During the Vietnam War, a man stood outside the White House every night, for years, holding a candle in solitary protest. One night a reporter finally approached him and asked, "Sir, do you really think you are going to change the policies of this country by standing out here alone every night with a candle?"
"Oh," the man is said to have replied, "I don't do this to change the country. I do this so the country won't change me."
10 days of writing in one tweet: I am sad and angry and appalled. Revenge is not a strategy. A child is a child is a child. Freedom and dignity for all. Release the civilian hostages now. Let the aid in. Stop and think. Without a vision for a shared future, this does not end.
"The end of the war is not a guarantee that Russia will not attack again. Therefore, there are 2 options for sustainable peace:
1) Ukraine in NATO
2) Disintegration and de-imperialization of Russia" - @HopkoHanna during the presentation of the sociological research study “WAR. PEACE. VICTORY. FUTURE”

Unmasking Russia’s myths in #Africa: In 2019, Russia made a number of promises to African leaders. 4 years later, achievements are far from the promises. Regardless of where they go, one thing remains constant – they keep spreading lies. This is what Russia does. #DontBeDeceived
#Prigozhin who called Russian chief of staff Gerasimov & minister of defense Shoigu “perverts” and “faggots,” shot down several Russian aircrafts, killed, executed a ton of Russians and Ukrainians seems happy. He us neither in Belorus nor in Africa but in his own hotel in St.Pete
I noticed that a lot of people from Western democracies with imperial past don’t get that ethnic Russians living in Ukraine (especially Crimea), the Baltics, Caucasus are not indigenous ethnic minorities.
They are mostly Russia’s colonial settlers.
