That "50-day" extension is ridiculous. Is it Trump's 10th attempt to buy time for Russia? I've stopped counting. I hope I'm wrong and in those 50 days Ukraine will hit Russia hard and knock the sh*t out of Putin's plans. Moscow was expecting the sanctions to hit this week. That.

SHAMEFUL! Apparently, @GiorgiaMeloni government's pro-family policy includes inviting the cultural ambassadors of Russia's genocidal regime which kidnaps thousands of children & whose drones and missiles rain down on Ukraine terrorizing & killing innocent civilians. Is this #EU.
