Seit vielen Monaten hetzt die georgische Führung gegen EU, 🇩🇪 & auch den deutschen Botschafter persönlich. @aussenminister.diplo.de hat daher entschieden, Bo. Fischer zu Konsultationen zurückzurufen, um über das weitere Vorgehen zu beraten. Morgen befasst sich der EU-Außenrat mit #Georgien.

Russische #Drohnen über #Polen.
Vor drei Wochen wurden in #Kyjiw die EU-Delegation und das British Council getroffen.
Das sind keine Zufälle. #Russland fühlt sich durch #Trump, #Xi und Co. ermutigt, #Europa offen anzugreifen.
Deshalb jetzt alle Unterstützung für die #Ukraine.

Wir müssen mit Russland reden – schön wär’s!
Im Ostcast zeigen @alicebota.bsky.social und @michaelthumann.bsky.social auf, wie der Dialog zwischen Deutschen und Russen systematisch zerstört wird – und zwar schon seit 2012. Und zwar von Wladimir Putin, einst gepriesen als „der Deutsche im Kreml“.

The pro-European, anti-Russian protests have varied in size—sometimes more crowded, sometimes less—but for 136 days now, not a single day has passed without them.

DAY 100 of continuous protests in Georgia!
The crisis will only get worse without new, free and fair elections, and the release of the regime prisoners.
I came rather late, regretfully, and many were already leaving. #GeorgiaProtests

"NATO is not the thing that Russia is afraid of. Russia is afraid of democracy expanding to Russia. Why are we in NATO? It is because we are afraid of Russia. And the only thing that really works – the only security guarantee that works – is NATO's umbrella,"

NEW: UK PM Keir Starmer writes in The Daily Telegraph, MONDAY.
The UK is willing to put troops on the ground in Ukraine as a security guarantee.
A huge move. It could trigger a European-wide military deployment.

🇬🇪 TERROR IN GEORGIA!
Georgian Dream and Bidzina Ivanishvili still rely on extreme violence to eliminate their ‘problem.’
They will never back down as long as the UK, EU member states, and the US refuse to impose individual sanctions on their power structure and propaganda apparatus.
