1 year ago, I visited Bucha & Irpin in UA, newly liberated towns. The destruction, mass grave, torture chambers & testimonies of war crimes by Russian occupiers changed me forever. Those responsible must be held accountable & Ukraine must liberate its entire territory!

RT @EFAparty: Less than 24 hours after being detained in Barcelona shortly after entering Spain for the first time in 5 years. We are glad to see that @ClaraPonsati is free to return to Brussels to carry out her duties as an MEP in today's plenary.

Democracy is not a crime.

RT @aleixsarri: Clara Ponsatí, Catalan MEP, arrested in Barcelona despite its parliamentary immunity. A new and outrageous violation of political rights by Spain against the Catalan people. Brussels, wake up, Madrid's authoritarian practices are harming the whole European project.

Clara Ponsatí @ClaraPonsati terug in Catalonië na 5 jaar ballingschap in Schotland en Brussel... en meteen aangehouden! Ondanks hervorming van het Spaanse strafrecht. Tot el nostre suport, Clara! Laat haar vrij, stop politieke vervolging! @Elnacionalcaten https://www.elnacional.cat/en/politics/clara-ponsati-returns-home-from-exile-appears-barcelona_997662_102.html

RT @FirouzMahvi: #Belgium Senator @markdemesmaeker :
People of Iran during this uprising have shown to the whole world that they want a regime change. They have rejected going back to the dictatorship

8 yrs ago, I took these photos in eastern Ukraine. Russian troops attacked Debaltsevo despite the Minsk II agreement. Ukrainian defenders retreated to Bachmut. I was there, I'll never forget their eyes. Now there are only ruins left. The 'Russkiy Mir' is dark and destructive.

De beelden van Bakhmut of Mariupol doen me denken aan die van Ieper en Passchendaele in de Groote Oorlog in Flanders Field. Ik richtte me tot de Russische delegatie in het slotdebat vd @oscepa sessie in Wenen: “Uw oorlog is even zinloos en vergeefs. Verlaat Oekraïne!” @de_NVA

The images of Bakhmut or Mariupol remind me of those of Ypres or Passchendaele in Flanders Fields, WWI. I addressed the Russian delegation during the final debate of the @oscepa winter session in Vienna: “Your war is equally senseless and in vain! Leave Ukraine now!” @de_NVA

Up to 14,000 Ukrainian children kidnapped by Russia. Nazi methods! Russian war criminals are in this hall in Vienna for the #OSCE PA session. Hope next time we see them will be in The Hague. 👇#RussiaIsATerroristState #StandWithUkraine @de_NVA @UKRinOSCE

Tot 14.000 kinderen uit Oekraïne ontvoerd door Rusland! Nazi methodes. Russische oorlogsmisdadigers zitten hier in de zaal voor de #OVSE PA zitting, ze kunnen het maar geweten hebben👇

1 year after the full scale invasion of Ukraine, Russian war criminals were able to attend #OSCE PA session in Vienna. Grotesque to discuss security in Europe with them in one room, told them their place is in the dock of special war tribunal! #RussiaInvadedUkraine @UKRinOSCE

1 Jaar geleden begon de Russische oorlog tegen Oekraïne. In de marge van de OVSE zitting in Wenen te gast bij de Oekraïense collega’s met een voltallige Belgische delegatie. Slava Ukraini!
