When I worked for Obama, I advised him on how to talk to Russian leaders. I never gave the Kremlin advice on how to talk to Obama (and I talked to Ushakov many times!).

I hate the misconception that introverts don’t like talking. If you’re the right person, we’ll talk to you for hours on end about pretty much anything. However, it’s incredibly difficult to find the right people, so for the most part we’ll probably just stay quiet

I’m an introvert.

It’s not that I don’t like people, I just value peace. I recharge in quiet, not crowds. I speak when it matters. I’m observant, not distant. I crave real connection, not constant attention. If I choose your company, it means everything.

The Swedish PM, — the agreement is not intended for immediate deliveries. It concerns around 120–150 Gripen E-series fighter jets, which are now entering production. This will enable the creation of a powerful Ukrainian Air Force and marks the beginning of a long journey that could last 10–15 years.

The court stated, among other things, that the pipelines would be a legitimate target for any Ukrainian citizen.

One interesting detail in the court's statement is that the court doesn't know if this person actually blew up Nord Stream, but even if they did, it would be the right thing to do as part of Ukraine's defensive war against Russia.

This to me is the most revealing sentence in this article. 👇

Outside observers often assume that senior military commanders in the rear and political decision-makers possess a clear understanding of the battlefield situation and the relative status of their forces.

The atrocities of both the Soviet communist and Nazi regimes were crimes against humanity. Surprisingly, those who oppose the latter often whitewash the former.

Today is World Animal Day.

In Ukraine, animals have also become victims of russian aggression. Ukrainians, both military and civilian, are doing everything to help them: evacuating them from combat zones; sheltering them, and finding them new homes.
