The WH meeting was a spectacle of decline.

A U.S. President too self-serving to be strategic, in a ludicrous narcissistic marriage with Putin, while also undermining institutions and state capacity at home in the US - which will make it difficult for future US administrations to be strategic. 1/4

Putin and Netanyahu’s ideas for “peace” are the same. For “peace” They both want huge pieces of land that they will then ethnically cleanse the indigenous residents.

I hope the Ukrainians use the two weeks before the summit with Putin to blow up as much of the Russian oil industry as possible with their new ballistic missiles. Besides ensuring we don't buy Russian oil again, it would be an appropriate final fuck you to Orbán.

Americans will visit Japan and post on social media, “Japan is living in 2075,” and meanwhile they’re just talking about a functioning public transportation system and healthcare not bankrupting people.

Russia faces economic and demographic collapse — over a million men lost in its ridiculous and shockingly brutal annexation attempt of#Ukraine — so war criminal #Putin 👽 is banking on asset #felonTrump 🤡 to throw a lifeline and stall the West’s push to free Ukraine from his onslaught. 😡

On Aug 24, 1991, Ukraine broke free. In Dec, >90% chose sovereignty. Days later the USSR fell. Aug 24 is not just history, it’s defiance itself: proof that Ukraine cannot be erased, its freedom cannot be stolen, and its will to live free will 𝘯𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳 be broken.

#IamEuropean
Born in Spain, raised in Germany, living in France, studied in Great Britain, in love with a Ukrainian, and a Dutch citizen. I long for a Europe that is truly united — agile, inclusive, proud of its cultures, forward-looking, and a force for global good. ¡Viva Europa! Vive l’Europe !
❤️🇪🇺

Patriarchy lives in language and everyday things: “mankind” erases women, “he/she” puts men first, “Miss/Mrs.” defines women by men, “female doctor” marks women as exceptions. From childhood, girls absorb these cues — 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗱𝘀 𝗱𝗼𝗻’𝘁 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗺𝗶𝗿𝗿𝗼𝗿 𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗾𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆, 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗵 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗲𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗰𝗲 𝗶𝘁.

Strength without unity is fragile.
Unity without action is empty.
Action without courage is useless.
May our European leaders choose all three. Now. 🇪🇺🇺🇦

No wonder the Russians are patting themselves on the back — it was such a good idea to help Trump become president. Chaos, destruction, greed, corruption, and the gradual replacement of international order with "mafia culture." And daddy Putin is at the top of the food chain!

I very much agree. We urgently need a unified, value-based foreign policy - not just following, but LEADING with integrity. True European leadership needs to show more courage! And all our alliances must serve peace, justice, and the common good of humanity. 🌏🌍🌎✨

Today was the slap in the face and a déjà vu to my days at UN and why I left it. Politics are dirty, transactional and have nothing to do with humanity.

Slava Ukraini ✨🇺🇦💙💛

Unless they’re using all this (seemingly wasted) time to get their acts together behind closed doors to expel Russia from all of Ukraine’s territory, we’re holding our breath for nothing. Fine if they’re playing chummy with Diaper Donnie for risk control, but that’s literally all at this point.

The statements about security guarantees etc aren't worth much at this point. It's very unlikely Putin will agree to meet with Zelensky. Putin has no intention of agreeing to a ceasefire or peace (other than UA capitulation to his terms). UA has no choice but to fight on and we must support them.

President Stubb:

Some of the international media might wonder, "Why is the President of Finland here?" I think the reason is probably that we might come from a small country, but we have a long border with Russia, over 800 miles⤵️

French President Macron tells @kristenwelker.bsky.social that any deal with Russia must allow Ukraine to live in peace.

I wish!

Brian Glenn: President Zelenskyy, you look fabulous in that suit

Zelenskyy: You are in the same suit. I changed, you did not.
