Enough with the Glory stuff. There is NOTHING friendly in your disrespectul reminder to “mommy.” RevMom has not used that word for over a month. Yet you continue rubbing her nose in what she is no longer doing.
The person promoting Glory (not to God) now is Putin himself. He has ordered that Russian school children be taught to chant “Glory to the Soviet Nation.” As if there is anything glorious about a nation that starved 3 million Ukranians to death in additon to millions of Russians, or murdered a significant portion of it’s officers corp prior to the start of WW2. But it is this insanity that Putin is ingraining in his countries school children. And along with that order goes his plan to reinstate the Soviet nation, it’s borders, all it’s satellites. and whatever other real estate he can get his hands on. Surely you can see no glory in that?
Wear gloves, and a long sleeved shirt.
The milk is nasty.
Agreed. 👍
You just keep reposting the same silly stuff. Not new or informative the first time and completely annoying thereafter.

So odd.
That’s exactly what I think of a handful here that do not comment really except for insults & repetitive memes!?!?!

ARTICLE – address by the President of Ukraine
Blocking Russia’s ways to circumvent sanctions means blocking terror

Briefly about this day.
A very positive, truly inspiring conversation with President of France Macron.
I thanked him for the creation of an artillery coalition within our Ramstein defense format and for France’s willingness to supply Ukraine with dozens of very effective CAESAR artillery systems and ammunition for them this year.
We will further bolster our air defense as well, and I thank France for its powerful decisions.
Of course, today we discussed the situation on the battlefield in Ukraine – the details at the moment, and the prospects. Accordingly, we discussed what is important to include in the new defense package that France is currently preparing.
And, on top of all that, we discussed the work with France on security commitments for Ukraine. We are preparing a bilateral agreement.
Emmanuel, Mr. President, thank you once again.
We continue our communication with partners on sanctions against Russia – their full effect. All of our diplomatic representatives must step up their efforts to ensure that our partners respond more actively to every instance of Russia’s circumvention of sanctions.
This is not just an abstract question – it’s about how a terrorist state produces weapons, including missiles. All Russian missiles have dozens of critical components manufactured abroad, many of them by companies from the free world. Today, the Head of the Foreign Intelligence Service of Ukraine, Oleksandr Lytvynenko, made a report on this. These are clear facts. So blocking the ways Russia circumvents sanctions is literally blocking terror. I am grateful to all partners who understand this and to everyone in the world who helps us in this work.
Today I also held a meeting with the head of our government, Denys Shmyhal. First of all, we discussed the energy sector, the protection and capabilities of our energy system. Consumption is high now, and the threats from the enemy are extremely high, but the professional work of our power engineers and all those responsible for the protection of energy facilities makes it possible to provide the country with light and heat. And this is important. There was also a separate report on the protection of strategic energy facilities. The report was made by Deputy Prime Minister Oleksandr Kubrakov.
The Prime Minister also reported today on the situation in our financial system. The situation is stable, and social payments are being disbursed in full. Moreover, this is being done without issuance. And by the way, I would like to thank all our taxpayers in the country – everyone who keeps jobs in Ukraine, ensures production, and works legally and cleanly. Last year, despite the war, we had economic growth of 5% and an increase in tax payments that corresponds to the growth in the economy. This is a clear sign of Ukraine’s strength. And the state really appreciates everyone who works, pays taxes, and thus contributes to our common ability to defend the state and independence despite all the difficulties.
A separate report by the Prime Minister was made on the construction of fortifications. The work is ongoing, and I am grateful to everyone involved. The results are exactly what we need.
Glory to everyone who defends our country, who fights and works for Ukraine and who is as active as possible to ensure that Ukraine, Ukrainian companies, and Ukrainians get the results they need.

Ukrainian gas storage facilities help Europe prevent an energy crisis, says Denys Shmyhal

At a meeting on 19 January, the Government decided to strengthen Ukraine’s energy potential. Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal stressed in his opening statement.
“Ukrhydroenergo is building three new units of the Dniester PSPP. At the same time, it is planned to build a new power transmission line from the Dniester PSPP to the Vinnytsia substation. Today we are adopting a document that gives Ukrenergo permission to develop a land management project for the allocation of land plots for their further use in the construction of this new power line,” said Denys Shmyhal.
The Prime Minister noted that Ukraine had become a member of the European Energy Union, as it had fully synchronised its energy system with the European one.
“We store and have used to store 2.5 billion cubic metres of gas from foreign companies. Our ambitious plan is to become a gas safe in Europe, and we are already offering European companies up to 10 billion cubic metres in our storage facilities,” the Head of Government said.
According to the Prime Minister, Ukrainian storage facilities help Europe prevent an energy crisis and a significant increase in gas prices during the heating season.
Irrelevant link spews from the propaganda bucket. Ha!

More than a thousand people have staged protests in the Russian region of Bashkortostan, after police arrested and sentenced a local activist and Kremlin critic.
Bashkortostan is one of Russia’s semi-autonomous republics.
It has reportedly seen an above-average number of casualties in the war in Ukraine. Demonstrations started on Wednesday when police arrested Fail Alsynov. He had publicly criticized Moscow’s mobilisation drive for the war.
Protests have now spread to the regional capital, where police detained several demonstrators.
“Then, Black Rock and their ilk can invest in rebuilding western Ukraine to “sustainable”, “green”, “equitable” standards if they so desire. But we Americans shouldn’t pay another cent from our pockets.”
Penny Pritzker and the Clinton Foundation are circling like vultures.
He'z got'z wormzzzzz!
This:
“Spend Russia’s money now for Ukraine’s good’ The rich G7 countries froze Russian central bank reserves after the invasion of February 2022, and there have been growing demands from Kyiv for the assets to be seized and spent on reconstruction.”
Get all those ‘frozen assets’ to Ukraine now!
May it be so!
That is so true, they come here throw insults, and then bask in their glory
The fact that Jon was first and repeatedly there after(adding nothing), can only imagine him in front of wildberry burned out warehouse madly hitting the refresh button waiting for a post from mom to appear so he can unleash his brilliance
Two years later and still donbas, Kharkiv, and kherson are not “liberated “ let alone Odessa or Kiev.
But big one is coming, that’s what I keep hearing
