🇺🇦 WONDERFUL NEWS!
270 Ukrainians have returned home from Russian captivity!
Among them are five people who were believed to have been killed in the Olenivka massacre in July 2022. Imagine what this means for their families.
Welcome home! ❤️🇺🇦

This is essential viewing for anyone involved in UK politics.
What a brave investigation by Al Jazeera [@AJ_Investigates] into the British far-right.
Turning Point UK's Jack Ross and Nick Tenconi actively involved with recognised terrorists.

Who else does Witkoff think is a humanitarian? Hitler? Jack the Ripper? Voldemort?

It's hard to overstate how completely US international standing and trust has been destroyed by Trump's actions.
Reagan's shining city upon a hill has gone dark; the beacon has been switched off. And I fear we shall not see them lit again in our life-time.

Trump believes Ukraine is deliberately striking Russian oil refineries to hurt him and the Republicans in the US midterm elections, – The Atlantic.
How do I put this gently, Donnie?
You see, we Ukrainians have been a LITTLE busy fighting the largest war in Europe since WWII, while our very existence as a nation is under threat.
Including striking the infrastructure that fuels Russia’s war machine. You know, playing those cards you once reminded us we didn’t have.
So this time, we didn’t quite manage to squeeze ‘interfering in our strategic ally’s midterm elections’ into our schedule.

The stated position of the Trump administration is that the President of Russia is a humanitarian and that the President of Ukraine should be removed from office.
The American electorate have a chance to make their feelings about this known in less than two weeks.
U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff praised Russian President Vladimir Putin as "a humanitarian" following the release of U.S. citizen Stephen Hubbard on Wednesday. During a meeting in St. Petersburg, Witkoff thanked Putin for freeing the American — whom the U.S. government had declared wrongfully detained — and lauded the Russian autocrat, who ordered the ongoing full-scale invasion of Ukraine almost five years ago.
Witkoff was in Russia as Trump administration and Russian officials were set to have talks focused on the Ukraine war.
