There is no doubt about the future of the occupied territories in the south and east. They will be abandoned, forgotten, and Russified; all resistance will be massacred, and in five years the region will be "Russian," like Crimea today (58% Russian before 2014, 75% today).

Retour à la case départ. La guerre continuera car la Russie ne souhaite pas la paix. Le ministre des Affaires étrangères russe Lavrov a laissé entendre que la Russie n'acceptera pas la proposition mise à jour du "plan de paix" des États-Unis si elle prend beaucoup moins en

J’ai rencontré une fois ce Monsieur. Sa seule demande a été que la France renonce aux sanctions vis à vis de la Russie. Il est probable qu’il n’a pas aimé ma réponse. Je n’ai pas oublié non plus qu’il s’intéressait plus aux intérêts de Moscou qu’à ceux des Français.

Protesters gathered outside US embassies worldwide against forcing Ukraine into a "capitulation deal" Around 50 people rallied at the US Embassy in Brussels on Monday, warning the proposed agreement legitimizes Russian aggression and threatens European security @IcuvUa

@mattduss It’s one thing for NATO to refuse membership for Ukraine. It’s another for Ukraine to have a binding limitation to its sovereign right to ask. The U.S. and Russia don’t need Ukraine’s assent on the first. The issue here is whether Ukraine retains full or limited sovereignty.

Pro-Russian "British" right-wing account @admcollingwood (23.4K followers) and his @MultipolarPod turns out – surprise – to be Russian.

I'm sure some of these are state/political projects, but I suspect most are just smart people in low and middle income countries doing it for the money, because Twitter invented a direct and quick way to make cold hard cash from making Americans angry and upset online.

And of course, just as it happened multiple times over these years, Russia will absolutely reject such a plan without even looking at it. Because that would require wanting a real and stable peace with Ukraine, an independent sovereign nation, which is exactly opposite to what

americans cannot be trusted.

Full 24 Point EU Counter Peace Proposal For Ukraine: 1. Ukraine's sovereignty to be reconfirmed. 2. There will be a total and complete non-aggression agreement reached between Russia and Ukraine and NATO. All ambiguities from the last 30 years will be resolved. 3. There will be

Europe has Ukraines back. Already all of the Baltic states amongst others have committed to ramping up military support for Ukraine.

Spent my Saturday analysing the 28-point plan. The result: If the US is seriously considering enforcing this plan, it would place itself in violation of: • 13 binding treaties and international instruments • 23 political commitments, declarations, and authoritative

“America has been desperately trying to surrender in a war it’s not even fighting” Quote of the day!

News are horrible but not for the first time. In such moments we can only mobilize and help the Ukrainian army.

I actually feel bad for the historians of the future. They’ll go mad trying to write massive monographs explaining how, in the 2020s, people in power could be such unbelievable idiots.

"Like #Ukraine, Czechoslovakia was a distant country of which we knew little, sacrificing their territory for peace made sense. Failing that, Hitler’s next target would undoubtedly be another distant country. Two years later, bombs were falling on London." https://t.co/ZrvYpoD3yI

Coucou la @STIBMIVB , on comprends qu'il y a un blocage sur le 25 et la 7, mais ça fait une demi heure qu'on attends un 81 a buyl alors que plein de trams vide HS qui nous passent sous le nez.

The Russian Military continues to strike civilian targets, but Music venues are welcoming a Russian pianist who will play for Russian Soldiers on Friday. Let's stop them! All information in the pad!⬇️ https://t.co/82frHHKfFS #Russia #Ukraine #RussiaUkraineWar #NAFO #culture

Donald Trump called a reporter "piggy". It's unfortunate reporters don't call him a "fat bag of shit"

Residential building in Ternopil destroyed. This is western Ukraine, far from the frontline. But Russia doesn’t need a frontline to kill civilians.
