"Witkoff is prolonging the conflict. He is not promoting peace. His call to Ushakov was not, as Trump said last night, a normal negotiating tactic.

Rewarding a dictator-aggressor always leads to another war. One that is usually even worse.

🫣 One in five Russians believes the Sun revolves around the Earth, — survey by the Institute of Psychology of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

16% are certain that humans and dinosaurs lived at the same time.

90% of respondents could not name a single living world-class Russian scientist.

Olen jakanut kehuja siitä, että ei silloin hyydytty tuntemattomien(kin) uhkien edessä, joten pitää myös kritiikkiä jakaa kun siihen on aihetta.
(Eiköhän tämä ole havaittu siellä puolueen nykyjohdon piireissä kun siellä osataan olla vaaleja odotellessa hiljaa tehdyistä korjausliikkeistä).
Kitkerä uutinen. Veikkaan, ettei tule blueskyssä kovin montaa kommenttia tai jakoa.

Niin että Itä-Ukrainako on venäjänkielinen?

Ainakin se näyttää olevan hyvin ukrainankielinen!
This is results for national testing on Ukrainian language by region (darker = better). Tell me more about how the east of Ukraine is Russian speaking.

Jep. That's a way to stop these incursions.
Shoot. Them. Down.
Two incursions in one day. And it’s no longer drones.

Would be nice if more leaders would understand this!
🇺🇦🗣️ Zelensky: Putin is at war. And everyone is trying to stop him with persuasions. That is, everyone is starting to ask him. And force is needed, he understands force. This is his language.

❗️WSJ also reports that, according to their information, during the closed part of the meeting, Finnish President Alexander Stubb called the cities of Kramatorsk and Slavyansk "a Bastion against the Huns"

According to the publication's sources, this impressed Trump.

Eihän lahjakkaiden haastaminen parempiin suorituksiin ole muilta pois.

On suoranaista typeryyttä turhauttaa ja opettaa heitä laiskoiksi, koska lahjakkaat pärjää koulussa sekä elämässä laiskallakin suorituksella (eikä joudu tasapäisyyttä korostavan kulttuurimme silmätikuksi).

Erinomaista!
Good.

During the Cold War, Teboil built very oversized underground fuel tanks in tiny villages along the main roads leading from the Russian border.

When the USSR collapsed, they offered to sell a large quantity of fuel suitable for Soviet tanks the FDF used. The fuel was already in Finland too!
The 🇷🇺 Russian-owned gas station chain Teboil recently posted a loss in 🇫🇮 Finland

-A loss of 58.7 million euros last year on a turnover of 1.6 billion
-Return on equity collapsed to -94.1 percent last year

Since the start of the war many Finns have boycotted Teboil

True that - how long does it take until western decision makers - Trump included - understand this?!
I don’t much like repeating myself, but I will do that as long as it is necessary.
BTW one thing that I believe is often misunderstood by those living among civilized neighbors is that to live in peace with the Kremlin, the options are strength or submission. Deals and treaties are a form of the latter.

That _there is no deal you can make with the Kremlin that would protect you._

Russia's Security Council Deputy Chairman Medvedev's statement.
Anyone hoping for peace through negotiations must re-read this until they comprehend that Russia's goal of complete annihilation of Ukraine's statehood will never change.
Peace is only possible thru Russia's defeat.

Starting to look like a major Ukrainian offensive. Now explosions have been reported in Severomorsk, where the Russian Northern Fleet, including subs with nukes, is based.
