Russia is the cancer of the world, yet it’s treated like a mild flu. 3 years since the full-scale war against the existence of Ukrainian identity, let alone the Ukrainian state. This war cannot have some rapid peace agreement, because its reasons are not rational.

Stoltenberg is now finance minister of my filthy rich Norway. If he meant what he said as NATO sec gen, he could easily finance the Ukrainian defense industry. And Norway would love him for it. Please everyone, anything you can do to put pressure on us here in Norway!

The Baltic states Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania have today fully decoupled their energy grid from Russia. At the moment they are running in an island mode, but starting tomorrow the energy grid will be reconnected with the European Union.

And today I discovered landsbergis.ghost.io, Gabrielius Landsbergis' newsletter site slash blog, where he muses about international, geopolitical affairs, freedom, the Baltics, Ukraine... Analytical, clear-sighted, uncompromising and unafraid, this is a tremendously important voice!

Immensely interesting interview with @glandsbergis.bsky.social about "the coming of Trump", russia's war on Ukraine in a geopolitical perspective and the position of the Baltics. One of the most interesting straight-talkers of our day!

I remain embarrassed of my country’s lack if substantial support for Ukraine. We could EASILY afford to set up a dedicated fund from 200 bn Euro of extra income bco the war and yearly fund Ukraine with 10-20 bn Euros or more, for the next couple of decades. We could. We should. We MUST!

The collapse of the Assad regime is for Russia a far worse catastrophe than most realize. It will take me many posts and you will see more and more like this coming the coming days and weeks. Here, I will show the implications on Africa. (1/9)

Brilliant sum-up by Vindman. Russia's and Iran's power is waning, and there is a possibility here to grab, to up the pressure.

My country was occupied for 50 years by the Soviet Union. Maybe the guns fell silent, but it wasn't peace. Ukraine, all of it, deserves nothing less than real and lasting peace.

The level of violence against protestors in Georgia is unacceptable. I hope many more countries will join the Baltic States in sanctioning the people responsible.

Georgia is at a breaking point. The people are rising up against Georgian Dream (GD), an anti-European regime that has rigged elections, usurped power, and unleashed brutal violence against peaceful protesters. 🧵Here is how important the Wests actions are right now. 1/25

🇪🇪🇱🇻🇱🇹 The Baltic states understand the Georgian struggle better than anyone else. That’s why they are first to answer the Georgian people’s call for sanctions against those trying to steal Georgia’s future.🇬🇪

The three Baltic States jointly agreed to impose national sanctions against those who suppressed legitimate protests in Georgia. Opponents of democracy and violators of human rights are not welcome in our countries. 🇪🇪🇱🇻🇱🇹🇬🇪

The largest defense investment in Lithuania’s history!!

This is all so Putin-esque — saving al-Assad’s ass for a DECADE, spending gargantuan resources, applying mercenary armies, turning entire cities into piles of rubble, killing hundreds of thousands of people, and eventually getting all things royally fucked up within DAYS.

Everything is in the balance, it seems, with the demonstrations in Georgia and the rebel uprising in Syria. These are times with huge challenges and huge tragedies, but there are also enormous possibilities present here! There are reasons to despair, but also to hope and fight!

"Russia has yet to learn from its history. As long as it avoids addressing its past and present, russia will persist as a toxic and aggressive imperialist nation"

And if you want to explain the war in Ukraine, this is what you must explain first - why is Russia mentally ABLE to do this? - because they don't see themselves as a country, but an empire. And for an empire, there are no other countries, only other empires or subjects.

🇬🇪The streets of Tbilisi are alive with courage. The Georgian people are standing against betrayal, rejecting a government that has abandoned their dreams of Europe for the shadows of Moscow. This is a fight for freedom, dignity, and the future of a democratic Georgia.

A DHL plane crashed before landing in Vilnius today. So far the reason is not known, but given that DHL had experienced earlier sabotage attempts with explosives in cargo, there is all reason to be very alert indeed!!
