I see Putin is once again threatening us with a good time. Do it! Cut the gas. The sooner we stop sending money to Moscow the better

The French singing La Marseillaise in a nuclear submarine base is deeply symbolic.
France built its own independent nuclear deterrent after WWII to never again have to suffer a similar humiliation. Now France is offering to ”advance” that deterrent to other European countries.
Note to Europeans: The US is (once again) firing all these precious missiles that are also earmarked for use in a contingency in Europe.🙃
If you need further proof that US extended deterrence in Europe is becoming more and more porous by the day.
Today, people are rightly focusing on Ukraine. But it’s also worth taking a moment to think about the monumental stupidity and failure of Putin and his subordinates, who started the longest, most destructive European war since WW2 even though there was no threat to Russia. 🧵

Were the English out partying last night because they’re playing like they’ve all got hangovers
There is no room for the russian flag in the Olympics games. This rag represents death, rape, and destruction. It is a symbol of aggression and genocide.
Trigger warning
I strongly suggest everyone reads this, not just Australians. As horrific as this is, it will not be an isolated case by any means. As for the people of Balmoral that sided with the rapists, take a good, hard look at yourselves.
The town that turned its back on a rape victim
The UN was founded because the previous 40 years had seen the most destructive conflicts in human history. The UN charter is written in the blood of millions.
Rubio's speech at the MSC was not (and should not be) in the least bit reassuring for Europe, the fundamental substance not different to Vance last year
This US Admin and Europe no longer share the same values
This will continue to throw up risks in Ukraine, Greenland, big tech etc
Yay you’re back happy 😃
Are you a supporter of Ukraine who has the ability to purchase a few dozen high-end directional microphones? They would be utilized to save lives from drone attacks. Please DM me if you can help, and for more details. Looking specifically for the Infineon IM73A135V01XTSA1.

A few quick thoughts on the reporting and the reality of the Trump administration’s foreign policy.🧵
This is a red line. If we let the United States force Denmark to give up territory by threatening an invasion, we're done. There are no good options here, but we have to stand with Denmark
Ok complete farce it is
It’s gone totally mad, not sure if Senegal is going to stay on the pitch for the penalty
If you listen very carefully, you can hear Charles de Gaulle screaming I BLOODY TOLD YOU SO from some rural French cemetery.
1/ Something which I don't think gets articulated clearly often enough is that a system where countries generally respect international sovereignty and territorial integrity is not pure charity or morality by the United States, but in its direct interests.
Despite it being the strongest bear.
Flying to Minneapolis tomorrow to cover the ICE raids for News Agents, what is unfolding and the politics which flows from it. If you’re there or know the city and know people/organisations we should be speaking to, please get in touch.
DMs open.
Danish newspaper @politiken.dk opens ENGLISH LANGUAGE section of its coverage of Greenland. Resource to understand local coverage, analysis, politics, and public opinion ⬇️

Greenland PM Jens-Frederik Nielsen:
"If we have to choose between the US & Denmark here and now, we choose Denmark. We choose NATO. We choose the Kingdom of Denmark. We choose the EU."
"Greenland does not want to be owned by the US. Greenland does not want to be governed by the US" he later added.
it is sort of important for people to remember that Putin did in fact try to do this exact kind of Cheeky Lil’ Armed Kidnapping maneuver on Zelenskyy in 2022, and it did in fact fail miserably
Zelensky in Kyiv with cabinet after attempts to kidnap and kill him failed.
I’ll never forget the hardest “I lived bitch.” Of all time.
I don't really post anymore, but I would like to carry on writing books at some point in the future.
Hate to be annoying, but any chance you could retweet so old twitter followers can find me if they want to? Going to delete my twitter, or at least abandon it on lock and let it die a slow death.
The European Union has triggered Article 122 to indefinitely immobilise the assets of the Russian Central Bank, worth a whopping €210 billion.
I explain what just happened and why this is such a big deal for Europeans.
🧵 Long thread.
It's delusional to assume that Trump's America would aid Europe in a fight against Russia. Whether the United States withdraws or not, NATO as we knew it is over. We'll be on our own and we should act accordingly
