🇪🇺🇺🇲 G7 nations emphasised on Friday the need for robust "security arrangements" to ensure a ceasefire between Ukraine and #Russia, warning Moscow to follow Kyiv in agreeing a ceasefire or face further sanctions, according to a final draft statement.

Tom Mulcair on CTV News noted that Russia used to have propaganda state news called Pravda which translates to Truth, and Trump has Truth Social to spew his propaganda.

I'm speechless after this back and forth with the #intel sharing, #militaryaid, #ceasefire proposals, etc.

Which is why I wanna hear from you - how do you see the situation?

Trump is fine with that

Bloomberg:

Western security officials say #Putin has no intention of compromising on demands over land, peacekeepers and #Ukraine’s neutrality in any peace talks. #Russia


#Russia

Color me shocked that war criminal #Putin's Russia continues being a terror state:

“Keith Kellogg, the White House’s special envoy for Ukraine and Russia, characterised the US decision to cut off intelligence sharing and military aid to Kyiv as like beating a farm animal with a piece of wood.

‘I think the best way I can describe it is sort of like hitting a mule with a two-by-four across the nose’”

Despicable. How dare they treat white Europeans the exact same way they (and we) have always treated Brown and Black people? What are we, fucking Palestinians?

Something about panthers. Something about faces.

"This is a tragedy for the free world, but above all, it is tragedy for the United States. Trump’s message is that being his ally serves no purpose, as he will not defend you, he will impose higher tariffs on you than on his enemies, and he will threaten to seize your territories while supporting the dictators who invade you. ...

Never in history has a president of the United States surrendered to an enemy."

"Europe is at a critical turning point in its history. The American shield is slipping away, Ukraine risks being abandoned, and Russia is being strengthened. Washington has become the Court of Nero: an incendiary emperor, submissive courtiers, and a buffoon on ketamine tasked with purging the civil service."

"There's this kind of Freudian denial that, ‘Okay, but it couldn't really be that bad. In the end, it's the United States, they couldn't actually go that far, we couldn't really switch sides. Your President couldn't really be working for Putin’. I said, ‘No, you absolutely cannot trust us. It has to be over. You have to take that in, that these are not people you can work with, either rationally or cynically.'"

"This idea of America – despite all our problems and our hypocrisy and our racism and our violence – that it was still somehow the world's deepest liberal democracy and the land of the free and the home of the brave, and everything that Soviet communism was not – will, in the end, be the rescuer and guarantor of freedom. I feel like the last vestiges of that are finally dissolving."

"The reason why the United States will likely never again be considered the true leader of the free world, at least not in our lifetimes, is a matter of trust. Nobody trusts us anymore, and with good reason. We are the nation that gifted Trump with the presidency of the United States twice. And the second time, he actually won the popular vote as well as the Electoral College."

The United States is helping #russia kill #Ukrainians: "As a result of this pause [in U.S. #intelligence sharing with #Ukraine], there are hundreds of dead Ukrainians.

Ukrainians have lost the ability to detect the approach of Russian #bombers and other #warplanes as they take off inside Russia. As a result, Ukraine has less time to warn civilians and #military personnel about the risk of an approaching airstrike or missile."

Four hundred and nineteen Twitter accounts that posted on Brexit were localized to Russia’s Internet Research Agency… About a third of the discussion of Brexit on Twitter was generated by bots—and more than 90% of the bots tweeting political material were not located in the United Kingdom. Britons…had no idea at the time…that the bots were part of a Russian foreign policy to weaken their country. The margin of the vote was 52% for leaving and 48% for staying. … Brexit was a triumph for Russian foreign policy, and a sign that a cyber campaign directed from Moscow could change reality.

”The American antisemitism now merges with the Russian antisemitism and reinforces it. … And the Russian approval for the American behavior…could hardly have been more explicit. A spokesman for Putin expressed his pleasure that policies were aligning. … And so the United States is now aiding the fascist invasion, and legitimating the attempt at fascist regime change.”

”The Russian regime that ordered the invasion [of Ukraine] is itself obviously fascist, on any definition of fascism you care to choose.”

”Zelens'kyi was elected on a peace platform in 2019, but Putin did not want to talk to him, in part because he did not think that Zelens'kyi showed him enough deference.”

”This Russian regime perspective is implicitly (and sometimes explicitly) antisemitic. Russian propaganda treats Zelens'kyi as obsessed with money and as subhuman.”

”Russia's major war aim was fascist regime change, the overturning of a democratically-elected president in favor of some sort of collaborator. The premise is absurd: that Ukrainians do not really exist as a nation, and in fact would prefer a Russian. But it was also antisemitic: that it is unnatural that a Jew could hold an important office. Volodymyr Zelens'kyi, the Ukrainian president, is of Jewish origin.”

Trump pressurizes Ukraine to talk about peace, stops the supply of weapons and intelligence. Meanwhile NO pressure whatsoever is applied to Putin to stop attacking energy and civilian targets inside Ukraine. Please don't say Trump is on the side of NATO and Europe, it's simply not true.
#Trump #Ukraine #Russia #EU #Europe #NATO #geopolitics @geopolitics


#Russia responds to #Ukraine's call for a #truce in the air with a massive air #attack, around 200 #missiles and #drones targeting purely civilian targets all across the country.

With #Trump having cut off Ukraine's #airdefense shipments, #putin will now scale up missile attacks to bring about one of the worst massacres in human history.

This is all on #Americans now. You voted this guy in, and the #US will never live it down.

Reminder, Ukraine WAS the most pro-American nation in #Europe.


”Zelens'kyi ran for president in 2019 as the peace candidate, promising to negotiate with Putin to end what was then a war that had been ongoing for five years. Russia did not respond to these overtures, except with contempt, and then with the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.”

”The Russians keep committing war crimes every day. Yesterday Russia was attacking hospitals in Kharkiv.”
—Timothy Snyder, The War Trump Chooses
#russia #ukraine


”After yesterday's confrontation in the Oval Office, Trump made clear just how unstrategic the American approach had been. He claimed that the real problem had been that Zelens'kyi had wanted to speak about Putin. Russia, of course, is the aggressor. It does not make sense to demand that the country under attack cease to defend itself, and to pretend that this in itself will bring peace.”
—Timothy Snyder, The War Trump Chooses
#trump #putin #zelenskyy #zelensky #usa #russia #ukraine


”Had the United States under Trump been interested in peace in Ukraine, American power would have been engaged to deter Russia from continuing the war. There was never any meaningful sign of a willingness to do this… On the contrary, the United States lifted Russia from its international isolation and accepted in advance most Russian demands. But even had that not been the case, the American position would have been illogical.”
—Timothy Snyder, The War Trump Chooses
#trump #usa #russia #ukraine


”The courage of Ukrainians made possible an American and European policy to hold back Russian aggression. That same Zelens'kyi, the man who was brave enough to stay and lead his country when the Russians were approaching the capital and the assassination squads were already there, was yesterday made the subject of a public attempt at humiliation by Americans.”
