OTD in 2015 Russia began bombing Syria.
-we denied we'd do it
-we then did it
-we bombed lots of hospitals, shopping centers & schools to create refugees
-we said it would be WW3 if NATO got involved
-when NATO helped throw us out we just ran away
Sound familiar?

Summary of Trump’s speech to the UN today:
1. Your countries all suck.
2. None of you know what you are doing.
3. The US is better at everything.
4. All because of me.
5. I’m right about everything.
6. You should listen to me & do what I say.
7. And give me lots of awards.

My first reaction seeing Lavrov on US TV is why are they platforming his propaganda? But actually it turned out to be pretty useful because Americans get to hear their real position - all the despicably & intransigence - while Trump & Vance are claiming they are being reasonable.

🇫🇷 Macron: "We know what the lack of security guarantees means. It happened in Georgia in 2008, and it also happened in Crimea in 2014. There is complete certainty that if a peace agreement is concluded without security guarantees, Russia will never keep its word."

Putin's declaration of "brotherly love" for #Ukraine and what it looks like in reality.
Putin is a maniac and a sadist.
We know who we're dealing with.
Peace through force and ironclad security guarantees for Ukraine are needed. Putin's promises are worthless.

Today, we laid out our proposal to ban Russian gas imports by the end of 2027.
Europe has already cut its dependence drastically. Now, we’re turning off the tap for good.
Russia will no longer be able to use energy as a weapon against us.
