Zelensky: Everybody understands that because of the war in the Middle East, prices are rising. They're increasing because of the war in the Middle East, the blocking of the Strait of Hormuz. Everybody understands it. If we want to speak with people fairly, if we want to be clear, if we want to speak with our nations openly, people have to hear reality. Don't play games with people.

The exhibition’s axis is a unique oval two-poled Turkish tent, the only one of its kind in Europe, dating to the first half of the 17th century, which is believed to have belonged to the Ottoman Empire’s grand vizier Kara Mustafa.

Dans l’ancienne chambre de Madame Adélaïde devenue une bibliothèque, sur un petit bureau d’acajou placé dans l’embrasure d’une fenêtre, Louis XVI y travaille aux affaires de l’Etat, lit des rapports, prépare les programmes de futures chasses… Il y range divers ouvrages, qu’il préfère, en histoire, sciences et aussi des gazettes anglaises et françaises qu’il lit. #histoire #versailles

Typical Jew with typical opinion. Shame and disgusting!
Kasparov: Ukraine is under the heaviest bombardment one can imagine. On CNN you see Gaza, Gaza, Gaza. If Israel did to Gaza for 24 hours what Putin does to Ukraine, there would be no Gaza. Russia's bombing of Ukraine is much worse than carpet bombing. 1/

if you think the International Criminal Court is a threat to you... you might just be a war criminal
Today, the Trump Administration is sanctioning the ICC. This action should encourage our Allies within the Court to work for solutions to end this threat to U.S. sovereignty forever.

We are living in a double standards world.
Trump allows Russia to supply millions of tons of diesel to the U.S. In the past 48 hours, Russia murdered over 50 civilians in Ukraine, plunged Kyiv into near-total darkness, and now Trump rewards Russia with additional funds to continue the killings. Stupid and evil.

The US is now directly buying diesel from Russia while sanctioning India for doing the same. In the meantime Estonia, Poland, Finland and Czechia I guess applaud it in the name of transatlantic values
