2/3 Before #Nawrocki moved against Zelenskyy’s Order of the White Eagle, the idea had already circulated through anti-Ukrainian and pro-Russian circles. Same emotional framing. Similar wording. Telegram amplification. Russian and Belarusian propaganda channels joining in.

🔴 Ukraine launches record 13 long-range strikes on Russian war machine in June.

Or will we all finally get over the need to dictate to others who should and should not be admired? No one in Ukraine glorifies UPA for the terror. No one (except for kremlin sponsored fucks) has the need to highlight crimes done by members of AK. Can we finally let history to historians?

Unfounded catastrophizing - placing all blame on Zelenskyy and none on the country which used to subjugate Ukrainians. Relations with Poland are tense, but if Zelenskyy/Ukraine can sign defense contracts with Germany, it's possible to reconcile with Poland someday.

Ukraine is not escalating anything. Ukrainian National Pantheon is not about Poland. It's about Ukraine.

🔴 Russia delays Donetsk Oblast capture deadline for 15th time, Zelenskyy says. President Zelenskyy says that Russia has again postponed its target for seizing the Donetsk region until December 31, a deadline he noted has been reset approximately 15 times since the start of the full-scale invasion.

It will be interesting to see how events unfold in Russia if Ukraine steps up the pressure. It's almost pathetic to see how hysterical the Russians already are, especially considering how many years Ukrainians have endured intense pressure.

🤯 Ukraine carried out at least 13 long-range strikes against Russian defense-industrial facilities in June, the highest monthly total recorded this year. 🔗 united24media.com/war-in-ukrai...

One square, 2 different worlds. Once a vibrant gathering place filled with joy; now, a memorial for all the fallen heroes who defended Ukraine from russian barbarism. This is the world russia creates: one filled with loss, grief, and destruction.

Ukraine’s 40-day operation to pressure Russia to end its war continues.

For anyone still wondering why Zelenskyy would consciously do something that a neighbor disagrees with, this is the answer.

June 28 is the Constitution Day of 🇺🇦. In his annual address, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy delivers a reminder that the strength and beauty of the Constitution are in those who defend it every day: the Ukrainian people. Ukrainians are the foundation of our freedom, sovereignty and independence.

❗️Zelenskyy: "Our state, Ukraine, which respects itself, values ​​its own and protects its right to be Ukrainians. When no one will ever tell us how to live, how to speak, whom to love, whom to be grateful to and which heroes to honor." 🇺🇦

❗️Zelenskyy: "Our state, Ukraine, which respects itself, values ​​its own and protects its right to be Ukrainians. When no one will ever tell us how to live, how to speak, whom to love, whom to be grateful to and which heroes to honor." 🇺🇦

💥 It is the second day of Ukraine's 40-day operation to force Russia to end the war. ✅ A military plant in Russia's Volgograd.

Another example of how history can be complicated and has a different perspective based on who is telling it. Few, if any, nations are innocent of terrible atrocities. None of these offenses should be rationalized or justified, and no country should impose their nationalist agenda on another.

It's quite funny how people think losing an award would humiliate Zelenskyy.

No it didn’t humiliate President Zelensky. The decision said a lot about Nawrocki, nothing about Zelensky.

There's a 3-day Ukrainian festival Sunday June 28-Tuesday June 30th with events in Vancouver, Burnaby & Sidney. Demos & workshops, arts & crafts, merch, music, dance...and of course lots of PEROGIES! Get a sneak preview from the organizer who shared details with me: shows.acast.com/nashholos/ep...

It's not that they want to stop raping, torturing, and killing Ukrainian civilians, the problem is that diverting air defenses to Moscow means fewer Russian soldiers will live long enough to rape, torture, and kill Ukrainian civilians 😡

Crimea is Ukraine. 🇺🇦

Last Night's NY Primaries — What It Means for Ukraine 1/ The Democratic Party's left flank is consolidating around a foreign policy skeptical of NATO, hostile to defense funding & unwilling to confront authoritarianism. That is a direct threat to Ukraine's standing www.amukr.org/news/last-ni...

Since the start of its full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Russia has killed at least 707 Ukrainian children. Behind each number is a life cut short and a future that will never be realized. 🧵 1/13 ⬇️

🔴 Zelenskyy authorizes 40-day operation to pressure Russia to end war. President Zelenskyy has approved a 40-day Security Service of Ukraine mission designed to influence the aggressor state toward ending the war, following a report from Major General Khmara.

"Historian Ihor Kulyk emphasizes that the basis of the conflict lies in the attempt of Polish politicians to monopolize the right to historical truth, ignoring the Ukrainian context." "The Poles perceived us as if they could manage and impose some of their historical parallels on us." 1/3

⚡️ Zelenskyy says Ukraine can force Russia to choose peace with G7 aid. In his evening address, the president stated that Kyiv will be capable of compelling Moscow to seek peace provided it receives the assistance packages recently discussed with international partners during the G7 summit.

When asked how to approach historical disputes with Poland, a majority of Ukrainians (57%) believe that "each country can have its own view of history and should not interfere with how another country sees it." Another 33% think both countries should try to find a common view. 🧵 1/5

Ukraine's Military Intelligence (HUR), warns that Russia is creating the conditions for a potential biological disaster in the occupied part of Kherson region, according to Ukraine’s military intelligence.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s decision not to attend the Ukraine Recovery Conference is a wise choice that “de-escalates relations” between the two countries, Poland’s Minister-Coordinator for Special Services, Tomasz Siemoniak, said in an interview with Polsat News.

There is a lack of understanding about Zelenskyy as well as a narrow view of historical events. Ukraine and Poland have a difficult shared past which goes back centuries, and unfortunately, the Ukrainian perspective is often overlooked. open.substack.com/pub/libraryo...

Crimea is Ukraine 🇺🇦

Frederiksen: The main reason why Ukraine is still standing is Ukraine. “Many of us, have supported them, and that’s good. But everything has been too slow,”

In Zelensky's defense, Nawrocki from the start ran on an anti-Ukrainian platform and demonstratively refused to come to Kyiv despite being invited (when even Orban and Fico did). I think his team figure it is better to flip the table than give Nawrocki free "brownie points" with this stunt

Kyrylo Budanov, head of Ukraine's Presidential Office, and his first deputy, Sergiy Kyslytsya, met with Polish leaders to address issues regarding the Order of the White Eagle but returned empty-handed, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy told the TSN news service.

It doesn't bother me that Zelenskyy speaks his mind and stands up for his country on the world stage. Then again, I'm no politician, which is probably why I understand his actions.

The Ukrainian national anthem was heard in downtown Seattle, USA. A street musician performed it on the saxophone — thousands of kilometers away from Ukraine, but with great respect for our country. Thank you for this heartfelt performance and to everyone who stands with Ukraine.

Nawrocki announced in public that he was considering taking away the order from Zelensky in less than 48 hours after Zelensky gave the UPA name to a military unit. This is not diplomacy. This was an ultimatum, aimed at humiliation of Zelensky.

⚡️ Zelenskyy warns Nawrocki's anti-Ukrainian policies mirror Orbán's. "I believe his decision shows he is fueling hatred toward Ukrainians to fuel his domestic political struggle—much like Orbán. It's a bad path that will end poorly." 1/2

⚡️ BREAKING: Zelenskyy says Ukrainian drones will soon strike 3,000 kilometres into Russia.

In response to Nawrocki's demand that Zelenskyy revoke his decree, Zelenskyy said: "I have never amended such decrees, nor have I ever revoked them," adding that this information was relayed to Poland. "I’m sorry, but this is our question, and Poland must understand this completely."

Zelenskyy: "We are grateful [to Poland], but we live from attack to attack. We do not live from thank you to thank you. [...] I see the sun rising, and we must not forget to thank everyone today. People are simply dying. Can we still protect all of you in between our gratitude? Yes, just in case."

Zelenskyy on returning the Order of the White Eagle: "To be honest, it’s not an issue, even though another president awarded me the order. But nevertheless, it wasn’t for me, it was for the people of Ukraine. And the people of Ukraine—that means our army." 1/3

Many people have questioned President Zelenskyy's decision to grant a military unit's request for an honorary name referencing the UPA. "As president, I must support them. They are the army; they are our defense; and I am the guarantor of the Constitution and the supreme commander-in-chief..." 1/2

Poland's PiS[S] practices "grievance politics," a method to rile the "victim" populace with any wrong to gain support for anti-whatever policies, in this case Ukraine. Fascists use it to great effect. Regular mail. Not even worth returning via envoy or ambassador in person. Burn!!
