This is the pressconference on release of the Russia report... Maybe PM Starmer will release the full, unredacted report? #RussiaReport www.youtube.com/watch?v=xMCm...

“The Ukrainian president was elected in free elections in Ukraine..he is an elected president of a free system. That's not the case with Vladimir Putin, who kills his opponents and has been manipulating his elections for a long time” Emmanuel Macron President of France 👏

Oh.

This hits hard.

Starlink should be banned from European markets on national security grounds. Anything requiring Starlink should be shut out of the European market, and sanctions should be considered against all relevant actors. kyivindependent.com/us-threatens...
