RT @AndriusTapinas: Lithuanians are on fire. After providing Ukraine with marine drone "PEACE Дец" we raised another $250K for a second one named "Yes to peace" or "PEACE Да"

And we have already 40K euro towards the third one "Duke of Peace" ("PEACE Дюк")

It will be the best trio since 3 tenors.

Disinformation is the basis of Russia’s aggression against Ukraine. And for years, we allowed Russia's lies to flourish unchallenged.

This war is a war for truth. The tumor of lies in the Kremlin needs to be eradicated. 3/3

It moved from the Red Soviet terror to the Mafia state. Now it's turned into a terrorist state. & we missed an opportunity to set a foundation for the end of communism. Soviet crimes were never properly evaluated.
This has created fertile ground for historical disinformation. 2/3

Key points from my address in Prague on European Remembrance in the context of🇷🇺's aggression:

What is happening did not appear out of nowhere. The war started long before February&long before 2014. It's the consequence of decades-long transformation that was happening in🇷🇺. 1/3

People's lives are at stake, whether they live in NATO territory or outside of it. And the 🇷🇺regime is responsible for those killed.

🇷🇺's war has crossed borders. This only proves once again how important it is to help Ukraine win.

#ATACMS need to be sent Ukraine ASAP. 3/3

🇷🇺is deliberately launching such massive attacks to put enormous strains on 🇺🇦's air defences.

🇺🇦managed to deflect most of the missiles. But even then 1mm people were left w/o electricity, a lot critical critical infrastructure was destroyed. Casualties in Kyiv are reported.2/3

In any case, two people in #Poland were killed yesterday as a direct result of the brutal war waged by #terrorist Russia.
Russia fired ∼90-100 missiles into Ukrainian territory yesterday. It was one of the biggest bombings of #Ukraine since the start of the war.

Berlin wall fell 33 years ago. But change was already underway before the fall.

In Lithuania, we were tearing down this wall from within. The #BalticWay happened less than 3 months before the the wall was torn down.

I am happy to have been the part of this change.

Glad to see that Yuliia is finally safe and sound. And glad to finally have her with us in person at the @europarl_en.

We will continue to raise your voice.
And we will help make Putin pay for the hell on Earth that he unleashed.

A warm meeting with Yuliia Paievska, also known as Taira. A real life heroine, one of the defenders of #Mariupol.

Last April it was Yuliia's daughter, Anna Sofia, who came to address the @europarl_en to help save her mother who was being tortured in Russian captivity. 1/2

Together with 11 colleagues from @europarl_en we just sent a letter to 🇬🇪 President @Zourabichvili_S asking her to issue a presidential decree and pardon @NikaGvaramia.
