Dutch caretaker government scraps partial lockdown as infections mount

Dutch caretaker government scraps partial lockdown as infections mount
Following its European counterparts, the Dutch government has implemented the first stage of its easing of social-distancing restrictions, starting on April 28. The government took this reckless measure even though it is still a caretaker government, the Dutch bourgeois parties having failed to form a government since elections in March.
“We are of course glad that this is possible again, because society yearns for more freedom,” said Prime Minister Mark Rutte.

Russian Media Outlet Vz.ru: 'The Azerbaijani Army Is Being Purged Of The Officers And Generals Who Started Their Career In The Soviet Union... Those Who Have Completed... Training In Turkey Are Placed In Key Positions – Turkish Advisers Are Placed Above Them'

The Turkish Generals In The Azerbaijani Army
"Analysts are assessing the results of the most important military conflict of recent times, the Azeri victory in Nagorno-Karabakh. They are paying special attention to the role of the Turkish military, including their operation of drones. Who were the Turkish generals that led the successful offensive of the Azerbaijani army and what the Azerbaijani military are dissatisfied with – the VZGLYAD newspaper investigates.
"Several days ago, in the midst of Azerbaijan's offensive operation in Karabakh, a number of Russian and Azerbaijani publications reported the dismissal and even arrest of the First Deputy Minister of Defense of Azerbaijan and Chief of General Staff Colonel General Najmeddin Sadigov. He was charged with treason and cooperation with the Russian military intelligence service. It was additionally stated that the general opposed 'the Turkish dominance in the leadership of the Azerbaijani armed forces.'
