Russia wants the world to forget who started the war. On 24 February 2022, Putin ordered a full-scale invasion of Ukraine. The invasion was not preceded by any Ukrainian attack on Russian territory. The war was not ‘forced upon’ Russia. Russia chose to start it.

I recall we had a period of time where the response of Starmer and Cooper to concerns about these groups was ‘I like flags’
Leaders of flag-raising group Raise the Colours Oxfordshire placed trackers on highway workers’ cars to find out their home addresses, the High Court has heard. RTC then attempted to intimidate the highway staff into no longer removing flags by repeating their addresses to them.
"This is how the French welcomed the Ukrainian rescuers who arrived in France to help fight wildfires. Seventy rescuers and 15 specialized vehicles were sent from Ukraine to France. Ukraine represents the largest foreign team."
THE WORLD MUST SEE THESE WAR CRIMES. In Kherson, Russian terrorists hunted a fruit and vegetable seller at a local market with an FPV drone. The Russian operator deliberately tried to hit the 52-year-old civilian. He survived the explosion, but suffered shrapnel wounds and a concussion.
