I am grateful to Canada for its new package of sanctions against more than 160 entities linked to Russia’s shadow fleet. Today, during our meeting with @MarkJCarney, we discussed strengthening sanctions pressure on Russia. And it is important that such decisions are being made.
We also discussed formats of defense cooperation, Canada’s participation in financing the production of Ukrainian drones under the Danish model, and cooperation in the energy sector. Importantly, Canada will continue to provide Ukraine with energy support and assistance in recovery.
I thank Mark for his strong position during the G7–Ukraine meeting and for all the support for our people. We truly have strong allies and the Prime Minister’s significant personal engagement in supporting Ukraine. And this is highly valuable.
Los musulmanes de toda Europa están conmocionados tras la histórica y valiente decisión de Suecia: dejará de usar el término «islamofobia», acuñado por los Hermanos Musulmanes, por considerarlo un concepto manipulado políticamente para silenciar las críticas al islam.
La ministra de Asuntos Exteriores sueca, Maria Malmer Stenergard, anunció que su gobierno presionará a la Unión Europea y a las Naciones Unidas para que dejen de usar este término fraudulento.
El concepto de «islamofobia» fue diseñado deliberadamente para equiparar la crítica legítima a la doctrina islámica con el racismo. Se utilizó como arma para silenciar el debate sobre textos islámicos fundamentales que contienen mandamientos para hacer la guerra, violar y someter a los no musulmanes.
Suecia acaba de reconocer lo que millones de europeos ya saben: criticar una religión que abiertamente llama al asesinato y la esclavitud sexual de los no creyentes no es una fobia, sino sentido común y autoconservación.
Esto supone un duro golpe para el lobby islamista en toda Europa.
¿Estás de acuerdo con la decisión de Suecia?
This baby was only 8 months old when he was kidnapped by Palestinian terrorists from his home, along with his brother and mother, and taken to an underground terror tunnel in Gaza.
They were all murdered in that dark tunnel, alone and afraid.
Never forget how this war started.
🚨🔥 UN ÁRABE DE KUWAIT DESTRUYE EL DISCURSO PALESTINO DE LA ONU EN LA ONU‼️
Jasem Aljuraid, periodista kuwaití:
“Señor Presidente,
He oído el término «colonizadores». Pero, ¿quiénes son los verdaderos colonizadores? Un reino judío gobernó Judea durante mil años. Nosotros, los árabes, nos apoderamos de esta tierra.
¿Quién arabizó a los egipcios, fenicios, persas y amazighs? Fuimos nosotros, los árabes.
¿Por qué, entonces, el consejo consagra una mentira al mantener un punto permanente en la agenda sobre Palestina, mientras ignora el regreso a casa del corazón indígena de Israel?
Seamos claros sobre quién defiende realmente nuestra soberanía. Hoy, Israel lucha por la paz, liberando a Gaza de los terroristas de Hamás y protegiendo a los iraníes de la República Islámica.
Lo que Israel está haciendo con la Guardia Revolucionaria Islámica —impidiendo que un régimen genocida adquiera armas nucleares— es un regalo para la humanidad.
Existen 57 países islámicos y un único estado judío, Israel. A pesar del odio constante que se busca eliminarlo, Israel no solo ha sobrevivido, sino que ha prosperado.
No creo en los milagros, pero este es uno de ellos.
Así que le pregunto a la ONU: ¿cuándo pondrán fin al ritual de condenar a Israel?
¿No es hora, en cambio, de aprender de Israel? De cómo derrotar al terrorismo, defender las sociedades libres y buscar la paz.
Gracias."
I am grateful to the UK for taking this important step against Russia’s oil fleet – a shadow fleet tanker has been detained off the UK's southern coast.
It was Russia’s hubris, fueled by high oil and gas revenues, that paved the way for this war, and every decision by partners that deprives Russia of money also limits the war itself.
I thank @Keir_Starmer and all Britons for such principled resolve. And Europe urgently needs to take legislative steps to enable not only the detention of tankers and restrictions on oil shipments, but also the confiscation of the oil they carry. This will certainly help bring peace closer.
SEN. KELLY: How many times have Vance and Rubio been to Ukraine? Zero. Has Trump been to Ukraine? No.
He invited Putin to United States, but he still failed to send anybody at high level in his government to visit Ukraine. Have Kushner or Witkoff been to Ukraine? They have not.
Russia is carrying out hundreds of strikes against Ukrainian cities and communities, attacking our civilian infrastructure every day. This past week alone, the Russians have launched 1,920 attack drones, 1,790 guided aerial bombs, and 17 missiles of various types against Ukraine. We need to step up our countermeasures against these attacks. We are preparing for meetings with partners to strengthen our defense against this Russian terror. The G7, EU, and NATO summits are ahead. And it is very important that these negotiations result in concrete decisions. We expect meaningful meetings with our partners.
First and foremost, we need support for air defense and our long-range capabilities, an expansion of cooperation in the Drone Deals format, and further strengthening of sanctions pressure on Russia. We must end this war in a dignified way and with guaranteed security. And it is through strength, the unity of partners, and pressure on Russia that this can be achieved in a lasting way. I thank everyone who is helping us!
Our warriors have achieved good results in applying long-range sanctions against important facilities on the territory of Russia and in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine.
More than 700 kilometers from our state border, in Russia’s Yaroslavl region, SSU warriors struck an oil facility that was important for the reserves of the aggressor state.
Warriors of our army reached their targets in Russia’s Tula region – specifically, the Azot plant, whose operations are critical to explosives production capabilities.
Air traffic restrictions were imposed at six Russian airports, and overall, since yesterday evening, 28 regions of Russia have been under air raid alerts.
There were also hits on the occupier’s military logistics in the temporarily occupied territory of Ukraine.
Ukraine is carrying out its plan of long-range sanctions against Russia and the assigned tasks regarding mid-range strikes in response to Russia’s refusal to end this war. We have offered the Russian leadership every possible format for negotiations – and the only response was continued aggression and attempts to expand it. It stands to reason that the war is coming back to where it came from. Ukraine needs peace. Glory to Ukraine!
I stand with @GwynethPaltrow! Boycott #quintosapore, the business of anti-Israeli @liviafirth Giuggioli! “Colin Firth’s ex-wife ‘cancels’ Gwyneth Paltrow over Israel advert” https://t.co/5LIqEONm04
63 federal courts threw out all of Trump’s BS claims.
All of them. The Supreme Court rejected all of Trump’s BS claims. He now screams and cuts off interviews because he constantly lies about elections being rigged. He’s projecting again.
Trump's 0 for 4 on his midterm report card.
He promised to make the economy bigger and better, lower prices immediately, end the war in Ukraine in 24 hours, and stop endless wars. He's delivered on none of it.
A Muslim man from Gaza openly admitted that the Palestinian desire to kill Jews is stronger than their will to live or build a better future for their children.
This is what the media in the West ignores about the people of Gaza because it damages the false image of Islam as a religion of peace.
According to Islam, murdering Jews as human sacrifices for Allah guarantees Muslims a place in paradise — along with virgin sex slaves for eternity.
The Western media deliberately hides these statements because they destroy the carefully constructed narrative that the conflict is about “occupation” or “land.” Once you understand that most Muslims in Gaza and Ramallah view the murder of Jews and Christians as a religious obligation rather than a political dispute, the entire framework of “two states for two peoples” collapses.
An appropriate post from Zelensky on the anniversary of D-Day. Nothing from Trump. Which is appropriate, since Zelensky is a fighter against tyranny, unlike Trump.
Putin is counting on America to grow tired, divided, and distracted.
Tonight, the House answered with unity and resolve.
Following the successful bipartisan discharge petition I was proud to help lead, we have passed the Ukraine Support Act—comprehensive legislation to deliver critical support to Ukraine, impose further sweeping sanctions on Russia, and hold Putin accountable for his illegal war of terror.
Ukraine is fighting for its sovereignty and survival, but the stakes do not stop at Ukraine’s borders. Standing with Ukraine is a matter of American security, allied strength, and moral clarity. It tells the world that tyranny will not be met with hesitation, retreat, or silence.
From the start, I have worked to ensure America’s policy is rooted in peace through strength. This legislation gives force to that principle.
Tonight, the House stood on the side of freedom.
Now, the Senate must do the same.
The NATO-Ukraine Council met in Kyiv 🇺🇦 for the first time
While in Kyiv, @SecGenNATO highlighted the presence of all 32 Allies in Ukraine as a strong sign of the enduring bond between the Alliance and 🇺🇦 ↓ https://t.co/lIUIsV9yQc
This is our Churchill vs. Chamberlain moment. Stand with good or stand with evil.
Ukraine is a democracy invaded by a dictator who wants to erase its independence, culture and people.
Ronald Reagan would stand with Ukraine and vote yes tonight. He would choose Churchill.
Seems to me this is the biggest to date policy failure by Dems, considering that in 2021, they controlled both Houses of Congress and could have acted: "CT Social Security recipients to be hardest hit by benefit cuts; NY not far behind" https://t.co/2AV2vHDNHs
@bariweiss is no fool. But this action seems reckless. Without knowing the facts I’ll hope that Don Hewitt is not rolling over in his grave. What I’ve learned from time, everything can be undone. And it starts with a good coat of whitewash in the Oval!
By firing Scott Pelley, editor-in-chief of CBS News Bari Weiss has single-handedly destroyed the most brilliant investigative newsmagazine in network history, 60 Minutes. Weiss exemplifies everything MAGA is about: ego, incompetence, and blithering idiocy.
