       We are repeating the errors that caused catastrophes in the past.Appeasement won't work; business as usual won't work; there can't be any deals with dictators. Democracies must stand united against those who deny freedom. Shaking the bloody hands of dictators will only give them a sense of impunity to continue their crimes of torture and murder.This is one of a thousand reasons - no more restrictions on Western weapons. Ukraine must be able to strike back.Sexual violence against Ukrainian men has become the ‘norm’ for the Russian military - CNNUkrainian women and men in the occupied territories and in captivity are regularly beaten, raped and electrocuted by the Russian military. The publication states that torture has become the norm. At the same time, victims who have managed to return to Ukraine declare that the Russian military ‘openly amuses itself’ in this way.#LetUkraineStrikeBack #EU #Ukraine #ArmUkraineNow

       Experts document crimes against humanity committed by Russian forces in UkraineFor days after, Shapovalenko said he was repeatedly electrocuted in his genital area, threatened with being raped with a glass bottle, and was even made to believe he could be sterilized.“They seemed to have a fetish for genitalia. Sometimes the door would open, and they would say: ‘We’re going to take out our batons and we’re going to rape everyone here,’” the 39-year-old farm manager told CNN.https://www.cnn.com/2024/05/30/europe/russia-sexual-violence-occupied-ukraine-intl-cmd/index.html#arrestputin #warcrimes #RussiaIsATerroristState #StandWithUkraine #Ukraine

       @skykiss Agreed.For those who aren't following the history reference: it's like the 1930's in Europe. The general policy of many powers was appeasement. This allowed Hitler to invade quite a number of countries. It wasn't until the invasion of Poland that the world finally decided that maybe something should be done.Given Georgia, Chechnya and others, Ukraine is this centuries Poland and it's well past time we properly supported them.
