Vasyl Myroshnychenko @ambvasyl.bsky.social · 06/08/2026Russia is waging a genocidal war aimed at erasing Ukraine’s identity and nationhood. The only way to stop this aggression is to provide Ukraine with greater military assistance. Russia responds only to strength, and only strength can deter further atrocities. 0156

Vasyl Myroshnychenko @ambvasyl.bsky.social · 13/07/2026Before today’s morning transit to Kyiv, I had never experienced Ukraine’s 9 a.m minute of silence on a train.
