I’m concerned with the amount of #Russia propaganda narrative seeping back in to the international discourse. Please mind the following messages thread 🧵:
Don’t arrest/prosecute #putin (at least for a while), as there’ll be no one to negotiate peace with 🤦‍♀️ really? /1
‘Stop arming #Ukraine for peace’. Oh, I guess then just issue a lot of white fabric for one giant surrender flag and forget the country ever existed. And wait and see who #putin picks next to attack /2
#Ukraine needs to start thinking of the compromises it can bring to the table 🤦‍♀️ and what compromise will #Russia bring? Stopping aggression is NOT a compromise btw! It’s a duty under international law, if we still want to think such a thing exists /3
Just give #Russia #Donbas. It’s just territory and so many lives will be saved 🤯 apart from the lives of the Ukrainians who will end up in occupation and torture prisons just because they love Ukraine. But who cares about those right? /4
Just give #Russia Donbas. It’s all they want really. - what what? Didn’t we hear that about #Crimea in 2014? Where did that get us on 24.02.22? /5
How about neutrality for #Ukraine? Umm… interesting would that come before or after the delivery of white fabric for the surrender flags? /6
Please be mindful of these proposals. There is more and more of them every day. They only mean that the #russia propaganda machine has adapted to the situation and is starting to work on the minds of the international community

Long term consequences of #Russia aggression against #Ukraine: thread 🧵/1
Ukrainian children are deprived of education as schools are closed because of possible attacks. #Ukraine will no longer be among countries with higher literacy rates /2
Children witnessing war crimes, growing up in basements and under artillery fire will definitely change the psychosocial portrait of our nation /3

To those still believing that the killing of Ukrainians may be stopped by #Ukraine giving up territory to #Russia: this will bring more war, more devastation and more deaths 🧵/1
Territory is not empty fields or woodland. It’s places where Ukrainian people live. Giving up territory = betrayal of Ukrainians who want to remain Ukrainian in a Ukrainian Ukraine /2
Ceding territory will cause unrest in #Ukraine: people will be separated from friends and family. People will feel abandoned and discriminated /3

#russia lost over 12 bln USD in 42 days of its war against #Ukraine. That’s nothing, considering their 600 bln USD reserves. #SanctionRussia /1
#Russia gets 500 mln EUR / day PROFIT from oil and gas sales. EU pays 800 mln EUR/day to Russia /2
EU can pay because SWIFT is still available to most #Russia banks /3

Peace talks🧵/1 #Russia saying it doesn’t mind #Ukraine joining the #EU is utterly offensive. RF continues to think itself more sovereign than other states
The key point from #Ukraine: all negotiations possible ONLY after total deoccupation of #Ukraine. So #Russia soldiers go home and then we talk /2
Just to make it clear to those in doubt: #Ukraine is a non-nuclear country. There are no foreign military bases in Ukraine. Ukraine is not a member of any military alliance /3

Couple things I don’t get: 1) why should #Ukraine consider making concessions to #Russia 2) why is everyone so focused on @NATO inaction and not calling on @UN? /1
Ukraine will not be making concessions for the sake global peace and security. /2
Should #Ukraine give in to #putin crazy fantasies, all dictators will get inspired to start wars of aggression. Ukraine won’t be responsible for this /3

Reportedly death squads follow #Russia military convoys with order to kill deserters and all soldiers refusing to execute orders. Putin clearly gets his inspiration from Stalin in WW2 and mixes in a bit of Hitler. #StopPutler
This will now be a 🧵/2: #Russia sends draftees and ‘alternates’ (communal service workers) to #Ukraine. Their job is to distract Ukrainian military as the professional army advances. Boys turned into cannon fodder -this is what it really is
