The picture of resiliance and hope!
During a power outage from the Russian attacks, an elderly lady with a flashlight selects seeds from a catalog to order them via post and plant in the spring.

"That's all you need to know about faith in the future," the writing on the video says.

Never believe russia.
OTD in 1999 the OSCE conference was in Istanbul. Russia promised to remove our troops from Moldova & Georgia by end of 2002.

We lied. But Ukraine should believe Russia’s promises & negotiate…

How many russian artists, writers, dancers, intellectuals joined the russian war effort? Ukrainian defenders come from every walk of life: university professors, ballet dancers, opera singers, engineers, poets, etc. Meanwhile russia uses mercenaires, prison inmates and its poor rural ethnic peoples.
Friends,

In the comments to my post about a Russian ballerina Maria Khoreva performing in Barcelona there are a lot of statements that the ballerina cannot do anything on her own, that her job is art, not fighting against the Kremlin's regime.

OTD in 1989, the Berlin Wall didn’t fall, the East German government unveiled a “reform package”.

Which until the beginning of the goodwill gestures was the best Tankie cope of all time.

russian FSB falsely accused four Crimean #Tatar women—Esma Nimetulayeva (mother of five), Fevziye Osmanova, Elviza Alieva, and Nasiba Saidova of terrorism, using baseless claims and propaganda.

No surprise here as being a « man of the cloth » in russia means you’ve been trained by the FSB (KGB).

This is a very important step, for both Ukraine & Europe👇

“Cooperation with JEF can be viewed as a political signal that Ukraine is becoming a future element of Europe’s new security architecture. The country moves from being a recipient of support to a participant shaping rules and capabilities.”

Zohran's success will hinge equally on what he is ABLE to do and how effectively he messages to voters when the federal govt of wealthy interests / police, etc in NYC deliberately sabotage things.

we've seen this shit in oregon with elites lining up to torpedo progressive measures
The full weight of western capitalism is about to laser focus on NYC. The robber barons failed to win and will panic. They will sabotage NYC because the system cannot allow Mamdani's term to be successful. They cannot allow people to believe things can be better. Your job now is to hold the line.

“I was at home drinking, woke up the next morning, still drunk, and went to enlist,” he recalled
