For four years, Ukraine has chosen hope, and Europe chooses to stand with them. 🇪🇺🇺🇦
The EU stands firm:
👉 Providing a safe harbour for over 4 million people
👉 Delivering 11278 generators to keep the lights on
👉 Investing €36.8 billion to rebuild the nation’s lifeblood, from schools to hospitals
👉 Securing €194.9 billion in total support, including a new €90 billion loan for 2026-27
👉 Advancing EU accession because Ukraine is family

On the left, a blue ribbon adorned with gold stars (from the EU flag) and a yellow and blue ribbon (from the Ukrainian flag) are intertwined in a knot. The right side features the bold white text "YOUR FREEDOM IS OUR FREEDOM" against a blue background, with a small European Union flag icon in the bottom right corner.
Tonight, the colours of Ukraine on our headquarters stand as a reminder of the courage and resilience of its people, and the enduring pain of a war that continues, after four years.
Not just as a symbol of solidarity, but as a tribute to those who have lost their lives, and a call to redouble our efforts towards a just and lasting peace.
Europe's shared values, strength, and commitment will never waver.
🇺🇦 is Europe's beacon of resilience and hope. The unyielding spirit of a nation that has for four years been fighting full-scale unprovoked violence and destruction.
The flag we raise today is not only a testament of Ukraine’s fight for freedom and self-determination, it is also a symbol of a Europe that stands united in the face of aggression.
Ukraine’s cause is the cause of just peace on our whole continent. With all our gratitude and determination, together, we #StandWithUkraine.

Cartoon showing two neighboring houses. One house shows people watching a movie and listening to music. A thermostat on the wall indicates it's 21 degrees Celsius inside. A person is holding a smartphone in his hands with a low battery symbol visible on the display. He is looking a a socket to charge it; the socket is currently taken by a plug that connect to a cord that goes outside and to the roof of the house, where it is powering a large LED sign mounted on the roof. The sign reads: 'Europe stands with Ukraine'. The neighboring house, with a tattered Ukrainian flag in the garden, is a smoking ruin. Through the shattered window we can see a mother and child shivering in the dark of the stone-cold interior.

We welcome the Council's adoption of the 19th package of sanctions against Russia.
The new EU sanctions increase the pressure on the Russian war economy, targeting energy, banks, crypto and the military industrial base.
A total ban on Russian Liquefied Natural Gas and a further clamp-down on the shadow fleet represent the strongest sanctions yet on Russia's crucial energy sector.

Behind the pipeline and the "no" symbol, there's a ship at sea. To the right of the "no" symbol, Russian rubbles are seen emerging from a crane, with shipping containers below. The overall image is in grayscale except for the red "no" symbol and the blue and yellow EU flag.
Ukraine-Liveblog: ++ Kiew: Übergabe von 1.000 Leichen durch Russland ++
Ukrainische Behörden haben die Übergabe von 1.000 Soldatenleichen durch Russland gemeldet. Nach ukrainischen Angaben sind durch russische Angriffe mindestens zwölf Menschen getötet worden.
"[...] #Peking habe auch kein Interesse an einer Niederlage oder einer Schwächung von #Russland . "Deswegen helfen sie Russland", unterstrich er. Trotz mehrerer Telefongespräche gebe es auch keinen permanenten Dialog mit dem chinesischen Staatspräsidenten #XiJinpin .[...]"

It was horrible, like being in the soundtrack of a WW2 movie: howitzers, machine guns, explosions, …, for hours. The only new thing was the buzzing of drones. The Polish Embassy is only about 100 meters from me. I heard and felt whatever hit its roof. They’re saying it was a piece of a missile. That’s the second time this year that roof has sustained damage. This time, whatever hit it penetrated the roof and wound up in the kitchen. I keep wondering what’s going to happen if an embassy takes a direct hit, however “unintentional.”#StandWithUkraine
11 years ago, in my hometown of Kharkiv, monument of Lenin – tyrant, killer, monster and a symbol of totalitarian regime responsible for death of millions – was removed by the activists from the square ❤
I see that NYTimes continues their tradition of excusing russian colonialism and their war crimes. this time by appropriating non-russian recipe as russian
this cake called "медовик" wasn't invented by russians. instead it was a common concept of many Eastern European cuisines - and is predated back to 12th century
even the first modern recipe of such cake was published in 1957 in Ukrainian cookbook

I am extremely happy to announce that my new video on the Ukraine War is here.
Putin has been bombing Ukraine, while Ukraine has found it difficult to strike back. But all of that is about to change, thanks to the new, Ukrainian FP-5 Flamingo missile.
Ukraine’s first EU-gauge railway between Uzhhorod and Chop is now open, backed by €28.6 million from the EU’s Connecting Europe and Ukraine Facilities.
This means:
✅ Faster border crossing
✅ More trade
✅ Better links to 🇸🇰🇭🇺🇦🇹 – and beyond
Part of the EU-Ukraine Solidarity Lanes, this project will help bring Ukraine closer to the EU.
A railway track is shown in the middle of the image, with the top half coloured in the yellow and blue stripes of the Ukrainian flag. The track fades into a reflection below, which is coloured with the blue and gold stars of the European Union flag. The text “Ukraine is on European tracks” is centred in the image. In the bottom right corner is the logo for the European Commission.
The great con trick, that's ReformUK. Richard Tice commutes every week or two to Dubai to see his partner. She lives there for tax purposes (yes tax avoidance), & she objects to private schools having to pay fair tax. You couldn't , make it up, these people pretend to be friends of the British people, they are parasites. https://shorturl.at/d55UX#RejoinEU#ClimateCrisis#Standwithukraine
