Today Russian and Ukrainian leftists demonstrate at Russian embassies and consulates worldwide demanding freedom for all Russian anti-war prisoners. #FreeBoris https://t.co/Horqoci5e8

Most Belarusians want close relationships with Russia and with the EU. So did most Ukrainians, before Russian aggression in Donbas and annexation of Crimea. Nobody knows how to achieve good relations with Russia and with the EU. That's the problem.

"By going after women and girls who need medical care—and doctors who provide it—Polish authorities are using their powers to terrorize people instead of to protect basic rights," said a @HRW researcher. https://t.co/zW3P3cnG0Z

"as the problem of idiorrhythmy was for Barthes ‘the tension between power and marginality’, the task for eco-socialists is to define a space equidistant from the promethean excesses of eco-modernism and the ascetic excesses of degrowth communism" https://t.co/huXzLtSzts

Podemos, Spain's once-admired left bloc, has lost its tongue. It can't say that two Spanish humanitarian workers died in a RUSSIAN attack on HUMANITARIAN convoy. Podemos says it wants a 'rapid end' to the war but won't call on the aggressor to stop and pull back.

Avis aux rédactions : au lieu de relayer la tentative de diversion sur l'abaya, parlez des vrais problèmes de l'Education nationale.

Alors que Gabriel Attal a promis qu'il y aurait un prof dans chaque classe, il manque au moins un prof dans 48% des collèges et lycées.

Alarmingly, Indian Prime Minister Modi increasingly talks not just of Bharat but also of a mystical greater Bharat, of which India proper is the rightful, millennial, eternal heart. And he the lord, of course. Imperialism is bad, in any language.

[Siddharth @svaradarajan]

The word in use for the country is India in English, Tamil (In-di-ya) etc, Bharat in Hindi, Marathi and many other languages, Hindostan in Urdu and Kashmiri. These names are interchangeable depending on the language you are speaking.

"This is much larger than any one of us," said one @NLRebellion participant Yolanda de Jager. "This concerns the whole world." https://t.co/iI4EsBYQ4Z

From Palestine, to Jordan, study in the USSR, back to Palestine, to newly independent Ukraine, and since February 2022 a refugee again. Who better than Adeeb Shaheen to draw parallels between invasions and occupations?

Strike in Mariupol to mark today's Russian local elections, held also in occupied Ukraine. Social Movement (UA) calls for support to boycott, sabotage and strike. "The labour movement must play a decisive role in resistance to aggression."

The return of Russian troops only to their February 2022 positions is precisely the freezing of the conflict in a Korean scenario. Varoufakis wants the Korean 'solution' but complains that it's inevitable introduction is delayed by (Ukrainian) resistance to rhe Russian invasion.

Despite constant anti-authoritarian #iranprotest, #Islamists remain in power in #Iran. Read the interview with Frieda Afary about how they rose to power, using the contradictions of Iranian society, repressions and, unfortunately, mistakes of the leftists.

State exploitation of Russia's cutting edge biometric technologies doesn't just create immediate challenges for activists. It threatens a brave new world where people believe they have no privacy. And therefore, resistance is futile. China same same. Saudis will also purchase.

[Ukraine Solidarity Campaign 🇺🇦✊🏽🚩 @UkraineSol]

Something to celebrate. As a labour movement campaign it would be remiss of us, though, not to note Rustem Umerov's politics. He headed the body promoting privatisation in Ukraine.

Solidarity with UA against Russian imperialism, solidarity with its workers against their bosses

[Adam Novak @DrAdamNovak]

Great. Let's do something similar against the Russian World doctrine. Currently managing more armed interventions than Señor Monroe. But what place and date to meet? Maybe Moldova- Transdinestria border?

[Global Dialogue @GlobDialogue]

Neither Putin nor Biden will stop global warming. Fortunately the Ukrainian left have some ideas.

Listen to ⁦@kavita_krishnan⁩ clearly articulating the feminist principles underlying her support for Iranian women’s protests against forced imposition of hijab and the protests of hijab-wearing Muslims in India at the same time: https://t.co/vtjaQJyorU

[Kavita Krishnan @kavita_krishnan]

Not just UK & USA - this applies very much to the global South as well. Peace movements demand that the aggressor stop - not that the victim knuckle down and appease the aggressor.
