(6/6) This is the moment for Europe to act together, truly collaborate, and draw strength from the realisation that it has the power to bring this war to a conclusion on Ukraine’s terms.

(5/6) European nations haven't even been invited to be part of these negotiations, despite the fact this war is taking place in Europe. But what European leaders can and must do is up their support for Ukraine even further and tighten economic pressure on Russia to bring its war economy to its knees

(4/6) Putin has no interest in peace on any other terms than his own. And this current US administration does not have the willpower to help Europe to force Russia to the table as Ukraine’s equal.

(2/3) Good to see so many speaking out against these disgraceful falsehoods. If this was a genuine mistake, the right thing to do would be to apologise – as all good leaders do.

(2/2) The ruthless theocrats responsible for this carnage must be stopped and held responsible for the horrors they’ve brought upon their own people: news.sky.com/story/irania...

(3/3) The US should then push for a peaceful transition from the current regime to those elected to lead. It’s the only way for Venezuela to find peace, freedom and democracy: www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

(2/3) As President Trump is scheduled to meet opposition leader Maria Corina Machado at the White House this week, he should use the opportunity to recognise the result of the 2024 presidential elections, which opposition candidate Edmundo Gonzalez won decisively.
