Does the end of the war in Ukraine mean the end of the threat from Russia? President Trump is considering convening a trilateral meeting with Putin and Zelensky, which could influence the course of the conflict. However, even if an agreement is reached, the threat of Russian imperialism will not disappear for Poland.

Today in Labor History August 28, 1921: The Soviet Red Army dissolved the stateless Anarchist Free Territory, after driving the Black Army out of Ukraine. The anarchist rebel leader, Nester Makhno, barely escaped, and with serious injuries. The Free Territory within Ukraine, also known as Makhnovia (after Nestor Makhno), lasted from 1918 to 1921. It was a stateless, anarchist society that was defended by Makhno’s Revolutionary Insurrectionary Army (AKA the Black Army). Roughly 7 million people lived in the area. The peasants who lived there refused to pay rent to the landowners and seized the estates and livestock of the church, state and private landowners, setting up local committees to manage them and share them among the various villages and communes of the Free State.

Revealed: US Vice President #JDVance called comander-in-chief of of the Ukrainian Armed Forces Valeriy #Zaluzhny to discuss “potential leadership changes” after Oval Office meeting of February 2025.

Zaluzhny refused to talk, instead immediately called Zelensky to inform what Vance was planning.

So. In other words, #US leadership was directly involved in trying to arrange a #coup in #Ukraine. In February this year. This is the state of matters.

In the overnight attacks on #Kyiv on Thurs, fires & falling debris were reported in at least 23 locations around the city, & missiles & drones could still be heard flying overhead at dawn.

#war#WarCrimes#StandWithUkraine

In all, ofcls said, #Russia launched 598 drones & 31 missiles in the overnight strikes on #Kyiv & other cities, & Ukrainian defenses shot down 563 drones & 26 missiles.
President #Zelensky of #Ukraine said that the Russian bombardment was the Kremlin’s answer to the recent diplomatic attempts to halt the fighting.
“Russia chooses ballistics instead of the negotiating table. It chooses to continue killing instead of ending the war. And this means that Russia still does not fear the consequences.”

An hourslong barrage of Russian missiles & drones killed at least 14 people in #Ukraine’s capital, including 3 children, early Thurs. The attack, which they said also injured at least 45, was the largest on Kyiv since #Trump’s meeting with #Putin of #Russia nearly 2 weeks ago.

A 5-story apartment building was destroyed & other homes were damaged. A missile also hit a shopping mall in central #Kyiv & a #EU mission building was damaged.
