🇺🇦 Zelensky recorded a major address marking the anniversary of the start of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine
The video for the first time offered a detailed look at the president’s underground bunker — the place where key decisions were made in the first days of the war.
“It was here that I told Biden I would not leave Ukraine. I need ammunition, not a ride,” Zelensky recalled.

“This is the best show Putin could ever dream of.
You will keep deliberating — and it will take you an eternity.”
Highly recommended to watch the full video!
🇪🇪 Estonia's government app not only shows how much you need to pay in taxes, but also how much the state pays for you.
Making it very transparent where your taxes go to, and what benefits your country gives you.
Estonia is leading the way in Digitalisation for Europe 🇪🇺
I asked someone high up in government,
“How would you reform nuclear regulation to maintain safety, while optimizing economics?”
They asked to remain anonymous, but here’s their take: 🧵
finally completed a very important task i’ve been avoiding for several months. it took 8 minutes and zero effort on my part and i felt immediate and immense relief. i probably won’t learn from this
Here's what happened inside the White House after the Oval Office shouting match:
Trump huddled with his key advisers immediately afterward inside the Oval.
According to a White House official, Trump consulted Vance, Rubio, Bessent, etc. That was when Trump decided that Zelensky was "not in a place to negotiate." He directed Secretary Rubio and his national security adviser Mike Waltz to deliver the message: it was time for Zelensky to leave.
The Ukrainians were holding nearby in a separate room. (That's standard for foreign leader visits.) Typically they reconvene for lunch. But the Ukrainians would not be dining at the White House. As the prepared food sat nearby on carts in a hallway, the Ukrainians were instructed to leave.
The White House official said the Ukrainians wanted to continue the talks. But they were told no.
Zelensky left shortly thereafter.
Yesterday, the US stock market plummeted after Trump announced new tariffs on the EU.
In that single hour, the market lost far more than the total value of all US aid to Ukraine.
Enough talking, it’s time to act! 1. Let’s finance our aid for Ukraine from the Russian frozen assets. 2. Let’s strengthen air policing, the Baltic sentry and the EU borders with Russia. 3. Let’s swiftly adopt new fiscal rules to finance the EU security and defence. Now!
This might be the most braindead statement I have ever seen be made by a sitting U.S. President. Calling Zelensky a dictator while someone like Putin has been in power now for over 25 years is some next level stupidity. This is the President of the United States on one of his official accounts, spouting Russian propaganda and straight up lying about the situation in Ukraine.
