Every single word is on point & the literal truth. I wish for this clarity in more politicians.
"The defeat of Ukraine would be the defeat of Europe. The Baltic States, Georgia, Moldova are already on the list. Putin’s goal is to return to Yalta, where half the continent was ceded to Stalin."
"Our parents defeated fascism and communism at great cost. The task of our generation is to defeat the totalitarianisms of the 21st century."

Oberst Enzian*The United States voted against a United Nations resolution this week to formally recognize the trans-Atlantic slave trade as the “gravest crime against humanity.”*
*The resolution, which was led by Ghana, urged U.N. member states to apologize for the slave trade and to contribute to a reparations fund.*

I fully agree. Unfortunately, unless the UN has a mechanism for imposing meaningful sanctions on Western nations that profited from the African Slave Trade I don’t think anything meaningful will come from this. I can think of one nation in particular that will never accept any responsibility for its crimes…

UN calls for reparations to remedy 'historical wrongs' of slavery
The U.N. General Assembly has adopted a resolution declaring the trafficking of enslaved Africans “the gravest crime against humanity” and calling for reparations as “a concrete step towards remedying historical wrongs.” The resolution also urges “the prompt and unhindered restitution” of cultural items to their countries of origin without charge. This includes artworks, monuments, museum pieces, documents and national archives. Wednesday's vote in the 193-member world body was 123-3, with 52 abstentions. Argentina, Israel and the United States were the three members voting against the resolution. The United Kingdom and the 27 members of the European Union were among those that abstained.
