"Putin's decision today to launch attacks rather than cease fire is a sobering reminder to all of us: Putin is a ruthless killer who has no interest in peace and cannot be trusted," the Senate members said.

MT: "Tilanne on pahempi kuin kriittinen." Z-sodan kirjeenvaihtajat raportoivat, että Ukrainan asevoimat ovat melkein ajaneet Venäjän armeijan ulos Kupyanskista.

Ukrainan asevoimat ovat saaneet takaisin Kupyanskin, Harkivin alueen tärkeän rautatien risteyskohdan, hallinnan.

Kun reilut 10 v sitten varoitin Suomen energiariippuvuudesta Venäjään ylipäätään ja Rosatom-ydinvoimahankkeessa, sain syytöksiä kokoomuksesta "russofobiasta". Lähdin hallituksesta.

10 v myöhemmin saman puolueen törkyosasto kehtaa syyttää minua tekemisistään. Kertaus:

🇪🇺🇺🇦 Europe will never match the sacrifice of the Ukrainian people, but will continue to support their struggle, — Von der Leyen

This is how she commented on the allocation of €90 billion.

💬 We will support their fight for survival as long as necessary. Because security of Ukraine is our security.

Canada has affirmed its commitment to the people of Greenland. We are opening a consulate there in the spring. Canada is stepping up with Europe as the United States descends into rogue state threats.

American tech companies are not truly concerned about censorship, as they happily operate in countries with strict regulations.

You never hear the Trump administration complain about Saudi Arabia, Russia, or China.

This is about bullying Europe, nothing more

Elon Musk and his fascist friends in the administration never complain about censorship in countries that actually censor Americans.

They comply with regulations in Saudi Arabia, Russia, and China.

They complain about Europe only because they hate liberal democracies

Mr. President, based on an agreement by US, Denmark and Greenland, if you ask, you will surely be allowed to place as many mil-forces as are deemed necessary for Alliance security at various locations on Greenland.

If you're using "need" to mean "annex", then...

Voisiko jokin media siis oikeasti haastaa Orpon siitä, että vaikka hän viikoittain, esim tämän päivän IS-haastattelussa kertoo, miten hyvin asiat menevät, niin miksi silti kaikki mittarit ovat punaisella?

V/d Leyen: Arctic security remains a key priority for the European Union, and one in which we seek to work with allies and partners. Territorial integrity and sovereignty are fundamental principles of international law. (…) We stand in full solidarity with Denmark and the people of Greenland.

Distributing bread, USSR, 1961. Not a single communist state has ever built a modern prosperous society - it always resulted in an armed, impoverished hut, hating its prosperous and successful neighbors.

President Stubb:

The Russian economy is actually not doing that well.They have zero growth,they are out of reserves,they have high interest rates&high inflation.

It’s not improving.I think one of the things that hit the Russian economy quite hard were the American sanctions on Lukoil and Rosneft.

Neuvoston päätös Ukrainan lainasta oli elintärkeä. Ilman sitä Putin ja Trump olisivat kuristaneet Ukrainan. Venäjä saa jo nyt liittolaisiltaan jopa sotilaita rintamalle. Takaportti syväjäädytettyihin Venäjä-varoihin olemassa,ja sen on pidettävä. Tässä ei ollut kyse politiikasta vaan selviytymisestä.

Excellent speech of Mr Claude Malhuret.
The urgency of Europe getting it's shit together cannot in any way be overstated.

Monthly Russian losses hit 31,000 in November 2025. Total irreversible casualties: approximately 1,192,000.

Russia entered this war already in demographic freefall. Now it's losing 0.5-1.2% of all men under 60 - prime working and reproductive age.
