This cannot be for real. Complete American self-debasement before a mafioso dictator and a hostage-taker of Americans.
Witkoff to Putin: “You talk so much about my president, President Trump, being a humanitarian -- you are a humanitarian also, sir, and I salute that.”

The Chess Federation of Russia 🇷🇺 is organizing an open tournament in Crimea 🇺🇦, starting July 1. With Ukraine 🇺🇦 making progress in liberating Crimea, it might actually start out as a breach of the FIDE Charter, but end up being a legal event.

Внаслідок російського обстрілу, який відбувається зараз, вночі 15 червня, горить дах одного з найбільш святих місць християнського світу - Успенського собору Печерської лаври у Києві. Просимо про молитву за врятування святині від знищення. Черговий російський злочин проти людяності, проти історії, проти християнства. Що ще повинен зробити кремлівський антихрист, аби світ усвідомив, що слід рішуче діяти, аби російський терор проти України і самих принципів миру припинився? Пресвятая Богодице, зупини ірода!

The human rights activist, winner of Nobel Peace Prize Ales Bialatski addressing @LRSeimas: “Although some political prisoners were released, more than 900 people remain imprisoned by Lukashenka regime and repressions continue, ensuring fresh “human stock” for political bargain”.

The #Hungarian people have spoken powerfully in a historic election. It is a victory of democracy and of #Europe and a painful setback to authoritarians. Sooner or later they all will suffer a painful defeat. Congratulations to Péter Magyar and the people of 🇭🇺!

I've taught European history for 30 years. Americans have always asked me how the Holocaust was possible, how Germans could have enabled a madman reveling in mass murder to carry out his plans. Now we can see in real time how this is enabled; now we have front-row seats.

🚨 BREAKING: Incredible moment as Artemis II pilot Victor Glover shares the Gospel mere MOMENTS before reaching the back side of the Moon, losing communication with Earth "Christ said, in response to what was the greatest command, that it was to love God with all that you are." 🙏🏻 "And he also, being a great teacher, said the second is equal to it, and that is to love your neighbor as yourself." "And so, as we prepare to go out of radio communication, we're still going to feel your love from Earth, and to all of you down there on earth and around earth, we love you from the moon." ❤️

🇺🇦🇳🇴 MFA: Skomantas Urbonas, winner of Norway’s National Mathematics Competition, donated his entire prize of 15,000 kroner to support the Ukrainian military and healthcare system. 💬 “I’ve always heard that evil can only prevail when good people do nothing. That’s why I felt that this achievement would have greater meaning if it could contribute to Ukraine’s victory,” said Skomantas.

Another terrible night in Kyiv, just as the American delegation arrived in moscow for talks. A genuine effort for peace begins with ending the terror, not negotiating while cities burn. russia’s ability to wage this war and stir instability elsewhere must continue to be degraded.

Thank you, @sandumaiamd, for your strong words of solidarity at @LRSeimas! We share common history and we will always remember the courage and resolve of Moldovans, being the first to recognise the Independence of @Lithuania, while still under russian occupation.

Only yesterday in #Kharkiv we honored 🇺🇦 children killed by russia’s war. Less than a day later, a russian ballistic missile struck a residential building in the city, killing 2 more children. The world must not look away. russia must be held accountable.

Another painful loss for Ukrainian sports. Another child killed by Russia. On the night of March 7, a Russian missile struck a residential building, and one of the victims of the attack was Hordiy Udovychenko. He and his mother Olena were killed together. Young Hordiy played for the hockey team “Bilyi Bars” (White Leopard). Here is how the team responded to the death of the young athlete: “Hordiy was a sincere, kind, and open boy who loved hockey very much, as well as his team and training sessions. We remember his smile, his diligence on the ice, and the joy with which he came to every practice.” Ukraine experiences unspeakable tragedy every day, and every day it loses its future. Eternal memory to the victims of the war…

A heartfelt meeting with @Ole_Kondratiuk in @ua_parliament, reaffirming our steadfast commitment. The @LRSeimas & the people of #Lithuania stand with our Ukranian brothers and sisters, who face unimaginable hardships. We will continue supporting Ukraine and calling for further sanctions against Russia & Belarus, so that this war becomes unsustainable.

Today in Kyiv — Lithuanian MPs from different political groups. This is a clear sign of broad support for Ukraine and Lithuania’s unity in our struggle. During the meeting with the delegation of the Seimas of the Republic of Lithuania, led by @VCmilyte, I thanked them for Lithuania’s consistent assistance and leadership at the EU level and in international formats. I briefed colleagues on the security situation: russia’s latest strikes once again prove that the aggressor is not ready for peace. Ukraine needs a just peace with strong security guarantees — without repeating the mistakes of the past. We also focused on russia’s energy terror amid freezing temperatures, the need to tighten sanctions without loopholes, mechanisms to ensure accountability for crimes, and the return of abducted Ukrainian children. Lithuanian colleagues reaffirmed their continued advocacy for a just peace and support for Ukraine’s EU membership, noting the resilience of Ukrainian society. We also discussed the situation surrounding Ukrainian athletes and the need for a clear position of the international community on decisions that contradict the principles of fairness.

I am pleased to welcome the delegation of the Seimas of Lithuania to Kyiv, including Deputy Speaker @VCmilyte and Deputy Chair of the Seimas Committee @IngridaSimonyte. Lithuania has stood firmly with Ukraine since the beginning of russia’s full-scale invasion, consistently providing essential support. We particularly value Lithuania’s assistance to the energy sector: 349 humanitarian shipments totaling 5,900 tonnes, including hundreds of generators, thousands of solar panels, and other critical equipment. Lithuania also transferred dismantled equipment from the Vilnius Thermal Power Plant and the Ignalina Nuclear Power Plant, which enabled the repair of damaged facilities and the restoration of heat and electricity supply after shelling. During the meeting, we discussed Ukraine’s energy priorities and urgent needs, including decentralization, strengthening protection, and expanding cogeneration. We highly appreciate Lithuania’s continued readiness to support these efforts. I am grateful to our Lithuanian partners for their visit and unwavering solidarity. Lithuania firmly stands on the side of light 🇺🇦🇱🇹 ______ Радий вітати в Києві делегацію Сейму Литви. Серед них — заступниця голови Сейму Вікторія Чміліте-Нільсен та заступниця голови комітету Сейму Інгріда Шимоніте. Справжні друзі, які поставили Україну в пріоритет ще від початку російського вторгнення й надали нам необхідну підтримку. Особливо цінуємо допомогу в енергетиці: 349 вантажів вагою 5,9 тис. тонн. Сотні генераторів, тисячі сонячних панелей та іншого необхідного обладнання. Окрім цього, Литва передала демонтоване обладнання з Вільнюської ТЕЦ та Ігналінської АЕС для потреб енергетичного сектору України. Це допомогло в ремонті пошкоджених енергооб’єктів та відновленні тепло- й електропостачання після обстрілів. Розповів про наші пріоритети в енергетичній галузі та нагальні потреби. Наше завдання — децентралізувати енергосистему, зміцнити захист і розбудувати когенерацію. Цінуємо готовність Литви допомагати. Вдячний нашим литовським друзям за цей візит і постійну залученість у підтримку України. Литва твердо стоїть на боці світла 🇺🇦🇱🇹

Meeting Garry @Kasparov63 is always an inspiration. His fierceness and clarity in calling for more decisiveness on the Western side is exactly what is needed. Looking forward to reading his new book “The World of Fake values”.
