⚡️🇺🇦 Key takeaways from President Zelenskyy’s remarks at the World Economic Forum in Davos: ▪ “Last year in Davos, I ended my speech by saying: Europe must know how to defend itself. A year has passed — and nothing has changed.” ▪ He said there has still been no progress on establishing a special tribunal for Russia’s aggression against Ukraine — an initiative first announced in summer 2025. ▪ Ukraine's President urged Europe to seize Russian oil for Europe’s benefit, citing the U.S. seizure of Venezuelan oil as an example. ▪ Zelenskyy said Ukraine could destroy Russian ships near Greenland. ▪ He added that sending “30–40 soldiers” is not a serious signal to either Putin or China, stressing Europe needs unified armed forces capable of “real protection.” ▪ “Russia wouldn’t be able to build ballistic or cruise missiles without critical components supplied from other countries. And it’s not only China. Too often people hide behind the excuse that only China helps Russia. Yes, China helps – but not only China… Europe stays silent, America stays silent, and Putin keeps producing missiles.”

15 months ago I met Meltem at a VCs wedding in Turkey. A couple of weeks ago she thought we were getting dinner with an LP of ours… She even asked for a briefing on the way. Instead she became my fiancée. #Engaged

SheFi didn’t grow because of ads, fancy marketing or KOLs. It grew because I: - replied to every DM - made decks until 1am - hand onboarded women - stayed overtime in class to answer questions - prioritized community, not clout - showed up consistently for years That’s how we got here.
