The Telegraph has got its hands on a copy of the contract that the US tried to make Zelenskyy sign last week. Here are the terms that were proposed. They amounted to US economic colonisation of Ukraine. ⬇️
Reagan said this about Poland on 23rd December 1981 as a Russian-backed military junta attempted to crush the Polish people. This sentiment applies, 100%, to Ukraine today.
How far the United States has fallen.
“When 19th century Polish patriots rose against foreign oppressors, their rallying cry was, “For our freedom and yours.” Well, that motto still rings true in our time. There is a spirit of solidarity abroad in the world tonight that no physical force can crush. It crosses national boundaries and enters into the hearts of men and women everywhere. In factories, farms, and schools, in cities and towns around the globe, we the people of the Free World stand as one with our Polish brothers and sisters. Their cause is ours, and our prayers and hopes go out to them,”
A handful of survivors of the Soviet deportations, now in their 90s or older, gathered at @posklondon to mark the 85th anniversary of this tragic chapter in Polish history.
About 1.5 million Poles were forcibly taken to Siberia during WW2.

We are pleased that on issues such as the participation of General Stanisław Sosabowski's 1st Independent Parachute Brigade in Operation Market-Garden, about which 🇵🇱 and 🇬🇧 assessments have differed over the years, our perspectives are becoming increasingly aligned.
