No allied army had any order to liberate a camp. In many cases, they stumbled on them and it is the case of the Russian army at Auwscwitz.
As for the term "liberation", let´s not forget that most of the prisoners, almost seventy thousand prisoners (all those who were not already almost dead) were forced on the roads to go to concentration camps in Austria. Their liberation was achieved by US army forces.
Oh and the Russians lever liberated anything or anyone.

Where the money went? Ask the Pentagon. Everything that gets donated they order a replacement for (Europeans should have taken notes long ago).Zelensky Claims Ukraine Received Less Than Half of U.S. Aid

Ask the Pentagon, and also Ukraine.
It is not as if it was deemed the most corrupt country in the world prior to Russia's invasion...

What is your claim based on? Ukraine, despite being very corrupt, has never been any close to being the most corrupt country in the world.
You conveniently forget that RuZZia has always been FAR more corrupt.

Poland's President, Andrzej Duda, says the EU may try to cancel their presidential elections, like they did in Romania, if they dislike the result
"What if a situation like in Romania happens in May? (...)
Can only those approved by Brussels win elections?"

So... turns out that, in addition to Thierry Breton admitting the EU was also involved, about half a billion dollars from USAID went to an NGO who interfered in Romanian elections to cancel Georgescu.
Tell me again how Russia interfered with that election again?

Baltic countries finally disconnected from Russian power grid.
At the same time Kaliningrad is disconnected and will now have to produce its own power.

Baltic states leave Russian power grid in closer EU integration
Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania disconnected from Russia’s network on Saturday, ending energy dependency and aiding security
The three Baltic states have disconnected their electricity systems from Russia’s power grid as part of a plan designed to integrate the countries more closely with the EU and boost security.
Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania disconnected from the IPS/UPS joint network on Saturday. Subject to last-minute tests, they will synchronise with the EU’s grid at 12.00 GMT on Sunday after operating on their own in the interim.
The European Commission president, Ursula von der Leyen, will speak at a ceremony on Sunday to mark the switch to the EU system.
“We’ve reached the goal we strived for, for so long. We are now in control,” the Lithuanian energy minister, Žygimantas Vaičiūnas, told a press conference.
Immediately after disconnecting, Latvian workers used a crane to reach the high-voltage wires in Vilaka, close to the Russian border, and cut them. They handed out chopped wire as keepsakes to cheering onlookers.
“We will never use it again. We are moving on,” Latvia’s energy minister, Kaspars Melnis, said.
Plans for the Baltics to decouple from the grid of their former Soviet imperial overlord, which have been debated for decades, gained momentum after Moscow’s annexation of Crimea in 2014.
The grid was the only remaining link to Russia for the three countries, which re-emerged as independent nations in the early 1990s after the fall of the Soviet Union, and joined the EU and Nato in 2004.
The three staunch supporters of Kyiv stopped buying power from Russia after Moscow’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, but have relied on the Russian grid to control frequencies and stabilise networks to avoid outages.
“By ending the energy dependence of the Baltic states on Russia, we are leaving the aggressor without the option of using energy as a weapon against us,” the Estonia’s foreign minister, Margus Tsahkna, said.
An army truck was seen at the Rezekne power substation near the Latvia-Russia border, and officers with guns were patrolling the vicinity and in the nearby town, indicative of Baltic worries of attempted sabotage to the switch.
The Baltic Sea region is on high alert after power cable, telecom links and gas pipeline outages to Sweden or Finland. All were believed to have been caused by ships dragging anchors along the seabed after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Russia has denied any involvement.
“The system is stable, the process is happening smoothly, no one is noticing that something changed,” Melnis said.
Maintaining a constant power supply requires a stable grid frequency, which can more easily be obtained over time in a large synchronised area such as Russia or continental Europe, compared with what the Baltics can do on their own, analysts say.
Lithuania’s energy ministry said it has drawn up contingency plans whereby some heavy energy users, such as factories, could be temporarily disconnected from the grid in the event of power shortages to maintain essential supplies.
For Russia, the decoupling means its Kaliningrad exclave, located between Lithuania, Poland and the Baltic Sea, is cut off from Russia’s main grid, leaving it to maintain its power system alone.
The Baltic countries have spent nearly €1.6bn since 2018 to upgrade grids to prepare for the switch, while Russia has spent 100bn roubles ($1bn), including on the building of several gas-fired power plants in Kaliningrad.

At least they didn't invite any SS this time.
Nor any AZOV/Galicia/Dirlewanger flags flown.
These guys do get a lot of love around these parts.

They should stop talking and start doing.
Five ideas for reshaping Europe's future defence sector - analysis
EU Commissioner for Defence and Space Andrius Kubilius envisions a ‘Big Bang’ approach for the European defence industry – but what does that mean?
The European Union is preparing for a worst-case military scenario—a Russian attack on one of its 27 member states.
EU Commissioner for Defence and Space Andrius Kubilius is set to present a "White Paper on European Defence" by 19 March, outlining measures to prepare the EU for both immediate military contingencies and long-term security challenges on the global stage.
However, an uptick of rhetoric and action, the bloc remains far from achieving what Kubilius has described as a "big bang" approach to defence.
"Business as usual in defence is simply not possible anymore," Daniel Fiott, a professor at the Centre for Security, Diplomacy and Strategy (VUB) in Brussels, told Euronews.
Fiott stressed that the white paper must clearly define how Europe should respond if the US drastically reduces its support for Ukraine and European security, along with the funding needed across key defence capability areas.
Industry Output Plan: What does Europe need, in what quantity, and by when?
Competitiveness is a critical challenge for the European defence industry, MEP Riho Terras (Estonia/EPP), vice-chairman of the Parliament's security and defence committee, told Euronews.
"It is too fragmented, internal market rules do not apply to the defence industry, and the banking sector does not lend money to defence industries," he argued, emphasizing that the Commission must address these shortcomings within its mandate.
To tackle this, industry leaders are calling for an industrial output plan that translates member states' capability needs into concrete defence industry targets, specifying quantities and timelines.
Industry representatives urge governments to indicate which capabilities require scaling, by how much, and by when, both in peacetime and wartime.
In a non-paper, they stress the need for long-term procurement and investment commitments, enabling economies of scale and attracting private sector funding.

Everybody and their dog on this forum knows that you never miss a chance to post some pro-RuZZian BS, but how are you going to prove the Polish government has ever invited anybody who displayed these flags?
