More Russian war crimes. Trafficking children.
We know who is in charge of this. She even gets interviewed in the Western media.
Revolting.

The armies are amassing.
RT @GeneralStaffUA: 🇵🇱 🇺🇦 Polskie armatohaubicy samobieżne "Krab" wzmocniły zdolności obronne Ukrainy. Zwrotność, szybkostrzelność i, co najważniejsze, celność pomogły w pozbyciu się rosyjskiego sprzętu na froncie. https://t.co/y9tSZf3w6h

RT @MoscowTimes: Conceptualist Ilya Kabakov is considered by many to be the most important Russian artist of last 50 years.

Cry "Russophobia! Russophobia!" all you want. What Russia has done in Ukraine has rendered "Russophobia" a quaint and risible term. It bothers no one.
So pray, Russia, that justice be done. Or be prepared for generations of "Russophobia", shunned by the civilized world. End.

spat upon, ostracized. What saved Germans from that fate after WW2, Russians don't realize was Nürnberg. Imperfect as it was, it more or less satisfied the need for justice. And Israel got Eichmann anyway.
But without justice, Russians will be pariahs, kept out, unwanted. 4/

Russians should fear this. Vigiliante-ism will hit Russians everywhere, indiscriminately. HUR will take care of the worst perpetrators of war crimes -- the torturers, the rapists, the missile firers, and not with jail terms.
The rest of "русский мир" will be despised, 3/

The problem is, they don't know that they had better hope for trials. The legal system ultimately is to prevent the беспредел of vigilante-ism.
When you don't have rule of law, even internationally, and justice is denied and people will take it in their own hands. 2/

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.

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.
