It's good that many people are moving their accounts to Eurosky, but as this shows, it's not enough to just move the PDS to another server than Bluesky. Full independence requires controlling the whole process.
Zelensky accused Hungarian PM Orban of siding with Putin, blocking money, weapons, and Ukraine's path to EU membership while spreading Russian propaganda. "There is only one thing he does not do," Zelensky said: "attack us with missiles, drones, or soldiers." #Ukraine
🇺🇦🇸🇰🇭🇺Zelensky called the position of Hungary and Slovakia on the Druzhba pipeline blackmail.
Zelensky said that representatives of the European Commission conveyed to him the position of Hungary and Slovakia: if Ukraine does not resume the transit of Russian oil, they will block EU money for Ukraine.
France, Spain, and Italy should be ashamed.
They really need to step up, or they will never be trusted by countries bordering Russia
Every single EU institution has decided that outright stealing $80 million in cash and gold is permissible behavior for their member states to engage in. What a grand old Europe.
There was a literal purge of top generals when Trump seized power, purges are for getting rid of anyone perceived to be disloyal, voices of reason are disloyal almost by definition

Zelensky rules out ceding Donbas to Russia, telling Politico his priority is defending Ukraine's constitution and independence. Ending the war on Russian terms would be a historic mistake, he said. Ukraine has already made serious compromises, but Russia considers them insufficient. #Ukraine
Drones struck the Tikhoretskaya oil transshipment base in Russia's Krasnodar Krai overnight, triggering a large fire at the facility, which is part of OAO Chernomortransneft. Local authorities attributed the blaze to "falling debris". #Russia
