Any day is a good day to remember writer & activist Victoria Amelina. She talks about russian occupation, the murder of Volodymyr Vakulenko by russians, & also, eerily, about dying. She was killed months later by a russian missile strike in Kramatorsk. (By Catalina Gómez Ángel)

A brave Polish man, Filip Antosiak, died while defending Ukraine near Pokrovsk. According to his parents "After graduating from Cambridge, he planned to join the British army and then go to officer training school in London. But he went to Ukraine". 19 years old.
Hero 🇵🇱 🇺🇦.

Joining the Yunarmiya is mandatory for children & youths in occupied territories. He should be a target for the SBU.

And of course, the russian Orthodox church is more than happy to be in contact with children... and help with the brainwashing.

Now he leads the powerful Yunarmiya (imagine the hit.lerjugend but with russians) which teaches Ukrainian children in occupied territories "russian values."

Awarded the title of Hero of the Russian Federation in September 20, 2022, by putin.

He commanded the airborne assault platoon of the 382nd separate battalion of the 810th separate guards marine brigade of the Black Sea Fleet coastal forces that was tasked with "clearing" Mariupol of enemies, that is, executing civilians & soldiers that surrendered

So who is Golovin Vladislav Nikolaevich?
He is the leader of Yunarmiya (Юнармия) a pro-russian youth movement that operates in russia and also in occupied territories. He is in charge of implementing programs to russify Ukrainian children. He is also a war criminal... ➡️

"The old spycraft dilemma: Once you catch a spy, should you intervene to stop their mission? Or silently follow them, to harvest more secrets?"
On russian spy Pavel Rubtsov. The guy thought russia was going to agree to trade him for Navalny. Dovboyob.

As usual, thanks to journalists.
"After the investigation was made public, the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Oleksandr Syrsky, ordered an inspection and suspended the commander of the military unit, Oleh Poberezhnyuk, for the duration of the inspection."

The russo-asian hordes keep advancing in the Donetsk region & getting dangerously closer to the border with the Dnipropetrovsk region. Yet, the front is far from collapsing. The AFU keeps resisting.

During the Maidan, groups like the Right Sector, along with "regular" maidanists, supported the revolution & resisted all the violence from the state. What lies ahead for Georgians is very difficult.

That protesters didn't leave the square drove Yanukovych & putin mad & triggered the end. I know its easier said than done. But without occupying a square, a street or a government building it is very difficult to mantain the pressure on the Georgian government.

Seeing the situation in Georgia, i can see why the Maidan in Ukraine was so successful. It was very well organized on all levels. And, more importantly, the Ukrainians built a base... in the middle of the city, barricaded the main streets & the police was not allowed inside ➡️

There is the argument that the Maidan revolution overthrew a democratically elected government (sort of, there was electoral fraud). But when Yanukovych gave the order to repressive forces to shøøt protesters, his legitimacy ended. The Maidan revolution was necessary & justified.
December 3, 2024 at 10:36 PM
Yanukovych used the police, the Berkut (special police force) & "titushky" (thugs employed by the security services) as repressive forces. In this video from Jan 2014, filmed by one of the thugs, they can be seen attacking maidanists. Similar of what we see now in Georgia

Nord Stream 2 was a legitimate target. Maybe he "gave" advice for the operation, or recommended someone... (he won't admit it, obviously).

It is a shame that the Spanish government keeps one of its Patriots in Turkey, protecting the sultan's a.s.s (from what? Kurdish air force?) when it should be in Ukraine. The Ukrainian government is asking for more air defenses to protect cities, not for Leopards.

Lviv, 1960's. One of the countless idiotic Soviet military parades to show off rockets & the "peaceful" intentions of the USSR. (Lenin Avenue then, Svobody Avenue now). On the far left, the building of the Galicyjska Kasa Oszczędności (Galician Savings Bank).
