UN calls for return of Russia-abducted Ukrainian children in US-backed vote

The #US supported the resolution, while #Russia , #Belarus and #Iran have voted against it. Fifty-seven countries, including #China, #India and #Brazil, #abstained from voting.

Since the start of Russia’s full-scale invasion in February 2022, #Ukraine has identified over 19,500 #children who were illegally transferred to Russia, Belarus, or Russian-occupied territories. Fewer than 1,300 have been brought back.

"There will be no just #peace in Ukraine without the unconditional return of #UkrainianChildren. This resolution is not about politics. It is about humanity," Deputy Foreign Minister Mariana Betsa said at the U.N. General Assembly debate.

#Macron #Russia #USA #EUPol #Ukraine #Betrayal #NATO #Fascism

Now this is brazen #projection even for the Gremlin from the #Kremlin.
Who invaded #Ukraine twice - in 2014 and 2022?
Who could stop this #war at any moment by retreating from Ukraine's territory.

In reality #Putin thrives on war. From Grozny to South Ossetia and Northern Abkhazia, from Transnistria to Ukraine war has been his career ladder.

Bugger off and die a miserable death soon, Vladimir! To hell with you and all of your orks.

President #Zelenskyy:

💬 "An important day in Paris. We are grateful to Emmanuel Macron for his support and strong stance.

And we are grateful to France's First Lady Brigitte Macron for her constant involvement in numerous humanitarian projects for Ukrainians, both in #France and in #Ukraine.

Funny how ‘annexation’ becomes ‘changing the map’ when it’s an ally. The West’s vocabulary shifts faster than its principles.

Russia declares #HumanRightsWatch an 'undesirable organization'

“Our work hasn’t changed, but what’s changed, dramatically, is the [Russian] government’s full-throttled embrace of #dictatorial policies, its staggering rise in #repression, and the scope of the #WarCrimes its forces are committing in #Ukraine,” said Philippe Bolopion, executive director at Human Rights Watch.

The designation under #Russia's controversial "undesirable organizations" law prohibits groups from operating within Russia and makes it a criminal offense for individuals to participate in their activities. The law has been widely criticized by #HumanRights advocates.

Russia’s Ministry of Justice has designated Human Rights Watch an “undesirable organization,” effectively banning the group from operating in the country, on Nov. 28.

"His emissaries are selling out our allies and seeking to pressure them into capitulation to foreign enemies in ways that will undermine our national security and that of many of our most important friends and partners.

Starkly unqualified crackpots have been put in charge of our healthcare system and are actively seeking to undo two centuries of progress in the administration of public health."

'Successful' Ukrainian naval drone strike disables 2 Russian shadow fleet tankers, source says

The operation targeted ships that, according to the source, could have transported nearly $70 million worth of oil and helped Moscow bypass international sanctions.

Luckily I had been invited to yesterday's launch of @waldorfmusic 's latest gem, the handbag sized #Protein #synthesizer. Small but very capable classical Waldorf wavetable synth with the musically glitchy sound of the original Microwave 1, if you like. But adding to the archetype, it comes with a modulation matrix and a lot more. And it looks great and is really cheap.

Kateryna Zavoloka from #Ukraine gave a overwhelming demonstration, after the introduction by Waldorf CEO Rolf Wöhrmann. Whoa!

How the U.S. Drafted a Russia-Friendly Peace Plan for Ukraine

Crucial input from Kremlin confidant influenced document that for week roiled relations among the U.S., Ukraine and Europe

^{Robbie Gramer (The Wall Street Journal)}

Whenever Vance starts talking about Ukraine and russia needing to “trade” and hold “cultural exchanges,” he should be forced to look at this.

A father in Ternopil rocking the coffin of his child.

He was the only one left alive in the apartment, waiting three days for rescuers to reach his wife and two children.

#russiaisaterroriststate #ukraine #ternopil #vance

laugh about how it was always a joke, because it goes both ways: the deal didn't promise Ukraine security, but it also didn't promise the US the minerals the president kept crowing about.

It was a little stunt that both Ukrainian and US officials pulled just to get Trump to shut up and let the adults talk.

#Trump #Ukraine #USPolitics

I can't believe Ukraine isn't grateful that Witkoff took a Russian plan for Ukrainian capitulation, ran it through Google Translate, and mandated that Zelenskyy accept it by Thursday!

My soul is shattered over the impact of Americans having not elected Kamala. All the pain and suffering — domestically as well as in Ukraine and elsewhere — could have been avoided.

Things are going to get much, much worse, and my heart breaks for #Ukraine.

The trauma endures, as russia’s ongoing aggression echoes this cruelty.

“This is one of the most difficult moments in our history,”Zelensky said in a video. “Currently, the pressure on Ukraine is one of the hardest. Ukraine may now face a very difficult choice, either losing its dignity or the risk of losing a key partner.”

Good morning Fediverse 😡

russia launched a mass missile/drone attack on western #Ukraine (Nov 19, 2025), causing emergency power outages, fires in Lviv, and residential building damage in Ternopil.

Target: energy infrastructure

We have been without electricity since this morning. The heating, refrigerator, and internet are powered by my backup power sources.

THE NEW BIRD FLIES!

Ukraine has increased its inventory of the Ukrainian produced Flamingo cruise missile.

The missile has a larger payload than a Tomahawk, flies faster, and can cause more damage according to weapons experts.

#Finland president urges #Europe to hold its nerve as he warns no ceasefire likely soon in #Ukraine

A ceasefire in Ukraine is unlikely before spring & European #allies need to keep up support despite a #corruption scandal that has engulfed Kyiv, President Alexander #Stubb of Finland told AP.

Europe, meanwhile, will require ‘’sisu,’’ a Finnish word meaning endurance, resilience & grit, to get through the winter months, as #Russia continues its hybrid attacks & info war.
