Методи, якими росія діє сьогодні — окупація територій, примусове переміщення людей та знищення ідентичності, — не є новітнім винаходом. Це пряме продовження імперського сценарію часів єкатєріни II.

Ukraine is taking back territory, and Trump is trying to bail out Putin — the one assignment he has always taken seriously. (Note: this essay by Phillips O'Brien is from last week. See his page for this week's update as well) phillipspobrien.substack.com/p/weekend-up...

Germany has a serious problem with russia collaborators. The German retail chain Metro transferred $12.4 million to the 'People's Front' fund in Russia. The 'Everything for Victory!' fund. These funds are intended for the purchase of equipment in the 'special operation' zone.

Germans arrested a Ukrainian citizen in the state of Brandenburg for suspected espionage on behalf of the russians. He allegedly collected relevant information, including on the production of armored vehicles, ammunition, as well as on military personnel and facilities on NATO's eastern flank.

Latvia's expulsion of Ragozin has once again shone the spotlight on other commentators who advocate Ukraine's surrender, despite vehemently protesting against being labelled pro-russian. This episode should teach journalists that quoting both sides harms Ukraine while aiding the russian aggressor.

“Mom, am I going to die?” 4-year-old Herman asked his mom this question during a russian attack. He turns 5 in early November, and his biggest birthday wish is for the war to end. No child should ever have to ask this question. Help protect Ukraine’s sky: u24.gov.ua/sky-defense?...

no nostalgia hits as hard as when what you’re longing for is your life still untouched by war I started writing this piece being sure there would be something I would’ve said to myself-before-war, to warn, to prepare - only to realise margogontar.substack.com/p/what-would...

Moronic German voters are reaping what they have sown: The pro-russian BSW party and the neo-Nazi AfD are set to pass their first joint substantive resolution in the Saxony-Anhalt state parliament. The resolution will call for aid to Ukraine to be stopped and sanctions against russia to be lifted.

This is the third of the ten video meditations I recorded in Kharkiv, Ukraine, close to the Russian border. The first couple were about courage and cowardice, which led me to the importance of moral categories in general. snyder.substack.com/p/moral-lang...
I think this screenshot is an excellent illustration of russian political opposition, and the comments - how westerners see it. Are the communists genuinely against putin? Maybe. Are they genuinely against the genocide in Ukraine and russian imperial was of conquest? Hell no 🤣
Approximately 60 people were detained during a CPRF rally in Moscow marking the anniversary of the 1993 White House battle. Protesters chanted slogans calling for fair elections and against the United Russia party. ru.themoscowtimes.com/2026/10/04/v...

Two masked 'patriots' holding signs at a demonstration against migrants in Lithuania. One sign reads, 'A Lithuanian Lithuania is better for business than cheap labour'; the other reads, 'Deport criminal foreigners'. A reporter tries to get a statement.Turns out that the neo-Nazis only speak russian.

This thread provides a detailed analysis of russian infiltration of the German logistics sector. Apparently,the Germans do not conduct background checks; otherwise, this russian imperialist would have been sacked and deported. Instead, she is cosying up to state leaders in their social media feeds.

For left- and right-wing parties in Europe and the US who advocate the 'right to resistance' for Palestinian Arabs but oppose the same for Ukraine, supporting dialogue with the genocidal russians instead, reports like these expose their policies as severely anti-Ukrainian, bigotted and inhumane.

The systematic bombing of civilians in Kyiv and other Ukrainian cities mirrors the Nazi terror campaign during the Blitz in terms of both intention and effect. The civilized world must unite to stop and defeat the russians. In attempting to destroy others, they have chosen their own destruction.

Even today, civilised people find it hard to accept that ordinary russians living among them harbour imperialistic attitudes and support russia's war of conquest. One reason for this is that russians have behaved like a colonial empire for centuries yet have never been perceived as such in the West.

Why does the German press so often reverse the roles of victims and perpetrators when reporting on russian war crimes? In this case, for example, foreign mercenaries are described as victims rather than russian collaborators. This victimhood narrative is complicit in the russian crime.

🇺🇦 Due to long periods without independent statehood, Ukraine’s international voice was frequently overshadowed or co-opted by Russian and Soviet narratives. Many prominent Ukrainian figures were historically appropriated by Russia. Read more 👀 theukrainianreview.info/cultural-dip...
