Geopolitics, history and culture; but mostly focuses my online time on the RU invasion of Ukraine due to its extreme importance. A Norwegian Social Democrat.

Luckily Zelenskyy has a good alibi! He’s currently in Syria meeting with…. Oh. Hmmmm

Just spoke with President @predsednikrs. Serbian authorities have found a powerful explosive device, along with the equipment needed to detonate it, at critical gas infrastructure linking Serbia and Hungary. The investigation is ongoing. I have convened an emergency defence council for this afternoon.

Sikorski: Before Russian invasion, I warned group of Ukrainian MPs in Munich: “War starts next week.” I told them that if Ukraine inflicted around 100,000 losses on Russia, it would surrender. Russia suffered much greater losses. Today’s Russia is much more repressive than late Soviet Union. In the 1980s, the USSR, with larger population, lost tens of thousands in Afghanistan, and soldiers’ mothers’ committees were tolerated. In Putin’s Russia, such dissent is crushed. That’s why the war continues.

@Robert_E_Kelly Yeah, many of us hoped this would be the case after his first term but no self reflection materialised. And today it is much, much worse, still no self reflection.

Post-Trump, a cottage industry of research will arise to explain how America's ostensibly most pious believers fell for someone so obviously unchurched and unobvservant America's evangelicals will never be taken seriously again after selling out like this. I hope it was worth it

“Many people don’t know about the upbringing of President Trump. He went sometimes three times a week to Saturday and Sunday school.” - Pastor Paula White-Cain falsely claims that POTUS was a precocious student of the Bible as a child. @Acyn (2026)

@ENaughtius @ShaunPinnerUA I am not interested in hearing the babble of an obviously mentally ill man with no relevant expertise. Have a better day, take care of your mental health and try not to be a public pest before you call your doctor.

“This war no longer resembles 2022. Back then, large mechanised pushes defined the battlefield, Russia initially held air superiority and made rapid gains. Today, the war is about disruption, dismantling the enemy’s ability to even reach the fight, and now into a 5th year, Russia has lost over 50% of the territory it initially seized in 2022, has largely lost dominance of the Black Sea, and has suffered over 1.2 million casualties in a war that was meant to last weeks.” My article for LLB

@iyad_elbaghdadi While this sounds nice and very idealistic and I would like to embrace it to heart, it does not sound convincing as an intellectual argument. Could you please explain what exactly you mean ? In history, there are countless tales of liberation of some subjugated people, never all

@ENaughtius @ShaunPinnerUA By using the Kremlin's own terminology of a Special Military Operation unironically and/or without qualifiers, you discredited every other word in your sentence, and no one with above average information literacy and/or IQ can take a word you write seriously.

@ShaunPinnerUA Right after the initial invasion of this special operation Russia positioned itself to defend this very precise 1783 border of the annexed Crimean Khanate which they present in their peace condition. You're ignoring that because you're crazy and you want war.

There are so many low-information human beings in the West, so Western Tankie nr. 1 will always have an audience no mattter how outlandish his propaganda is. Teaching information literacy from a young age, is the only solution to that, sadly.

1/3 Ukrainian journalist @AndyTsaplienko published what’s claimed to be a Russian damage assessment for Primorsk and Ust-Luga strikes (& Unecha, which I haven’t seen evidence of). It says this 'Pantsir' shot down 1 of 19 Ukrainian drones aimed at Primorsk on March 23.

@planet So, after cross-examining the images, I guess it’s fair to say that at least six tanks were burning at the Primorsk port oil depot. And of course, there is a 'Pantsir' SHORAD system right on the premises 🙂(there’s also one near Ust-Luga port). x.com/Lucky13Aquariu…

❗️Russian forces are distributing leaflets in Nikopol threatening a rapid crossing of the Dnipro River and stating that the city will be under attack within two weeks, with all vehicles considered targets. Nikopol is increasing security measures, closing markets, and advising residents to avoid open areas. #Ukraine

Details about the rescue op for the U.S. Weapon Systems Officer, via a U.S. military official: "The mountain top area on the left is where the WSO was hiding (he ejected 5ish miles northwest of there). The right area is the makeshift landing strip where they landed 2 C-130s and had 4 MH-6 Little Birds. "One Little Bird flew to that mountain top area and rescued the WSO and brought him back to the landing strip. And of course the two C-130s' nose gears got stuck in the dirt. So after a few hours they had to bring in three AFSOC Dash-8s to fly out the rescued WSO and the 100 or so personnel involved in the op." 1/2
