Draadje. Ik hoor sommige mensen zeggen, dat nu het erop lijkt dat er geen ´vredesdeal´ uit zal komen, Trump zich zal gaan afkeren tegen Poetin. Daar heb ik echt sterk mijn twijfels over. Vanaf het begin, gaf Trump steeds de schuld aan Biden en Oekraïne. 1/?

🤡A ceasefire in Ukraine is unrealistic “at this stage,” says Russia’s permanent representative to the UN, Nebenzya. Show this to the US leadership, which believes in Russia’s desire to end the war.

What people must understand is that Putin is only accelerating his attacks on Ukrainian civilians because he is completely confident that Trump has his back. The US could make Russia pay for these attacks, but Putin knows that Trump never will. It’s a sign of (perverse) trust.

This is the beginning of a massive fall of MAGA. No amount of division, fear mongering, lies, and cheap lines will overcome the fact that you just took many people’s prosperity just because it makes you feel powerful. Mark my words, the beginning of the end.

It's not news that Donald Trump doesn't understand the war, but it's still interesting that he assumes it's being fought primarily by young people. In reality, the average age of soldiers on both sides is over 40.

I agree with @kajakallas that the EU should become a beacon of freedom. So when do we start? Here I offer six ways to actually light the beacon and step into the role history has chosen for us. Our response to the current uncertainty can be firm and long term. A thread.🧵1/17

“Zelensky, by the way, I see he's trying to back out of the rare earth deal — and if he does that, he's got some problems, big, big problems” What problems, Donald? You're going to cut off military aid regardless. You've severed ties with Europe and lost the leverage you once had.
