Painful for #Russia: #Chinas's Huawei announced it will not enter new contracts in Russia due to sanctions. Now, #Ericsson suspends its business as well. #Huawei and Ericsson are Russia's most important providers of mobile communications infrastructure. https://t.co/2YVozLQWGS https://t.co/I7Lj32yjl6

"Peace" with Putin means Russia being free to slaughter civilians in occupied Ukraine and ethnically cleanse their new territories. This is what the history of Europe teaches us. And yet this fool lectures Eastern Europeans on "history" and how to deal with Russian fascism. https://t.co/hc41GzFYHa

I felt the Bulgarian MPs frustration.

Some Western Europeans (or West in general) honestly need to shut the f*ck up in telling Eastern Europeans what to do, how to deal with Russia and stop acting like they know better than them on the topic of Russia, these countries know the dangers of Russia while we've sat in our safety far from Russia's influence.

Also links into this brilliant thread.

We need to talk about #Westplaining.
It’s a term coined by the Eastern European left to describe a tendency of certain Western leftists to ascribe everything that happens east of Germany to Western policy.

Lol last time a west European MP had a say in peace ended up giving territory from Poland to USSR.

They don't seem to get that the people that lived through the bullshit that was the USSR are still alive and remember it well. They do not want to go back to that BS and would fight and die before that were to happen.
