Ukraine is the most mine-contaminated country in the world after over 12 years of Russian aggression. Yet the country responsible for contaminating vast areas of Ukrainian land is now set to play a leading role in global mine action as Russian ambassador has been appointed to lead UN mine action. “Entrusting this responsibility to a representative of the aggressor state is deeply troubling and undermines trust in the United Nations,” @SpoxUkraineMFA Heorhii Tykhyi has commented. “This appointment confirms what has been known for years: Russia’s illegitimate occupation of the Soviet Union’s permanent seat on the UN Security Council poisons the entire UN system.”

Pleased to talk with Nick Romeo for his @guardian article and to see him link to our jobguarantee.org resource. 🔷 The beauty of the JG is that it is concrete: a clear solution to job losses whatever their cause. Many are starting to recognize this. theguardian.com/technology/2…

A horrific Russian strike on the railway station in Dnipro. The Russians launched a drone attack on a platform where an ordinary commuter train and a scheduled passenger train were standing. Unfortunately, 13 people have been confirmed killed as of now. My condolences to their families and loved ones. Ten more people were injured. All necessary emergency services are working at the scene. Just how many terrorist strikes has Russia carried out against our people since sanctions were lifted on certain Russian oligarchs and the Russian energy sector, rather than de-escalating? This is precisely why Ukraine has always said that just and decisive action by America and Europe is needed in response to Russian escalation – sanctions against Moscow and its war machine must not be eased for as long as this Russian war continues. It is time for new, stronger sanctions steps by the EU, the United States, and the G7. I thank everyone who is ready to help in this way.

Russian "humanism" looks like this. Drone operator watched a civilian train in Dnipro and struck it. 14 killed. Another strike on a busy Chernihiv street killed two 15-year-old girls. This isn't just Putin. These are Russians.

“Daddy, Daddy, come back…” A child screams at a railway station in Dnipro after a russian strike. His father will never hear him again. He was killed. World, will you hear this child’s cry? You don’t have to be Ukrainian to feel this pain. You just have to be human.

💬 "This war cannot be ended by stopping Ukraine's resistance. It can only be ended by stopping the aggressor's attacks."
As long as Russia believes it can achieve the goals of its invasion — goals it cannot achieve on the battlefield — by having anyone pressure Ukraine into capitulation, it will not enter serious negotiations. That is why maintaining and increasing pressure on Russia remains critical to ending this war. Peace through strength is the only strategy that works. But that strength must be applied to the aggressor, not to the country defending itself. This war cannot be ended by stopping Ukraine's resistance. It can only be ended by stopping the aggressor's attacks.

Zelenskyy: “Just imagine, there are Ukrainian children who have never known peace. That’s absolutely horrifying. Many children in Ukraine, including among the fallen, have never lived in peace. We lived in a different time. We understand what it’s like to live without sirens, shelling, and constant fear. But these kids go down to the bomb shelter every night when the alarm goes off, and it goes off every night. Then they come back up, and some of them have died. When a Russian missile cuts short the life of a child who has seen nothing yet… just imagine. My pain is not even 10% of the parents’ pain. It’s just terrifying.” There is an entire generation of Ukrainian children who are schoolkids by now, and who do not remember what a peaceful life is like. They are growing up in conditions where someone is constantly trying to kill them. They don't understand why. They did nothing wrong, nothing to deserve constant bombings of their homes. ​Russia must be stopped. And until then, Ukraine needs air defense so that we don't have to bring toys to collapsed buildings, where Russia cut short lives that never got to experience peace.

Bucha. It was a genocide, recognized by everyone. They buried hundreds of people. They tortured people. We found the grave. There were, I believe, around 500 people. When we liberated those towns near Kyiv, there emerged this, you know, this kind of hatred for the Russians, right at that moment. Not even at the moment when they started the full-scale war. Back then nobody understood what it really was yet. People understood what this war was and what Putin did personally when we found those mass graves of tortured adults, children. I mean they didn't just kill them, they tortured and killed them. When we liberated Bucha, I said, bring every journalist here. Don't touch anything, just bring the journalists. The whole world simply has to see this. Imagine finding a mass grave in the U.S. or in Britain, God forbid, with 500 tortured people, adults, kids, dogs, animals shot dead. I mean, they held hunting sprees there from military vehicles. People were running, they were shooting, just hunting, playing games. They literally just played with people, like slavery. So how, after this, can you listen to Putin? And how, after this, can you forgive? From The Diary of a CEO podcast with Steven Bartlett. (2/3)
