Peter Pomerantsev: "If Moldova, the poorest country in Europe with 2.4mn people, can defeat Russian hybrid attacks, why can’t the rest of the continent?"

Behind Russia’s victory narrative in Ukraine is a system under strain. To fight back, the ‘middle powers’ must work harder on their own story

#Zelensky on latest #Russia strikes on #Ukraine energy infrastructure: "Level of attack that no terrorist in the world has ever dared, and Russia must feel world's response.

Russia must show that not only such strikes & war matter to it, but also ongoing negotiations supposed to deliver results"
