As kremlin publicly embraces the USSR's crimes as its legacy, we yet again have to remind everybody of an occupier. "No amount of bloodshed by the Soviets to defeat the Nazis can excuse the Soviets' own role as occupiers." Occupation is not liberation. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

📒🇱🇹We are happy to share the "Lithuanian Diary" of 🇮🇳Indian journalist, politician and author @mjakbar after his recent visit to Lithuania. @IndiainLithuana @LithuaniaMFA @DMickeviciene openthemagazine.com/columns/a-lith…
Today marks 85 years since Sumner Welles Declaration — a bold statement by U.S,🇺🇸denouncing the Soviet occupation of Lithuania🇱🇹, Latvia🇱🇻, and Estonia🇪🇪. At a time when 3 Baltic States were forcibly annexed by the Soviet Union, the United States declared it would never recognize…
Another night of Russian terror in Ukraine. On July 21–22, Russia launched 42 attack drones, mostly Shaheds, targeting multiple regions. Ukrainian air defense shot down or jammed 26 of them, while 7 more were suppressed by electronic warfare. In addition, Russia struck several…
Using the correct names of Ukrainian cities isn’t just about spelling – it’s about respect and acknowledging of Ukrainian identity and history. Unfortunately, many international media and organizations still use outdated, russified versions – a legacy of imperial narratives that…
And they say sanctions are not working.

The EU adopted an 18th package of economic and individual sanctions aimed at restricting the activities of critical russian oil and financial sectors, further restricting the regime's ability to continue its aggression against Ukraine. 🇪🇺 ♥️ 🇺🇦

Today marks 11 years since Russia shot down MH17, killing 298 innocent people. In 🇳🇱, I laid flowers at the National MH17 Memorial on behalf of 🇱🇹 MFA to honour the victims and stand with their families. Russia bears full responsibility. Justice&accountability must prevail.
323 votes in favour, @ua_parliament has just ratified by a constitutional majority the Agreement between Ukraine and @coe on the establishment of the Special Tribunal for the Crime of Aggression against Ukraine. We are advancing fast toward accountability for the crime of…
Lublin Triangle - strong together. 🇱🇹🇵🇱🇺🇦 @sikorskiradek @andrii_sybiha
On Statehood Day, we honour our Ukrainian friends – heirs to over a thousand years of statehood, now defending the frontlines of Europe’s freedom. Your resilience and courage inspire us. Lithuania stands firmly with you on the way to victory and full Euro-Atlantic integration.
On this day in 1410, the joint forces of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania and the Kingdom of Poland triumphed at the Battle of #Grunwald (Žalgiris), one of medieval Europe’s largest battles. The victory affirmed their place in Europe and still echoes in how we shape our region today.
Lithuania trusts and invests in U.S. defense systems: HIMARS, Black Hawks, JLTVs, Javelins, AMRAAM & many more to strengthen our capabilities 💪 Made in 🇺🇸, they provide security for 🇱🇹 & all NATO, create jobs & boost defense industry. Partnership that will continue to grow 🤝
The Kremlin calls European defence 'aggressive militarisation' & labels support to Ukraine 'warmongering' to hide Russia's own lust for war & imperialistic conquests. #DontBeDeceived, read more on #DisinfoReview euvsd.info/bo0SFhe3
Another night of terror in Ukraine — Russia has unleashed the largest aerial assault since the start of the full-scale invasion. Over 700 drones and missiles devastated Lutsk and other cities, causing destruction not seen since 2022. This is not just war — it is systematic state…
Already the second record-breaking attack in just 9 days this July — 741 drones and rockets tore through the warm summer night in Ukraine, causing death and destruction. A cruel mockery of any efforts toward peace.
russia abducts Ukrainian children and then laughs about it. If self-proclaimed "God-fearing" russia really did care for the kids, they‘d stop destroying their home. #BringKidsBack politico.eu/article/vladim…
Russia’s lies and cruelty know no bounds. Mere moments after a phone call between V. Putin and D. Trump, the Kremlin unleashed the heaviest aerial assault yet — over 550 drones and 11 missiles hammered #Kyiv for seven hours, injuring at least 20 civilians and destroying or…
