Perhaps read this again.
RT @POLITICOEurope: For years prior to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, Poland and the Baltic states had warned Western leaders of the risk Vladimir Putin posed.
They didn’t listen.

I've always found it bizarre that with all the students from developing countries in Russia who have experienced the crude racism in that country, there has been so little coverage of it.
RT @MacaesBruno: If people in India, South Africa or Brazil knew what it said about Africans, Indians or South Americans in Russia (particularly by the elites), there would be no sympathy for Russia left…

Grim Reading.
The threat from Russia to Europe will not end with the end of its war against Ukraine.
Not the way the country is going today.

Yes, @RikeFranke... and continue to this day in think tanks and the AA to patronize and demonize, cast as primitives and russophobes, all those in the "Zwischenländer" between Germany and Russia, "who just don't get it" but whose security concerns turned out to be all too real.
RT @RikeFranke: What a glorious rant by Stephan Bierling in @Security_Table .

Just a reminder, when the War-Criminal-in-Chief talks about a "Christmas Truce", in Ukraine, Christmas is celebrated on 25 December.

The hypocrisy of a "Christmas" ceasefire announced today -- denied three weeks ago but when things are suddenly going badly and desperately needed by Russia to beef up its rapist army... suddenly they're all Christian again.
RT @TheStudyofWar: NEW: #Putin’s announcement that Russian forces will conduct a 36-hour ceasefire in observance of Russian Orthodox Christmas is likely an information operation intended to damage #Ukraine’s reputation. https://www.understandingwar.org/backgrounder/russian-offensive-campaign-assessment-january-5-2023

Photography as fine as his writing, from David @dpatrikarakos. A thread I urge you to look at now and read when it appears, from one of the best, most perceptive people writing on war today.

Block common policies, the EU blocks you.
Simple.
Nothing to negotiate.
Least of all "membership"
Listen to Fleet Mac instead.

How can a regime that does this even be worthy of consideration as a European country?
