This is what the Rhine and the Loire look like today… and politics is still full of climate deniers and so-called leaders hesitating to take concrete action.
Enough ifs and buts. We need to wean ourselves off from fossil fuels now !

Frontal crash 🇵🇱🇪🇺 ahead…
Poland signed up to the rule of law when joining EU and Polish people massively backed it. PiS party politics cannot undo this and destroy the fundamentals of our Union !

Agree… but then we cut ordinary Russians off from our societies…
Extending the list of sanctions to the whole backbone of the Putin regime (more then 6000 = Navalny list) would be a better option !
RT @maxseddon: Finnish PM @MarinSanna: “It’s not right that at the same time as Russia is waging an aggressive, brutal war of aggression in Europe, Russians can live a normal life, travel in Europe, be tourists. It’s not right.”

2 years on, don’t forget the drama of brave Belarusians who rose up for the same freedoms Ukraine is fighting for, still forced to live under an illegitimate and brutal regime

Nobody in Europe want to enslave the proud Polish people… or it has to be Kaczyński himself by constantly undermining the rule of law and the democratic principles in Poland… copying Putin’s Russia !
RT @notesfrompoland: Poland "has no reason to fulfil our obligations towards the EU" because Brussels has broken agreements, says Kaczyński.
He warned there is a “German-Russian plan to rule Europe” and that the opposition is worki…

Amnesty’s false equivalence on the Russian invasion backfires spectacularly…
Never be on the side of war criminals, never give them excuses, never compromise the essential truth: Putin wants to destroy Ukraine and the people who live there !
RT @mission_russian: When a civilian 🏠 is used for military purposes, it turns into a legitimate target for a precision strike.
Ukraine continues to do it, but now even @amnesty can’t han…

We never faced down Putin, so he only became more brutal… We do NOT want to wait and find out what’s next.
Putin must LOSE his war !

77 years after Hiroshima we have learnt nothing: We are indeed “playing with a loaded gun” like never before as @antonioguterres warns
Atomic weapons are the one thing that keeps Putin relevant… and we must get rid of those bombs together with Putin…

Orbán meets with Trump & does Putin's work..calling for the U.S. to negotiate with Russia to decide Ukraine's future.
A member of the European Council, but a traitor to 🇪🇺 & the people of Ukraine. When will #EUCO say it clearly..not in our name!

Dictatorships cannot accept or even imagine people wanting to live in freedom… instead they want to “re-educate”… another word for oppression and propaganda.
Be warned, Taiwan, Ukraine, Europe…

Sovereignty for sale !
Putin’s Western troops are linking up to try to do what Putin himself cannot: divide those who cherish freedom and democracy over authoritarianism and corruption. SAD !

Chinese threats to Taiwan, their destruction of democracy in Hong Kong & genocide of the Uyghurs show the need for a united & strong 🇪🇺 and alliance with 🇺🇸
We need to be able to defend the interests of liberal democracy & stand up to threats from Beijing, Moscow or elsewhere !
RT @StuartKLau: China just announced live-fire exercises surrounding Taiwan between Thursday and Sunday, requesting ships and flights avoid these areas:
