The Russian plan is a non-starter. No Ukrainian leader could sign it and survive politically. Europe is exploring alternative ideas, but even a reasonable compromise sent to Moscow will likely be rejected. Putin is the one who wants to keep fighting. As I told @morningjoe-msnow.bsky.social

Astonishing that a leading politicians can have reached a position with such a dishonourable past. Youthful indiscretion is one thing, dismissing in an interview suggests a lack of understanding over the impact of emotional manipulation and such insensitivity causes deep concern.

Laughing off, it was pub banter.
It was a long time ago. That was what boys did then.

I know I did that but I didn't mean it that way.

The difficult truth is that there is a clear national security element to social media information flows. It can't all be viewed through the single lens of free speech. Disinformation sabotage is a hostile act intended to destablise our societies. Our societies need appropriate protection.

But today is a final farewell.

X rolled out a new feature overnight showing where accounts are based. This network of “Trump-supporting independent women” that claimed to be “real Americans” are based in Thailand.
The photos were stolen from European models & posts pushed pro-Trump lines while targeting Islam and LGBTQ people.

Peace processes legitimise underlying requirements: the framework will include recognition of an independent Ukraine giving the people a choice.
There is no basis in international law for Russian leaders to restrict future choices for the people of Ukraine.

Fighter jet purchases depend on confidence in future reliability. They need parts, maintenance, ongoing communication, trust that no measure will ever be electronically disabled, etc.
Telling Canada buy US jets or we’ll hurt your economy more is effectively communicating it’d be dumb to buy US jets.

Any long term agreement must respect Ukraine's withdrawal from the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS). There is no legal basis to any expectation that formally the USSR dissolved.

This so-called ‘peace plan’ has real problems, and I am highly skeptical it will achieve peace. Ukraine should not be forced to give up its lands to war criminal Putin.
The size and disposition of Ukraine’s armed forces is a sovereign choice for its government and people.
