The partisan mobilization announced by Russian President Vladimir Putin on Wednesday is generating harsh reactions worldwide."NATO discussed using nuclear weapons against Russia.We also have new weapons.We will use all means to defend ourselves.The West has blackmailed Russia, but Russia has many weapons to fight back.We have various weapons of destruction and components much more modern than NATO's.We will use all the resources we have to defend our people.And I'm not bluffing!"are some of Putin's statements.His statement was interpreted as a direct nuclear threat and generated a wave of reactions.US President Joe Biden said in his speech at the United Nations General Assembly that the US is determined to defend democracy around the world."Putin threatened Europe nuclear today.We cannot live in fear.The US is determined to defend democracy around the world.Russia invaded a neighbor and senselessly violated the UN charter.No one threatened Russia and no one but Russia wanted a conflict.We pointed out that this war was imminent and many UN member states tried to avoid it.Ukraine has the same rights as any sovereign nation.We will stand in solidarity with Ukraine and against Russian aggression, period," Biden said.For his part, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg referred to Putin's statements as part of "dangerous and reckless nuclear rhetoric," according to CNN.Stoltenberg said in an interview with Reuters in New York that "nuclear war should never be fought," adding that it "will have unprecedented consequences for Russia."He added that NATO "has increased its military presence, particularly in the eastern part of the alliance, to eliminate any room for maneuver for miscalculations or misunderstandings in Moscow."Stay up to date with the

with disabilities "Sfânta Elena" Pianu de Jos, took part, on Thursday, September 22, in a pilgrimage organized by the Association Alba Iulia Orthodox Philanthropy.The 23 beneficiaries, aged between 25 and 73, visited several religious sites in Timiș County.The first stop was in the town of Românești, at the Izvorul Miron Monastery, an old hearth of Orthodox culture and faith, with particular importance in the past of the ancestral church.Founded by the patriarch Miron Cristea, the monastery bears the patron saint "Saint Elijah", being known for its water lily pools and the "Izvorul Tămăduirii" pool, where it is said that the water never freezes.Then, the beneficiaries visited the "Traian Vuia" Museum, from the town of the same name.On this occasion, they learned details from the life of the great Romanian inventor, the first in the world to make a self-propelled flight (without catapults or other external means) with an apparatus heavier than air.Dedicated to the memory of the pioneer of Romanian and world aviation, the museum includes numerous exhibits, documents, photographs and models: images and historical documents from the period of studies, data of Vuia's political activity (he being Romania's delegate to the Paris Peace Conference), confessions of his descendants, as well as models of flying machines (the model of the Vuia 1 plane, the model of the Vuia plane no. 2 and that of the Vuia helicopter no. 2).The itinerary continued with the Petroasa Mare Monastery, from the same locality, dedicated to "Saints Archangels Michael and Gabriel".Here, the beneficiaries enjoyed the beauty and tranquility of the lodge and were blessed by the Father Abbot, who said a prayer of release and a prayer of journey.The next visit was to the Timișeni Monastery, dedicated to the "Beheading of Saint John the Baptist", located approximately 14 km from Timișoara, in the Giroc Forest.The beneficiaries worshiped the relic with holy relics and raised prayers to our Savior Jesus Christ and to the Mother of God.The hikers then had lunch at a restaurant in the town of Șag, and had the opportunity to share their impressions of the places they had visited until that moment.The last stop of the day was at the Metropolitan Cathedral of Timișoara dedicated to the "Three Holy Hierarchs".Here, the beneficiaries worshiped the miracle-working Icon of Our Lady of Pantanassa and the reliquary with the relics of Saint Joseph the New from Partoș, admired the beauty of the painting and architecture of the cathedral, which was declared a true monument of art.The day center for adults with disabilities "St.Meletie" Alba Iulia offers information and social counseling services, psychological and spiritual counseling, recovery services, physical therapy and occupational therapy, professional guidance and facilitation of obtaining a job, socialization, cultural and recreational activities for 20 people with disabilities from Alba Iulia and for 105 people

Alba Iulia City Hall through the Alba Iulia Social Assistance Department and the Alba County Council through DGASPC Alba.The "Radu Stanca" National Theater in Sibiu is hosting this weekend the preview and premiere of the "Romeo and Juliet" show.The show marks the return of one of the world's greatest directors to Sibiu, Andriy Zholdak.He also put on the show "The Idiot" and "Turandot" at the theater in Sibiu and was present with various shows in the international festival held annually in the city."Two rival families.Two young people who turn their parents' hatred into love.A love story that will beat time.And a new opportunity to celebrate the miracle of the theater."Romeo and Juliet", signed by the Ukrainian director Andriy Zholdak, is a eulogy to beauty, but also a descent into the darkness of absolute passion.A modern adaptation of the Shakespearean text, the latest performance of the well-known "terrible child" of the European theater offers us a poetic experience about the abyss of the young soul and about its strength to find salvation through love.In a fragile period threatened by the pandemic and the war waged in the neighborhood of our country, the Sibian National offers viewers a memorable revisiting of a canonical text of universal culture that speaks, more than ever, about the "state of emergency" of the act of give to the other.Against this backdrop of overwhelming emotions, one stands out as the central couple who love to death, just as they ultimately die to love.With intensity, with stubbornness and, above all, with the hope that only youth and innocence can conquer.Bringing the students of the Department of Theater Arts to the fore, the Sibian production is a celebration of youth and a non-conformist way of feeling stage emotion, to make us partakers of the regenerative power of theater in a present paralyzed by fear."Romeo and Juliet" is a show created within the European project "LIBERTY", financed by the Creative Europe Program.TNRS is a "LIBERTY" partner alongside ArtReach, altonale GmbH, Explora - il Museo dei Bambini di Roma, CESIE, Aalborg Karneval, Center E8, for promoting lifestyles, CNC DANSE - nathalie
