#Немцов #AbkhaziaisnotGeorgia #SouthOssetiaisnotGeorgia
“Let's start with the most dramatic and bloody events about Ossetia and Abkhazia. the problems of South Ossetia and Abkhazia have been dragging on for a long time, they did not arise during the time of Putin or even during the reign of Yeltsin, they are much older… 🧵
…The conflict between Abkhazians and Georgians dates back hundreds of years. During the time of Stalin, who was a Georgian, there was a forced Georgification of Abkhazia. That is, Georgians moved to the territory of Abkhazia and had to assimilate there…🧵

La @FranceInsoumise est confrontée aujourd'hui à un grave problème. Son leader @JLMelenchon est confronté à ses accès passés de poutinôlatrie. Non sans raison. Nous avons exhumé un texte de 2015(extrait):
2 et tout y est, tout le logos de la propagande poutinienne sur les #nazis #Ukrainiens y est présente. Pire, y est aussi déroulé le discours de défense en règle de Poutine dans les soupçons très forts de responsabilité de Poutine dans l'assassinat de #Nemtsov. Rien n'y manque.
3 Bien sûr, ni Nemtsov, ni Navalny ne sont des opposants rêvés à Poutine et leur nationalisme plus que teinté de racisme sont aussi écœurant. Est ce pour cela que l'on doit dérouler la propagande nationaliste raciste de Poutine??? Certes non.

Russia 🇷🇺 is a beautiful country. I have many dear Russian friends.

What Russian invasion army under Putin’s orders is doing in Ukraine is condemned by all of the International community.

Russia 🇷🇺 could be a prosperous nation if only the country was not run by Putin’s Silovik kleptocrats.

The only way for Russian youth to succeed in the future is to over-throw criminal Putin and choose #peace in Ukraine 🇺🇦. Stand up to Putin insanity!
#StandWithUkraine Image
Putin’s unjustified, criminal invasion is turning Russia 🇷🇺 into a pariah state.

The phase of invasion war can be over in days or weeks, but the World will not forget in a generation. Ukrainian 🇺🇦 people will never forget Putin’s Holodomor.

1. I think Italian columnists accusing #Snowden of covering up the deaths of innocent people like #Nemtsov and other #Russian dissidents exemplifies how reactionary Italian journalism.
2. Back in '70s, Italy granted #asylum to political dissidents escaping from #Pinochet's Chile. In those days Italy had governments involved in political homicides(Pecorelli, etc) and the so-called #StrategyOfTension's TerrorAttacks(#PiazzaFontana,#Italicus,#Brescia,#Bologna)
3. Have we ever asked political dissidents escaping from #Pinochet's Chile who had got asylum from #Italy to condemn the criminality of the Italian institutions involved in the political homicides or in the #StrategyOfTension's #TerrorAttacks? NEVER ever

5 years ago, Boris #Nemtsov has been murdered in front of the #Kremlin towers.
He joined the long line of those killed for telling the truth to a criminal power & defending #freedom.
No, #Russia is not #Putin, but those who want to make it a dignified & decent country.
Today, I am re-upping my 2016 essay on the pressing message of the Russian dissidents to the West.
Never give up! Never compromise with Putin's #Russia!

And, please, read also this excellent thread (in French).
Yes, the bloody second #Chechnya war has been a starting point.
At that time, quite no one paid attention (but André #Glucksmann & a few others in the West) to what it meant and inaugurated.

Today I spoke on the Senate floor to mark the fourth anniversary of Boris #Nemtsov's assassination in Moscow.
When others were silent out of fear or complicity, Boris #Nemtsov stood up for a future where the Russian people need not risk jail or worse for simply wanting a say in how their country is run.
ICYMI: I spoke from the Senate floor in honor of Russian opposition leader Boris #Nemtsov. Four years after his assassination, justice has yet to be served. See my full speech here ⤵ wicker.senate.gov/public/index.c…
