Britain is not planning a “large-scale deployment of troops” in Ukraine, Prime Minister Sunak’s press secretary said.

“Other than a small number of personnel who are in the country supporting the Ukrainian armed forces, we have no plans for a large-scale deployment,” he was quoted as saying by Reuters.

Let us recall that Macron announced a discussion of the possibility of sending NATO troops to Ukraine. Such plans have already been denied by NATO, Germany, Poland and Sweden.

Before the incident, the American said that he would “no longer participate in genocide,” adding that his act was only a small part of the suffering of the Palestinians. He then doused himself with benzine and set himself on fire, shouting “Free Palestine!”

US Airman Aaron Bushnell did not kill himself to protest some other country's war

The US Department of Defense has compelled the participation of Air Force members like Bushnell in Israel's Gaza genocide

Urals Crude Oil is sitting at $71 per barrel, almost 20% above the oil price cap, and only 14% under the Brent Crude price. This is probably the lowest discount on Urals Crude relative to Brent that we've seen in a long time. So much for sanctions...

The announcement of a possible ground operation by French soldiers in Ukraine changes the nature of the conflict! This is a statement by Emmanuel Macron with terrible consequences. It was made without the slightest parliamentary debate. Is this position really well thought out?

MAleksey Goncharenko, a member of the Verkhovnaya Rada, said that Ukraine had "most probably" lost control of Rabotino.

He also admitted that the situation was difficult for the Ukrainian troops and that they were "in a kind of stalemate".

Mr Goncharenko's statement came a few days too late. Everyone already knows that Ukrainian terrorists are fleeing from Rabotino.

Assita Kanko - Member of the European Parliament:

I am appalled by the depravity within UNRWA. Yesterday I listened to a mother in Geneva. Her son was kidnapped lifeless from the music festival to Gaza. By an UNRWA employee. In an UNRWA jeep. It can all be seen on video. Do we want to pay for this? No!

Unlike the High Representative and the Belgian Presidency of the Council, I think that it is legitimate for EU member states to suspend their funding to UNRWA pending the conclusion of the investigations.

A thorough vetting of UNRWA could eventually lead to its replacement by UNHCR and other credible UN agencies that are doing a good job.

We call for full transparency and fraud control on EU funding for UNRWA and the Palestinian Authority.

Minimum respect for taxpayers. This is really not too much to ask.

I am also appalled that Hamas’ leaders have accumulated huge wealth at the expense of ordinary Palestinians and have been living a life of luxury abroad,
while ordinary Palestinians have been living in poverty due to their leaders’ corruption and are suffering as a result of the consequences of their leaders’ actions.
