Regardless what happens in #Ukraine the old order is gone & new is being born.There is no middle ground in this fight, you either fight for it now or you will be forced to do it later. Bold leaders do it now,weak surrender to fate.This fight is about democracy & against autocracy
Frank #Wisner, American patriot and great friend of Kosovo has died today. I vividly remember his posture and presence that gave the sense of being in the presence of great man. Rest in peace friend and hero of Kosovo!
Condolences to his family and everyone who knew him!

@Diplo_Peter Dear Ambassador, as far as I am aware Germany has recognised Kosovo as an independent country? @AuswaertigesAmt is that new official map of the region?
Mr President @avucic, if this is the official position of the Serbian Government, the EU accession talks are becoming increasingly pointless. Friendship with war criminals+the dismantling of democracy may lead to the Kremlin, but definitely not to the EU.

If Putin is a dictator. That means Russia is a totalitarian state. I don’t know what George Orwell was talking about. It’s actually very pleasant. I think of that sometimes when I walk the Moscow streets. The groups of joggers in their fluorescent clothing, the teachers supervising playful children on their day trips, the sidewalk cafes bustling. The Western mainstream press lives in a bubble all of it’s own.
Although I’m currently reading a lot of Russian literature. It’s pretty jarring to be sitting in a modern, Moscow, hipster cafe with the historic suffering of its people, seeping through almost every page. Times have rather changed.
Identically in cooperation with Russia, lead by Konstatin Kosachev from Russian side, Serbian state has infiltrated Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe and drafted through Dick Marty his report, proven false now, that was an excuse to set up special court for Kosovo.
Since the first days of the full-scale invasion, Albania has supported Ukraine in our struggle for freedom and territorial integrity.
During the meeting with Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama @ediramaal we signed the Treaty on Friendship and Cooperation between Ukraine and Albania. This document will help to strengthen our cooperation with Albania and Ukraine's position in the Balkans.
Today we also discussed Ukraine's defense needs and potential joint arms production.
We are grateful to the Albanian government and people. We will never forget Albanian society's warm attitude toward Ukrainians.
On this day in 1931, in the center of Zagreb, the Yugoslav royal regime liquidated Croatian scientist, albanologist and freedom fighter Milan Sufflay. The alliance of Croats and Albanians was particularly dangerous for the survival of the hegemonic Yugoslav dictatorship.
Ultranationalist #Djokovic supporting terror & terrorism by mourning three Serbian terrorists killed by Kosovo Police. This is another shameful act in a series of unacceptable acts by a common Balkan Ultranationalist not worthy of a Tennis champion.

Mic Drop by Prime Minister 🇦🇱 Edi Rama:
“This is not a special operation, but a continuation of a good tradition and practice. Let you [Russia] stop the war, and Mr. Zelensky will not speak out,”
Dear @EdiRamaal, today at the UNSC you showed the world how to correctly handle Russia, its lies, and its hypocrisy. I thank you for steering the Presidency in such a principled manner.
I am equally anti-Putin, anti-Azov, anti-Wagner and anti-NATO. I am working toward a just Peace for the peoples of Ukraine, Russia, Europe, Africa, the Americas and Asia. I am, in other words, a humanist internationalist. What are you?
Unlike any other Albanian he has reached the apogee in the fields of science by merit and hard work. Noble Prize Winner Ferid Murati Albanian-American has left indelible mark in our national history.
Rest in peace colossus 🙏

US Senator and war hero John McCain passed away five years ago on this day. He was one of the few who predicted exactly how Putin was planning to "rebuild the Soviet empire".
