A UA withdrawal from Donetsk – which ISW assesses would be a major strategic military and political concession – without a full ceasefire that extends to long-range strikes and all frontline activity would pose major risks to both withdrawing UA forces and UA forces in rear areas in Kharkiv Obl. ⬇️

"What the f*ck is wrong with Russia?" is a question we keep asking ourselves here in Ukraine. How does a nation justify brutally invading its neighbor? How does a government convince its people that imperial conquest and war crimes are acceptable in the 21st century?

Wrote about my feelings about Ethereum a decade later. Not entirely happy with where the crypto space has gone in general. We need more cypherpunk and we need people to just, be better.

Basically, this is a call for genocide. Disgusting!

I wonder, what some people expect from a peace plan with Russia? Russia won't stop.

It’s night in Ukraine. our usual wartime curfew, but just listen to how people are celebrating Usyk’s victory, each from their own home. This is how most apartment buildings in Ukraine sound tonight.

Keine Illusionen über Putin. Die @anneapplebaum.bsky.social im Interview. www.diepresse.com/19912658
Wir hätten die Ukraine bewaffnen können. Wäre sie vor zehn Jahren Mitglied der Nato gewesen, gäbe es keinen Krieg. Krieg mit Russland vermeiden Sie durch Abschreckung, indem Sie klarmachen, dass der Preis einer Invasion zu hoch ist. Warum sind die Russen nicht in Lettland einmarschiert? Weil Lettland zur Nato gehört. Ich glaube immer noch, dass der Krieg im ersten Jahr hätte gewonnen werden können. Die Ukraine hätte genug Territorium zurückerobern können, um die Russen davon zu überzeugen, die Kämpfe einzustellen. Aber wir haben nicht genug getan. Und ich glaube immer noch, dass Europa nicht ganz verstanden hat, was nötig ist, um Russland zu stoppen.

Das chinesische Militär hat mit einem Lasereinsatz ein deutsches Flugzeug in der EU-Operation #ASPIDES ins Visier genommen. Die Gefährdung von deutschem Personal & Störung des Einsatzes sind vollkommen inakzeptabel. Der chinesische Botschafter wurde dazu heute ins AA einbestellt.
