Meanwhile, Trump's business partners courageously keep going to Moscow.
Anton Gerashchenko@Gerashchenko_en
More than 70 heads and representatives of foreign diplomatic missions visited the sites of recent Russian strikes on Kyiv. All of these courageous diplomats, heads, and journalists continue working in Kyiv under constant strikes for the sake of peace in our country. We thank Ukraine’s friends for their support and for standing with us.

Talking about ending a civilization is a threat of genocide.
Timothy Snyder@TimothyDSnyder
Some thoughts about the President of the United States speaking about ending a civilization. The president speaks genocide. Anyone who has been involved in that conversation or associated actions would be complicit. And so we too must speak. Not only about crimes, but about their legal punishment.

One of the joys of my (endless, understaffed, and underfunded) job are days like this, when you get the first copy of the full print run of a new book. This is a brilliant collection of poems by Iya #Kiva, a #Ukrainian poet of #Jewish origin from #Donetsk, from various periods, translated by the incomparable duo of Amelia Mukamel Glaser (who also wrote an introduction) and Yuliya Ilchuk, and edited by Grace Mahoney. Cover design is by Anya Styopina and book design is by Andrii Kravchuk—thank you for all the work and patience that went into creating this book as such a striking physical object!

This tweet is how the president of the US marked Juneteenth this year -- the anniversary of emancipation in the US. (Same president who just spent tens of millions of $ on his birthday parade.)

Hey @realDonaldTrump exactly which holiday do you have in mind? Hmmm?

MAGA, you were awfully quiet yesterday. Took you all night to figure out how to spin what we all saw—Felon47’s sad little birthday rally while the rest of America was doing the most patriotic thing: protesting. The world sees your weakness now. Good luck covering that up.

Zelensky: Trump criticizes me? If it brings us closer to ending the war, I’ll take it all in stride. He’s chosen his strategy. I’m not here to judge. 1/

In his Easter message, @ZelenskyyUa raises an existential question that many Ukrainians have had for years: “how can we not lose faith after everything we're going through?”
The answer is hope — something strong inside you that keeps you from giving up
