@Tatarigami_UA @JulianRoepcke @UNOCHA @OCHA_Ukraine They certainly seem to be watching from the corner with a hard-on rather than doing anything to stop it

@JulianRoepcke @UNOCHA @OCHA_Ukraine It’s like telling a serial cuck that his wife is cheating. I think they already know.

Maybe it’s time to admit the Russian army deliberately attacked you with fiber optic guided kamikaze drones, @UNOCHA / @OCHA_Ukraine?!

This is Maria, she was only 15 years old.🕯💔 Killed by a russian missile strike on a Kyiv residential building on May 14. Witnesses report that Maria’s mother, Natalia, is now in the hospital. Her father and grandmother died alongside Maria under the rubble of their own home.

Today, 15 May, has been declared a national day of mourning in Ukraine. Australia’s flag flies at half mast in honour of the victims who lost their lives after Russia’s large scale attacks. Russia’s strikes on Ukrainian cities continue today as families mourn their loved ones.

I've met with some of the worst guys on Earth - but Xi Jinping is without a doubt the coldest and most ruthless leader I've encountered. We should be under no illusions about his malign intentions toward the US or any power that challenges him on the world stage.

SIKORSKI: I hope we're not back to silly discussions we had at the beginning of the war: “Oh my God, if we give Ukraine tanks, if we give them jets, Putin will escalate.” Do you really believe there is anything Putin would not do to win? If he could escalate, he would escalate.

He’s selling out America, and anyone still clinging to this administration is betraying their own kids’ future for the sake of ego and tribal loyalty. Russia became a vassal state of China because it had no real alternatives left. Trump is choosing that path for the United States voluntarily. Congratulations.

@OCHA_Ukraine @UN @UNOCHA @UNReliefChief @matzschmale @UN_News_Centre You “do not know who attacked you?” The hypocrisy is remarkable. I have been reporting from this area for years and I know some of these people in your video. They sure could tell you who attacks there around the clock. Russians kill and destroy Kherson. Shame on you.

UN refuses to say whose drones continue to attack UN convoy vehicles, despite 100000% proof positive that it's ALWAYS Russia.

To nie jest 'incydent chuligański'. To jest zwykłe, zwierzęce skurwysyństwo. 16-letni Artem z Ukrainy dostał po głowie tak, że ma pękniętą czaszkę i zmasakrowaną twarz. Jego kumpla próbowali zrzucić z mostu Świętokrzyskiego prosto do Wisły. Kopali ich, gazowali, wyzywali 'wypierdalaj do Ukrainy'. Grupą na trzech nastolatków. Bohaterowie jebani na hulajnogach. To nie 'młodzież', to nie 'frustracja'. To gnój, który wyrósł w głowach części polskich dzieciaków – karmiony memami, TikTokiem, piwem i poczuciem, że jak ktoś mówi po ukraińsku, to można go zabić dla funu. Zatrzymali pięciu – od 15 do 18 lat. Dobrze. Niech dostaną maksimum. Żadnych 'nieletni, zrozumieć kontekst, trudna sytuacja rodzinna'. Jak ktoś w wieku 16-17 lat kopie leżącego w głowę i próbuje zrzucić człowieka z mostu – to już jest dorosły drapieżnik i powinien odpowiadać jak dorosły. Polska przyjmuje Ukraińców od 3 lat. Miliony ludzi, którzy uciekli przed rosyjskim gównem. A my w zamian wydajemy takich 'patriotów', którzy biją dzieci za to, że są Ukraińcami. To hańba. Czysta, obrzydliwa hańba dla tych sprawców, dla ich rodziców i dla każdego, kto teraz będzie ich bronił 'bo Ukraina też...'. Nie ma 'obu stron'. Jest banda polskich zwyrodnialców, którzy powinni zgnić w poprawczaku albo w pierdlu. Koniec i kropka.”

If NATO is lucky, they can join Ukraine. Garry Kasparov

While the UN tries to avoid to point at the obvious culprit of the strike against their convoy in Kherson, Ukraine, Russians released FPV footage of that particular strike, making absolutely clear this wasn’t some kind of accident, but a deliberate terrorist strike, which civilians in Kherson have to endure on a daily base.

💊 Lavrov calling President Zelenskyy a “Führer” and Germany a supporter of Nazism is the Kremlin’s cheapest propaganda reflex. Russia bombs Ukrainian cities, kills children, abducts civilians, and then tries to cosplay as an anti-fascist power. The country committing imperial war crimes in Europe has no moral right to lecture anyone about history.

Applebaum: Putin’s real fear is a Maidan-style street revolution — people against corruption, demanding democracy and Europe. Liberal-democratic language is explosive inside Russia. That is why he needed to crush Ukraine’s democracy movement. 1/

And here’s another clip of Varoufakis going with the preposterous lie that “the Russian language was banned in Ukraine in 2014”. How hard is it to fact-check this stuff, seriously? Or just ask Ukrainians...?

I would like to hear from all Trump apologists who spent years telling me about the wisdom of throwing Ukraine under the bus in order to get Russia away from China so we can focus on China, and how throwing Taiwan under the bus is part of the same grand strategy of dealing with China.

- Anne Applebaum: "Steve Witkoff has no experience with Russia or diplomacy. I fear he imagines a US-Russia pact where he, his son, Trump's family or their circle benefit personally. It's disturbing that American foreign policy conducted not for the US, allies or world peace, but for private interests. Putin knows Trump is vulnerable to such deals ... that's why he keeps suggesting them. Witkoff and Trump's entourage behave like Russians: capture the state, use it for personal wealth."

Russian drone strikes a clearly marked UN aid vehicle in Kherson.

Kremlin-linked disinformation network Matryoshka began publishing videos on Twitter claiming Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan could start a war with Russia, the Bot Blocker project reports. At least 20 fake clips appeared, including fabricated ISW reports, fake French media covers and videos using actors from The Office paid via Cameo with AI voices. Putin made similar claims comparing Armenia to Ukraine on May 9, less than a month before Armenian parliamentary elections.

Russia's Foreign Intelligence (SVR) warns Russians that Ukraine launched a program last year that's been purchasing big Russian Telegram channels, Ukraine finally doing to Russia what Russia has been doing to the world since 2005. Lets see how Russians like divide and conquer at home.

If you voted for Trump because you thought he would be tough on China, you got played like a little child. He and his billionaire friends are begging Beijing for business deals. The tough talk was just a scam for your vote
