Given Russia’s daily war crimes in Ukraine and sabotage in the EU, we should ban tourist visas for Russian citizens immediately

It's long overdue for Putin to step down. He has held power in Russia since 1999 as prime minister and president. 27 years! Enough is enough

We can't afford to be naive or cling to outdated peacetime ideals. It's not 2006 anymore. In an era of a Russian invasion in Europe, social media, and AI, democracy and free speech must be defended against foreign interference to survive

New article on my substack page: How Trump trapped himself in Ukraine

The families of American soldiers who died because Russia backed the Taliban, Iran, and others must be thrilled to see Trump side with Russia and lift sanctions on Russian diesel. Another huge betrayal!

Striking Russian refineries to strain Russia’s economy is central to Ukraine’s strategy. Ukraine shouldn't compromise that strategy just to trim US gas prices by a few cents for Trump’s midterms, especially as he openly favors Russia

@joniaskola.bsky.socialOct 12, 2026, 10:00 AM

Russian officials really love Aaron Maté. I don’t wonder why

@joniaskola.bsky.socialOct 12, 2026, 9:28 AM

Putin has been in power for 20 YEARS longer than Zelensky

@joniaskola.bsky.socialOct 12, 2026, 8:57 AM

Trump has activated the fifth column to blame Ukraine for the upcoming defeat in the midterms

@joniaskola.bsky.socialOct 12, 2026, 8:01 AM

Europe is slow to move, but when forced, we act. We did far more in 2022 than expected, even if we have slacked recently. If Russia crosses an EU border or tests NATO, we will respond. But we shouldn't wait for that: transfer Russia’s frozen assets to Ukraine already!

@joniaskola.bsky.socialOct 12, 2026, 7:08 AM

Trump and Musk don’t get to choose Ukraine’s president. They can start by asking Putin to step down if they want to interfere somewhere

@joniaskola.bsky.socialOct 12, 2026, 6:37 AM

I hope the US won’t cut Starlink for Ukraine, but the only upside would be forcing Ukraine to end its reliance on it

@joniaskola.bsky.socialOct 11, 2026, 10:07 PM

Massie has always been a Russian asset

@joniaskola.bsky.socialOct 11, 2026, 9:47 PM

People openly demonstrate support for Ukraine, but most of Russia’s supporters refuse to do so. Deep down, they are ashamed to defend an unprovoked imperial war. They know there is no legitimate justification for it. Even Russia’s allies are too ashamed to admit their backing

@joniaskola.bsky.socialOct 11, 2026, 9:12 PM

Most traitorous president in the history of the US

@joniaskola.bsky.socialOct 11, 2026, 8:21 PM

Trump is a pathological liar and a traitor

@joniaskola.bsky.socialOct 11, 2026, 7:44 PM

Trump is an enemy of the West

@joniaskola.bsky.socialOct 11, 2026, 7:15 PM

Trump’s besties

@joniaskola.bsky.socialOct 11, 2026, 6:58 PM

I love this conspiracy theory because it’s a great IQ test. The claim is that Ukraine was about to sign a non-existent deal, but Boris Johnson brought a tiny sum of money and forced them not to sign it. Only an idiot could think that the PM of the UK has that much power

@joniaskola.bsky.socialOct 11, 2026, 6:35 PM

Trump always pressures the victim and never the aggressor
