JD Vance just said that ''America isn't obligated to stand by Ukraine because they aren't in a formal alliance.'' Dear JD. Vance, Look up ''Budapest Memorandum 1994.'' You are welcome.

Latvijā krievu oligarhi pirka slēpošanas bāzes tuvu robežai. Vienu tādu reiz apmeklēju: sirreāla sajūta, tiek uzturēta pamatīga gultvietu kapacitāte un infrastruktūra, bet reklāma un vēlme piesaistīt klientus minimāla.
Russia is using a network of holiday homes in the Baltic to wage hybrid war on the West. Great investigation from @JamesERothwell and @LilyShanagher Western officials are taking action against hundreds of Russian-linked homes in Lithuania, Sweden and Norway, which have been bought close to strategic military sites or key infrastructure. The most serious cases involve oligarch-linked properties at the entrances to naval bases, and holiday homes in close proximity to Nato facilities. telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2…

Bucha. It was a genocide, recognized by everyone. They buried hundreds of people. They tortured people. We found the grave. There were, I believe, around 500 people. When we liberated those towns near Kyiv, there emerged this, you know, this kind of hatred for the Russians, right at that moment. Not even at the moment when they started the full-scale war. Back then nobody understood what it really was yet. People understood what this war was and what Putin did personally when we found those mass graves of tortured adults, children. I mean they didn't just kill them, they tortured and killed them. When we liberated Bucha, I said, bring every journalist here. Don't touch anything, just bring the journalists. The whole world simply has to see this. Imagine finding a mass grave in the U.S. or in Britain, God forbid, with 500 tortured people, adults, kids, dogs, animals shot dead. I mean, they held hunting sprees there from military vehicles. People were running, they were shooting, just hunting, playing games. They literally just played with people, like slavery. So how, after this, can you listen to Putin? And how, after this, can you forgive? From The Diary of a CEO podcast with Steven Bartlett. (2/3)

😡 Strike at the heart of Kyiv and injure as many people as possible: Ukrainian expert “Flash” reveals details of Russia's overnight attack Russian forces launched an Iskander ballistic missile equipped with a K5 cluster warhead at the Ukrainian capital, according to electronic warfare expert Serhii Beskrestnov. 58 explosive submunitions detonating in mid-air. A strike area of up to 400 × 400 meters. This type of weapon is designed to inflict widespread casualties and destroy military equipment. According to Flash, Russia was not targeting a military facility. He believes the goal was to destroy part of Kyiv's historic center and injure as many people as possible. That, he says, explains the choice of a cluster warhead for the strike on the capital.
🚨 Explosions light up Kyiv’s night sky as Russian strikes injure 15 people Overnight on October 22, Russian forces once again attacked the Ukrainian capital. Powerful flashes lit up the city as explosions echoed and air raid sirens blared. The strikes damaged metro infrastructure on the Southern Bridge over the Dnipro River, forcing authorities to restrict traffic. Kyiv had already been targeted by another Russian attack the previous evening, leaving six more people injured.

It’s now officially confirmed. Tonight, russia struck Kyiv’s historic centre with an Iskander ballistic missile carrying a cluster warhead. 58 submunitions explode in mid-air, designed to inflict maximum casualties across a 400 × 400 metre area. “This strike had no military purpose. The goal was to destroy part of the old city and injure as many people as possible,” said a Ukrainian presidential adviser. No military objective. Just terror.
Kyiv. More than 3 million people. russia is hitting the capital with an Iskander missile armed with a cluster warhead. A city full of civilians. Deliberate terror.

Three waves of ballistic missiles have been launched at Kyiv by Russian “humanitarians” since yesterday evening. They used 21 missiles. Unfortunately, numerous sites across the city have been hit and damaged: ordinary residential buildings, energy facilities, infrastructure at one of the railway stations and the metro, shopping malls, and businesses. Even a monastery is among the damaged sites. Our emergency services are working at all the affected locations. Twelve of our regions came under Russian attack overnight. In Kyiv and across the regions, 34 people were injured, including five children. As of now, two people have been confirmed killed. My condolences to their families and loved ones. Almost immediately after another round of talks, Russia launched a pointed attack. This means there has been no real change in its attitude toward everything that is happening. It is important to keep trying to find the right solutions to end this war. But when Russia responds to negotiations with ballistic missiles, real pressure on Russia is needed to bring about different steps – steps toward ending the killing. Stronger air defenses and the rapid delivery of missiles, the ability to destroy ballistic missile launchers, sanctions over the war – all of this must be in place. I am grateful to everyone who sees the situation for what it is and acknowledges the reality. The aggressor deserves to be treated accordingly. Ukraine deserves support. People's lives deserve protection. Thank you to everyone who stands with Ukraine!

"Diplomatic equivalent of a blowjob": US and British politicians shocked by Witkoff’s fawning over Putin 📍US Senator John Cornyn: No. Putin is a cold-blooded killer. 📍US Senator Thom Tillis: WTF, Steve? Look up the definition of the word “humanist.” You should go to Ukraine and ask the families of those children whom Putin kidnapped and killed… 📍British politician Sir Conor Burns: Words fail me. This man is a murderous invader, and this helpless person is giving him the diplomatic equivalent of a blowjob! 📍US Senator Dick Durbin: Calling the war criminal Vladimir Putin a “humanist” is a disgrace to the tens of thousands of Ukrainian soldiers and civilians whom Putin has killed during his brutal war. 📍Tom Tugendhat, British politician: President Putin is a murderer. His soldiers use rape as a weapon… Russia today is what President Reagan correctly called: the evil empire. 📍Joanne Carducci, American political commentator: Actually, Steve — Putin is a war criminal. Just like Trump.
Witkoff calls Putin a “humanist” “You talk so much about President Trump being a humanist. You are a humanist yourself, sir, and I give you credit for that. I commend you for it.”

WTF, Steve? Look up the definition of “humanitarian.” What an embarrassing and outrageous thing to say. You should go back to Ukraine and ask the families of the children Putin has kidnapped and murdered whether they agree your friend Putin is a “humanitarian.”

Holy shit, Witkoff just called Putin a "humanitarian." "You talk so much about my president, President Trump, being a humanitarian. You are a humanitarian also, sir, and I salute that, I commend you, and I thank you again." Because of Putin, thousands of Ukrainian civilians are dead, hospitals lie in ruins, and people are suffering from hunger, torture and Russian terrorism.

В 1994 году США, Россия и Украина подписали соглашение об отказе Украины от ядерного оружия. Украина отдала 4 400 ядерных боеголовок. Взамен США и Россия гарантировали Украине «независимость и существующие границы». Спустя 30 лет один гарант напал, а другой требует капитуляции
