Shocking videos and images are coming out of France. Historic buildings have been destroyed, hundreds of police officers have been injured, and enormous material damage has been caused amid the escalating vandalism and violence of recent days.
In the face of this senseless destruction and unjustified violence, perhaps it is now clear to everyone why Hungary advocates the strictest possible approach to migration, and why we will not weaken our border protection or immigration policy under any pressure.
I am glad that the current EU summit has made it clear that the overwhelming majority of European countries have woken up and want to break with the permissive policies of the past. We hope it is not too late.
Let there be no doubt: peaceful and lawful protest is one thing; vandalism and violence are quite another. The former is a fundamental right; the latter is a serious crime.
The Europe we all love is in serious trouble today. It is our responsibility, too, to help preserve our continent as the most wonderful place in the world for our children and grandchildren.
Europe can count on Hungary.
I express my full solidarity with the French people.
🚨 Elon Musk has finally complied with the demands and provided the list of shareholders of X Holding Corp who helped purchase Twitter. And who do you think turned out to be investors in the X platform, besides Islamists and Trump's lobby? That's right, Petr Aven and Vadim Moshkovich. Now it is absolutely obvious where Musk's love for Russia comes from. 🙄‼️
Let me remind you who Aven and Moshkovich are.
Petr Aven is a Russian billionaire and founder of Alfa Group, which is one of Putin's main financial backers. This man is completely controlled by the Kremlin. Aven is one of Putin's oldest friends. In fact, without Petr's intervention, Putin would have ended up in prison instead of becoming president. After all, Aven covered for Vladimir Putin in 1992, when Putin organized illegal trading in export licenses. Aven also attended a meeting with Putin on February 24, 2022, marking the beginning of the invasion of Ukraine.
‼️ Vadim Moshkovich is a sanctioned Russian agricultural billionaire who was a member of the Federation Council of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation. In other words, he officially belonged to Putin's innermost circle. Moshkovich owns Rusagro, Russia's largest agricultural holding company. ‼️
Another interesting figure is Al-Waleed bin Talal Al Saud, who appears on the list of investors no fewer than three times, both personally and through his company, Kingdom Holding Company. This man continues his investment business in Russia and privately supports Hamas in its war against Israel. In his investments in Russia, he regularly cooperates with Rosneft, Lukoil, and Gazprom.
✅ Everyone was wondering how it was possible that Twitter (X) shares were falling, advertisers were terminating contracts, and nobody was doing anything. After all, this was causing direct financial damage to investors.
But everyone overlooked the fact that the investors did not care about profits. They needed the platform to promote their narratives, such as supporting Putin and Russia, lobbying for a freeze of the war in Ukraine, pushing Ukraine-related issues out of the top news stories, justifying Hamas's activities, and so on. 😳
Starlink connectivity at speeds of up to 160 km/h is being restored.
Removing Starshield’s speed limit entirely is now critical for Ukraine’s defense.
Thank you, @elonmusk. We hope for your continued support.
@RepLuna@POTUS@SecRubio Madam, as a neighbour of both Ukraine and Russia, we would be delighted to support @POTUS in peace negotiations. Please note, however, that to get to a deal pressure should be put on the aggressor and not on the victim of aggression.
The “experts” confidently declared that City would collapse post-Pep. Then Rodri and several serial winners departed, and the obituaries were being written. Six games. Six wins. Victories at Old Trafford and Anfield. Just look at how the media are handling being proved wrong. What a start under the magnificent Maresca. Enjoy the ride, Blues! 🩵
The fact that City thumped Liverpool 0-3 means that most of the old hacks are coming out calling this season a farce. Had Liverpool won 3-0 they'd have been shouting from the rooftops that it was justice. Proof that today's news is tomorrow's chip paper...
The media reaction and other fan reactions are a bit bewildering. What do you want the current players and manager to do? Lie dead until the sanctions/appeal hit? I’ve seen people calling out player celebrations after scoring goals. Do people realize how crazy that sounds!
It’s still football and 11 v 11. People are making it out like City are being allowed to play while their players are using performance-enhanced drugs. The whole process has not played out yet.
As for fans what do you want them to do as well? They’re still going to go to games and support the club and players - none of this is in our control.
President Trump’s decision to lift sanctions on Russian fuel amidst Putin’s ongoing and brutal attacks on civilian targets in Ukraine makes no sense and is a betrayal of the legacy and leadership of the late Senator Lindsey Graham.
While Ukraine fights for its survival, Putin’s war machine continues to prosecute his terrorist war on civilian populations and innocent Ukrainians are dying every day.
Now, Instead of implementing the tough sanctions Lindsey Graham fought to his last breath to enact, President Trump has announced the United States is lifting sanctions on Russian energy, fueling the Putin’s war machine.
As I saw firsthand in Ukraine last month, Putin is losing this war. Ukraine has fought the Russian military to a standstill and reinvented warfare with drones taking the fight into the heart of Russia.
America should not be throwing a lifeline to Putin’s war machine. Now is the time to stand strong against Russian aggression as we did during the first Trump administration.
Putin doesn’t want peace. Putin wants Ukraine. I have no doubt that if Putin overruns Ukraine, it will only be a matter of time until Russia’s military crosses a border that our troops will have to deal with him.
America is the Leader of the Free World. For our National Security, for the security of our Allies in Europe including Ukraine, President Trump should rescind this deal immediately and return to the strong policies of our four years in the White House; impose harsh sanctions on any nation purchasing Russian energy and work with our allies to ensure Ukraine has the military support it needs to repel and defeat this Russian invasion once and for all.

Have a nice day.
The Irish team is wearing black armbands for Gaza in tonight’s game against Israel.
The Irish team hasn’t shown any solidarity with Ukraine after the summer of 2022.
The Aughinish Alumina refinery in Limerick has continued to export massive amounts of alumina to Russia throughout the war.
The aluminium is used by Russia to produce missiles that the then fire at Ukraine. The Irish players could have easily decided to protest against that, but they don’t care.
