    Dear Mr Putin: Two more NATO and two more EU candidates at Russia's borders, in four months. Congratulations! What is the plan for the next four months?

    There are rumors that Russia plans a major attack on Kyiv. It would be good to know what exact consequences for Western policies this will have. A few more Ukraine festivals and seized yachts?

    Replace "Greenland" with "Crimea" or "Donbas" - and you get Moscow’s propaganda preparing the Russian invasions of Ukraine since 2014. Reminds also of the aggressors' narratives for justifying many other military interventions, occupations, and annexations in world history.

    Do those criticizing Ukraine's recent mass destruction of Russian #TupolevBombers find it tolerable that these planes launched many cruise missiles into Ukraine? On 8 July 2024, one of the missiles (#Kh101) hit Ukraine's major children hospital #Okhmatdyt in Kyiv. No problem?

    Thirty years ago, the United States persuaded Ukraine that it does not need nuclear weapons and gave Ukraine "security assurances." Today, the United States is persuading Ukraine that it needs to give up territories, forget about NATO membership, and lower the conscription age.

    THREAD ON BLOCKADES OF UKRAINIAN TRUCKS The blockades on the borders of Poland, Slovakia, and Hungary are stabs in the back, in three senses: 1. They are betrayals of people who today fight the same imperial power that Poles, Slovaks, and Hungarians suffered from in the past.

    A bizarre press conference in Bonn - Russia's war as a secondary topic - odd call for fewer Western sanctions - claim ordinary Russians are anti-war - positive reference to Solzhenitsyn Conclusion: A wasted Russian chance to create a common anti-Putin front with the Ukrainians.

    Als deutscher Staatsbürger möchte ich sagen, dass die Bewaffnung der Ukraine seit Jahrzehnten die beste Verwendung meiner Steuergelder ist. Mein einziger Kritikpunkt ist, dass der Westen nicht genug und nicht schnell genug sendet. #SlavaUkraini

    While Germany has recently provided significant help to Ukraine, Berlin has also significant historical responsibility vis-a-vis Kyiv. In 1941-44, Germany devastated Ukraine. Since 2014, Berlin has indirectly helped Moscow to devastate Ukraine,.../1 @DUHK_2020 @DGO_Berlin @dgapev

    A #Tu95 bomber launches on 8 July 2024 a #Kh101 missile into Ukraine's largest children hospital Okhmatdyt. Ukraine destroys several Tu-95 bombers on 1 June 2025. @realDonaldTrump: Putin justified to hit back. Conclusion: Americans don't mind Russia bombing children hospitals?

    Russian propaganda is joyfully reposting a video of Trump saying that Ukraine gave Putin a reason to “bomb the hell of them last night” as justification for Russia’s terrorist strikes on Ukrainian civilians.
