Putin = Hitler
😡 Let’s face it. Vladimir Putin has no morale. He’s a criminal. His only goal in life is war. He doesn’t care about his people. He only cares about himself. He wants to make Russia “great again” but not for his people, for himself. After Ukraine, he will look around and select his next target. And … read more

Path to the WWIII
‼️ 🇷🇺 Current events around the world, triggered by the criminal invasion of Ukraine, are setting the stage for WWIII.

The Apparent Weakness of Democracy
🇺🇦 Compared to the aggressors, the invaders and the criminals (Russian leadership and Russian’s army), democracy is slow to react. We need discussions between partners and allies.

NATO's Response is Too Weak
🇺🇦 As I keep watching the unbearable news from Europe, from Ukraine, something is becoming clearer by the day: NATO is failing its mission of defending Europe’s integrity.

Going Downwards
I don’t know about you but I find current events in Ukraine very disturbing and distracting.

And Suddenly, No More COVID
🦠 It is fascinating to see all media switch from one crisis to another, on a dime. A few days ago, COVID took the majority of air time. Now, no more, it’s the crisis in Ukraine. It’s as if COVID had vanished from the surface of the earth, just like that. Just a simple observation. 🇺🇦 read more
