I was happy to talk again with our great friend & partner in this war of light VS darkness - @Pabriks. Our friends, like us, aren’t afraid of the "power" of 🇷🇺. But we’re confused by the restraint of the West… I thank to 🇱🇻 & all 🇱🇻 people for their political & practical support

19 years later, russia waged war against us. To mark the anniversary of the agreement, today russia launched a new wave of missile attacks against Ukraine.
The reaction of the world was insufficient.

Security formula:
The missile power of the “world's second army” is inversely proportional to the strictness of sanctions compliance multiplied by the strength of Ukrainian air defense.
