Europa "verlengt het conflict in Oekraïne" zegt Rusland terwijl het een supermarkt in Charkiv bombardeert:

‼️In Kharkiv, Russia struck Budmen hypermarket

Russia could end the war today. Continuing the bloodshed is Russia’s choice

Turnout in Israel is currently 44.9% — the highest ever recorded at 2pm in Israeli history. I'm optimistic this means the end of Netanyahu. Polling won't have reflected just how many will decide on the day that they cannot vote for the man who presided over the biggest slaughter of Jews since WW2.

More photos from Trump Jr's luxury hunting trip in Mongolia with Putin crony that only two months before paid for an island party for the entire Trump family.

Elon Musk is a Nazi and uses his profits from Tesla, Starlink, and Twitter to fund fascist organizations that spread fascism and incite violent riots around the world. If you use his products or services, you’re literally funding fascism! #BoycottTesla #BoycottStarLink #ElonMuskIsANazi

The most significant strikes by Russia in the morning attack on Kyiv were three hits on the Southern Bridge. Again all traffic is suspended and the bridge is likely to be out of action for quite a long time, but is in no danger of collapse, despite the huge hole.

I would temper my expectations about a new era coming to Serbia. The election winners have virtually the same geopolitical positions as Vucic; most previous election winners (Vucic included!) ran on anticorruption; the student movement is above all populist. Good luck to them but let’s be realistic.

Polish FM Radosław Sikorski: "There is a myth that has been successfully planted in the West that Russia always wins. But things don't always go their way. They lost the Crimean War. They lost the war against Japan. They emerged from World War I with their tails between their legs.

1/ Russians shouldn't listen to the American pro-Russian commentator and convicted pedophile Scott Ritter, warns a Russian analyst. Ritter's claims of an imminent Ukrainian collapse are a fantasy without a basis in fact, he says. ⬇️

1/2 Meanwhile, after the second wave of missiles overnight, it's thought Putin's horde launched about 20 ballistic missiles at Kyiv. Only two were shot down, and neither of those with Patriot missiles, so it seems Ukraine is again completely without its best defensive systems.

This is what Kyiv's Pivdennyi (Southern) Bridge looks like after a Russian attack. Residents are crossing it on foot to get to work. Last night,Russia attacked Ukraine with 16 ballistic missiles&more than 280 drones. Kyiv was the main target. Sixteen people were injured and one person was killed.

Putin today opened the Gas Exporting Countries' forum in Moscow. The Russian dictator revealed they are looking to work with the US on projects in the Arctic. Putin soon handed over to Iran's PM for mutual "back-slapping."

Russia's State news agency gave this version of Putin's chat with Norway's PM + Finland's President. Note right at the top Putin gets in his favourite phrase "root causes" of his invasion of a peaceful neighbour. At least we learned Abu Dhabi looks set to host the UKR-RU talks

My take on the Stubb, Støre, and Putin call: There should be no talks while Russia refuses to compromise. Yet since Trump insists on fake negotiations, having Stubb and Støre take the lead over Witkoff and Kushner is much better, especially as it was coordinated with Zelensky

“Flávio has given up. He’s terrified. He is worried his father will die in jail, that he himself will be jailed this week and that he may have a long prison term ahead.”

The leaders of Norway and Finland today called Putin "as leaders and not as representatives of the EU" Pres Alexander Stubb + PM Jonas Garh Støre had spoken with Zelenskyy before and after speaking with Moscow's indicted war criminal. Stubb said "Direct dialogue is necessary to end the war."

While Trump is blocking delivery of air defenses that European nations purchased for Europe his piece of shit son is on a several day hunting trip with one of Putin's cronies, the same obe that paid for the Trump family's 2-day island party. It's all incredible and MAGA will cheer for more.

📰 Hoofdredactioneel commentaar Wall Street Journal: "De snelste manier om een ​​einde te maken aan het doden, is door het bereik van Starshield enkele honderden kilometers uit te breiden tot in Rusland; zo kan er druk worden uitgeoefend op Vladimir Poetin (...)"

President of the Republic of Finland Alexander Stubb and Prime Minister of Norway Jonas Gahr Støre made a phone call with putin on Tuesday 27 October in Helsinki. The call was a follow-up of the meeting in Oslo on 20 October and held in consultation with #Ukraine. Press release 📎

One other story from occupied Kherson that needs highlighting - Russia up to its old Soviet tricks again, forcing out locals and re-populating with Russians. Of course not even Russians move to Oleshky, the town abandoned by the occupiers, and I'm certain NewsMax won't raise it.

2/2 The bad news is that the Americans promised an independent, journalistic TV crew would be allowed to film everything in Oleshky, but we got neither, as Trump's lickspittle channel NewsMax was given the opportunity. So far, nothing from them at all.

1/2 Probably the first thing to report should be the situation in Oleshky. The humanitarian ceasefire began 10 hours ago and is holding so far, as aid agencies look to get food + medicines in to the town in Kherson region and people out.

In the New Testament, Matthew 19:24 states that "it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God." Yet MAGA Christians support Trump, who is doing exactly the opposite: he favours the super-rich and is scrapping healthcare for the poor!

Day 1707 of the war in Ukraine and here's the latest daily thread. It's one of those days when things are a little more awkward than usual, but I'll do my best to maintain the high standards you expect. Fact checked news & analysis , always delivered with humanity and humour.

Olena Kushchenko reflects on the daily challenges of raising a child amid Russia's war against Ukraine, while her husband is serving in the army. For @texty.org, Olena describes life in a Ukrainian city as a struggle for survival rather than a chance to truly live. platformraam.nl/uit-andere-m...

Europe will always stand up for the protection of its borders. This is why today we propose to strengthen Frontex. So it can support Member States whenever and wherever needed. Including on returns, with the mandate and capabilities that this new reality demands. link.europa.eu/kyDnMR

Reactie Poetin op het belletje van 🇫🇮 Stubb en 🇳🇴 Støre: - Vrede is onmogelijk zonder het wegnemen van de 'root causes' van de 🇷🇺 oorlog, oftewel het bestaan van Oekraïne als soeverein land. - Partners van Oekraïne verlengen de Russische oorlog door Oekraïne te steunen. 🔗 en.apa.az/cis-countrie...

Elon Musk has spent more money on politics in the last 2 years than George Soros has spent in his entire lifetime.

Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski: "I agree with President Kwaśniewski, and Norman Davis has been saying this for 30 years, that the Soviet Union minus Ukraine is Russia as a non-superpower. To be a global power, Russia needs Ukraine."

Europe is warming at double the global rate. To become truly climate resilient, we need to adjust and learn along the way.

Good morning☕ #Bluesky💙🤝 #Ukraine #MAGA US 👇 @avalaina.bsky.social Oct 21 I have read dozens of outraged posts because the #US special envoy #Witkoff called #Putin a "humanist". But no one is writing about the fact that the American negotiators are simply not doing their job. Let me explain peace

De president van Finland en de premier van Noorwegen hebben de wegens oorlogsmisdaden gezochte 🇷🇺 dictator Vladimir Poetin gebeld om "rechtstreeks boodschappen" over te brengen over toekomstige onderhandelingen om de Russische oorlog tegen Oekraïne te helpen beëindigen. 🧵

⚡️The President of Finland and the PM of Norway held a phone call with Putin-President Stubb's office The call was initiated by the European leaders themselves.The statement from the office emphasizes that Alexander Stubb&Jonas Gahr Støre spoke strictly on behalf of their respective countries,

Putin has been in power for 20 years longer than Zelensky

🇺🇦 Zelensky: "We wachten al bijna een maand op de goedkeuring van de heer Hegseth voor raketten voor Patriot- en NASAMS-systemen. Ik heb ons team opgedragen dit opnieuw aan de Amerikaanse kant aan te kaarten."

Last night, Russia attacked #Ukraine with Iskander-M and S-400 ballistic missiles, as well as 280 drones. Kyiv.Two fires broke out in non-residential buildings in the Obolonskyi district. In the Desnianskyi district, a university building, dormitories, residential buildings, and cars were damaged.
