Тем, кто читает и говорит по русскому. Про депортации из Украины сейчас и во время СССР.
При участии моей мамы и меня.
Путин - это продолжение Сталина.

It's Alexei @Navalny's birthday today. Stay strong. You are the face and hope of Russia that's currently imprisoned by the KGB.

Russia will be free! #FreeNavalny

34th anniversary of the Tiananmen Square massacre. The world has not forgotten. Freedom fighters will continue to march on!
RT @holmeschan_: A young man holding a copy of "May 35", the book version of Candace Chong's Tiananmen play, was taken for a search, and minutes later taken away on a police van.

He gave a thumbs up gesture as he was led away by officers. https://t.co/v0zhrpyyfN

1st & unique conference: Russian democrats and EU. Democracy in Russia is needed not only for the Russian people, but also for the whole EU. It is the only way leading to a sustainable peace on the European continent. That’s why we need this Dialoque on “The Day After”.

Don’t be afraid to stay on the right side of the history. Ukrainians are fighting for your future as well. Help them to win!

And thinking about the day after Putin - I'm one of those who believe that Russia can become a normal, non-aggressive state. Russians can also live in a democracy. 7/8

We finally have that chance to build sustainable peace. And there is no need to fear a Russian defeat.

Putin lost this war in the first weeks of aggression. He was stopped near Kyiv by brave Ukrainians. Now Putin is just killing.

He is not able to take Ukraine. 6/8

What can and should we do if we want s u s t a i n a b l e peace on the European continent?

Paradoxically, the only answer is arms. All the weapons needed for Ukraine to defend itself and liberate all its lands have to be provided. 5/8

Thankfully, Europe has finally realized what the true face of Putin’s Russia is.

Putin is a 21st war criminal. He is no better than Stalin or Hitler. Hopefully this realization in countries further away from Russia will follow. 4/8

War in Ukraine is not a “Ukrainian crisis”, as war criminal Putin says. This is a war against democracies, a war launched by a dying colonial empire against a free nation.

It’s only Ukraine now that’s protecting Europe from the colonial vultures from the Kremlin. 3/8

While many former empires disintegrated in the 20th century, one colonial empire (the world's largest state up to this day!), retained its colonial nature, though its names kept changing. 2/8

Spent the past week in Rio de Janeiro 🇧🇷 attending the 20th Forte International Security Conference. Spoke on the panel on autocracies vs democracies & international security.

My address focused on dissecting Russia’s colonial nature and its continued imperial mindset. 1/8

June 1 marks Children's Day in Ukraine.

May today be a reminder that so many children are still suffering from war atrocities.

We failed to learn the lessons of history and fully condemn Soviet crimes. If we want sustainable peace in Europe, this time we must evaluate and remember Russia's crimes, past and present. 2/2

Putin signed amendments that legalize forced deportations of Ukrainians from Russia-occupied territories.

Thousands of Ukrainians have been deported into Russia since February 2022. Stalin’s crimes have come back and are now part of Russian law. 1/2

Shamelessly spreading lies. Yet another indication that the current Garibashvili's government is conforming to Russia's propaganda.

President @Zourabichvili_S will address the @europarl_en tomorrow. Hopefully she will send a different message.

@EPPGroup
RT @FormulaGe: Speaking @GLOBSEC conference in Bratislava, Georgian PM Irakli Garibashvili blamed the war in Ukraine on @NATO Enlargement. NATO enlargement and Ukraine’s determination to become member was one of …
