As time passes on; I get happier that I know the existence of FOSS social media (and the fediverse).

      Considering the magnitude of what has happened - a full fledged invasion of a sovereign country - I’m more impressed that this shows no signs or true escalation beyond some bluster from Putin. I just hope it remains contained and is resolved soon. Unfortunately, that’s going to be cold comfort to the people whose lives are now bombed out apartment buildings.

          I read through that transcript. There’s no hint that the US has any role more than helping the democratically elected leaders to come to an agreement on forming a government. And they were apparently working to freeze the Svoboda party, which has been accused of Nazi ties, out of the political process. Meanwhile, they’re now being invaded by a man who hasn’t experienced a free and fair election in what, two decades?
