I was just declared fit for military service for Ukraine!

I decided to join Ukraine's Army in combat role, and I went through the same process as everyone else in the country. Got my departure date already!

Here is my experience of how joining the fight looks like right now 🧵

Gazprom is operating at a loss.

Given its business model is basically a licence to print money, we have to conclude either that the sanctions are working or Putin has handed over the company to the executive team at Thames Water.

In today's #vatniksoup, I'll introduce an Australian hacker, publisher and activist, Julian Assange. He's best-known as the founder of WikiLeaks, leaking hacked and stolen data, cooperating with the Russian intelligence, and for being under criminal investigation in the US.

In today's #vatniksoup, I'll introduce a South African-American(!) businessman and social media figure, Elon Musk (@elonmusk). He's best-known for being the wealthiest man in the world, running Tesla Inc., SpaceX & Twitter, and for parroting Kremlin's propaganda narratives.

I’m a young Ukrainian, and I’m fighting for my country willingly because it's what you do when a genocidal regime is trying to wipe you out of the world map. So who gave a right to some fat-pocket idiot like you, Mr Sucks, to write this bullshit and make presumptions on the internet? You know nothing about Ukraine and Ukrainians.

So just go fuck yourself.

[Richard Woodruff 🇺🇦 @frontlinekit]

My final interview at the kitchen, @AnnaFromUA_YT did an absolutely fantastic job, also her camera crew nailed it, stunning visuals, my favourite part: our wonderful Yuliia explaining how a FLK Volunteer helps all of Ukraine not just 🧑‍🍳

I rarely use the word, but this is the language of a fascist with contempt for the rule of law.

[Timothy Snyder @TimothyDSnyder]

That Trump will be tried for his coup attempt is not a violation of his rights. It is a fulfillment of his rights. It is the grace of the American republic. In other systems, when your coup attempt fails, what follows is not a trial.

This one graph shows the crisis in England's NHS in a way you've never seen before.

Follow the thread to see what's happening to migrants who land on Lesbos these days - and how painstaking real journalism is.

[Bad Baltic Takes @BadBalticTakes]

I can neither confirm nor deny that this account was just created as a psyops to get us more #Eurovision votes.

But here’s a 🧵 about the awesomely talented women from the Baltic countries there tonight.

(Oh & 🇱🇹 ’s song is co-written by a 🇱🇻)

[Lesia Vasylenko @lesiavasylenko]

Parliament of #Ukraine sat as usual today, btw. A year in still functioning. As does the government. As does the President. As does the whole country. We didn’t fold. We keep on standing.

The West Coast has many more Spanish names (like California, Oregon, SF, or LA) than the East Coast. Why?

Because of China and the rotation of the Earth:

[Lithuanian Mission in Vienna @LT_OSCE]

Leading by example:
🇱🇹 delegation to @oscepa said today if 🇷🇺 MPs are given visas to attend OSCE PA Winter Session in Vienna (24 Feb!), 🇱🇹 MPs will not come.

As long as 🇷🇺 war of aggression ag 🇺🇦 continues, there shall be no 'business as usual' with 🇷🇺!

In today's #vatnik soup we'll travel back to Ireland, and get to a know an Irish politician and a MEP, Clare Daly. She strongly aligns herself with another Irish MEP, Mick Wallace. Like Wallace, Daly spends most of her energy appeasing Russia and China and criticizing the US.1/11

[James O'Brien @mrjamesob]

This is brilliant & incredibly relevant to the now. On a much less serious note, I wonder whether a few modern day racist bigots with newspaper columns & TV slots have been deliberately aping Enoch Powell's appearance...

Here's how being a Minister works when you have to make a policy decision. You get a written submission from officials setting out the issue & the possible policy responses with pros & cons & recommendations. Political advisers will also see the submission & feed in thoughts. /1
