Every day for the past seven months, protesters have been gathering in front of Georgia's Public Broadcaster, demanding air time. Today, we demand they let the families of Georgia's 60+ political prisoners speak on air.

Russia is looking for ways to destabilize Europe. From the scale of "Immortal Regiment" events in Germany, it was clear how large Russian diaspora is in Germany. And obviously, there are Russian agents among them who carry out missions planned by Russian security services.

I still don’t believe this is in America’s interest. I agree with the Trump administration’s so-called “prioritisers” that the US now wields less relative power than it once did. The only way to amplify that power and gain leverage is by working with allies. Going alone… 1/ @msobel.bsky.social

Russian invaders attacked Ukrainian defenders 111 times today. They carried out 39 airstrikes dropping 68 guided bombs. They launched 1,262 kamikaze drones and fired 3,821 artillery shells. The West's strategy of putting no pressure on Russia whatsoever is working as expected.
