I am deeply shocked by the distressing images from the shooting at the Hanukkah celebrations at Bondi Beach in Australia.

This appalling act of violence against the Jewish community must be unequivocally condemned. (1/2)

Just sent out my free weekend update. Was quite a week in the land war, started with great doom for Ukraine and ended with the Ukrainians pushing the Russians away from Kupyansk and advancing in a week twice as much as the Russians advanced in 4 months. open.substack.com/pub/phillips...

I welcome the release of Ales Bialiatski, Maria Kalesnikava, Maksim Znak and others from Belarusian prisons.

I share the joy of their families and friends.
Credit goes to the US for making this possible.

Now, all those who remain unjustly detained must be released.

I welcome the release of political prisoners in Belarus, including Ales Bialiatski, Maria Kalesnikava & EU nationals.

This development must strengthen our resolve.

The resolve to keep fighting for all remaining prisoners behind bars in Belarus because they had the courage to speak truth to power.

Just sent out this piece. The whole idea that Trump's sanctions on Russian oil were meant to hurt Putin is collapsing on all fronts. Indian and Chinese purchases are up and there are no secondary sanctions to be found. open.substack.com/pub/phillips...
