#UkrainianView To understand the Ukrainian position, we must start with the fact that Putin is not fighting for territory. Russia has vast territories, undeveloped and neglected. Russia is fighting to destroy Ukrainian statehood and identity, as it did 100 years ago.

Make no mistake: Ukraine is leading the fight for democracy. A just and lasting peace requires Ukraine to be at the negotiating table, and its victory will make all of us safer. Ukraine must win. Putin must lose. Slava Ukraini.

The entire town has come out to protest JD Vance and reports indicate he’s been either run out or forced to go into hiding. #3E #EndImpunity #StandWithUkraine

🇬🇧🇺🇦 Keir Starmer: "My support for Ukraine is unwavering. The UK stands with you, President Zelensky."

🇨🇿 🚨 Czech President Petr Pavel calls for a broad coalition to secure a just peace in Ukraine. ⚠️ He warns that so-called “peace” on the aggressor’s terms is capitulation – a green light for future aggressors. 🔥 The free world must stand up to evil! #StandWithUkraine

I experienced a few false starts trying to vote in the #LPC Leadership election today, but I got into the site and just recorded my vote. Hurrah! #cdnpoli

Might doesn’t make it right. - PM Trudeau In a dramatic display of international solidarity, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau joins Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and European Union leaders in Kyiv. 🇨🇦 www.youtube.com/watch?v=_pm7...

🇺🇦🇬🇧 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/

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.
