🇳🇱✈️🇺🇦 Tomorrow, the Netherlands will send the last of the 24 promised F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine, the Dutch Defense Minister said.

Old muther pootin, Went to the cupboard, To fetch his poor dog's some guns. When he came there, Even D-30s were scarce, And so ruzzian dogs got none. @atpgeo.bsky.social #ukraine

🇺🇸 After talks in Turkey failed to bring progress, U.S. senators urged Congress to pass sanctions against Russia. The bipartisan bill calls for 500% tariffs on countries buying Russian energy if the Kremlin undermines U.S. peace efforts on Ukraine, Reuters reports. www.reuters.com/world/us/non...

🇬🇧 UK Foreign Secretary reacts to Russia’s strike on a bus near Bilopillia: “Appalled by Russia’s attack, just hours after talks in Turkey. If Putin is serious about peace, Russia must agree to a full and immediate ceasefire — as Ukraine has.”

Tragic news. I hope they got a good price on the scrap metal though. @atpgeo.bsky.social www.abc.net.au/news/2025-05...

@atpgeo.bsky.social About 13:30 is the reason why the Trump administration doesn't care about direction of the market, just the turmoil from it's decisions, from a portrait of Cabinet Secretary Howard Lutnick. www.youtube.com/watch?v=NYWs...

🇱🇹🇺🇦🇷🇺”Putin never escalates when we help Ukraine. He escalates when we don't help enough.” — Gabrielius Landsbergis, Former Foreign Minister of Lithuania

As a proud member of the Ukrainian community, I was honoured to celebrate Vyshyvanka Day yesterday. Together, we continue to share our traditions, show our strength and honour our heritage. Manitoba is stronger because of it. 🇺🇦 #mbpoli

Medinsky: “We don’t want war, but we’re ready to fight one, two, three years — as long as it takes. We fought Sweden for 21 years. How long are you ready to fight?” Russia in Istanbul threatened to seize Kharkiv, Sumy, demanding exit from 4 regions, — Oliver Carroll, The Economist.

Reform is a Limited Company Farage owns 53% It was formed in 2019 to push for a “no-deal Brexit” It wants to reintroduce the Liz Truss budget It wants to privatise the NHS & invest in fossil fuels Close the BBC & break International law It’s a scam Please retweet widely

Starmer & Merz also made similar statements as a result of a carefully crafted strategy led by Ukraine+Europeans together to rope in the US as a monitor - IF ruzzia accepts. IF they do not, as Ukrainians & more believe, it shows ruzzia up as a bad faith actor cementing future US/EU military support

Current Australia projections - with opposition leader in a fight for survival in his own seat, currently losing it. @atp geopolitics

Antony Green, ABC long-time analyst declares Albanese will win, could be a big win, depending on pre-poll numbers and preferences. @atpgeo.bsky.social

Settling in for a nail-biting election coverage of the Australian elections. ABC News is free to air globally. Should have results pretty clear view on outcome by around midday London time. www.abc.net.au/news/newscha... @atpgeo.bsky.social

Good luck Canada!

@atpgeo.bsky.social Are you sure the UA are not secretly engaging you as a targetting consultant and using your live streams to send out secret strike orders in plain view?

"Directive" - An authoritative instruction; to ordain, order, or appoint (a person) to do a thing, (a thing) to be done. Someone should inform the orange autocrat and the cornflake emissary that they do not have the authority to order anyone outside of the bounds of the United States.

Zelensky fires back at Trump amid rumors that the White House has offered to recognize Russian sovereignty over Crimea, posts a screenshot of the first Trump admin’s July 2018 denunciation of Moscow’s annexation. A not-so-subtle accusation of hypocrisy leveled at the Donald.

❗️Zelensky reposted a 2018 statement by then-Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, which read: “The United States reaffirms its policy of refusing to recognize the Kremlin’s claims to sovereignty over territory seized by force.”

You cracked the code!

The Free world will never give Crimea to a violent dictator who attacks Democracies and our Allies. How embarrassing that the free world no longer includes the regime that temporarily directs policy for the United States.

The European Union will never recognize Crimea as Russian territory, head of European diplomacy, Kaja Kallas, said in an interview with AFP. She also believes that the United States has not used its tools to put pressure on Russia.

Your not wrong MAKS

For your round-up @atpgeo.bsky.social

Nice to see on the BBC Newsfeed. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Loved chatting with Jesse! I learned about his work because he covered the recent House hearing where I testified. Jesse discussed how Rep. Keith Self compared me to Goebbels. He then compared Self to a “thumb shaped dildo with ears.” Which is more apt? 💁🏻‍♀️

@atpgeo.bsky.social A short one from an Aussie comedian/political YTuber.

A quite short comedic look at the impossible stipulations what trump tanted to extract from Australia in return for a tariff deal. We said FU it seems - though did pretty well at 10% (although our penguins are a bit miffed) it matches the GST/VAT amount. youtu.be/6sdjlYHXJFA?...

Oh, this is gonna make the rounds. 🤡 #PenguinTariff 🐧

Use a VPN

ATTN FEDERAL WORKERS: It has come to my attention that several agencies are now offering WiFi for you to use with your PERSONAL devices. If I were you, I would NOT use that WiFi. I suspect it's a way for DOGE to monitor your personal communications.

incredible website lmfao

youtu.be/l82DgCsWL1I?... @atpgeo.bsky.social Some holiday viewing for you, have a great time!

Dear Prime Minister Trudeau, Many 🇺🇸 living in border states with 🇨🇦 wish us to become your southernmost province. This sentiment reflects our admiration for the values and stability that Canada represents, in contrast to the dictatorial tendencies of our current government. Sincerely, Dr. Len

It’s borderline criminal.

Fact-check: True

👊🇺🇸🇺🇦 US Vice President Vance's cousin, Nate Vance, fought for Ukraine as part of the Da Vinci Wolves, — Le Figaro "He is a cold-blooded and skilled fighter." He is upset that J.D. Vance showed no interest in his combat experience and opposes helping Kyiv.

France, the UK, and Italy have ordered over 200 Aster surface-to-air missiles from Eurosam for their own stocks. Eurosam, which includes MBDA France, MBDA Italy, and Thales, plans to boost missile production by 50% by 2026 and cut manufacturing time from 42 to under 18 months.
