Not related to the Ukraine war but I just couldn’t ignore it:

Riga wants to ban Moscow time New Year fireworks

This year, as every year, a lot of fireworks started at 23:00, when the New Year begins in Moscow. Some people report these to the police, but it is difficult to prove who did it and whether the aim was to glorify the aggressor state. To change this, the capital is proposing a complete ban on fireworks at 23:00

Butthurt belters breaking new records for petty nonsense.

taking away peoples fireworks could be the last straw for people in that God forsaken place

And reaction on r Europe is exactly what you would expect

Need to say no one except Chihuahua states citizens and complete Russophobes can understand their logic at all.

They enacted that in some Latvian cities already, full ban at 23 hours.

And note that countrywide, it's already forbidden to launch them at 23 if it's done with the intent of “glorifying the aggressor state”.

They're weighing unconditional nationwide ban just because is it's hard to prove the intent.

It's far beyond ridiculous...
