EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs Kaja Kallas:

Looking at President Xi standing alongside the leaders of Russia, Iran, and North Korea in Beijing today, these are not just anti-Western optics; this is a direct challenge to the international system built on rules.

Being able to drop a quarterly US GDP prediction by 5.1% from +2.3% to -2.8% in a single week is one of the most impressive economic developments in the history of the world.

Ukraine was not about to join NATO three years ago -on the contrary, it couldn't.
But they were opening the path to join EU.
That was the existential danger for Putin: a prosperous, democratic country just on his doorstep.
Just like Finland, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania.
And they know.
"NATO is not the thing that Russia is afraid of. Russia is afraid of democracy expanding to Russia. Why are we in NATO? Its because we are afraid of Russia. And the only thing that really works – the only security guarantee that works – is NATO's umbrella," Kaja Kallas said in an interview with AFP

The EU wasn’t formed to screw anyone. Quite the opposite. It was formed to maintain peace, to build respect among our nations, to create free and fair trade, and to strengthen our transatlantic friendship. As simple as that. 🇪🇺🇺🇸

"The reason Putin might finally be ready to negotiate seems to be remarkably simple: He wants to avoid a humiliating bankruptcy"

Why Putin is finally negotiating
Moscow could soon struggle to finance the war, and fiscal breathing room may well be what the Russian leader’s looking for.

He's talking about people like Gregg:
Gregg is a former Marine and Forest Service ranger. He's saved the lives of hikers dangling off a cliff or going through cardiac arrest, and he's bravely fought forest fires to save small rural towns.

100% of his salary is paid by WA state.

Elon fired him. Share his story.

Britain can provide Ukraine a nuclear umbrella and Putin will immediately withdraw from Ukraine.
The United States appears to be in violation of the Budapest Memorandum which disarmed Ukraine of nuclear weapons in exchange for security guarantees.
The agreement signed by the US in 1994 specifically prohibits economic coercion against Ukraine.

During his speech in the European Parliament, Kyiv Mayor Vitaliy Klychko said that "Ukrainians are now defending peace across Europe."

"The reason for this senseless war is that we Ukrainians want to be part of the European family. And the Russian Federation cannot accept this.

Dizem que não é realista aumentar a despesa em Defesa
Mas eu digo que não é realista ter um país:
1. Sem nenhum sistema de defesa aérea de médio ou longo alcance
2. Ter apenas duas esquadras de F16
3. Ter menos de 20 Leopard operacionais

A strong U.S. leader would issue an ultimatum to Russia, demanding the invaders withdraw from Ukraine or the U.S. will boost the defenders massively.

Trump is a weak figurehead, demanding Ukraine pay him billions of dollars worth of rare earths or the U.S. will withdraw support.
