1/22 This is Svetlana Maniovich. She is your guide to the world of extreme Russian glamour. She radiates richness. Diamonds, furs, Rolls Royces - she has it all and more. In summer you can find her in St Tropez where she rents a villa for €150k/month, or on a yacht in Naples🧵

I wrote this piece coming home from New York to Vilnius. Back in Lithuania, I found a society in limbo between war and peace, calm on the outside, burning on the inside. Of course, it's nothing compared to the suffering of Ukrainians. My essay for @WSJ.

Many timelines go from Nobel to coup without mention of Soviet soldiers shooting civilians in #Lithuania & #Latvia under him. My highschool English teacher's dad was shot dead at Vilnius TV tower on Jan 13, 1991. Criminal #Gorbachev refused to be a witness in the inquiry into it.

@chriseidhof You could try Anka, they have a free version available that might be enough https://t.co/v1VNc0eZsI

@welt intentionally ignores the Ukrainian community in Berlin, and covers the war through the voice of Marina Ovsyannikova, a propagandist of 🇷🇺, the aggressor state. A long thread 👇

Turkey makes a gift to Lithuania – fully equipped combat drone Bayraktar TB2. We shall pay 1.5 million euro to arm it with best ammunition.

The rest of money – 4.4 million euro – according to the deal - will go to humanitarian, defensive or rebuilding projects for Ukraine

[🇱🇹 www.lithuania.lt @Lithuania]

5 million Eur. for Bayractar for @Ukraine. We did it in 3 days! ✌ 
Most donations of crowdfunding were small, between 10-500 €.

[Andrius Tapinas @AndriusTapinas]

It is 3pm in Vilnius and we have 4,4 million Euro. We are going to finish it tonight!

Join me in the final live fundraiser on Laisves TV Youtube and my Facebook channel at 8pm Vilnius time (EEST time)

5 million for Bayraktar in 3 days

[Andrius Tapinas @AndriusTapinas]

Never did people of one country decide to buy a heavy war machine for another country
Until now
Lithuanians are buying Bayraktar for Ukraine
We need 5 million euro. It is a staggering sum, but in less than 24 hours we have already raised 1.5 million euro.

🧵 1/9: On this day a year ago, an aircraft was hijacked in the sky over Belarus. At the time I worked at University, where Sofia Sapega, a victim of an attack, was a student.

#BREAKING Pro-Russian mob has attacked and beaten a Ukrainian TV team at a Soviet war memorial in Berlin. Berlin police was unable to protect the journalists, a witness say. Yesterday, Berlin police went on peaceful Ukrainians who commemorated WWII - and removed their flags.

Baltic States DO NOT Celebrate 9th of May, "Victory Day". Here's why: 1/8 ⬇️

@saintjavelin are you shipping from outside of EU? The shipping seems expensive - at the moment the stickers cost 7.95 and shipping is 7.95 on top. I would rather give you more money than to DHL/UPS…

[LRT English @LRTenglish]

Vytautas Landsbergis, the first post-independence leader of Lithuania, wrote a public letter to the leaders of Germany, urging them to stop imports of Russian oil and gas amid Moscow’s continuing war on Ukraine.

Around a hundred people rallied outside the German embassy in Vilnius on Monday evening urging Berlin to stop buying energy resources from Russia and supply more weapons to Ukraine.

@zaborona_media @Jake_Hanrahan His fiancee managed to find his body in the streets of Mariupol and then organized the transportation back to Lithuania. Her interview was published in LT media few days ago but I didn’t see anything in English yet https://t.co/qf59sBwK6H

Swimming Through

The performance “Swimming Through” is a call for action in support of the Ukrainian people who are facing genocide committed by Russia.

[Tadeusz Giczan @TadeuszGiczan]

Yesterday, RIA Novosti published a lengthy piece titled "What Russia should do with Ukraine", which explains in detail what Russia understands by denazification. It's truly horrific: 1/6

[Eugene Finkel @eugene_finkel]

As a genocide scholar I am an empiricist, I usually dismiss rhetoric. I also take genocide claims with a truckload of salt because activists apply it almost everywhere now.

Not now. There are actions, there is intent. It's as genocide as it gets. Pure, simple and for all to see
