  1. Egypt is the third largest recipient of American military aid in the world. I imagine we might've pressed on them in that regard when we found out they were considering providing artillery ammunition to Russia.
  2. Twitter's recent change makes longer tweets less obvious and accessible on Surly, so some of you might've missed the full text of this tweet: This will be a case study in international relations for years to come. A few days ago, US Treasury sanctioned a Russian-controlled bank (@IIB_Press) that Hungarian PM Viktor Orbán personally invited to relocate to Budapest. Subsequently, news broke about a possible next round of US sanctions - now directly targeting Orbán's circles. Orbán's reaction? First, after spending years of defending it, he immediately threw the Russian-led bank under the bus. Then, after months of increasingly anti-American rhetorics, he suddenly realised that Hungary and the US are strong allies and share the same fundamental beliefs! Well, this is a good reminder of the power of US sanctions, the dominance of US dollar in international finance - and how carrots and sticks work in diplomacy.
  3. Good use of media as usual. The ISW folks said that Russian soldiers are extremely worried about the upcoming offensive. Videos like this, and others we've seen, can help instill further fear
  4. More thorough report on her. Who could've guessed that she's also not actually giving away any of the money people are giving her? If her ex husband speaks out, this story has the potential to be epic
  5. Okay let's stop now that I sent all my guys to the slaughter 🤔 :
  6. A blurred image of a 2 year old boy being carried after the Russian strike on Sloviansk. Apparently Twitter doesn't allow embedding of the tweet below for some reason. 'Kind' Russian orthodox priest suggests Russian orcs to shoot Ukrainians first, if they see any threat of them (incl. from civilians). Russian orthodox church is evil, accomplices of war criminal Putin. https://twitter.com/WarForDemocracy/status/1646974258080538626?s=20
  7. The guy has had this access since he was 19.
  8. Popular "Russian" podcast host who claims to live in the Donbas is not Russian and lives in America. They found an old YouTube video of her with a regular American accent.
