In his article for @washingtonpost Michael O’Hanlon calls for a talk about compromises with Putin and conceding Ukrainian territories as the only way to stop the war. His whole argument is based on 2 key ideas which are important to address. 1/4

1️⃣ – signing a peace agreement with Russia will stop the war.
It will rather give Putin a chance to gather strength for a next attack (not only in Ukraine) and will show other countries that this is a working approach. More wars will follow. 2/4

Putin cannot be rewarded with a compromise for ruining the global security system. This precedent is too dangerous. It will lead to disaster in the whole world. 3/4

1/3 One of the most important sanctions against Russia is the ban to ensure and re-ensure 🇷🇺 ships. This makes it much more difficult for Russia to trade by sea - traditionally one of its main export routes. Of course, #Russia is doing all it can to side-step these sanctions.

2/3 Marine insurance is usually done not by single companies but by P&I (Protection and Indemnity) Clubs - associations of marine insurance providers. In a way they are policy makers in this area. They must play the key role here - refuse (or greatly increase) insurance costs.

3/3 Some of the P&I clubs have already done so. However, only a global consolidated effort will make a difference and stop Russian ships from carrying oil. This will significantly diminish Russian ability to finance war in Ukraine.

1/3 Mykola and Liudmyla Mykhailets went to #Kremenchuk mall yesterday to look at blenders when Russian missile hit.
They are now in hospital with multiple wounds. Mykola managed to stay conscious and free his wife from the rubble. They believe themselves to be very lucky.

2/3 Yulia, 22, lived in temporarily occupied Luhansk. She and her mom fled to Kharkiv from the war, and then - to Kremenchuk, looking for more safety. Yulia worked in the mall and was wounded by the rocket strike.

3/3 18 people have been confirmed dead and 21 remain missing. No chances to find anyone alive under the rubble.

The mall was hit with an old Soviet X-22 missile. Russia first denied that it was responsible, then changed its tune to claiming to have targeted military objects.

1/3 It is already obvious that war in Ukraine has global repercussions. The consequences of Putin's invasion outside Ukraine - price increases, inflation and stagnation - are already felt by many people in the world. Will they be able to withstand this blackmail?

2/3 The cost of not helping Ukraine would be much higher. If Putin got away with his invasion, he would go further. All global order and international laws would become trash. The words "democracy" and "freedom" would lose their value.

@POTUS

3/3 Now communication and unity of leaders and the people is crucial. Unity of the world and Ukraine against the aggressor. Clear information on what is going on, why the prices are growing and what the governments are doing about it. @POTUS gave a good example yesterday:

1/3 Weapons provided to Ukraine cover only 10 to 15% of our needs – Denys Sharapov, Deputy Defense Minister and Brig. Gen. Volodymyr Karpenko, Land Forces Logistics Commander at Eurosatory conference in Paris, June 15 (international conference for defense and security).

2/3 Ukrainian weapon needs are defined by the following:
- very long frontlines
- equipment and weapons get destroyed in combat
- high precision and technology weapons help win today's wars

3/3 "One brigade occupies around 40 kilometers of the fence line. To cover the active combat conflict we need 40 brigades. Every brigade is 100 infantry fighting vehicles, 30 tanks, 54 artillery systems — just for one brigade, and we have 40 of them.", - Gen. Karpenko

1/3 🇷🇺 propagandist Vladimir Solovyov has just claimed that the number of Ukrainians forcefully deported to 🇷🇺 is 1.9 million, which includes 307 000 children. The UN data is 1230800. In any case, the numbers are striking. #UkraineRussianWar #UkraineUnderAttaсk

And he’s calling this “evacuation”. What a maniac. It’s as if someone break into your house, set it on fire, kill you, and then takes your children to his place “for safety”. This must be stopped. #ArmUkraineNow

UN High Commissioner for Refugees should immediately request the lists of deported Ukrainians, organize the inspection of the conditions in which they live and help to create the possibility for them to come back to 🇺🇦 or go to the country that doesn’t support 🇷🇺 regime.
