Mainly if not exclusively here to stay informed about Russia's illegal and unprovoked war of conquest, and to find the right places to donate in order to protect Ukrainians and kill/capture/drive out the invading Russians.

Anyone tried to do a "Huntingdonian overlay" yet? Might we begin to see a sharpening of the faultlines in the "clash of civilizations"? foreignpolicy.com/2025/02/21/s...

Shame matters equally. I suspect it's implied, but I believe it's worth singling out. Both concepts are urgently in need of revival.

It's been a while already since 🇺🇦 warranted both that label & the land of the Free & home of the Brave. As opposed to the Armed & Misinformed of the US...

I hope this idea gains traction. Former Danish PM & NATO SecGen Anders Fogh Rasmussen has been saying much the same. Nordic/Baltics/UK alliance.

Netop. Selv før Trump var det mest sandsynlige NATO svar på en russisk Little Green Men operation et mangel på ét koordineret svar. Artikel 5 er ikke en automatiseret proces.

I felt that way after just two nights in Kyiv. It was impossible to stay worried when all around you, Ukrainians were just getting on with their lives.

Problem is that Trump doesn't understand half the words in that sentence, much less the sentiment behind it.

Jeg synes pengene til Ukraine er at styrke vores nære forsvar. De kæmper dybest set for vores sikkerhed. Men det værste er egentlig at hans forståelse af krigen er virkelig dårlig. Det er i store træk den russiske sejrsplan han opridser som en god fredsløsning.

🇬🇧 and 🇫🇷 are crucial in any scenario where a NATO country puts boots on the ground. They're the tripwire that lends credence to the MAD principle, should 🇷🇺 decide to use nukes.

Stefan Korshak har samme læsning, altså at USA igen begrænser Ukraine. Og han har desværre også mere dårligt nyt at berette. www.facebook.com/share/p/DPym...

Square kilometers, I hope.

Also: It requires Russian levels of self-delusion to argue that stealing the very Easternmost parts of 🇺🇦 is necessary to protect against NATO aggression, while 🇷🇺 borders with mainland NATO in the West are left virtually undefended. Giving up 🇺🇦 land only has bad consequences.

Since the question is in English, I assume it's intended for foreigners and not Ukrainians. I make this disclaimer bc my opinion doesn't matter re. his domestic performance. As a foreigner judging his performance on the world stage: Yes, I support him. Of course.

Yay!

There is no scenario in which using nukes doesn't end spectacularly unwell for Russia. There are multiple ways in which we can escalate without changing that calculus.
