Andrius Kubilius, the European Commissioner for Defence Industry and Space:

“There are 450 million Europeans. We should not be crying out for 340 million Americans to defend us against 140 million Russians, who are not even able to defeat 38 million Ukrainians.

After the Oval Office disaster, let’s remember :

Europe is wealthy,

Europe is strong,

If it wants to, Europe can deal with this.

Demand EU leaders take action! How? 👇

The European Union's top diplomat, Kaja Kallas, has warned that the discussion in Europe about the possible deployment of peacekeeping forces in Ukraine risks falling into a "Russian trap."

"They don't want peace," she said.

Europe urgently needs its own plan of action concerning Ukraine and our security, or else other global players will decide about our future. Not necessarily in line with our own interest. This plan must be prepared now. There’s no time to lose.

If G*d sent Trump it was as a one man locust.
Photo supplied by friend on here … what an utter bastard.
I venture to say he was not ‘saved by G*d’ so much as installed by Satan

The gar-right is trying to make the 'Roman salute' socially acceptable trolling their opponents or, in Elmo’s case, testing his sociopathic boundaries.

However, the ACC's statement is an excellent summary of why no one should tolerate this gesture being used as a joke or for any other reason.

Five years on: stuck. Latest post on my Brexit & Beyond Blog on how the latest news (the 'wobble', PEM, AI, regulatory capacity, Trump etc) shows there's still no post-Brexit strategy & perhaps none is possible - but UK is still not ready to admit it: chrisgreybrexitblog.blogspot.com/2025/01/five...

Ukraine’s military prowess backed by firm European support leaves little room for a Trump negotiated white flag. Putin can’t accept anything less. Logical conclusion (even for Trump) Ukraine wins, war ends. Putin and Russian imperialism end up on the scrap heap of history. How sad, never mind.
This is another excellent #Ukraine update from Stefan, covering European support to Ukraine, Russian losses and the status of the strategic strike campaigns of both sides.
