🇺🇦🇫🇮 Russia’s war in Ukraine could have ended by now if Kyiv had received the level of air defense deployed in the Persian Gulf countries during the week of the war, — Finnish President Stubb
Thousands of Ukrainians have lost their loved ones because of russia’s aggression. They are growing up with pain that comes far too early.
Their childhood is filled with loss. But their hearts still have so much room for love. ❤️
In Kenya, families protested in Nairobi demanding the government bring home their sons duped into joining Russia's army for the Ukraine war. Many were lured with promises of decent jobs as drivers or guards, but ended up on the front lines. Over 1,000 Kenyans have been recruited
NATO SG Mark Rutte said: Europe needs a "400% increase in air and missile" defence.
After the Iranian crisis - it became even more urgent for us in Europe to ramp up production of air-defence and anti-ballistic missiles.

Just kidding, non alcoholic is great if you want to drive or whatever. But I am sceptical towards non alcoholic wine.
By the way, I think I made the same mistake with the glögg. Just grabbed a bottle at Systembolaget.
Viewing this with an academic interest, now we have an archive of intensely weird comms to analyse in the future.
I just hope this stays a historical anomaly and doesn’t become a new normal
They fucking "double tapped" a school
Se till att lyssna på Mikael Frisell i Ekots lördagsintervju. Mycket klokt sägs. Angående vetenskapen bakom konflikters medellängd (3,2 år) så tog jag fram den med empiri ur Uppsala universitets konfliktdatabas. Läs mer i boken Vem är du när kriget kommer.

The strength and role of Ukrainian women - it's not just one day. It's all 365 days.
Ukrainian women defend the country, wait for their loved ones and support their partners, raise children in the difficult conditions of war, create, research, save, teach, and heal.

Ukraine has rapidly emerged as a global leader in drone-based air defense.
Interceptor UAVs have now established themselves as an answer to terror worldwide.
What makes them so efficient and essential?

Shaheds are Biden drones. Each of them has a left wing. www.theatlantic.com/national-sec...
And it seems like the US has switched Presidents without informing anyone...
OTD in 2024 Sweden was forced into NATO by the aggressive alliance. Stockholm looks wrecked compared to Mariupol's peaceful & voluntary joining of Russia.
I remain a master strategist.
Välkommen!
Interesting that among the few advance plans we made are those that benefit Russia. See my longer essay on Oligarchic Corridors.

We have around +4°C. You are a few weeks ahead of us, but it seems like the snow is melting away quite rapidly.
Increasing demand for air-defence in the EU is an opportunity for European defence industry.
#PGZ #MESKO_SA is already leading in MANPAD production. During the #MissileTour we investigate what is needed to ramp up, speed up & expand missile production in the EU.

”’I have not received any direct requests’ Zelensky told reporters on Monday. ’I have not discussed this with anyone’ That changed the following day, when Zelensky began a flurry of calls with U.S. allies in the Middle East, including the leaders of Qatar, Jordan, Bahrain, and the UAE.”
It kind of sucks, but I think this sheds some light on the situation.
