IMO it is time to ban X from the whole of Europe. It is used as a political weapon against Europe, and it is also without bonderies. X is like RT for the americans, just with russians also. We (europeans) can easily do our free speach from a better platform than X.

When GPS is jammed, we can use Earth’s magnetic field
Jamming and spoofing of GPS signals is increasingly affecting navigation for ships, aircraft, and drones. Scientists are working on an alternative to GPS positioning, which is based on Earth’s magnetic field and cannot be jammed.
