Join my lecture at @penn-rees.bsky.social on #RussiaUkraineWar, misperceptions and #peace options.

My first article for Swiss @defactoexpert.bsky.social Comparing #Swiss and #Ukrainian #neutrality, we conclude: #Ukraine could follow a Swiss example,if #Russia follows the German - it overcomes its imperial wishes and develops into a civilised democratic country. www.defacto.expert/2025/08/15/n...

In light of the coming #peace talks of #Trump & #PutinIsaWarCriminal, it is important to think how #Ukrainians view #peace with #Russia, how Ukrainian public opinion was changing over 3 years of #RussianUkraineWar and how this can influence the end of the war. www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

Our article with Paul D'Anieri on impact of #Ukrainian public opinion on #peace negotiations is out @eepolitics.bsky.social! Sadly,the #war is going on and our research is still relevant.Thanks @oonuch.bsky.social @emmamateo.bsky.social @lenkabustikova.bsky.social www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

OPINION: “The EU is not equipped to deal with outside actors who fundamentally threaten its existence, with whom it cannot find a negotiated solution and peacefully coexist,” writes @garrykasparov.bsky.social and @glandsbergis.bsky.social.

It was great to attend #iccees2025 at @ucl.ac.uk in London. I chaired a great panel, presented my research on #Ukraine's new foreign policy towards #EU after 2022, reconnected with my former colleagues, and got new interesting contacts.

Just arrived to #iccees2025 at @ucl.ac.uk Will present my work on #Ukraine️ foreign policy towards the #EU during #RussiaUkraineWar

⚡️Russia scales up propaganda operations across Africa, Ukrainian intelligence says. By the end of the year, Kremlin propaganda channel RT plans to launch broadcasting in Amharic for an audience in Ethiopia, HUR said on July 13. kyivindependent.com/russia-scale...

Ukraine’s sabotage-ready river drone Ursula now deploys UAVs mid-mission The new Ukrainian Ursula river drone can strike surface targets as kamikaze boat or deploy a UAV for recon in contested river zones. euromaidanpress.com/2025/07/13/u...

I am in Brussels to conduct interviews with policy makers and experts for my research on #Ukraine’s foreign policy towards the #EuropeanUnion after 2022.

HBO made Chornobyl’s tragedy known. But it’s really the story of hundreds of thousands of lives — stories we must remember so history never repeats.

🚨 Russian forces struck Sumy on Good Friday with a drone, hitting a confectionery workshop making Easter cakes, killing one person and injuring another. (1/2)

On Palm Sunday, russian missiles struck the city center of Sumy. Local authorities report numerous dead and injured. This is despicable. Witkoff should be proud of the “peace” his negotiations enable. 📷: Suspilne, city council.

My Sumy...

This week, I am at Oxford Methods Spring School at @ox.ac.uk to learn how to use Statistics in my research.

My hometown...😭

My comments for @jyllands-posten.dk about the #Putin-#Trump call: - Current US stance to provide security guarantees to #Ukraine only after peace is ridiculous. - It is important not to repeat Minsk Agreements failures. No #frozen war,so that #Russia attacks again. jyllands-posten.dk/internationa...

I am surprised that so many people are surprised now. 🧐The world is crazy and anything unexpected can happen. One needs to be prepared for different scenarios and continue working. Or maybe I am not surprised because I am Ukrainian. 💙💛

Your dignity honors the bravery of the Ukrainian people. Be strong, be brave, be fearless. You are never alone, dear President Zelenskyy. We will continue working with you for a just and lasting peace.

The idiocalypse if you will 🧟

On the night of February 27, 2025, russia launched 166 Shahed-type UAVs and imitator drones from multiple directions. Ukrainian forces repelled the attack, downing 90 drones across 10 regions. 72 drone-simulators were lost without harm. Kyiv, Chernihiv, and Sumy regions suffered damage.

Ten years ago today the Russian opposition politician & fierce Kremlin critic Boris Nemtsov was shot dead on a bridge opposite Red Square.

Tomorrow will mark three years since Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine. A day that will forever live in infamy. Today we’re hoisting the Ukrainian flag at our headquarters. It is flying high and proud at the heart of Europe. Where it belongs.

🔴 Six people were injured, including two children, as a result of the Russian attack on Kherson overnight, local authorities report. The search and rescue operation is ongoing, the State Emergency Service reports. 📷: Suspilne

The country falls asleep, the russian mafia wakes up: a barrage of drones is coming again to kill and destroy. Preparing for the sleepless night of loud explosions and air defence work. #makerussiapay

And my article on #EU-Ukraine-Russia interactions during the #annexation of #Crimea is also here. Have a look, if you want to remind yourself how #Russian #aggression against #Ukraine was starting.

A reminder: Vladimir Putin could end the war in Ukraine right now, just by ordering his soldiers to go home. No need for treaties or negotiations.

Well this couldn’t be a more clear message. The art of war [communication]

these webb/hubble images are truly incredible. the fact that we can see the universe in different wavelengths of light and spot so many unseen details is mind-blowing 🌌

Mindset reset: Right now, brave Ukrainians are defending their land & loved ones, at the cost of their sanity, limbs & lives. It’s an existential fight for their democracy & way of life. If the Russians lose, they go home. If the Ukrainians lose, they will be overrun & destroyed. #SlavaUkraini 🇺🇦

I have created my personal web-site. You can find all important information about me here. alinanychyk.com

⚡️ 1 killed, 24 injured in Russian attacks across Ukraine over past day. Russia launched 77 Shahed-type attack and decoy drones overnight, the Air Force reported.

Berlin-based PR agency Lure released a promo campaign for the russian media Meduza, using the photos of Ukrainian war victims to raise funds for those poor exiled russians. What a complete lack of empathy & respect for Ukrainians suffering from *ongoing* genocidal aggression. Shame on Lure & Meduza.
