Europe is in chaos. Streets are tense.
People talk endlessly about immigrants from Africa, Syria, Afghanistan and elsewhere. Yet the real pressure building underneath everything is the war in Ukraine.
The only “solution” we keep hearing is more sanctions on Russian energy. Europe still depends heavily on that energy. This is not strategy. It is self-harm dressed up as principle.
If Europe is richer, more democratic and more “civilised,” it should be capable of sitting down with its adversary and negotiating an end to the fighting. That is what serious powers do when the cost of continued war becomes higher than the cost of peace.
History will not record this as a simple defensive war. Ukraine–Russia 2022 will be remembered as a war of choice.
A calculated attempt to use Ukraine as the instrument to weaken, isolate and eventually fracture Russia into smaller, manageable pieces.
That project is now visibly failing.
Sanctions have not broken Russia. The battlefield has not delivered the collapse that was expected.
Europe is paying the price in energy costs, political division and social strain while pretending the only path forward is more of the same.
Peace is not weakness. Refusing to negotiate with an enemy when the strategy is collapsing is.
Imagine all the people living life in peace. Tonight that line feels heavier than a song. In Ukraine, families sleep to the sound of sirens. In Gaza, children grow up counting the missing. The world keeps scrolling. The graves do not. You may say I’m a dreamer, but the dead are not dreaming. They are waiting for the living to choose differently.😭
I’m starting a company that provides home safety assessments. We identify household hazards, show you how to remove them, and give clear recommendations so families can prevent unexpected accidents and live in a safer home. I need support from you as I get this off the ground.

Thank you Zia, let this message go direct to most Europeans leaders not citizens. Please outline one disinformation message from Russia. 🤝
People ask why I “keep supporting Russia on its war aggression against Ukraine. ”
I don’t. I refuse to treat this war as a cartoon.
It is a tragedy for Ukrainian civilians. That is not in dispute. What I reject is the claim that a country on the border of a nuclear power can ignore that neighbour’s security interests, while Washington, Beijing and Moscow are allowed to defend theirs.
The United States did not accept Soviet missiles in Cuba. Georgia learned the same lesson in 2008 over South Ossetia and Abkhazia.
Taiwan lives with the same reality next to China. This year a sitting Venezuelan president was seized by US forces and flown to New York. European officials now speak about the Strait of Hormuz as if they hold the title deed.
Geography and power do not disappear because a slogan is popular.
I am sorry for every family crushed by this war.
I will not pretend the world is a classroom where small states write the rules and great powers politely applaud. If you have facts on camera and in signed records, bring them.
Threats and lectures from people who do not feed my family do not change the map.
The General Assembly has a voice.
The Security Council has the arms.
Africa has 54 members and is on the Council’s agenda more than any other region. It has zero permanent seats.
South Asia home to a fifth of humanity has zero permanent seats.
The map of power is still the map of the Second World War. That is not multilateralism. That is a club.

They only need one word from you to end the whole fight. Refuse to give it and you keep everything that matters.
“The second I say fucking sorry, all of this work was for nothing.”
Every day in Qatar I see something that should not feel rare: people treating public space as if it belongs to everyone.
They walk with quiet self-respect. They give way. They don’t turn the pavement into a battlefield. On the roads the cameras are watching, yes but more than cameras, there is an expectation that the rule exists for all of us.
Cafés have an unspoken order: you dress with dignity, you keep your voice down, you treat the place and the people in it as if they matter. Work starts with greeting, with patience, with the understanding that time and other people are not yours to waste.
The city stays clean not by magic. Littering is ugly and illegal, and people know it will cost them.
I keep coming back to the same thought: if Uganda took even 5% of this, 5% of the self-respect in how we walk, 5% of the seriousness with which road rules are kept, 5% of the quiet order in public places, 5% of the accountability at work, 5% of the refusal to live in filth our country would already look unrecognisable in the best possible way.
Instead we are living with what extractive, indifferent and power hungry leadership has made normal: corruption that swallows every shilling meant for roads and bins, leaders who treat the state like a personal feeding trough, who look away while the city chokes on potholes, garbage and indiscipline.
That is not our culture. That is the absence of rules that are actually kept.
Qatar is not perfect. No country is. But here you can see what happens when a society decides that dignity in public is not optional.
Uganda has the people. What we have lacked is the will to demand and keep the same basic standards.
We deserve streets we are not ashamed of. We deserve leaders who are not ashamed of us either.

I would have loved to be European.
Not because of the passport. Because of what Europe used to stand for. We grew up on their films, their music, their food, their football.
Even from Africa, you could feel the education, the order, the awareness. After the war they rebuilt something the rest of the world looked up to.
Those countries are still rich. That part is not dying.
What feels like it is dying is the part that made the wealth worth having: family norms, a living culture, and a serious relationship with faith.
Listen to too many of their politicians and you hear competence about money and almost nothing about the things that actually keep a people together.
No country that is thinking clearly wants Europe to go down.
We all grew up inside its shadow. But a rich society that no longer protects the family, no longer honours its own culture, and treats religion as a leftover is not 'progressing.' It is emptying out.
If going to Europe is only about work now, that is already a warning. Work is everywhere. A civilisation is not. @omaria234
Across Africa, civic space keeps shrinking while the cult of the leader keeps growing. People defend politicians who jail opponents, ban protest, and rewrite the rules then call it loyalty. That isn’t love of country. That’s how freedom dies.
