Russia invaded Ukraine. The biggest war in Europe since WWII continues.
Ukraine fights not only for its freedom but for the future of global democracy.
If evil isn’t stopped now, the world faces a darker tomorrow.

Russia invaded Ukraine. Why does this matter to the world?
Food shortage, energy crisis, lack of security and nuclear threat – all because Russia started a war to pursue its imperialistic fantasy.

Ukraine’s drones strike deep inside Russia, setting a major oil refinery ablaze, shutting down the Astrakhan gas plant, and crippling pipelines. A fuel crisis is spreading across Russia and Crimea, with empty pumps and soaring prices. Moscow is running out of fuel, options, and credibility.

The Cold War’s nuclear rules are breaking down. China expands, Russia threatens, allies doubt U.S. protection, and AI lowers the barrier to the bomb. A new Foreign Affairs piece warns Washington must update its strategy to stop a new wave of nuclear states.

Funding Ukraine costs $100B+ a year. With US support gone, Europe must act. Economist Timothy Ash says: use Russia’s frozen $330B — seize it or invest it to fund Ukraine’s defense. Delay risks Ukraine’s defeat & a much bigger bill later.

Opinion: Central Bank of Russia Assets Have to Be Seized for Ukraine
Europe is loath to make its own taxpayers cover the bill for Ukraine’s defense. So why not let Russia? It’s definitely doable. All we need is a more innovative investment approach.

The U.S. just imported eggs from Russia for the first time in 30+ years — and quietly reopened the door to Russian diamonds. Every carve-out fuels Putin’s war chest while Russian missiles rain on Ukraine.

‘Security guarantees’ for Ukraine are meaningless without real deterrence. The Budapest Memorandum failed. The only true guarantee: help Ukraine win—with weapons, sanctions, and seized Russian assets. Anything else is a gamble. #StandWithUkraine
