    fights for its survivor. prepared ‘high impact’ sanctions if ’s aggression occurs again. claiming its geopolitical role must now have a package of specific countermeasures on the table, knowing the 'traditions' for how long it takes.

    has made it very clear- it wants to demolish current security system and make it dependent on its neo-imperial ambitions, to legitimize its veto over self-determination of neighbors, feels able to blackmail by military means. Terrorist behavior can’t be negotiated.

    stated that 's intentions to reclaim threaten Russia's security. Sounds like nonsence, unless we admit that thief is also under threat if victim legally seeks to recover his property. Remains to empathise such vulnerable thief.

    warns that it will ‘soon make’ proposals to halt ’s expansion into the East, using threats of ‘nightmarish military confrontation’ as negotiation argument. They hope their ‘red lines’ will overshadow the value backbone of the free world. Time to prove they are wrong.

    foreign ministers discussed situation around . It’s not enough to express support and warn . Specific content is needed for EOP status, intensified military cooperation, exercises, presence in the Black Sea. Otherwise, only Putin's 'red lines' will be seen

  6. Dictator intends to offer to return nuclear weapons to . Already ‘offered’ to make this offer? Lamentable to watch when illegal 'commander' renounce remnants of sovereignty in order to remain in his post just longer. Anyway, neither he nor his decisions are valid.

  7. On the margins of FM meeting discussing partnerships. I believe that by over-worrying about how to manage 🇺🇦 and 🇬🇪 expectations, in reality we encourage aggressor's expectations and actions.

    Undo
  8. Dictator stated that would not remain neutral if military confrontation in Donbass will take place. Few points. First of all, it’s not him who decides. Secondly, if he speaks about aggression as real, maybe he really knows it’s imminent.

  11. On the day of solidarity with political prisoners in we send letters and signs of our support. They need attention, they need encouragement.

  12. Dictator is trying to convince that 90% of 🇧🇾supports him. He must have been in shock after seeing hundreds of thousands in the squares who told him to 'go out'. We are in solidarity with 888 political prisoners which show the whole world that imprisonment doesn’t mean breaking.

  13. dictator’s war against is lamentable, becoming more and more tragic. He allowed one plane to return, many other migrants are held hostage in his immoral ‘trade off’ game. He and those helping him are criminals. Can’t be any concessions, he needs to be tried.

  14. is under threat. ’s strong position is a must. Instead of talking about "strategic autonomy", EU should take firm stance to deter possible ’s aggression, strengthen strategic ties with Ukraine, join forces with , threaten Russia with severe sanctions.

  15. On ’s armed forces day we congratulate those who chose the most honorable profession - to defend their Homeland. But it’s not just their celebration, it’s a day for all of us and a reminder that freedom comes at a price, it needs to be cherished. For the Homeland!

  16. aggression follows the same playbook and criminal scheme. ‘Hybrid border test’ of resilience raised hopes for weak reaction also elsewhere. Accusations against the West of escalating and ignoring 's 'red lines' signal possible new aggression against .

  17. On the day of Dignity and Freedom in we recall how the nation's identity was reborn at bonfires. It’s obligation for the country to continue freedom fight, and reminder to all of us- no compromise, appeasement or other ‘deals’ with aggressor. !

  18. That’s why is collecting ‘pieces’ of land, and that ‘piece- loving’ power just unlimited

  19. . After ‘talks’ with dictator he agreed not to torture migrants at the border but hundreds still continue to attack . Regime no longer hides its support, also hopes that EU pressure will collapse. Meanwhile, there are already 870 political prisoners, what about them?

    Undo
  20. & its subordinates in mustn’t be allowed to blackmail world and squeeze concessions at the expense of others. Any trade off will lead to new demands and ultimatums. Saber rattling at ’s border and hybrid attack at ’s border designed for just that.
