No-Fly zone over Ukraine. Or at least - fast strengthening Ukraine's air defense. Provide Ukraine with aircraft, air defense systems. Remember: Putin is ALREADY at war against the West 1/10 #WhatUkraineNeeds
Financial support. Ukrainian economy needs to stay firm, contrary to Russia's. Ukrainian currency is ok now, compared to Russia's. This needs to be maintained. Marshall Plan for Ukraine was needed well before - even more needed now 2/10 #WhatUkraineNeeds
Strengthened anti-war coalition. More and more countries should join. Maybe a big event with dozens or hundreds of states 3/10 #WhatUkraineNeeds
Fast-track procedure of Ukraine's accession to the EU. Russia should understand that its cruelty is against its own strategic goals. More Russian aggression should lead to more Ukraine's integration with the West 4/10 #WhatUkraineNeeds
Pressure on Russia to ensure humanitarian corridors. When Russians are shelling humanitarian corridors with civilians, this is a clear crime against humanity. 5/10 #WhatUkraineNeeds
SANCTIONS: freeze all hard currency correspondent bank accounts in the EU, US, Switzerland, Japan, the UK of all Russian and Belarussian banks, and also all hard currency bank accounts of major Russian and Belarussian businesses 6/10 #WhatUkraineNeeds
blacklisting Russia and Belarus by FATF 7/10 #WhatUkraineNeeds
embargo on Russian top commodities: oil, gas, metals, minerals. Russian exports give cash for its infernal war machine 8/10 #WhatUkraineNeeds
close all EU ports for Russian ships. Russians should be unable to export 9/10 #WhatUkraineNeeds
disconnect ALL Russian banks from Swift, primarily Sberbank 10/10 #WhatUkraineNeeds

Some thought-provoking points by @harari_yuval :
> As Anne Applebaum suggested, the resistance to authority is the very essence of 'Ukraine-ness'. Even in the last 30 years, we saw 🇺🇦 rising twice in revolt when there was a danger of an authoritarian regime being established
1/4
> Before many things were known: Russia's army was stronger than the Ukrainian; NATO would not send armed forces, etc. But there was one big unknown - how Ukrainians would react. There was the option that Putin’s fantasy would come true. Now we know this was just fantasy.
2/4
> It can be an opportunity to end the culture war within the West. Ukraine is a reminder that liberalism and nationalism (in a sense of defending the country) can go together. They meet around the value of freedom. Nationalism isn't about hating minorities or foreigners.

1/4 Ukraine filed a case against the Russian Federation at the International Court of Justice, and a request for the Court to issue an order of provisional measures against Russia
2/4 Russia is perverting the modern international order. It is abusing the sacred responsibility of preventing genocide, the most serious international crime, as a pretext to commit the crime of aggression against a sovereign state
3/4 The Court has jurisdiction to hear Ukraine’s case, and to order emergency measures, on the basis of the Genocide Convention, which is one of the most important international treaties, drafted in response to the horrors of World War II and the Holocaust

Ukraine applied for EU membership today. We strongly support this decision because:
1. Ukraine has made its unequivocal pro-Western choice in 2014 and has been consistently pursuing it.
2. Ukraine is already integrated into the EU economically, politically, and culturally. De facto Ukraine is already a part of the European Union to a significant extent.

The Kyiv Declaration published. Very important address by Ukrainian civil society with key ideas how to help Ukraine's resistance. #KyivDeclaration kyivdeclaration.org
Provide Immediate Defensive Military Aid to Ukraine - Including Lethal And Non-Lethal Assistance.
We need air defence systems and anti-tank weaponry to defend our homes and cities from Russia’s use of advanced military technology, including cruise missiles. #KyivDeclaration
Implement Crippling Sanctions To Undermine Putin’s War Machine
A total ban on all Russian banks using SWIFT with immediate effect. Europe and the US must sanction Russia’s oil and gas sectors to cut off the revenues Putin uses to fund his war machine. #KyivDeclaration

1/6 THREAD: 2 urgent steps to stop Russia's war in Ukraine: #StandingWithUkraine #StopRussia #StopRussianAggression
2/6 Russia's invasion of Ukraine is taking innocent lives and devastating a peaceful country. We can stop it. There are two practical steps the international community can take to halt the Russian invasion in its tracks immediately.
3/6 1) Russia funds its wars with its oil and gas pipelines. To stop the Russian invasion, we need to demand an immediate embargo on Russian oil and gas. Only then will Putin run out of rubles for his war.
