Please people take time to add your voice and sign this. This isn't only French*, it's more than time to protect Ukrainian skies. We don't even need the US, EU has what it takes for this.

*but it would send a strong message to this country stuck into internal mud.

A Polish judge refused to extradite a Ukrainian citizen to Germany, arguing that if Ukraine carried out a mission to destroy enemy pipelines, such actions would be lawful during a war. The judge emphasized that Ukrainian soldiers, including special forces, cannot be labeled terrorists or saboteurs.

Finland will never recognize Crimea, Donetsk, or Luhansk as part of Russia, said Finnish President Alexander Stubb

Stubb aims for Ukraine to secure full EU and NATO membership after the war, ensuring independence, sovereignty, and territorial integrity euromaidanpress.com/2025/10/18/f...

Finland draws line — Crimea, Donetsk, Luhansk oblasts are Ukraine’s, not Russia’s

Recognizing annexation would embolden other regimes to redraw borders by force.

That's neither Normandy nor Ile-de-France on the picture but still good visuals. People need to realize what would it be if it was themselves.

Someone should explain Switzerland the difference between discrimination and punitive distinction.

Putin also needs to come back on the international stage, russia's Economy is failing. Trump is greedy af and also wants russia's come back. As a good sycophant, I'm pretty sure Orban will offer russian shell companies a way to settle in his country, maybe with an American help...

Jolenska @jolenska.bsky.social · 22h

EU is a thorn to both Trump and Putin's feet. Hungary became a Trojan horse for russian visas and propaganda, Orban is here to sow chaos. A weakened EU is good for Trump and his 'deals' and Putin's dreams fo expand his influence, he doesn't have the means to invade us conventionally.

There is a casefire in the war, but only a local one.

The IAEA posted photos of repair work being undertaken at the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant in occupied Enerhodar.

A reminder it's 221 days since Trump demanded a total ceasefire. Ukraine agreed, Russia refused.

If this is true, this is why Putin and Trump met in Alaska. Peace talks are an excuse. Now what's the next deal with Hungary ?

He's a traitor to his own country and allies. A traitor to Human Rights, Democracy and all major institutions. I'm still baffled to see how it is still happening without concrete move to stop the US being a dictatorship worsening day by day.

So, people, do you still believe in Trump's U-turn ?

I'm so fed up with Trump, and I'm not even American.....

The EU does not ban Putin or Lavrov from entering the bloc — European Commission

“The meeting hasn’t been confirmed, and we won’t comment on hypothetical scenarios. But if it does take place, there are no travel bans as such,” a European Commission spokesperson said.

You're not an ally when you have imperialistic wishes. russia's enlargement is not compatible with sovereign countries. F*ck russia.
It's not only Putin.

Jolenska @jolenska.bsky.social · 1d

Problem is, we don't have a real choice. If we block it we're the ones obstructing efforts to peace, even if we all know it's NOT a credible peace when it's between a war criminal and a greedy felon.

I hate to imagine Putin in EU, but the choice of the place is unacceptable for historical reasons.
