Meanwhile, In Ukraine

Tonight, the Russians struck Kyiv and other Ukrainian cities and communities. The largest number of missiles was directed at the capital – at ordinary residential buildings, at schools; they burned down a food market, one of Kyiv’s oldest markets. The Russian strike effectively destroyed the Chornobyl Museum, damaged the National Art Museum and the building housing the office of Germany’s ARD. As of now, 69 people have been reported injured in the capital. Tragically, two people were killed in this senseless Russian attack. My condolences to everyone who has lost family members and loved ones.

I have already spoken with the President of France and the Prime Minister of Norway. There will be further communication with our partners today. I am grateful to everyone who is not staying silent about what Russia is doing. They are waging war solely against our people – against our memory, our history, and everything that makes up normal human life. It is important that Russia understands that they will be held accountable for all these crimes.
I’m only surprised Putin hasn’t learned the lesson of the U.S. and Iran: you can’t bomb your way to victory. 

Then a, he tried invading with troops, didn’t he?
Why do I think Putin is going to get his ass handed to him in the foreseeable future?
Russia hit a dead-end on the battlefield, so it terrorizes Ukraine with deliberate strikes on city centres.

These are abhorrent acts of terror meant to kill as many civilians as possible.

Moscow reportedly using Oreshnik intermediate-range ballistic missiles – systems designed to carry nuclear warheads – is a political scare-tactic and reckless nuclear-brinkmanship.

Next week, EU Foreign Ministers will discuss how to dial up the international pressure on Russia.
