I have no words. SHAME!
Rubio: “We’ve invited Putin to the G20.” You’re an indicted war criminal, a mafia dictator, a bloody invader, and biggest monster of 21st century? Your army's committed thousands of war crimes? You’re helping Iran kill Americans? No problem, US will roll out red carpet for you!

I feel strongly about this, plus it's personal (Brexit has affected my family profoundly). This petition seems to be doing well, but could do with more shares and signatures if you're eligible (British Citizen or UK Resident) and feel strongly about this too. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/74...

“Not just Putin — Russia.” In this powerful statement, Garry Kasparov @garrykasparov.bsky.social calls out the collective responsibility of Russian society for the war & genocide in #Ukraine. "This is a fascist dictatorship —&crucially,it’s supported by the overwhelming majority of the population"

This quote from the article by Peter Pomeranzev&Johanna Peiper describes the current situation well: "But this idea that Putin will be satisfied with some haggling over territory misreads Russia’s aims, which are to destroy Ukraine’s right to exist independently, politically and culturally.

Senator Jeff Merkley raised suspicions that Trump could be a Russian agent, citing his promotion of Russian propaganda, halting military aid to Ukraine, and leaking negotiation details. In response, Trump supporters just repeat empty slogans. Full video: t.me/wartranslated

This narrative must change. Trump has not paused military aid to Ukraine because of a bad meeting, but because of disagreement about the political substance. Trump wants Ukraine to surrender, and he thinks this step will do the job.
US President Donald Trump has paused military aid to Ukraine following his clash with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy last week, a White House official, deepening the fissure between the two one-time allies reut.rs/4inRc2v

Unbelievable. Donald Trump has been invited to a state visit to the UK. We should not be rolling out the red carpet to celebrate this man. Agree? Add your name to the petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/no...

Please, everyone consider donating to u24.gov.ua/ or war.ukraine.ua . We need to show Ukraine that some in the US still support democracy.

Our new commentary with @maxbergmann.bsky.social: "Accepting Russian conditions is not justified by the current situation on the ground. Sustained Western assistance to Ukraine has strong prospects of ensuring a stalemate to protect European/Ukrainian security." www.csis.org/analysis/bey...

The Russian agression against Ukraine, this is also more than 7000 Ukrainian prisoners in Russia, in conditions not respecting Hulan Rights. You have to watch this film by Evguenia Tchirikova ("Activatica"). www.youtube.com/watch?v=aHld...

Read this. @economist.com's @shashj.bsky.social schooling the VP on Ukraine. The Economist got themselves barred from the White House press corps already before this... one suspects they won't get an invitation back anytime soon!
To spare you all from Twitter, here’s @shashj.bsky.social’s great rebuttal.

As being “free to make our own trade deals” has delivered the square root of jack shit and, as Brexiters still can’t tell us what EU regulations they want to scrap, closer alignment with the EU should be a no-brainer. Great work @bestforbritain.bsky.social www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...
