If there’s just one Ukraine-related article that I could make every person in Europe read in 2025, this has to be Maksym Butkevych’s interview:

This post of mine is getting tonnes of support back on X, but I’m not sure if it’s because of Ukraine activism or Hugh Grant.

Something’s changing on the maps of Europe right now.

It’s subtle change that only a trained eye can see.

But as a Ukrainian, I never had the privilege of not noticing what the map of Europe looked like in every book or movie. Because on too many of those maps, Ukraine wasn’t included.

So much of “mysterious Russian soul” is about the desperate need to be treated like the big boys and sit at the table with the US while knowing deep down that they don’t have anything but nukes to be a global superpower.

So Russians bully and invade to get attention and respect of the big guys.

Ah, they managed to recreate even the infamous “throwing Russian propaganda at Ukrainians” feature of Twitter here 🙃
