Ich wünschte, dieses Interview mit dem Menschenrechtsaktivisten Maksym Butkevych würden vor allem jene lesen, die glauben, ein Einfrieren des Krieges in der Ukraine würde Frieden bringen. Ich wünschte, sie würden Wahrheit und Liebe statt Lüge und Hass realistisch anerkennen (FAZ, 2.1.26)

For Putinverstehers, stability means borders stop moving; never mind the torture, child abduction, or rape as policy
🇺🇦 must make “difficult concessions” for peace, they say. But if aggression pays, war expands.

Heute ist ein guter Tag, um etwas für die Ukraine zu tun: Als Co-Präsidentin der @de-ua-gesellschaft.bsky.social bin ich überwältigt davon, wie viele Spenden wir schon für @bravery-ev.bsky.social sammeln konnten. Das erste Evakuierungsfahrzeug ist bereits reserviert, jetzt für das zweite spenden!

Putin – ein Philanthrop und Freund der Ukraine? So in etwa klingt es, wenn Trump über den russischen Diktator spricht. Die Brutalität der russischen Kriegsführung, die unzähligen russischen Kriegsverbrechen? Darüber verliert der US-Präsident kein Wort. Realitätsfremd.

Europe’s mistake was, in simple terms, believing that once you reach the higher levels of Maslow’s hierarchy of needs, you can focus on them and neglect the lower levels.
We learned the hard way during COVID and when Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine

Wie kann es sein, dass wir als Europäer einen Mann, der persönlich von Putin ausgesucht wurde (WSJ), als Unterhändler akzeptieren, der eine neue Ordnung auf UNSEREM KONTINENT ausbaldowert?

Sorry, Ukraine, we’ve treated you shamefully
After saying we’d back you for as long as it took, we were cowed by Putin and then grew tired
