Applebaum: Putin has presented a fake image of Russia to the world. He talks about leading a traditional society In reality, divorce is very high, abortion is common, very few Russians go to church and less than 5% have ever read a Bible. It's not a traditional culture at all 1/

France's Foreign Minister put it well: A strike on the Lavra is the equivalent of bombing Notre-Dame. This is what russia calls defending Christianity.

Russia was behind arson attacks targeting UK PM Keir Starmer, BBC reveals bbc.in/3Q3lOy1

This is one of the most important churches in Ukraine. The Russians would not strike it by accident. Putin is deliberately attacking Christianity, history, culture

Metropolitan Epiphanius of Kyiv shares video of the Dormition Cathedral of the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra in flames. “We ask for prayers for the salvation of the shrine from destruction,” he writes. He calls the Russian attack: “Another Russian crime against humanity, against

When Notre-Dame burned in 2019, the world stopped. Today, Russia damages Kyiv Pechersk Lavra, a monastery nearly 1,000 years old and older than Notre-Dame itself. A thousand years of history deserves the same attention, the same sympathy, and the same protection.

Russia has now lost four elections in a row: in Romania, Moldova, Hungary, and now Armenia. What's more, no one expected the margin in Armenia to be so large. This suggests that Armenians have lost faith in Russia and are distancing themselves from it. I do not believe Russia will take military action against Armenia. The military base poses no threat, and Russia itself is exhausted by the war it is waging against Ukraine. Through its heroic resistance, Ukraine is also giving other nations and states a chance to break free from Russia. I believe Georgia may be next in attempting to remove pro-Russian forces. Armenia's break with Russia will strengthen Turkey and its influence in the region. That is good news. In addition, sources believe that the defeat in Armenia could be used by the Kremlin to oust the so-called "Armenian lobby" within the Russian leadership: to weaken, remove its members from office, and cut them off from financial flows. The main names mentioned are Mikhail Mishustin, Russian prime minister, and Sergey Lavrov, Russian foreign minister. Russia continues to lose ground and its influence.

Russia's biggest battle right now is Armenia. Russia has already lost elections in Romania, Moldova, and Hungary, and is now losing in Armenia. If it loses Armenia, Georgia will likely be next. Turkey is watching closely. Russia is now doing everything it can to pull Armenia

If you didn’t notice, Russia presented in St Petersburg a “positive scenario” for Europe’s future: - nuclear strike on Ukraine, - war till 2036; - occupation of Kyiv; - disintegration of EU; - Russia’s domination in Europe. Think about it next time when saying 🇷🇺 means well.

.@Tsihanouskaya stressed to @Keir_Starmer that Lukashenka remains a threat to European security — through repression and support for Russia’s war against 🇺🇦. The answer is clear: more pressure, stronger sanctions, and accountability for the regime’s crimes, including the deportation of Ukrainian children.

Someone tell him about the UN convention on the Law of the Sea? Article 110?

This was an act of War carried out by France with UK assistance. No “international sanctions” authorised it. Only the UNSC can apply international sanctions. Neither France nor UK are in ANY position to make war upon Russia. Unless Nuclear War, at which point France and the UK

Russians are back using the ferry in the Kerch Strait connecting Russia with the occupied Ukrainian peninsula of Crimea. Imagine the firework if only one drone visits this place. Coordinates are probably here: 45°20'40.71"N 36°40'55.71"E

📢UN experts expressed grave concern over the continued detention, alleged ill-treatment and denial of adequate medical care to several political prisoners in #Belarus They warned that the health of several detainees had reportedly deteriorated severely in detention and that some may face irreversible harm if urgent medical assistance is not provided. This refers to Aliaksandra Pulinovich, Volha Mayorava, Yahor Volkau, Stsiapan Latypau and Viachaslau Areshka. “We urge Belarusian authorities to ensure immediate access to independent medical care and to consider humanitarian release or non-custodial measures for detainees whose health conditions place their lives and physical integrity at risk,” the experts said.

Somehow Kherson never gets into the news. Yet here’s what Russian artillery did this morning to an apartment building

WATCH: Russia is airlifting huge amounts of North Korean soldiers and Equipment to the frontlines In Ukraine, I have noted over the last 3 days at least 10 flights of AN-148 troop transfers and ll-76md military cargo flights flying from Vladivostok to Eastern Russia.

I don’t think conservatives realize how much Russian propaganda we have been fed over the last few years as “independent journalism”. It’s starting to become very clear to me how many people who claimed to be defenders of the West were just saying that to suck in a pro-West audience so they could slowly brainwash them with foreign propaganda until they could convince their viewers to work against the West. Those “interviews” we all defended were not actually interviews. They were psychological operations meant to weaponize political factions in America for the purpose of pushing foreign interests. And many of us fell for it because we let our anger with the system get the best of us and we decided to trust personalities who have never been honest about who they are and where they come from. I’m starting to think the entire podcast ecosystem is and always has been on giant psychological and information warfare operation. Criminals and terrorists no longer need billions of dollars for weapons and aircraft. They just need an influencer and podcast budget to create more damage to our society than high powered weapons. I hope the DOJ will investigate all of this. It’s a shame so many false accusations of Russian collusion were spread over the last 10 years as a way to smear Donald Trump and his allies with lies, because now that actual Russian interference is here in our media and on social media, nobody believes it’s real. It’s starting to get very creepy just how coordinated, organized and well funded this OPP is.

A Russian drone crashed in Slutsk, Belarus, yesterday in broad daylight – during a massive attack against Ukraine. The regime tried to hide the incident from Belarusians. The "peaceful sky" Lukashenka keeps selling to the people in our country has been a myth for a long time.

- Bridget Brink Former US Ambassador to Ukraine🇺🇦 "What I saw in Ukraine was horrifying. Russia launched missiles and drones at men, women and children sleeping in their homes, tried to take down the energy grid for millions of Ukrainians, and committed war crimes and atrocities at a level we haven't seen since WW2. I resigned because the policy was to put pressure on the victim, Ukraine, rather than on the aggressor, Russia. Respect to this woman 🫡

More than 500 personnel of the State Emergency Service have been involved in dealing with the aftermath of Russia’s overnight attack on our cities and communities. The main strike was on Kyiv, where dozens of residential buildings and other purely civilian infrastructure were damaged again. Tragically, four people have been reported killed. My condolences to all their families and loved ones. At this moment, 38 people are in hospitals in the capital, and all of them are receiving the necessary care. In Dnipro, a search and rescue operation is ongoing at the site of a four-story apartment building. Part of the building was essentially demolished. Nine people were killed in this attack, including a child. Thirty-five people were injured in the city. The fate of six more people remains unknown. The search for them will continue for as long as necessary. The Russians also struck energy facilities in the Kharkiv region and critical infrastructure in Kharkiv. Kyiv, Mykolaiv, Zaporizhzhia, Poltava, Sumy, Chernihiv, and Khmelnytskyi regions also came under attack. In total, overnight Russia launched 656 attack drones and 73 missiles of various types at our people – ballistic, cruise, and anti-ship missiles. A large-scale attack and an absolutely clear statement from Russia: if Ukraine is not protected from ballistic and other missile strikes, these attacks will continue. Europe needs its own anti-ballistic defense so that this war can finally be brought to an end. And assistance from the United States in supplying missiles for Patriot systems is absolutely necessary. We are counting on the support of our partners and on effective responses to today’s attack. And I thank all Ukrainian men and women for not ignoring air raid alerts. Glory to Ukraine!

KAMYSHIN: There are two nations on the continent who know how to produce 10 million drones a year. One of them wants not to integrate into Europe, but to invade. Russians have always been very vocal about their targets. When we check tanks we captured from Russia in our tank repair factories, because we grab them, repair them, and try to send them back to Russia to fight against Russia, so when we check those tanks, they never write to Kyiv. They always write to Berlin, NATO, Prague, whatever. They can't admit to themselves that they fight Ukraine only. They believe they fight with NATO. They've always been very vocal about their targets. They want to invade Europe, period. There's another nation which is also capable of producing whatever is needed in big war, and we are asking to get us integrated into Europe. So, you have to choose whether you want to have Ukraine integrated into European defense industry and European Union, rather than Russia invading. Because I've never thought that Ukraine would be integrated into European Union via security and defense road. And it looks like we will be there.

You can all see that Ukraine’s positions on the frontline are strong and that we are gradually taking back occupied territory. In May, Russia achieved almost no meaningful results on the battlefield. And that matters. Please also pay attention to Russia's losses. They're losing 30,000 to 35,000 troops every month. And the nature of those losses changed in the past year: around 63% killed and another 37% seriously wounded. These are massive irreversible losses. Even for Russia, this is becoming a serious problem, because the overall size of its occupation forces is shrinking. From an address to the participants of the NATO–Ukraine Council meeting in Kyiv (2/5).

Repoussée par la résistance ukrainienne, la Russie de Vladimir Poutine a reculé sur le front au mois de mai, comme ce fut déjà le cas au mois d'avril. Ses frappes massives n'y changent rien : cette guerre impérialiste est un échec, car rien ne résiste à un peuple qui aspire à l'indépendance et à la liberté.
