Not a fan of #politico (after all it is owned by the #springer group). Still, this one caught my attention: #afd politicians (#frohnmaier and #Kotré are invited by #putin to attend #russia ‘s #SPIEF (a variant of the #DavosSummit ). Isn’t it great: Europe is #rearming to stop #madvlad from even thinking about #destroying our #democracy (for which there is ample #proof ) and these guys cuddle up to him. Know who you #vote for, read the AfD #partyprogram .

At least two lawmakers in the Kremlin-friendly AfD intend to attend the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum in June.

In Russia, Victory Day Is Starting to Feel Like Defeat

Drones are landing in Moscow, critics are starting to speak out, and Putin is even more paranoid than usual.

Ukraine is the biggest and most consequential of all the American betrayals

As the war enters its fifth year, it’s time for Europe to take the fight to Putin on its own terms and tell Trump to get lost, says Guardian foreign affairs commentator Simon Tisdall

Over 400,000 Russians killed, wounded for 0.8 percent of Ukraine in 2025

Ukraine’s General Staff estimated the tally – but Russian President Vladimir Putin appears bent on avoiding peace talks.

Lavrov the Lackey has been making quite a few statements this week. #putin #MadVlad #russia #worldwar3 #worldwar #lavrov

@[email protected] the brutal attack by #madvlad #putin on #ukraine is inexcusable. In retrospect putting the blame on other politicians may be good for one’s ego, but doesn’t help the current situation.
I have hope for 2026. #madvlad may see the light and sign a #ukraine #PeaceDeal . #trump may lose in the #midterms. After many years of sounding the alarm, governments may finally take action to combat the extremely rich. And #musk may fall of his bike.
