“When you can’t rely on legal instruments to protect society, you can still rely on people — and that’s why today I’ll be talking a lot about how women have been defending Ukraine’s freedom.” @avalaina 🇺🇦

This is appalling. Cmon US Members of Congress! Approve new military aid to Ukraine next week. There is no more time to waste.

Wishing a joy-filled Orthodox Christmas. May the spirit of kindness and compassion prevail in our lives.

New York Times continues to expand its roster of russian journalists that "propel their deep coverage of the war in Ukraine", yet the number of articles about Ukraine written by Ukrainians is minuscule. Why @nytimes?

Moscow never sleeps again.

And shouldn’t.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

Russian aggression has gone bankrupt on the battlefield. Today is already the five hundred and twenty-second day of the so-called "special military operation," which the Russian leadership expected to last for a week or two. Ukraine is getting stronger. Gradually, the war is returning to Russia's territory – to its symbolic centers and military bases, and this is an inevitable natural and fair process. But we must be aware that, just like last year, Russian terrorists can still attack our energy sector and critical facilities this winter. Today we discussed with the communities the current state of preparation for all possible scenarios.

Historical moment: the dismantling of the emblem of the Soviet Empire from the "Motherland" monument in Kyiv

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

After today's Russian missile attack on Kryvyi Rih, six people are known to have been killed, including a child, a girl. She was only ten years old. 69 people were injured.

In Kherson, a police officer was killed by artillery fire... Nine people were wounded, including a child and four volunteers.

To ensure the safety of our cities, to protect the normal life of Ukrainians and our children, our military must have enough long-range weapons, enough means to defeat terrorists... The world's sanctions pressure against Russia deserves to be significantly increased.

Now there is more and more open information, including investigations by journalists, about how a terrorist state circumvents global sanctions and obtains critical components for weapons production. And, by the way, we have repeatedly provided such information to our partners in a classified regime.

We must act together. Significantly strengthen sanctions for terror. Significantly limit the channels of delivery of critical components for missile production to Russia. And we must respond with determination - determination to supply Ukraine with the necessary modern weapons, including long-range missiles, so that we can remove this terrorist threat that Russia is creating against our people, against our children.

All of us together in the world can defeat terror!

People abroad often ask me if I am afraid to return to Kyiv, which is regularly shelled by Russia. I am always happy to return. This is my home, and I love it ❤️

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

The execution of a Ukrainian captive…
This is a video of Russia as it is. This is a video of 🇷🇺 trying to make just that the new norm.
Everyone must react. Every leader. Don't expect it to be forgotten.
We are not going to forget anything. The defeat of 🇷🇺 terror is necessary.

Eastern European women are some of the most trafficked groups in the world bc they’re fetishized. Ukrainian women who are refugees are at huge risk for this and it’s happened a lot in the past year. It’s not innocent or harmless to constantly post about how beautiful they are.

“Putin is not afraid of NATO, he’s afraid of freedom creeping closer to Russia’s border. This is a war between two systems: democracy and authoritarianism,” notes @avalaina #UkrainianWomen #Ukraine #Freedom
