This is just a reminder that there are a wealth of great scholars of Russia and Ukraine who could speak on two years since Russia escalated its war against Ukraine. Lean on expertise.

Amen to that. Hopefully, we're at least past the place where Ukrainians are not invited to speak as this terrible anniversary is reached.
Two Years of War in Ukraine: Are Sanctions Against Russia Making a Difference?
https://www.cfr.org/in-brief/two-years-war-ukraine-are-sanctions-against-russia-making-difference
Russia are spending a third of their GP on the war in Ukraine. This is not sustainable.
Russia invaded Ukraine two years ago this past week. Reminder that it's death to dictators everywhere.
A big difference between Ukraine and Russia is that Russia is launching weapons from Iran and North Korea into Ukraine, while Ukraine is not allowed to use its NATO weapons on Russia. China and the Pentagon need to talk about this.
I think most would agree that the consummate recklessness is all on Putin & Russia, who were the first to send troops into Ukraine. And this, despite Russia being part of a security agreement for Ukraine signed years ago.
'Ruling class'? Are you suggesting that Russia is a communist state?
On this day 10 years ago, the protests of the Euromaidan began against then-President Viktor Yanukovych's decision not to sign the EU-Ukraine Association Agreement and his turn to Russia and the Eurasia Economic Union. Since then Ukraine wages its war of liberation against Russia.
“Since the failure of offensives in 2023 by both Ukraine and Russia, a narrative is coalescing that the war in Ukraine has reached a stalemate…This perception of stalemate, however, is deeply flawed.” From Jack Watling at @foreignaffairs.bsky.social

Last year’s counteroffensive failed—but the West can prevent a Russian victory this year.
www.foreignaffairs.com"There are widespread fears that Russia is trying to destabilize Bosnia and the rest of the region to shift at least some world attention from its war in Ukraine."
The Bosnian Serbs’ separatist leader is vowing to keep weakening his war-scarred country until it tears apart, despite a pledge by the United States to prevent that.
apnews.comRussian scholars in the US on Fulbright and other exchange programs are a small, but distinct category of victims of Putin's war against Ukraine: www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202.... The rules specify that they have to return to Russia, which is dangerous for those who are against the war.
With today marking two years since Russia escalated its war against Ukraine, I wrote a short piece sharing what we know at this point: oleksadrachewych.com/2024/02/24/t...
It has been two years since Russian president Vladimir Putin announced the beginning of the “special military operation” in Ukraine. While much ink has been spilled trying to analyze the events over t...
oleksadrachewych.comAnyway this is a bit pointless ofc russia has done war crimes its just upsetting that ukraine is trying to keep this shit going and sending all Ukrainians to hell
🇷🇺 Navalny’s death, which comes nearly two years to the day after Russia invaded Ukraine and ahead of sham elections in March, is a reminder that Putin’s regime is waging a war on two fronts — externally against Ukrainian citizens and internally against its own.

Discussion of “proxy war” is an attempt to distract from the fact that Russia invaded Ukraine. Russia is stealing Ukraine. Russia is killing Ukrainians. Russia is forcing occupation upon them.
When was the last time you mentioned Iran’s proxy war on Israel?
This has to stop! Every day Russia continues its attacks on people who are at the mercy of these attacks. We must do everything we can to ensure that Russia stops these attacks and is prepared to negotiate. And we must not stop supporting Ukraine and the people there!

Russia shelled civilian infrastructure and settlements in Ukraine's southern regions of Kherson and Dnipropetrovsk overnight, regional officials said on November 27.

Russia - Ukraine war
While no actions was taken from Ukraine side to threaten Russia independence, Russia started attack on Ukraine because it "feel threatened" ?
This is BS.
Russia just continue its attack on Ukraine that started in 2014 by taking Crimea peninsula.
Situation NOT like in Israel.
Russia has formally recognised the integrity of Ukraine on at least 8 occasions.
Doing it again will be just as binding on them as all the other occasions.
There is only one solution that will work and not lead to another war - Russia back in its own territory and NATO in Ukraine up to the border
The problem is that this isn’t Russia and Ukraine where there are obvious good or bad guys in this conflict. Just seems like a lot of people are getting egg on their face over this.
Reminder: Ukraine is still fighting for its survival.
Russia is waging a massive information campaign right now that Ukraine is inevitably loosing. Although things have been better, Ukraine is neither on the verge of collapse nor is Russia doing fine. Both are disinformation.
‘It’s their turn now:’ Ukrainians call on government to demobilize exhausted soldiers fighting for nearly two years [Grim. There was a lot of criticism of Russia not allowing its soldiers to rest, but it seems this has happened in Ukraine too, specially since they are less than 1/3 the size Russia]
Over a hundred women braved a snowstorm in early December to gather in central Kyiv’s Independence Square and call on the government to demobilize their relatives who have been on the front lines si...
kyivindependent.comOne of the most interesting aspects of the two terrible conflicts is that most of the people online who supported Russia (or at least the appeasement of Russia) support the Palestinian cause while most of the Ukraine supporters are on the Israeli side.
