Hello Ward,

It has been announced on the news here that following the political unrest in Belarus, the leadership of that country has taken the internet down. I do not know the status of other ways of communications

That may be more rumor than fact. Internet service has
been slow for at least the past few hours, probably much
longer, in many areas of the world - including the USA.

I do realize that some folks view Vladimir Putin as evil,
and being capable of destroying everything under the sun.
But really. Does anybody believe the president of Belarus
is his puppet? Nobody can be that gullible.

If someone entertains links into R45 and doesn't get through, this may be the reason why.

Oh, come now. Trump is Putin's poodle. Everybody knows that.

I tried to connect to some of the nodes from Germany and it seems to work just fine.
