🇺🇦🇬🇧 Zelensky thanks the UK for its support and announces a meeting with King Charles III tomorrow. PM Keir Starmer emphasizes that Zelensky is always a welcome guest and that 🇬🇧 British aid will continue. #London #Ukraine #Zelensky Post: NOELreports

Justin Trudeau Prime Minister of Canada 👏

The Oval Office meeting today between Trump and Zelensky “reeked of a planned attack,” @radiofreetom.bsky.social writes. “The Ukrainian leader did his best to stand up to the bullying, but Trump and Vance were playing to the cameras and the MAGA gallery at home.” theatln.tc/5tozgdyn

There is no "war" between Ukraine and Russia. Russia invaded Ukraine and Ukraine is defending itself from an invasion.

Thank you, Canada, for standing with Ukraine 🇺🇦 ”Russia illegally and unjustifiably invaded Ukraine (…) Canada will continue to stand with Ukraine and Ukrainians in achieving a just & lasting peace.”

Democracies stand with Ukraine.

Elon Musk is a bandit. And Doug Ford just signed $100 million deal with him. Meanwhile he and Trump are trying to crush the people of Ukraine. Doug Ford says it's the "best bang for the buck." No Doug, this is what vichy collaborators do. Slava Ukraini

The Trump right hates Zelenskyy because he exemplifies integrity and courage, and the price of following Trump is to abjure those qualities forever.

EXCLUSIVE: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth last week ordered U.S. Cyber Command to stand down from all planning against Russia, including offensive digital actions. On @therecordmedia.bsky.social therecord.media/hegseth-orde...

Received quite a few replies like "we aren't like that orange shit". I feel ya. But the best way to say that: donate to legit Ukrainian charities or to share such fundraisers if you can't donate. If your government totally sucks - it's your duty to do the right thing. #UkrainianView 1/

Yesterday, the mineral deal wasn't signed by #Trump and #Zelenskyy. But Texty.org.ua wants to remind you about possible consequences, which could have only empowered Putin and Russia. #StandWithUkraine #UkrainianView

🇺🇲 for all Americans who are ashamed: instead of saying sorry, just donate 1$, 5$ or 10$ to Ukrainian Foundations. like, any trusted one. literally any. your words are important, but it doesn't make a direct impact. #UkrainianView #StandWithUkraine my strong suggestion: savelife.in.ua/en/

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau responds to Trump / Zelenskyy press conference 🇨🇦

The oval office ambush - my initial assessment of the Zelenskyy-Trump-Vance brawl in the Oval Office, and what the implications might be for the trajectory of the war in #Ukraine. www.lowyinstitute.org/the-interpre...

Ukraine is Europe! We stand by Ukraine. We will step up our support to Ukraine so that they can continue to fight back the agressor. Today, it became clear that the free world needs a new leader. It’s up to us, Europeans, to take this challenge.

Decent people thank Ukraine.

The words of support from European states, after unsuccessful negotiations with #Trump, must be followed by decisive military action. Read more about why Europe benefits from Ukraine's victory in the article by Texty.org.ua #StandWithUkraine #UkrainianView texty.org.ua/articles/112...

here on the picture you see a full-time-job clown, who are thirsty to power and money and have no respect to people he is speaking with next to him is President Zelenskyy #UkrainianView

Trump doesn't know what year the Russia-Ukraine war started

This was a disgusting display by the soft, uninformed VP Vance trying to school Zelensky, the man who has led his country through the most surprisingly resilient and effective fight for sovereignty against a global superpower. Every negative stereotype about America is confirmed in this exchange.

Even with the obvious imbalance of power, Zelensky makes Vance look like a preening little teacher’s pet.

There it is! "Putin went through a hell of a lot with me. He went through a phony witch hunt." He is referring to them weathering their collusion becoming public, and now is the big payback: together until the end.

I think we have to agree that JD is such a sniveling little bitch.

Trump and Vance are shamefully doing Putin’s bidding right from the Oval Office. It’s an absolute disgrace. I’m filled with rage as I watch this. I stand with all of you who believe deeply in the ideals of freedom and democracy. I’m disgusted by our president bending a knee to Putin.

We’re standing up for Canada and for BC. If others do not know where they stand, that’s on them. Our approach is clear: we will always be the True North, strong and free. 🇨🇦

Even storage locker companies are advertising that they are Canadian. 😆 🇨🇦

@charlieangus104.bsky.social is a badass and we love him. Real Canadians never cower to fascists, we look after our family and friends. #CanadaStrong 🇨🇦

“There is no economic crisis right now between #Canada & the #USA, except for the ones that are created. You can disrupt those relationships & then immediately create a problem. But that doesn't mean there's an underlying issue”: Bob Rae 🇨🇦 UN Ambassador www.usnews.com/news/nationa... #canadasky

Lol. Donald Trump has cost Canada’s Conservative Party 26 points in just 6 weeks.

Trump advisor Peter Navarro is pushing US negotiators to discuss redrawing the border with Canada. Consequently, Canada has temporarily withdrawn from negotiations #Canada 🇨🇦 politicalpress.ca/2025/02/pete...

Terry Fox is the greatest Canadian athlete of all time, not Wayne Gretzky. He ran a marathon every day on one leg, across Canada. He didn't do it to get rich, nor to become famous. #TerryFox 🇨🇦

A US effort to sink a draft UN resolution condemning Russia’s invasion of Ukraine failed today after European countries and Kyiv marshaled support for strong language against Moscow. The General Assembly passed the resolution with 93 countries voting in favor. The US & Russia both voted against it.

Not a single Liberal leadership candidate spent thousands of $ to skip last nights leadership debate. Like Pierre Poilievre did to skip his debate. #cdnpoli #peipoli
