian defence attache as sanctions escalate

This is getting very serious and dangerous. At the same time the far right AfD in Germany is growing in power and status with the passing one every day.

German intelligence claims the AfD has links with Moscow. There have also been physical attacks on politicians in the last few days, including on the finance senator in Berlin.

Today Moscow holds its celebratory parade in memory of the victory of the Great Patriotic War. In World War II the Soviet Union lost approximately 27 million.
