The view from Kyiv after President Trump made a deal with the Kremlin to release Russian diesel into global energy markets. When President Zelensky criticised that deal, Trump snapped back saying Ukraine needs a new leader.

Олександр Мережко @ChairOlek Oct 11

It's morally wrong to do diesel deals that fuel the Russian war machine that kills Ukrainians.

It's also morally wrong to call for @ZelenskyyUa to stand down because he defends Ukraine.

The view from Kyiv as America’s key mediators visit the capital for the first time.

Олександр Мережко @ChairOlek Sep 7

They came, they saw ...

@SteveWitkoff & @jaredkushner felt the reality of Russia's brutal war of aggression in Kyiv.

We trust they'll carry our message to @realDonaldTrump:

The world map you've known all your life is wrong! Nearly every country at the UN voted to adopt a new map that shows a more accurate size of Africa after ~500 years of "symbolic minimization."

Only the US voted against it.

I explained why this is important on CNN

Clear and direct analysis from what @ChrisSabatini describes as a “con” in the form of a Trump deal for Venezuela’s oil reserves.
