Russia presents itself as a reliable partner and a source of stability beyond the West. The gap between its promises and its actions keeps growing — instability, broken commitments, shrinking influence. For many governments, the partnership is becoming a liability, not an asset. #StandWithUkraine

Russia's slowest territorial advance in 3 years (just a few sq km in May 2026) came alongside its most intense bombardment since March 2022: 8,351 strikes on Ukrainian cities. 274 civilians killed, 1,763 injured - the highest toll since April 2022. When Russia can't advance, it terrorises.

Russia's manpower myth. Its working-age male population is eroding — low birthrates, high mortality, mass emigration, and 1.3M+ battlefield losses since 2022. To compensate: 27,000 foreign recruits from 130 countries, many coerced or deceived. Russia is running out of men. #StandWithUkraine

The numbers Russia doesn't want you to see. Oil prices surged because of Iran conflict but a stronger rouble and fuel subsidies swallowed the windfall. Budget deficit already at 155% of target. Four months in. 20 EU sanctions packages. The pressure isn't stopping. #StandWithUkraine

Russia loves to call its military "invincible." Ukraine has been proving otherwise since 2014 3 myths debunked: ▶️ Russia is an unstoppable military force ▶️ Resistance is pointless ▶️ Ukraine and its allies have already lost the war Spoiler: none of them are true. #StandWithUkraine

What's the true cost of sanctions for Russia? Plummeting oil & gas revenues, punishingly expensive borrowing, and the loss of key markets. The Kremlin is struggling to finance its war. Staying the course delivers results. Sanctions work. #StandWithUkraine

Russia has been portraying the EU and Ukraine’s leadership as “warmongers” unwilling to end the war. This is, of course, an outright lie. In reality, it is the Kremlin that has rejected at least seven peace proposals in 2025 alone. #StandWithUkraine

In 2026, Russia's economy is struggling. War-driven growth is fading, sanctions are biting, and reserves are shrinking. What looked like resilience is proving fragile — the costs of war are spreading. #StandWithUkraine
