Privoz market is a cultural icon and one of the biggest markets in Europe of its kind. I used to go every day in Odesa. It’s amazing & beautiful. russian hit is last night. They are systematically wiping out some of Europes most treasured cultural landmarks. Utterly…
Also a reminder that Ukraine, unlike Russia, is a democracy with a strong civil society, despite all its problems. No such protests would be allowed for a second in Moscow.
Large protest in Kyiv tonight, the first signs of public dissent against Zelenskyy’s government since the full scale invasion, as demonstrators rally against the passing of a bill stripping anti-corruption bodies of their powers
Words can’t describe how evil Elon Musk is for shutting off Starlink and potentially killing thousands of Ukrainians fighting for their survival. He’s a power mad scumbag
Missing a cowboy, but otherwise a perfect summer Saturday. 🤠
My little urban garden is AMAZING this year. I am so blessed. I truly believe it’s good for people to tend to living things. To spend time with nature—dirt under your nails, face in the sun—is like talking to God. And it gives enough to share in return. Start a garden!

Even the German Nazis didn’t dare to bomb and destroy Ukrainian historical buildings. The Russians are purposefully destroying all of the most valuable Ukrainian historical buildings — some of them hundreds or even thousands of years old.
Terrorist state russia aims to steal Ukraine's future by destroying our national identity, language, culture, and literature.

People keep asking why I don’t continually cover the protests in Ukraine & the main reason is that this is internal politics & inappropriate for foreign journalists to interfere and speculate on what Ukrainians want from their own country. I’m also filming & the Donbas situation…
Apocalyptic scenes in Kharkiv as russia heavily bombs the second largest city in Ukraine. 1.4 million people live here - it’s a major European cosmopolitan city. It’s a war crime. russia should be viewed as an official terrorist state. All embassies shut down, all visas revoked.
If Ukrainians don’t like something, they protest, just like in Maidan and just like today. Because it’s a democratic country that loves freedom. Remember that 🫡
Ukrainians organizing massive protests with 3 hour notice and cardboard from a local postal service on a Tuesday, I really love this country
It's a bit more complicated than that. On one hand, having a government fully in control of anti-corruption investigation agencies is obviously not good. Don't think that needs an explanation. On the other, if NABO and SAP are highly questionable orgs themselves... Then how the…
⚡️🤬 The Ukrainian Parliament has passed draft law #12414 – a move widely seen as dismantling the country’s anti-corruption institutions
Democracy in action. Even during war. Read that again. Thank you, Ukraine.
