I can't believe it. Siarhei is here—with me and our children. What we’ve dreamed of for 5 years has finally happened. Tonight, I’m taking the evening off to talk with my husband, to let him see his children again, after so many years. Thank you all for the tremendous support!❤️

As a young reporter in Northern Ireland I twice saw kids squirming on the ground in agony after being shot in the knees by the IRA. The memory still haunts me. Kneecap should be free to sing whatever they want - but why do they choose to celebrate such a vicious form of torture?

This all day long

🎾From one of the greatest upsets at Wimbledon … to the trenches of Ukraine. Sergiy Stakhovsky beat Roger Federer in 2013. Now he fights in Ukraine’s special forces. And maybe … he should be the next ambassador to the U.S. 🇺🇸🇺🇦 Here’s his story 🧵⤵️

It was a moment of unbelievable hope – three women uniting political forces to challenge the dictator in Belarus 5 years ago 🤍❤️🤍 We still carry that energy today, fighting for a bright future for our country, for the freedom of Maryia Kalasnikava and all political prisoners.

Five years ago today, we held a press conference in Minsk to declare our unity against the regime. It was a turning point for Belarus. We won the election, but the dictator stole our victory. Belarusians will not be denied their rights. Our fight for freedom lives on.

💔 Marfa Rabkova has been unjustly imprisoned in Belarus for 4 years & 10 months. This courageous young woman coordinated Viasna’s volunteer service, organised people to monitor elections, and documented torture. For this, she received nearly 15 years in prison. While behind

Today, journalist Ihar Illiash is spending his birthday as a political prisoner — jailed simply for doing his job. His wife, journalist Katsiaryna Bakhvalava, is also behind bars. They are two of 38 media workers imprisoned in Belarus. This is how repression breaks families.

Shocked to see that RTÉ News uses a map with Crimea not being a part of Ukraine in the video accompanying article about 🇷🇺 shadow fleet rte.ie/news/primetime… We believe that this is an honest mistake that will be fixed promptly. Jackie Fox

It is my son’s 45th birthday today. Another birthday he has not enjoyed with his family because of an indiscriminate IRA bomb. Tim has lived on through the charity and it’s peace building work and so his life has served 000’s of others. God bless you my son

They planted a bomb outside Boots in Warrington the day before Mother’s Day and murdered Tim Parry, 12, and Johnathan Ball who was just three. Always remember this next time some plastic radical on here romanticises the IRA.

Wow, one of #aras25 candidates was revealed as having employed a convicted terrorist on her staff and for circumventing counter-terrorism police by sneaking them into government buildings for six months. And that is not the candidate who has withdrawn from the race.

Jim Gavin's done. and nothing more needs to be said. However, I reckon allowing a gun toting terrorist free rein in Leinster House is a much greater insult to the people of this country than a landlord owing a tenant some money.

This visit had no public interest. In fact the opposite was the case. Visiting the Assad regime after he used chemical weapons was lending legitimacy to a tyrant.

The new British ambassador speaks Irish with considerable ease...

Exactly

I promised to deliver 1 800 000 pieces of large-caliber ammunition to Ukraine's defenders this year. I am glad to confirm that we have fulfilled this goal today.

In just 4 years, he's lost all influence in Syria and Venezuela, with Iran to follow. Had over a million Russians killed or wounded in idiotic assaults that achieved nothing and brought the economy on the brink of implosion. He's no cunning strategist, he's just a murderer.

The U.S. didn't back down and now Russia is once again humiliated on the world stage. If policymakers realized that Russia backs down when met with actual resistance, the world would be a better place.

Assad - gone Maduro - gone Ayatollah regime - soon Tankers - seized and destroyed Refineries - smashed Black Sea Fleet - eviscerated putin's weakness has been exposed brutally. Europe, seize those assets. Seize those tankers. Help Ukraine finish the job. Don't fear putin.
