“IF you have another election”, such a democratic thing to say

Look at what we can do if we want to. www.bbc.com/news/article...

An unsung success of the EU's Act in Support of Ammunition Production (ASAP):

Enter a new angle where Ukraine will also help us solve the climate crisis by pioneering battery technology 😃

Ukrainian troops shot down several drones in Danish airspace during a combat exchange visit, the General Staff reported. A Ukrainian Sting drone took out a Danish Banshee in a demonstration watched by European officials.

Install the United24 and set up the monthly donations to thank them too

Ukraine is just from another planet

Have the Chinese ever googled Hostomel?

In Portuguese we say “quem te avisa, teu amigo é”

Some may be wondering whether he hasn't already marched into DC 🙃

Step one: draw a line Step two: follow through Halfway there

Swamping the swamp

I wish western media would have equal coverage as when the Russians quickly advanced in Dobropillia. I wish people who at the time used it to force Ukraine into a bad deal would apologize

Are “all fronts” with us in the room?

JD Vance is right: Europe has a problem with freedom of speech

Went from “nato close the sky over Ukraine” to “nato close the sky over yourself”

Indeed. Putin has every incentive to continue probing the defences of NATO members

/1. Romanian Ministry of Defense has made a statement that Russian drone which was flying in Romanian airspace was not intercepted. The drone was escorted till it left Romanian airspace and went to Ukraine.

The European preference does exist… good move Denmark. Significantly boosting European defence and European industry at the same time! More of this please from the others… #MadeinEurope www.fmn.dk/da/nyheder/2...

The logical think to do. And, while we’re at it, Poland and other allies could also protect at least Western Ukraine, allocating resources and moving in not just for training in theory but also in practice. A textbook case of win-win situations, maybe a willing coalition can be found

A great day for Europe!

I can help with the math: Ukraine aid is 0,045% of it. It's also less than 25% of what Europeans + Canada have allocated to PURL, the new extortion scheme where the US sells US weapons to Ukraine and others pay.

Finally, action

Russians dropped a glide bomb on elderly people who were waiting in line for their pensions. More than 20 dead. Please. Don’t look away and don’t be silent. This is all I could ask for

“The irony is that the loudest voices in Brussels are not exporters at all, but large European companies with plants in China serving the local market. Their interests are understandable, yet they do not represent Europe’s trade future.”

One of the most significant stories of Trump’s second term. He is in the process of abandoning longtime allies and playing into Russia and China’s hands by embracing spheres of influence. If you are sitting in Kyiv or Taipei, or in Warsaw or Tokyo, this is chilling www.politico.com/news/2025/09...

Better late than never

Excellent news, Francis’ work is a must

This week on Ukraine This Week, Anna Belokur covers stalled U.S.-Ukraine peace talks, Russia’s massive missile strike on Kyiv that killed 25 civilians, and Moscow’s first reported occupation of villages in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast.

Overnight, Putin's missiles hit the EU mission in Kyiv (in addition to killing many Ukrainian civilians). In a few days, EU foreign ministers will meet and once again refrain from touching the more than E200bn of Russian state money sitting in EU bank accounts. Why? on.ft.com/4oUeKjw

We’re already under attack, part 826482

Russia has successfully concluded another terrorist action against Ukraine, hitting several residential buildings and even damaging the EU delegation in Kyiv. Meanwhile, Ukraine has hit 2 major oil refineries. Both on track to achieve their goals: Ukrainian victory and Russian criminal conviction

He’s wrong about everything, and thinks he’s right about everything. Hard to tell which is worse. The war will end when Russia decides no longer to fight. The US could make that happen with a few simple policies. Instead the Trump administration offers ridiculous analysis and pathetic excuses.

The U.S. knows that trade ain’t just about trade. Just as Brussels should now understand that Competition and Data Protection are not just about markets and privacy. www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...

Hot take: Polish politics is much more relevant for the future of Ukraine than whatever Trump is tweeting

This is an excellent piece... until you stumble upon this sentence: "At a minimum they establish a political call to action that reorients the debate away from regulation towards innovation." There can be no innovation in the EU without regulation:

⚡️Ukraine has upgraded its Neptune missile — here's what we know.

“Most importantly, Europe is risking its political soul. It has put itself in a situation in which leaders cannot say publicly what they are actually trying to do. That is a recipe for distrust and a poison for democracy — and European liberal democracy in particular” @martinsandbu.ft.com 🎯

“🇺🇦 long-range strike operations reinforce that 🇷🇺 cannot win this war. 🇷🇺 can only be handed a victory through a political process, which is why Putin is so desperate to convince the Trump administration about land transfers, to deny presence of foreign troops in 🇺🇦 and to influence 🇺🇦 foreign policy”

Krakow Airport exhibition feels appropriate on Ukraine’s National Flag Day

Chat so im in the production team for Ukraine’s official Burning Man installation this year, essentially it’s a black cloud in the middle of the festival, with very clear messages about ru warcrimes coming soon Grateful to anyone who helps promote it, been working and crashing out for very long

"Tulsi Gabbard, the director of national intelligence, issued a directive weeks ago to the U.S. intelligence community ordering that all information regarding the Russia-Ukraine peace negotiations not be shared with U.S.-allied intelligence partners." www.cbsnews.com/news/gabbard...

“DC had to remake its national security state after other countries developed the atomic bomb; in a similar way, it will have to rebuild its economic security state for a world in which adversaries and allies can also weaponize interdependence” Never miss @abenewman.bsky.social @himself.bsky.social

It's hard to keep up with the diverging narratives out of the White House ecosystem

Why not go full Churchill and stay for 3 weeks?
