Had a great time talking with @KyivIndependent's @lapatina_ about Ukraine's drone strikes on Russian oil. We touched on everything from drone swarms to air defense challenges. Can watch here: youtube.com/watch?v=dYU8dL…

Glad to have made it to tonight’s screening of “Uprooted” - an urgent, and very hard to watch, documentary by @KyivIndependent on the abduction & deportation of 🇺🇦 children by Russia. Certain US politicians could do with watching it

Feel very lucky to have had a chance to ask questions to both Zelensky and Zaluzhnyi within a week. Very different press conferences with very different vibes, will share more thoughts later. Happy holiday period everyone.
Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Valerii Zaluzhnyi fielded a question from Kyiv Independent reporter @francisjfarrell about how Ukraine's military campaign will look in 2024, taking into account the insights gained from the experiences of 2023. 📽️: Army TV
Please read this important editorial by The @KyivIndependent: "Why we don’t avoid ‘unpleasant’ stories about #Ukraine" "We would be doing a poor service to our readers... if we filtered out the “bad” stories. In fact, we’d be actively causing harm..." kyivindependent.com/editorial-why-…
Every healthy democracy has fearless journalists helping to hold leaders accountable to their citizens. One of the greatest forms of patriotism that only makes a country stronger. Hats off to @KyivIndependent and all Ukrainian journalists 🗞️🇺🇦
Some people fail to realize that we are not a PR agency, and our only job is to uncover the truth. It's especially ridiculous that those alleged supporters of Ukraine seem to not care about soldiers who risk their lives on a daily basis, their stories, fears, and opinions.…
For those of you on this platform who insist on calling @KyivIndependent “too negative” or even “compromised” because we’re telling a truth you don’t want to hear.
Editorial: Why we don’t avoid ‘unpleasant’ stories about Ukraine Read here: kyivindependent.com/editorial-why-…
Putin's message is crystal clear - Russia won't halt its aggression until Ukraine ceases to exist. Remember this when your leader/MP/candidate calls for rejecting aid to 🇺🇦 or push Kyiv for peace talks with Moscow. If they do, they're either against democracy, stupid, or both.
⚡️ Putin: There will be peace only when Russia achieves its goals. Russia's war against Ukraine will end once Moscow achieves its goals, Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Dec. 14 during his first major news conference since the invasion's start. kyivindependent.com/putin-peace-co…
