Ukraine has supplied the U.S. with extensive intelligence and vast amounts of data on Russian technology, captured equipment, battlefield operational guides, weapon performance, and countermeasures against US provided systems. A shame no one seems to remembers or appreciates it

What weβre witnessing in America is what happens when disordered discourse captures a political party, then the state itself. The Republican Party was the first to fall - abandoning truth for conspiracy, ideology for grievance, and policy for performative outrage.

The text "Courage has a name" is written above the silhouette, and "UKRAINE" is prominently displayed in the center. In the bottom left corner, there's the hashtag "#StandWithUkraine," and in the bottom right corner, there's a small European Union flag. It conveys a strong message of solidarity and highlights Ukraine's courage.

Trumpβs rhetoric echoes this, donβt fall for it
My warmest greetings go out to the wonderful people who built their careers sniffing out βUkrainian Nazisβ under every stone in Ukraine for tasty headlines that fueled Russian war propaganda on this-is-why-Ukraine-must-be-dealt-with, only to get Nazi salutes normalized in their own country.

Iβd like to remind you that there was no deal or agreement on that. However, Ukraine did sign a written agreement in which the U.S. provided "security assurances" in exchange for Ukraine giving up its nuclear weapons. We would now like our nuclear weapons back

Europe, the time is now. I actually naively had hope but Itβs so very clear where America stands now. Either Europe steps up in every single way to stop the russian aggression or this cancer will end our world as we know it. America will be on the other side of history for this one.
