🚨🇬🇧 WATCH: Keir Starmer and Volodymyr Zelenskyy pay tribute to the fallen soldiers of Ukraine

[Alessandra Libutti 🇪🇺 🇮🇹 🇬🇧 @a_libutti]

A volte la politica si riassume in un'immagine, in un abbraccio.

Il 28 febbraio 2025 il mondo guardava incredulo Volodymyr Zelensky umiliato e poi cacciato dalla Casa Bianca da Donald Trump e J.D. Vance.

Mentre quelle immagini facevano il giro del mondo, Keir Starmer era già al telefono con il presidente ucraino, invitandolo immediatamente a Downing Street.

Il giorno seguente, quell'abbraccio davanti al numero 10 diventava il simbolo di un altro Occidente.

Non fu soltanto un gesto di umanità. Fu un messaggio al mondo: se Washington prendeva le distanze da Kyiv, l'Europa non lo avrebbe fatto.

Da quell'abbraccio prese forma una nuova fase del sostegno europeo all'Ucraina, culminata nella Coalition of the Willing e in una leadership britannica che oggi, con l'uscita di scena di Starmer, lascia un vuoto difficile da colmare.

Nel mio ultimo articolo ricostruisco perché quell'immagine è diventata il simbolo della sua eredità politica.

So, chancellor Merz values Keir Starmer's views & opinions & will stay in close contact.

France affords one of the highest honours to Keir Starmer

President Zelensky afford the freedom of Ukraine to Keir Starmer.

Labour part hierarchy, oust him as PM.

Make it make sense.

[Keir Starmer @Keir_Starmer]

Our support for Ukraine will never waver.

Slava Ukraini.

🚨 BREAKING: Keir Starmer receives a standing ovation from Labour and Lib Dem MPs as he concludes his ever final answer at PMQs

"To all across the country who struggle to be seen or heard, you're the reason I came into politics. To my wife and children, I love you. Goodbye"

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

Together with the leaders and representatives of Southeast European countries and Ursula von der Leyen, we honored the memory of our fallen warriors.

We thank each and every one of them for beginning their visit on Ukrainian Statehood Day and the Day of the Baptism of Kyivan Rus–Ukraine by paying tribute to Ukrainian heroes.

Eternal honor to the Ukrainian men and women who gave their lives for Ukraine’s independence and the security of all Europe.

🇺🇸 Trump: ​"I am not speaking with Spain, they are a waste of time. I want them to leave NATO, let's cut all ties and impose sanctions..."

​🇪🇸 Sánchez: "Stay away from us. Instead of picking a fight with us, explain your own relationship with Epstein."

[Ursula von der Leyen @vonderleyen]

Just arrived in Kyiv for my 11th visit to Ukraine in wartime.

It’s a special moment. Ukraine has built a strong military momentum. The tide is turning.

I will announce new initiatives to integrate our defence industries.

So we can produce more, and faster.

We will also discuss accession and preparations for this winter.

US President Trump to Spain: We will remove you from NATO and suspend all trade agreements..

China is preparing for Putin’s death: Beijing is looking at the dictator’s potential successors

According to The Wall Street Journal, China is increasingly building relations with Russian officials and members of the elite who could play a key role after Putin leaves power.

The war and international isolation have made Russia far more dependent on China. Putin, who was once considered by Xi Jinping a “role model,” has gradually turned into a supplicant and junior partner.

Russian authorities have uncovered attempts by Chinese intelligence to establish contacts with mid-level officials, but preferred not to publicize them in order not to damage relations with Beijing.

Today, China needs Russia far more than Russia needs China. China accounts for about 40% of Russia’s foreign tradeand roughly one-third of its export revenues.

At the same time, the alliance remains unequal. Chinese goods have flooded the Russian market, pushing out domestic manufacturers.

According to analysts, China aims to secure its influence in Russia even after a change of power in the Kremlin, turning it into an even more dependent vassal — effectively a puppet state and a resource colony.

French President Macron praises outgoing British Prime Minister Keir Starmer after the Bastille Day Parade saying how much the coalition, Europe and Ukraine owes him:

"And I would like to take this opportunity to reiterate how proud we were to work with him, and how much this coalition of volunteers owes him, and how much the commitment of Europeans to stand alongside Ukraine owes him"

"Thank you Prime Minister"

[David Franck 🇺🇦 @DavidFranckOff]

Quel honneur d’avoir de tels soldats 🇺🇦 qui défilent à nos cotés !! Écoutez les applaudissements !!!! Ça, ce sont les Français qui applaudissent !!! C’est ça la France !!!

[Jarl Finland @jalle51]

A direct, unmistakable message to Vladimir Putin. For his final Bastille Day as President, Emmanuel Macron has transformed France's national parade into a massive display of European unity and military deterrence.

Marching down the Champs-Élysées are allied European troops—including Swedish soldiers—symbolizing a united, integrated European defense shield. This high-profile parade serves as the military backdrop to the "Coalition of the Willing" summit taking place in Paris, emphasizing that Europe is ready and capable of securing its own borders and standing firm against Russian aggression. A historic farewell from Macron, cementing his legacy of European strategic autonomy. #BastilleDay #Paris #EmmanuelMacron #Nato #Sweden #EuropeDefense #Geopolitics

- Olena Zelenska 🇺🇦:

"If Ukrainian soldiers, despite fierce resistance against the enemy and the loss of their comrades, haven't got tired of liberating Ukrainian land, and if Ukrainians, despite their grief and tears, haven't got tired of defending their children and their future, how can people somewhere in a safe country get tired of reading the news?"

"Please do not get used to this war, because if everyone gets used to it, this war will never end."

Please, don't stop supporting Ukraine, they need our help 🫂🇺🇦❤️
