The writer argued that any European peace plan without a credible war plan to support it would amount to capitulation, and said Ukraine understood this. They added that peace could not be achieved through conciliatory words without first preparing substantial force. #UkrainianCrisis #Peace #WarPlan #EU #UA
It must be hard for Putin to believe that Europe is united in determination to defend every inch of territory when he can see us uniting to remove his friends from the sanctions list. #Putin #Europe #Sanctions #RU #EU
There are not many Western leaders who could call Zelenskyy and demand anything. Ukraine has shown that decisions about the destiny of Ukraine will be made by Ukrainians, not by the leaders of Great Powers huddled together around a map. https://t.co/W5SL8kD3GX #Zelenskyy #Ukraine #GreatPowers #UA #US #GB
Europe is still refusing to play its cards, afraid of “escalation”. But if Europe enters into negotiations empty-handed — Putin would, as always, escalate. Europe might then be pressured into snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. https://t.co/SjzBpMGfNl #Europe #Putin #Negotiations #EU #RU
When Russia bombs a Ukrainian power station — everybody uses the word “war”. If Russia bombed a Lithuanian power station, or an airport, or even a school — I fear that it would be called “hybrid” in order to avoid discussing a serious response. https://t.co/fzIkc65J4f #Russia #Ukraine #HybridWarfare #RU #UA #LT
Good to know that last night Lithuania was safely under hybrid attack by hybrid drones that were shot down before landing on our hybrid houses. #HybridAttack #Lithuania #Drones #LT
In Kyiv I proposed two tools for Europeans to show Putin that he won’t win his hybrid war against us, even if the Americans less interested in helping us. 1) Invite Ukraine into JEF (Joint Expeditionary Force) 2) Produce 100 million drones per year https://t.co/7hc2swF3Ir #Ukraine #JEF #Drones #UA #EU #US #RU
📺“So Europe has to, you know, rethink about how do we defend ourselves? What lessons do we need to learn from Ukraine? How do we know who's in charge? We've been for decades led by the American generals. Now who would be in charge?” 5/5🧵 https://t.co/IBzndIkXw2 #Europe #Ukraine #Defense #EU #UA #US
📺“There's a question whether Ukrainians will be willing to share their knowledge, because it costs them lives to build up what they currently have… so what are we going to offer Ukraine for the security that they they might be providing to us?” 4/5🧵 https://t.co/lLdroy8XIR #Ukraine #Security #KnowledgeSharing #UA
I gave DW my reactions to Germany’s recent announcements. Here’s five highlights: 📺“We're already at war. Unfortunately we're still calling it hybrid war, but we're being attacked, by Russia.” 1/5🧵 https://t.co/Liqo9dgmP8 #Germany #HybridWar #Russia #DE #RU
"Koliko puta Rusija može napasti Europu i ostati 'nevina dok se ne dokaže krivnja'? O ovom će se pitanju raspravljati na sljedećem sastanku 'Koalicije onih koji izbjegavaju istinu', koji će se održati u nadolazećim tjednima i mjesecima, kažu izvori."
How many times can Russia attack Europe and still remain "innocent until proven guilty"? This question will be discussed at the next meeting of the Coalition of the Prevaricating, to be held in the coming weeks and months, say sources. #Russia #Europe #Coalition #RU #EU
Я считаю важным сказать жителям, что ситуация, к сожалению, опасна. Не только сказать, что это опасно, но и предельно ясно объяснить, что мы в связи с этим делаем. Это главная задача,
By choosing "de-escalation" tactics, NATO turned Article 5 into a Schrödinger's cat. So long as the decision box stays closed, NATO is both willing and unwilling to react. Now it seems like Putin might force us to open the box and find out what's inside. #NATO #DeEscalation #Putin #NATO #RU
As I said in April to much derision, the merde is in fact getting uncomfortably close to the ventilator. #Merde #Ventilator #RealityCheck #Nocountrycodesfound.
Here is a full interview on how Europe should respond to NATO 3.0 and the shifting geopolitical tides: https://t.co/fLlsfXM2pm #NATO #Geopolitics #Europe #EU #NATO
Here are my ideas for a practical European response to Putin’s expansionism, based on the already existing JEF, a UK-led force for rapid military response by a coalition of the actually willing, unrestricted by NATO members’ vetoes.

Not even Article 4, for a cruise missile landing on NATO territory? Such a non-reaction would have been unimaginable before the full-scale invasion of Ukraine. There would have been strong measures immediately taken. But, over time, outrages have been normalised and even #NATO #Ukraine #GlobalSecurity #UA #NATO
