The missile attacks on civilians, the assassination threats, the promise to ethnically cleanse Ukraine, all on my twitter feed this AM:
Russians say these things because they believe in impunity, that they will never be held responsible, that Russia will never give them up. 1/

"Russian-backed separatists" discover eight years after the fact (or fake), what being "Russia-backed" means: no males between 25 and 55 are left. A whole area bereft of men.
Shame on all who ever used that ridiculous term. Looking at you, EU and Western media.
RT @adnashmyash: Who is really killed most of citizens of Donetsk for last 8 years?
Maybe "Nazi Ukrainians"? NOT.

Typical. A criminal case based on a video they doctored themselves.
The Russian criminal justice system.
RT @XSovietNews: Russia opened a criminal case against Lindsey Graham for apparently saying to Zelensky "The Russians are dying, and it's the best money we've ever spent." Reuters obtained the full video and found that the two phrases were said at different times. https://t.co/9gUR3GeecX

On the bright side, Finland gets to save a lot of money that would be better spent on defence.

Then again, with a full-fledged genocidal war of aggression in Europe waged by one OSCE member against another, there really isn't much to celebrate about the "Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe"
The OSCE has been useless already for a quarter century.

Well, there go the celebrations planned for Helsinki in 2025 for the 50th anniversary of the "Helsinki Final Act".
The real "Final Act" of what, thanks to Russia and Belarus, has become a theatre of the absurd, comes two years early.
RT @noaasm_: In 2024, #Estonia is supposed to hold the presidency of @osce and now Russia and Belarus is against it. According to the rules of @OSCE, the presidency of it has to be approved by all 57 member states.

When it comes to digitization, countries like Estonia are 15-20 years ahead of Germany and France. Yet, still stuck in the FAX era, the latter determine European tech and innovation policy.
When it comes to innovation, *they* are the problem, not "America" or "GAFA".

"The problem is that the countries making the tech rules aren’t the nations leading on tech."
Do read. "Old Europe" these days isn't just about security policy. It's also about tech leadership, something that has nothing to do with country size.

The EU doesn't need to ban Twitter.
All it has to do is remove the intermediary liability limitations on it as a social media company, @VeraJourova.
RT @MacaesBruno: Twitter’s ban in Europe is now so likely the smart money is funding an alternative

See you in the Hague, war criminal.
RT @armscontrol_rus: 🇷🇺@RusGavrilov:
Russia’s successes on the battlefield provoke hysterical reactions in 🇺🇦 and the "#collectiveWest", which have taken a forced course to raise stakes in the conflict. https://t.co/E4YxQY39Js

Super, tõeline uuriv ajakirjandus @Martinlaineolen ja @holger_r-lt soome poliitikute, vene oligarhhide ja eesti kummaliste firmade seostest.
Ning ka Ukrainas sõdivate ja piinamisi korraldanud vene palgasõdurifirma omanikust -- kes on ka Soome kodanik.
