« Je suis tellement heureuse d’être avec toi ! » : en Corée du Sud, des poupées IA pour rompre la solitude des seniors
LE FIGARO : Au pays du matin calme, des poupées dotées d’intelligence artificielle s’invitent chez les personnes âgées pour tenir compagnie, surveiller leur santé et combler un vide affectif que la famille ou les services sociaux peinent à combler.
Le futur est déjà là, inquiétant pour les uns, fascinant pour les autres. Dans son minuscule appartement où elle vit seule, Bang Chun-ja, 78 ans, passe ses journées avec une poupée dotée d'IA au comportement enfantin, une scène courante en Corée du Sud où la population est vieillissante. La poupée Hyodol salue Mme Bang lorsqu'elle rentre chez elle, chante des chansons quand elle s'ennuie, lui rappelle de prendre ses repas et médicaments, et lui répète qu'elle l'aime.
Une présence devenue essentielle : Bang Chun-ja a des contacts limités avec sa fille et est tombée dans une profonde dépression après une lourde opération du dos, passant des heures à fixer le plafond; terrassée par la douleur. Après un divorce difficile et des années comme coiffeuse et mère célibataire, la vieille dame confie à l'AFP: « à cet âge, il n'y a rien de plus dur que d'être blessée par les gens. Quand je suis avec Hyodol, je ne souffre jamais, elle me fait seulement rire ! » » | Par Le Figaro avec AFP | jeudi 11 juin 2026

Spaniens Boom dank Einwanderung | ARTE Re:
Jun 11, 2026 | In Spanien arbeiten viele Migrantinnen und Migranten ohne Status oder Papiere in den Bereichen Pflege, Landwirtschaft und Tourismus. Nun legalisiert ein Gesetz den Aufenthalt von rund 500.000 von ihnen.
Mildred, Diana und Luz sind Frauen, die es geschafft haben, sich in Spanien zu behaupten. Ändert das neue Gesetz ihr Leben? Mildred kam vor 15 Jahren aus Ecuador nach Spanien – auf der Suche nach Sicherheit und besseren Bildungschancen für sich und ihre Kinder. Sie reiste mit einem Touristenvisum ein und blieb. Wie viele Migrantinnen aus Lateinamerika fand sie Arbeit als Haushaltshilfe – ohne offiziellen Status und in ständiger Angst vor Abschiebung. "Es gab häufig Razzien in Diskotheken oder Nachtlokalen, wo Dokumente kontrolliert wurden. Deshalb bin ich gar nicht erst ausgegangen."
Der Dienstleistungssektor – insbesondere Tourismus, Pflege und haushaltsnahe Leistungen – zählt neben der Landwirtschaft zu den zentralen Treibern des spanischen Wirtschafts-wachstums. In diesem Bereich arbeiten die meisten der lateinamerikanischen Migrantinnen, darunter auch Mildred. Inzwischen arbeitet sie offiziell als Haushaltshilfe. Ihr Aufenthaltsstatus wurde im Zuge eines Regierungsdekrets legalisiert. Eine umstrittene Entscheidung: Für die einen ist das ein längst überfälliger Schritt zu Rechten, Schutz und gesellschaftlicher Teilhabe. Für die anderen ein Signal, das neue irreguläre Migration begünstigt.

Smoking Is Cool Again – and Hollywood’s to Blame
THE TELEGRAPH: From Oscar victors One Battle After Another and Sinners to Disney’s hit Kennedy drama Love Story, cigarettes are creeping back on to screens
Oscar Wilde wrote in The Picture of Dorian Gray that “A cigarette is the perfect type of a perfect pleasure. It is exquisite, and it leaves one unsatisfied. What more can one want?” For many years, cinema took the Wildean image of the cigarette as the Platonic idea of sophistication and developed it even further.
Who can forget Sean Connery’s introduction as 007 in Dr No, lighting a Craven A cigarette as he says the words “Bond… James Bond” for the first time on screen, or Humphrey Bogart disconsolately but stylishly smoking in Casablanca as he mourns his lost love, Ilsa, saying: “Of all the gin joints, in all the towns, in all the world, she walks into mine.”
Smoking on screen historically denoted sexiness, class and cool. This was the case when Sharon Stone lit up a cigarette in an interrogation room in Basic Instinct and sneered at the detectives interrogating her: “What are you going to do? Charge me with smoking?”
It was hard, coming of age in the Nineties, not to be impressed by it all, even as we were surrounded by health warnings; by the time I was at university, practically everyone I knew smoked. The only reason I refrained was because I was frankly rubbish at it. » | Alexander Larman | Wednesday, April 15, 2026
”Hollywood’s to blame”. One could turn that around and say ‘thanks to Hollywood’! 😊 Even though I am no longer a smoker, I am sick to death of all the bloody do-gooders around in the West these days. Quite frankly, they are so tiresome!
Do-gooders’ intentions are, I dare say,… ‘good’, but they are frightfully boring and such people are certainly not fun to be around. Also, it must be said that whatever their intentions, people have never been so unhealthy as they are today. When I look back, so many people smoked, yet most people remained relatively slim throughout their lives, and type-2 diabetes was relatively uncommon. These days, this is not the case. Since people stopped smoking en masse, they have satisfied their cravings by eating and drinking instead. People eat like there’s no tomorrow, and they often drink like fish! So, these days, people suffer from obesity, obesity-related diseases, and fatty liver disease instead of smoking-related diseases.
Even though I am no longer a smoker, I smoked most of my adult life — a pack a day. These days, young people want six packs. My generation wanted twenty-packs! 😊
Anyway, all jokes aside, whichever way we lead our lives, we will eventually suffer from something in the fulness of time; it’s almost inevitable. And as my American, long-term, deceased, and sorely-missed partner always used to say: You can’t get out of this life alive! Never were truer words spoken! (He, by the way, was not a smoker. He had stopped smoking aeons before I ever met him.)
I have heard it said that some people associate smoking with poverty, ill health, and an early death. Such negativity! Such pessimism! I don’t. I associate smoking with elegance, class, and style. There's something very alluring about a well-dressed gentleman smoking a cigarette. It looks so sexy, too. After all, isn't that why so many Hollywood movies showed so many actors and actresses smoking? — © Mark Alexander
What Albania Teaches Us about Kushner's Real Estate Tactics
Jun 10, 2026 | Jared Kushner, Donald Trump’s son-in-law, has finalized a deal with Albanian officials to allow construction on Sazan Island in the Adriatic Sea.
The $1.6bn project is expected to build luxury tourism real estate on the pristine island and surrounding waters and wetlands. Spurned [sic] by the potential environmental impact of the plan and the possibility of corrupt dealings, demonstrators have taken to the streets of Albania's capital city demanding an end to the project.
Cate Brown, the Guardian's political enterprise reporter, examines what the Kushner real estate deal on Sazan Island can teach us on how Donald Trump’s son-in-law pursues real estate ventures and examines why Albania isn't alone in its fight

SpaceX’s I.P.O. Could Turn 4,400 Employees Into Millionaires
THE NEW YORK TIMES: While Elon Musk may soon become a trillionaire, his rocket company’s market debut is set to the change the lives of its current and former employees, too.

As Trevor Hise was getting ready to graduate from college in 2011, his parents wanted him to take what they saw as a stable job at General Electric. But Mr. Hise had landed an internship at a start-up he loved. Against his parents’ advice, he stayed for a full-time job at that young company for the next 12 years.
The start-up was Elon Musk’s SpaceX.
Today, Mr. Hise has more than 100,000 SpaceX shares that he earned from his time working there. With the rocket maker expected to go public this week at $135 a share, Mr. Hise’s SpaceX stock is likely worth at least $13.5 million — a sum that has left him in disbelief.
“The magnitude of this has been ridiculous,” said the 37-year-old, who worked as a SpaceX launch engineer and now considers himself semiretired.
SpaceX’s journey to the stock market has been defined by a series of superlatives. It is the biggest-ever initial public offering of the most dominant space company by the world’s richest man. And it is set to unleash generational wealth if its shares soar in its trading debut at the whopping valuation of $1.77 trillion, five times the market capitalization of General Electric.
SpaceX’s I.P.O. is expected to make a lot of rich people even richer. First in the queue is Mr. Musk, 54, who is likely to become the world’s first trillionaire. His friends, along with Silicon Valley venture capitalists, private investment firms and others who put money into the company, are also set to reap billions. » | Kirsten Grind Reporting from San Francisco | Wednesday, June 10, 2026

The Air Is Leaking Out of Donald Trump | Steve Schmidt
Trump is garbage; Trump is trash! He should never have been elected and still less re-elected as America’s president. Common sense, if Americans had any, dictates that one doesn’t elect a convicted felon and sex-offender into the highest office in the land as one’s president. It is simply asking for trouble; and trouble Americans have got. Alas, though not only Americans! We in the rest of the West, too, have also got to share that trouble! — © Mark Alexander
Norvège : la justice ordonne la remise en liberté du fils de la princesse Mette-Marit gravement malade
LE FIGARO : Accusé de viols et violences, le fils de la princesse héritière de Norvège, âgé de 29 ans, restera derrière les barreaux jusqu’à ce qu’une cour d’appel ait traité le dossier. Le parquet a immédiatement fait appel de cette décision.
La justice norvégienne a ordonné lundi la remise en liberté du fils de la princesse héritière de Norvège, Marius Borg Høiby, pour pouvoir être auprès de sa mère gravement malade, en attendant le verdict pour les viols et violences dont il est accusé. Le parquet ayant immédiatement fait appel de cette décision, l'homme de 29 ans restera toutefois derrière les barreaux jusqu'à ce qu'une cour d'appel ait traité le dossier.
Né d'une relation antérieure au mariage de sa mère Mette-Marit avec le prince héritier Haakon, Høiby est en détention provisoire depuis début février. Lors de son procès qui s'est tenu du 3 février au 19 mars, il a dû répondre de 40 chefs d'accusation, rejetant les plus graves, à savoir quatre viols sur des femmes qui n'étaient pas en état de résister et des violences répétées sur une ex-compagne. Le verdict est attendu lundi prochain. » | Par Le Figaro avec AFP | mardi 9 juin 2026

Gedenken an Holocaust-Opfer - Verbrechen: Homosexualität | Kontrovers | BR24
Jan 27, 2022 | Kriminalisiert, im KZ gefoltert und ermordet: Homosexuelle wie Richard Grune galten während des NS-Regimes als Verbrecher - offiziell auch noch im Nachkriegsdeutschland bis Ende der 60er Jahre. Bis heute kämpfen Homosexuelle gegen Hass und Diskriminierung. Die KZ-Gedenkstätte Flossenbürg und das Projekt "ReMember" arbeiten zusammen mit Jugendlichen daran, Hass, Rassismus und Antisemitismus zu bekämpfen.
Lange hat man sie als Opfer der Konzentrationslager nicht im Blick gehabt: Homosexuelle Männer wie Richard Grune. Er kam ins KZ - weil er Männer liebte und keine Frauen. 1933 zog Grune nach Berlin, wollte künstlerisch arbeiten und sich als Homosexueller sicher fühlen. Nur kurze Zeit später, im Jahr 1934, wurde er als Homosexueller registriert und zunächst in verschiedenen Gefängnissen festgehalten. Ab 1937 bis zum Ende des NS-Regimes im Jahr 1945 war er in Konzentrationslagern: Gezeichnet mit dem nationalsozialistischen Symbol für homosexuelle Gefangene, dem Rosa Winkel. Fünf dieser acht Jahre musste Grune in Flossenbürg verbringen.

Democracy Now! Hasan Piker on Being Banned from UK, Travelling to Cuba & Supporting Candidates Critical of Israel
Jun 5, 2026 | The British government earlier this week barred left-wing political commentators Hasan Piker and Cenk Uygur from entering the UK ahead of several speaking events. The Home Office said it was cancelling their travel permits because "their presence in the U.K. may not be conducive to the public good."
Piker and Uygur, who are related, are both outspoken in their criticism of Israel. While the government did not cite a specific reason for the ban, some lawmakers and pro-Israel groups had accused the two of promoting antisemitism, which they reject.
"I find what the British government did here to be objectionable. I find it to be disgusting. I also find it to be terrifying," Piker tells Democracy Now!_"I think it's a sign that we're … headed down a very different — dare I say, fascist — direction in the Western world."

Guerre en Iran, inflation, popularité... Donald Trump collectionne revers et déconvenues
LE FIGARO : ANALYSE - Le conflit au Moyen-Orient et la hausse des prix rendent le président de plus en plus impopulaire. Tandis que les républicains sont moins enclins à soutenir tous ses projets, à commencer par les plus somptuaires.
Les contrariétés s’accumulent pour Donald Trump. Le 250e anniversaire de la fondation des États-Unis, qui tombe par un heureux hasard le même jour que le sien, le 14 juin, est déjà l’objet de controverses qui menacent de gâcher la fête. Sa « petite excursion » militaire contre l’Iran traîne en longueur. Au lieu des quelques semaines prévues, le conflit a dépassé les cent jours et son issue reste incertaine. Les Iraniens refusent de s’avouer vaincus, le détroit d’Ormuz reste fermé à la navigation, et la guerre menace régulièrement de reprendre pour se transformer en un conflit régional. L’impopularité de cette aventure militaire alimente celle du président, tombé aussi bas dans les sondages que Joe Biden après son retrait catastrophique d’Afghanistan en 2021. La hausse des prix du carburant et la reprise de l’inflation attisent le mécontentement, alimentant la nervosité des républicains à l’approche des élections de mi-mandat, en novembre prochain.
Même si Trump maintient son contrôle sur le parti, certains élus commencent à manifester des réticences à soutenir les projets les plus audacieux de ce président pas comme les autres. La création d’un fonds d’indemnisation de 1,776 milliard de dollars pour verser des dommages et intérêts aux victimes de l’Administration Biden, à commencer par les émeutiers du 6 janvier 2021, passe mal. L’enrichissement de Trump et de son entourage et ses projets somptuaires servent aux démocrates à décrire un président coupé des réalités, ne fréquentant que des oligarques, et reclus dans son cocon doré de Mar-a-Lago. » | Par Adrien Jaulmes, correspondant à Washington | mercredi 10 juin 2026

Violence Erupts in Belfast after Protests over Knife Attack
THE GUARDIAN: Crowds, including people in masks and hoods, burned vehicles and properties after calls for demonstrations from far-right figures
Protests against immigration have erupted into violence in Northern Ireland after far-right activists called for demonstrations in response to a stabbing attack that was captured in a graphic video.
Crowds including masked men burned vehicles and houses and blocked roads in and around Belfast on Tuesday night, hours after Elon Musk, Tommy Robinson and other agitators exhorted people to take to the streets.
Protesters hijacked and burned a Glider bus on Newtownards Road in east Belfast and torched cars near Shankill Road and in Newtownabbey, from which smoke poured while sirens sounded and a police helicopter hovered above.
The unrest flared hours after police charged a 30-year-old asylum seeker from Sudan with attempted murder in connection with an attack in north Belfast on Monday night that left a man critically injured and prompted widespread shock and condemnation. The suspect is to appear at Belfast magistrates court on Wednesday. » | Rory Carroll, Hannah Al-Othman, Helena Horton and Robyn Vinter | Wednesday, June 10, 2026

US Strikes Iran in Response to Downing of Military Helicopter | BBC News
Jun 10, 2026 | The US says it has carried out a series of strikes on Iranian military and surveillance sites in response to the downing of an American helicopter in the Gulf. Air defence systems, ground control stations and radar sites were targeted near the Strait of Hormuz, the US military Central Command (Centcom) said.
In response, Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said it launched strikes on 21 targets at US bases in the region, one in Bahrain and the other in Jordan, while Kuwait's army said it was also intercepting an attack.
The US has described its strikes as "a proportional response" for the Apache helicopter downing on Monday, while the IRGC described the attacks as "vicious".
US President Donald Trump had earlier accused Iran of shooting down the helicopter and said the US "must, of necessity" respond. The two crew members survived and were rescued by an American sea drone.

Trump’s Sharp Turn on China: Embracing It as a Peer Power

After meeting with China’s top diplomat in Malaysia last summer, Secretary of State Marco Rubio uttered a line that made few waves at the time but would later help pave the way for an abrupt change.
The United States and China, Mr. Rubio said, had an “opportunity here to achieve some strategic stability” and find areas of cooperation. He used the phrase again in February while talking about China in the Caribbean, also to little notice.
Chinese officials picked up on Mr. Rubio’s remarks and suggested to their U.S. counterparts even rosier language to describe ties between the two nations, according to two people with knowledge of the previously unreported diplomacy.
The new phrase — “constructive strategic stability” — was rolled out by both governments during President Trump’s meeting in Beijing last month with the leader of China, Xi Jinping.
Although the language sounds stiff and somewhat vague, such diplomatic terms serve as important guideposts. The new catchphrase signals to agencies in both nations, and to other powers, that the United States and China — the world’s two largest economies and most powerful militaries — are looking to work together or limit hostilities, notably on trade and Taiwan. » | Edward Wong | Edward Wong, the author of a book on China, reported from the field during President Trump’s visit to Beijing and Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s trip to India. | Tuesday, June 9, 2026

As the large roaring grizzly bear charged down at him from across a snow field in Montana and mauled him, hiker Daniel Crago had just enough time to put his arm up and think: “This is it.”
But two weeks after that perilous, exceedingly rare encounter in Glacier national park, Crago, 32, is still alive, recovering after three surgeries and feeling “extremely lucky”, he said on Monday in an interview with ABC News.
Crago was attacked by the bear off the park’s Grinnell Glacier Trail on 28 May, during the last hike of a week-long trip he had taken with a friend. » | Vivian Ho | Tuesday, June 9, 2026

‘We Want to See Him in Ukraine’: Zelenskyy Hopes to Invite King Charles on State Visit
THE GUARDIAN: Exclusive: Ukrainian leader says he has ‘a very good relationship’ with British monarch, who has supported his country
Volodymyr Zelenskyy has revealed that he plans to invite King Charles on a state visit to Ukraine as early as this year, which would make him the most senior royal to travel to Kyiv since Russia’s full-scale invasion.
The Ukrainian president said he had a close relationship with the king, whom he has met on numerous occasions, including when he gave a public show of support after Zelenskyy’s explosive visit to the White House last year.
In an interview with the Guardian, Zelenskyy said: “Today I want to invite him [the king] very much. I don’t know from the point of security. Yes, of course, we want to see him in Ukraine very much. I don’t know how it will be this year, if it’s possible, but of course we want to see him.”
Zelenskyy said Charles had continued to support Ukraine, but refused to divulge exactly how. “It’s up to his majesty to answer on such questions,” he said. » | Pippa Crerar and Luke Harding | Tuesday, June 8, 2026

Why the Whole World Is Booing Trump | Steve Schmidt
Par crainte d’une attaque « à l’iranienne », le Kremlin renforce la sécurité autour de Vladimir Poutine
LE FIGARO : DÉCRYPTAGE - Outre les frappes de drones, Moscou redoute un piratage des caméras de vidéosurveillance, comme celui qui a permis l’élimination à Téhéran du guide suprême iranien, le 28 février dernier.
Entourée de secret, la sécurité de Vladimir Poutine suscite une préoccupation croissante au Kremlin, dans le contexte de la guerre en Ukraine qui dure et du recours systématique à l’intelligence artificielle (IA) par les services de renseignements occidentaux. Récemment, le réseau de caméras destiné à protéger le président russe et son entourage aurait été temporairement désactivé pour vérifier sa vulnérabilité et le prémunir au maximum des piratages externes, selon le Financial Times (FT) du 8 juin.
D’après le quotidien britannique, le système de surveillance dédié à la protection du président russe – distinct des quelque trois cent mille caméras qui surveillent les citoyens de Moscou -, n’a été remis en marche qu’après que des ingénieurs l’ont minutieusement examiné pour le couper hermétiquement d’internet. Le déclencheur de ces mesures exceptionnelles ne fait pas de doute : elles ont été décidées après l’assassinat du guide suprême iranien, le 28 février dernier. » | Par Alain Barluet, Correspondant à Moscou | mardi 9 juin 2026

Marlene Dietrich : Lili Marlene * | Reupload
Liedtexte:
Vor der Kaserne bei dem großen Tor
Stand eine Laterne und steht sie noch davor
So wollen wir uns da wieder seh´n
Bei der Laterne wollen wir steh´n
Wie einst, Lili Marleen.
Unsere beiden Schatten sah’n wie einer aus
Daß wir so lieb uns hatten, daß sah man gleich daraus
Und alle Leute soll’n es seh’n
Wenn wir bei der Laterne steh’n
Wie einst, Lili Marleen.
Schon rief der Posten, sie blasen Zapfenstreich
Es kann drei Tage kosten, Kamerad, ich komm ja gleich
Da sagten wir auf Wiedersehen
Wie gerne wollt ich mit dir geh’n
Mit dir, Lili Marleen
später entstandene Strophen:
Deine Schritte kennt sie, deinen zieren Gang
Alle abend brennt sie, doch mich vergaß sie lang
Und sollte mir ein Leid gescheh’n
Wer wird bei der Laterne stehen
Mit dir, Lili Marleen?
Aus dem stillen Raume, aus der Erden Grund
Küßt mich wie im Traume, dein verliebter Mund
Wenn sich die späten Nebel drehn
Werd‘ ich bei der Laterne steh’n
Wie einst Lili Marleen
Wie einst Lili Marleen

* Beachte: Im Deutschen ist dieses Lied als Lili Marleen bekannt. Im Englischen heißt es jedoch Lili Marlene. Daher rührt die kleine Verwirrung. — Mark
Bernie Sanders Declares Political War against Trump and Powerful Oligarchs
Jun 9, 2026 | Bernie Sanders delivered a fiery speech criticizing U.S. President Donald Trump and what he described as the growing influence of wealthy élites and powerful interests in American politics.
During his remarks, Sanders called for political engagement, economic reform, and greater accountability from those he argues hold disproportionate power over government and public policy.
The speech energized supporters and sparked renewed debate over wealth inequality, corporate influence, and the future of American democracy.
I have said this before, surely a million times! But I will say it again: Bernie Sanders is the man who should be the president of the USA. This man has got a heart, this man cares about people, especially the underprivileged, and this man, were he to be elected as president, would definitely do something to alleviate the suffering of the masses.
Yet, it is an enigma to me why the American electorate aren’t smart enough to realize that if they elected this gentleman to the presidency, their fortunes would start to change for the better almost overnight, as would the fortunes of America itself. Overnight, America would start to change from the harsh, cruel, ante-Diluvian country it is into a modern, progressive nation which puts the well-being of its citizens first, puts the well-being if its citizens above the interests of corporations and powerful lobby groups.
I have heard it said so many times that many Americans cannot vote for Bernie Sanders because he is too left-wing, too socialist. Fact is, however, Bernie Sanders is nothing of the sort. Here in Europe, were Bernie Sanders to run for political office, he would be considered a moderate.
My message to Americans is simple and clear, and it is this: Vote for Bernie Sanders and change your fortunes for the better, and change, once and for all, the image of, and trajectory of, the nation you all profess to love so much and are all so very proud of. — © Mark Alexander

Kushner’s Sazan Plan: Barefoot Self-discovery or Modern Land Grab?| Soumaya Ghannoushi | MEE Opinion
Jun 9, 2026 | Soumaya Ghannoushi, a writer and expert in Middle East politics, argues that Jared Kushner's multi-billion-dollar plan to build a luxury resort on Sazan Island exposes a significant disconnect between elite privilege and the real-world implications of sovereignty.
Ghannoushi points out that what Ivanka Trump describes as an innocent "barefoot discovery" of an untouched "mysterious Mediterranean paradise" is actually a calculated venture supported by foreign sovereign wealth funds and facilitated by local authorities that are compliant with these plans.
She argues that Kushner is attempting to reduce sovereign geography to merely a picturesque backdrop, drawing a troubling parallel to his controversial real estate ambitions regarding the "waterfront potential of Gaza" during Israel’s genocidal war on the besieged strip.
This is a fantastic synopsis. Bravo! — Mark

Die neue Regierung Bulgariens will der ukrainischen Armee keine weiteren Waffen liefern, erklärte Verteidigungsminister Dimitar Stoyanov laut der bulgarischen Nachrichtenagentur BTA am Dienstag. „Wir erleben einen Abnutzungskrieg, und egal wie viele Waffen angehäuft werden, das Ergebnis ist der Verlust von Menschenleben“, sagte er demnach.
Stoyanov sagte laut Bloomberg, die Ukraine brauche „mehr Menschen, nicht mehr Waffen“ und forderte einen „gerechten Frieden, der von beiden Konfliktparteien mitgestaltet wird“. Dabei sei auch die Rolle der EU „von größter Bedeutung“. Er sprach sich dem Bericht zufolge außerdem für die Aufhebung der Sanktionen gegen Russland aus, da diese der europäischen Wirtschaft schadeten. » | Anika Schlünz | Dienstag, 9. Juni 2026
