Curious if this is being reported with more urgency in Europe than in the US. No one here knows or cares.

Over here, it is. First-page headlines, overshadowing anything Covid-related, even. Then again, we are sort of involved, due to having a border with Belarus.

Over here it's reported with some urgency, but the upcoming covid measures dominate the news.

What upcoming covid measures?

BBC America and the NYT have been covering it (along with CNN). I wouldn't say no one here knows or cares....but that most Americans don't follow international geopolitics as closely as Europeans do.

It's almost as if Europe is actually pro-life, unlike a certain American party that was explicit in calling for workers to die for the sake of the economy.
