Always remember kids, the best people to listen to about what Kremlin will do if you seize our assets to help Ukraine defend itself are the people who said we wouldn't even invade them in the first place.

Orban is pleading publicly with his boss Putin not to punish him in a letter he wrote after the EU overrode his veto on frozen Russian assets.
He also said Hungary's "loyal cooperation" with the EU on sanctions was over.
Is he suggesting he was loyally cooperating before?🤔

The occupation authorities will seize residential buildings, apartments and individual rooms that are recognized as "having signs of ownerless property".

The boy survived a missile strike on Vinnytsia on July 14, 2022, which killed his mother - it was the last time he saw her alive.
