For those who don’t get it, this is a re-enactment (in Zaporizhzhia) of Repin’s famous painting, Zaporizhzhia Cossacks writing (an insulting) letter to the Ottoman Sultan. Except it’s now about Zelensky firing defense minister Fedorov and sparking a wholly unnecessary political https://t.co/iskxqamnfg #Zaporizhzhia #Repin #Zelensky #UA #TR
In Ukraine, there is no cult of personality, and no one is untouchable. If you make a bad decision - like Zelenskyy did by firing Fedorov - you will be criticized and protested relentlessly. Can you imagine this happening in Russia? Neither can I. https://t.co/VjcbOIfDoR #Ukraine #Zelenskyy #Protests #UA #RU
Summary of the mood about Fedorov’s firing across Nato-Europe and Ukraine, as assessed by the unscientific sample of my signal inbox this morning: Pissed. Some confused. Mostly just very, very pissed. #FedorovFiring #NATO #Ukraine #UA #NATO
Firing Mykhailo Fedorov was a big mistake. During his time as Defense Minister, Ukraine started to regain momentum on the battlefield. He delivered real results, and his team modernized key parts of Ukraine's military and even managed to cut Russian forces in occupied #Ukraine #Defense #MykhailoFedorov #UA #RU
Firing Fedorov, one of smartest, most competent and innovative ministers in all of Europe, is one of the dumbest things Zelenskyy has done. Siding with Syrsky is the second dumbest. Europe will continue to support Ze, but far more warily. Fedorov was a symbol of the new tech #Fedorov #Zelenskyy #Europe #EU #UA
Protests are being scheduled across Ukraine tomorrow morning. Zelensky really touched a nerve with this erratic, sudden reshuffle and the unexplained firing of Fedorov. #UkraineProtests #Zelensky #FedorovFiring #UA
Fedorov was widely credited for Ukraine’s turnaround on the battlefield, and for cutting corruption in the military. Firing him after just six months, and with no explanation, is a really bad look for Zelensky. #Ukraine #Corruption #Zelensky #UA
They’re not firing drones anymore. They’re back to firing cruise missiles. I wonder are there any US naval assets in the region… 🇺🇸🇮🇷 #CruiseMissiles #NavalAssets #USMilitary #US #Iran

To the American followers: France is honoring tonight at the Pantheon Marc Bloch one of France's greatest historians and a hero of the French Resistance. In March 1944, he was arrested by the Gestapo in Lyon. He was tortured and, on June 16, 1944, executed by firing squad #MarcBloch #FrenchResistance #History #US #FR
The West has entered the “circular firing squad” phase of decline. Hard to watch, to be honest. 🇺🇸🇪🇺 #Decline #CircularFiringSquad #West #US #EU
WTAF? This is mental (not to mention wrong) if true. Russian, or any, military vessels have no business firing on anyone, especially on civilian boats. Wrong! #WTAF #MilitaryAction #CiviliansFirst #RU
Whether firing 30 ballistic missiles at Israel or downing an American military helicopter, the answer against Iranian regime aggression should be the same: swift, strong and decisive. The Iranians tried to limit Israeli freedom of action against Hezbollah - and failed. They #Iran #Israel #Hezbollah #IL #US #IR #LB
Iran is firing ballistic missiles at Israel. Israeli officials say they will respond. A return to full-scale war in the Middle East may be hours away. #Iran #Israel #MiddleEastWar #IR #IL
