@CanadianKobzar A far sweeping apology. It isn't wrong for a Canadian citizen to be invited to Canadian Parliament. Guilt by association is at the core of political correctness which pressures to suppress fairness and accuracy for sake of virtue posturing. The speaker was wrong to step down.
@ampalsson@pravda_eng@AndrzejDuda Zelensky is not a professional administrator or diplomat. I've seen him respond to challenging questions in an emotional manner and thought he could have phrased things better. Sometimes he responds too quickly and then has to backtrack. And sometimes the emotion carries the day.
@Boba12340769066 @arcadiosobczyk @pravda_eng@AndrzejDuda That's very interesting. So Poland benefits from reduced grain exports from Ukraine in 2022. Expectations of greater payout likely increase investments and now no one wants to give up last year's gains. So we got a 'grain bubble', but Ukraine is getting blamed. HA!
@arcadiosobczyk @pravda_eng@AndrzejDuda Funny. You just side-stepped my reply and are now obfuscating further with vague statements, that move still further away from details that matter. Your argument is weak.
@arcadiosobczyk @pravda_eng@AndrzejDuda Poland objects to an 'obligation to buy'? Isn't it more like an objection to compete with lower and cheaper standards of production? Also. The further Ukraine's grain has to travel, the more it adds to ultimate cost at point of sale.
@ampalsson@pravda_eng@AndrzejDuda Yes. This looks bad. But how much 'gratitude' is enough? Ukrainians pay with their lives and right now the numbers are probably through the roof. Ukraine got seduced with promises of 'security guarantees' - and now gets only the consolation prize - weapons. That looks bad too.
@pravda_eng@AndrzejDuda Details matter. Does Ukraine only want transit through Poland for its grain sales? Does the 'market' which Polish farmers need include countries where Ukraine also wants to sell? This ban is against EU rules - Ukraine is not yet in EU. Agree that this looks 'ungrateful'. Bad move
@pravda_eng@AndrzejDuda Poland is not putting itself at risk by being a staging area for US deliveries of weapons - it is making any attack on it far more likely to trigger a US response, since US soldiers would be at risk - that makes it safer.
@nostradamus_va@general_ben Budapest Memorandum. 1994. Russia, US and Great Britain gave security guarantees to Ukraine in exchange for Ukraine giving up its nuclear weapons, strategic bombers and dismantling most of its military. You don't seem to know much.
@jaimi85012502@atwellnick1@BadBalticTakes The quote on the billboard - 'Will you remember my words: Russia will disappear from the face of the Earth, when the Ukrainian sun rises." This; sounds like a prophecy; and alludes to Ukraine being/holding something without which Russia can not survive. I now know what this is.
@lililenton@NVThai1@visegrad24 I've heard of the book. It focuses on an effect while carefully avoiding the cause. It would be counterproductive to discuss it now - and on Twitter - when Ukrainians and Jews are just beginning to confront their historic 'entanglements.'
