The level of hype about today's phone call between Trump and Putin is ridiculous. They will discuss all kinds of concessions that they think Ukraine should make, and the 30 days unconditional ceasefire that Ukraine has actually offered will almost certainly not be on the agenda.

On the day of shame where the 🇺🇸 joined the gang of dictatorships and military juntas at the 🇺🇳, the 🇵🇱 FM @radek-sikorski.bsky.social spells out the realities for everyone to hear. Watch, like and share for Heaven's sake! www.youtube.com/watch?v=p4JF...

Europe can fairly easily replace American military support for Ukraine, but it will require massive investments to replace U.S. in NATO.
Interesting assessments from @kiel.institute.

everyone here talking about microplastics in our environment and our bodies but what about GUIDs?? they are EVERYWHERE and NO ONE is talking about reusing or recycling them

March 2022 Marco Rubio might have been surprised to learn that a leading figure helping Russia try to achieve its war aims is February 2025 Marco Rubio.

Mr. Trumps statements that Russia should get to keep the territory, they have fought for is a statement that will live in infamy.

Won’t let more Munich or Minsk agreements happen. Slava Ukraine!

Rusland vil sandsynligvis være mere villig til at føre "krig mod...europæiske NATO-lande, hvis Rusland opfatter NATO som militært svækket eller politisk splittet. Dette gælder særligt, hvis Rusland vurderer, at USA ikke kan eller vil støtte de europæiske NATO-lande"👉 www.fe-ddis.dk/globalassets...

Man kan ikke møde hæmningsløshed med venlighed og forståelse. Det er en forkert analyse. Vi må sluge den bitte lille, at vi ikke længere kan regne med Amerika. Og så må vi finde partnere vi kan regne med. UK. Canada. Japan. Sydkorea. NZ/Australien. Mexico. Den vej.

Det fylder i danske nyhedskanaler, at en amerikansk forsikringsdirektør er blevet myrdet i New York, og at man har fundet gerningsmanden. Vores fokus på amerikanske forhold er efterhånden usund. Og det siger jeg 🤯

The effect of ATACMS will come down to area, quantity and type. If it is just the cluster munitions variant in the area around Kursk, I think it's a mistake to interpret it as a significant policy change for Ukraine. In that case it is rather a limited response to the North Koreans.
