Alright, point taken.

⚡German imports of petroleum products from India have increased more than tenfold this year compared to the same period last year.

But imports of petroleum products from Russia to Germany decreased by about the same amount. The Germans abandoned Russian oil and switched to Indian oil. But there is one nuance - India practically does not have its own oil.

Germany still buy from Russia, through India

Language first because it’s easy to integrate then going to somewhere like Germany where you have to start all over again.

Do you know the stress of learn another language?

When I studied in Germany at somewhere between Frankfurt and Hannover, I had an incident where I felt like I was having cardiac arrest when playing football. I quickly went to the hospital with a friend of mine who spoke very little German. We had to use Google translate before the receptionist could even understand us and I was given a date to come for examinations.

On the day of the examination, I was admitted for about three days. Nobody in the hospital spoke English including the doctor that was to examine me. I'm very sure he didn't understand the symptoms I described. I did some examinations but I couldn't even understand the outcome because there was no one to explain it to me and I wasn't allowed to come into the examination room with my phone. In the end, it felt like I wasted my time at the hospital and I just stopped playing football or doing any rigorous activity until I moved to Hamburg and found an hospital with international clients.

Germany was still far better than France. France was the first place I have ever seen black people who don't speak a word in English. The French are arrogant, rude and very snobbish with their language. Everywhere outside of my University in Lyon, no one will attempt to speak English with you. I remember queuing for over 40 minutes with a Ghanaian classmate at Credit Agricole to open a bank account. When we got to the front, the only thing we heard was "Désolé, je ne parle pas Anglais". That's 40 minutes wasted at the bank.

Personally, I won't even live in countries where English is not an official language except countries with high English proficiency like in the Netherlands and Scandinavia. And if I'm to visit others, I will make sure to stay in the Touristy parts where English can be expected to be spoken.

⚡Norwegian student Marie Andersen has been suspended by the Medical University of Warsaw.

That's unfair. She's just one among many voicing her opinion.
