The crisis cabinet of the Austrian government met yesterday morning because of the events in Russia. Represented were Chancellor Karl Nehammer (VP), Vice-Chancellor Werner Kogler (Greens), Defense Minister Klaudia Tanner (VP), Interior Minister Gerhard Karner (VP), Foreign Minister Alexander Schallenberg (VP) and representatives of the three Austrian intelligence services Directorate State Protection and Intelligence Service (DSN), Defense Office and Army Intelligence Office (HNA).
The meeting was convened on Saturday evening, at a time when the Russian mercenary leader Yevgeny Prigozhin had not yet ordered his troops back.
The current situation creates uncertainty, explained Chancellor Nehammer following the meeting. The war once morest Ukraine is clearly leaving its mark on Russia. “The situation within Russia was and to a certain extent remains worrying,” said Vice Chancellor Kogler.
The question of whether hypothetical extreme scenarios of a Russian civil war and the collapse of the Russian Federation had also been discussed in the Crisis Cabinet on Sunday was answered evasively by Nehammer. If a superpower were destabilized, there would be consequences, he said. And Kogler added: “Despite all the sympathy for the victims of the war of aggression (Ukraine, note), it’s not good news when things are going haywire in Russia.” Nehammer and Federal President Alexander Van der Bellen are also in constant contact because of developments in Russia.
In view of the events, the Austrian Foreign Ministry issued a partial travel warning for Russia on Saturday. The Foreign Ministry warns once morest all travel to the Russian administrative districts of Belgorod, Kursk, Bryansk, Voronezh, Rostov and Krasnodar bordering Ukraine. In particular, the city of Rostow and the surrounding area should be avoided. In Moscow and other cities in Russia, too, “increased attention should be shown”.

Canadian filmmaker James Cameron, director of the movie “Titanic” said that the expedition of the submarine “Titan”, in which five people died, was “too experimental” and remarked that “the warnings were ignored”.
Cameron, who is also an engineer, marine explorer and member of the diving community, referred to the outcome of the submersible, which -according to its owner- the five crew members who were on board died.
In addition, the Coast Guard reported that “debris” had been found near the Titanic that turned out to be five pieces of the OceanGate Titan submarine, meaning the ship most likely suffered a “catastrophic implosion” and caused death. of the passengers.

Cameron traveled in 2012 via a deep-immersing submersible to reach Challenger Deep, at the southern end of the Mariana Trench, the deepest point in the ocean.
In dialogue with >, he stated that he had been warning the company of the risks for some time: “Several of the leading members of the deep-dive engineering community even wrote letters to the company saying that what they were doing was too experimental.”

In 2018, when the project was underway, the Marine Technology Society’s manned underwater vehicle committee had expressed its “unanimous concern” to OceanGate CEO and Titan pilot Stockton Rush.
In addition, he confessed that the death of one of the members of the submarine, Paul-Henri Nargeolet, completely shocked him because he had known him for 25 years.

“That he died in such a tragic way is almost impossible for me to process,” said the director.
He also considered that there is a great similarity with what happened with the Titanic, since the captain of the 1912 ocean liner was warned several times regarding the block of ice that was in front of the ship, but he ignored the warnings and continued sailing at full speed. causing the collapse.
In this sense, the filmmaker expressed that “it is a very similar tragedy where the warnings were ignored.”
He added: “That it happened in exactly the same place, with all the diving that’s going on all over the world, I think it’s amazing. It’s really quite surreal.”
