🔴 Ukraine's PM Svyrydenko showed the extent of the damage that Russian drone caused to the building of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine.
She called on international partners to increase pressure on Russia and close the sky above Ukraine.
It’s been clear for a while now. Aggressive Russia does not want peace. It plays games, escalates its illegal war against #Ukraine, hits civilian targets. So what is needed? more military support🇺🇦, isolation, biting sanctions on RF&facilitators. Use frozen assets. #Time2ActNow

Had the pleasure of visiting Poland’s new modern-art museum in the very centre of Warsaw. Head curator Szymon Maliborski guided me around and I really loved it. Go and make up your own mind.

BREAKING: The United States joined Russia, Belarus, North Korea, Eritrea, Mali, Nicaragua, Niger and Sudan in voting against a UN General Assembly resolution condemning Russian aggression against Ukraine.
The resolution, initiated by Luxembourg and Lithuania, was backed by 105 countries.
"On Tyranny" is a #1 NYT bestseller again. I wish the moment were different. But I’m glad the book is useful. And grateful for all the kind words about putting the 20 lessons to work.

Oekraïne heeft onze steun hard nodig voor langdurige vrede. Zowel militaire leveringen als robuuste veiligheidsgaranties.
Oekraïne blijft ongekend strijdbaar om de Russische agressie tegen te houden, ook voor ons. Diep respect! 🇳🇱🇺🇦
De conclusie na deze week is dat Europese landen in actie moeten komen.
Voor een plek aan tafel zullen we militaire kracht op de mat moeten leggen, gestut door een sterke economie.
Dat is cruciaal om na 80 jaar vrijheid Nederland, Europa én Oekraïne veilig te houden.
We willen vrede door kracht, geen oorlog door zwakte.
Wél duurzame vrede, géén slechte deal die meer Russische agressie uitlokt.
Daarvoor moeten we Oekraïne onverminderd steunen en tegelijk robuuste veiligheidsgaranties vormgeven.
Essentieel voor onze gezamenlijke veiligheid!
De realiteit is voorlopig dat Oekraïne elke dag een gigantisch zware oorlog vecht.
De realiteit is dat alleen vanuit een sterke positie Rusland tot concessies kan worden gedwongen.
Daarom kondigen we steeds nieuwe steun aan voor Oekraïne, zoals nu gepantserde rupsvoertuigen ⤵️

Als je dit weekend iets leest over de Russische oorlog tegen Oekraine laat het dan dit interview met Bob Deen van Clingendael zijn. Alleen dekt de titel volgens mij niet geheel de lading….
