It isn't that other countries "didn't know" -- some just didn't care -- but the worst have been the ones to cover it up lest it harm the possibility of making money, i.e., selling out your own citizens, possibly their lives, all so that Russia wouldn't be angry.

As a Lutheran, I don't quite understand why the "Peace Representative" of the German Lutheran Church, @EKD, thinks genocide and rape of Ukrainians by the Russian military should be supported.
"Let them just be massacred", is that the idea?
RT @RugeBoris: Bischof Kramer, Friedensbeauftragter der @EKD, vertritt die Auffassung, Deutschland solle keine Waffen an die #Ukraine liefern. Die EKD sollte deutlich machen, dass er -nicht- für evang. Christen in 🇩🇪 spricht. …

Thread on “tough guy” wimp Putin vs Zelenskyi
RT @mbk_center: Zelensky travels to a frontline Bakhmut, currently the most dangerous site of the fiercest battles. Ukraine's President embodied courage and resilience numerous times during the war. He remained in Kyiv, visited the frontline, and met troops and wounded soldiers 1/9

An exceptionally clear and well reasoned analysis from @nataliabugayova. There are some leaders who need to read this paper before they step in it again.

RT @nataliabugayova: My latest with @TheStudyofWar. US should recognize that Russia's intent vs. Ukraine is inflexible. We should stop expending resources trying to change a reality we do not control and focus on what we can shape plenty: denying Russia’s ability to wage a war against Uk…

Another one for the Hague
RT @Euan_MacDonald: 🇷🇺 propagandist calls for genocide of Ukrainians - says aim must be to destroy 🇺🇦 state, using Russian language as a tool to capture country. Pure imperialism, from "mainstream" Russian medium - the kind of poisonous, vile nonsense Russians are exposed to daily.
