Russia and Ukraine Exchange Soldiers' Remains – Logistics Better Than Liepāja Tram Schedule
While Karosta can wait months for new ticket machines, exchanges in the war zone happen faster than pizza delivery.
Russia and Ukraine this week conducted another exchange of fallen soldiers' remains – Ukraine received 1000, while Russia got 35. Mathematically, this seems like our market exchange with Riga: they give one benefit, we give back ten.
Investigators will now carry out identification of the deceased, which, admittedly, is a more precise process than trying to understand why Liepāja's tram sometimes runs in the opposite direction. "At least there they know what they're looking for," commented local pensioner Valdis, who has been waiting for tram #3 to Karosta for the third week now.
Kremlin representative Medinsky reported this exchange with the same emotional level as our city council deputy talks about road repairs. Meanwhile, in Liepāja we're still fussing about whether the beach needs more trash cans.
It must be admitted that both countries' logistics in this matter are surprisingly efficient. We could learn something – maybe then our postal deliveries from Riga wouldn't take longer than Magellan's expedition.
