[MFA of Ukraine 🇺🇦 @MFA_Ukraine]

President of #Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy spoke at the opening of the @Festival_Cannes.

@ZelenskyyUa: “I am confident that the dictator will lose. We will win this war”.

The President received a standing ovation.

Respect!
Win on Ukraine and Lukashenko falls too!

If you are reading and sharing news about Ukraine, you are the resistance 🇺🇦

These are not clouds.
It’s the smoke rising over battlefields northwest of Kyiv.

Ukraine has submitted its application against Russia to the ICJ. Russia must be held accountable for manipulating the notion of genocide to justify aggression. We request an urgent decision ordering Russia to cease military activity now and expect trials to start next week.

The first one says the truth: “No one wanted to come. But they told us, it’s war time, you’ll be the enemy of people. So we went - demoralized and unwilling. Like cannon fodder”. The others seem to agree.

Quite possibly the best #SNL segment ever. #StandWithUkraine

[olexander scherba🇺🇦 @olex_scherba]

SNL, oh my God!… It’s 7am in Kyiv. I’m fighting tears. It’s overwhelming.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

The largest demonstration in the modern history of Estonia took place in support of Ukraine. I am grateful to the Estonian people and @AlarKaris for their solidarity in these difficult times. Mr. President, our vyshyvanka suits you.

“Nobody knows anything... Not one person in the entire motion picture field knows for a certainty what's going to work. Every time out it's a guess and, if you're lucky, an educated one.” - William Goldman (1931-2018)

The audiovisual market has no borders. So why are there no universally-applied remuneration rights for its creators? #TheAudiovisualCampaign https://t.co/3KsnUdW3Q7

Great analysis @MurrellDan as always. "It" had got me excited back in the 1990's & I predicted $100M+ opening. So happy for it doing great! https://t.co/ibfReCdYKd
