The documentary was panned for its hagiographic take on Kazakhstan’s longtime dictator. As it turns out, a foundation controlled by Nazaryaev paid for its production. https://www.occrp.org/en/investigations/sidebar/oliver-stone-documentary-about-kazakhstans-former-leader-nazarbayev-was-funded-by-a-nazarbayev-foundation via @occrp

RT @yarotrof: Fostering among Ukrainians, regardless of whether they speak Ukrainian or Russian at home, a visceral, generational hostility to Russia will be Vladimir Putin’s most lasting legacy.

Important thread from @GresselGustav
RT @GresselGustav: 1/ As 🇷🇺 missiles rain down on civilian targets all over 🇺🇦, I get questions what to do now. Some thoughts as a former air defence officer on this. But beware, information about the attacks is limited, and I would not say it is over yet. Air alarms are still ongoing.

The deafening silence by Russians abroad regarding this criminal regime and its actions is going to be a serious problem for them everywhere they are.
Whining instead about visas when this continues will only increase suspicion, contempt and revulsion with every atrocity.
RT @GlasnostGone: Hello world: This is your daughter going to school. Going to work. Going shopping. This is Russia targeting civilians in Kyiv #Ukraine.

This. Journalists get it together please.
RT @djrothkopf: I just saw one DC news outlet referred to Putin's wave of terror attacks across Ukraine today as "Russia's revenge." Revenge? For Ukraine's efforts to defend itself against a brutal invasion, to protect its people? Using the word "revenge" not only validates the attack...

A failure to do justice through the ICC will merely guarantee that extra-legal methods will be used until the war criminals are all hunted down. This will last for decades upon decades.
This should be incentive enough for the ICC to do it right.

Attention (AGAIN), why do allow Russian troll astroturfing to lock @sarahAshtonLV?
Why can't you figure this out?

This is a DISGRACE. The day when she reports on russia's terrorism, @TwitterSupport locks her out of her account?
BRING SARAH BACK. NOW!!!!!

Read this, all of you who make your money writing about Ukraine.
RT @chessninja: Don't call things that the Russian military was doing already "retaliation" after every setback. Makes it sound like quid pro quo. They were already bombing the hell out of Zaporizhzhia. And Putin's way of war has always been total destruction of everything he couldn't control.

Good thread from former US diplomat and ambassador to Ukraine, @steven_pifer
RT @steven_pifer: Some quick thoughts on #Putin’s nuclear threats:
Should take it seriously when leader of #Russia, a nuclear-armed state, makes nuclear threats. Ignore @mfa_russia’s Zakharova’s “what Russian nuclear threat?” line; she knows and we know what Putin implies by “all means." 1/6
