In 1990, a @usaf B-52 was five miles out from USS Ranger and asked permission to do a fly-by. The carrier granted the request, but said they had no visual on the plane. The B-52 told them to look down, and then flew past the Ranger below the flight deck level. #SeaStorySaturday

Protests in Nukus, Karakalpakstan continue. Uzbek President Mirziyoyev already suggested not to amend the articles 70, 71, 72, 74, 75 of the constitution on the sovereignty and status of Karakalpakstan. But his forces are suppressing the protests. Emergency declared till August 2
International community should pressure Uzbek President Mirziyoyev to deescalate the situation. Karakalpak minority sees the entire "constitutional reform" project, especially regarding the Chapter XVII as highly provocative. That's a video from the yesterday's protests in Nukus
Keep in mind that Uzbekistan is:
1) Diverse
2) Young
3) Poor
Average age in Uzbekistan (29) is not much higher than in Syria (25). GDP per capita not much higher than in Cambodia. Most of territory is desert so almost everyone lives in a few overcrowded oases and river valleys

How much of this do you think is going on with politicians in Europe and the USA?
Their children often seem to be consultants with their own companies. Or running NGOs. Or sitting on the Board of Directors. Weird.
