Europe must finally grow up. The security of our neighbors, and therefore our own, lies in our hands—not in Washington. It's time for a strong, independent European plan: full support for Ukraine, massive rearmament, and united resolve. No more begging. No more waiting for
There is a glaringly obvious message for Europe in the 28 point plan: This is the end of the end. We have been told repeatedly and unambiguously that Ukraine’s security, and therefore Europe’s security, will be Europe’s responsibility. And now it is. Entirely. If you are a

This is the Ukrainian answer the Putin-Witkoff demand that Ukraine capitulate: A resounding no. Ain’t gonna happen. Take that 28 point plan that was drafted in the Kremlin and throw it in the trash.
Zelensky: We are facing one of the most dangerous periods in Ukrainian history, a choice between losing our dignity and freedom and losing US support. We choose dignity. My answer is my oath of office. I did not betray Ukraine in Feb 2022 and we won’t betray in now.

EU:lle on nyt tarjolla unionin historian häpeällisin hetki, elleivät tähän asti saamattomiksi nysvääjiksi osoittautuneet johtajat viime hetkellä löydä selkärankaansa. En löisi vetoa sen puolesta.
Expected. Although, the headline should have been "US threatens to cut intel, weapons to press Ukraine to surrender" @Reuters Because that peace deal is nothing but capitulation.

Zelenskyy has posted a deeply difficult, ten‑minute national address. It is honestly heartbreaking to watch. I’m sure translations are already circulating and you’ll find it online, but the first point you need to hear is this: "Right now is one of the most difficult moments

The same time we see reports of the US supposedly negotiating another worthless "peace plan" with Russia. This is Putin's peace, more murdered Ukrainian civilians. Ukrainian victory remains the only real peace plan.
16 murdered. 64 injured, including 14 children. People were sleeping at home — in what they believed was a safe place, somewhere in the middle of a residential district in the western city of Ternopil. My heart bleeds in agony. Everyone who supports russia is complicit.

The new 2025 Global Carbon Budget finds that fossil fuel emissions will reach a new high in 2025. Total CO2 emissions (including land use) remain flat at 2024 levels. While the land sink is up from 2024, carbon sinks are weakening: https://t.co/8zJA1S8SkU

He’s just such a horrible, horrible, stupid, ignorant psychopath who cannot fathom the concepts of honor and sacrifice. He cannot fathom a cause greater than himself. It says so much about us as a people and how broken our politics is that we put him in power.
Q: Can you clarify your comments where you said the Presidential Medal of Freedom is much better than the Congressional Medal of Honor? Many veterans are upset about that Trump: I would rather get it. People who get the Congressional Medal of Honor are often horribly wounded or

russian occupation is not peace — it’s terror and sham “trials.” Yulia Stanika, 30, from Kherson region, was sentenced to 12.5 years in a russian prison for donating to Ukraine’s Armed Forces. Her “crime”? Being Ukrainian on Ukrainian land — and showing loyalty to her country.

It seems we’ve already said to the world everything we could over these years. We presented arguments, told stories, explained meanings. And truly, we’ve repeated the important things so many times that I long ago caught myself thinking I’ve grown tired of myself in this role.
