On banning Russian energy products, Andriy Kobolyev: “Putin thinks Russia’s ability to supply gas is something which makes West vulnerable…The West needs to show Putin that his assumption is completely wrong. The only way to do so is to use full scale embargo on oil.” #AMRstaff

A particular moment in the history of the state system: a leading member of the United Nations (P5) is threatening another member of the United Nations with extinction.

Only 2'700 fans in Lausanne today. Against leader FCZ. With a huge away crowd. The INEOS project with Lausanne has hit rock bottom. Changing the club logo and firing Contini was the beginning of the end. Relegation is well deserved. What a mess #Lausanne #lausannesport

The IMF is ridiculously pro-Russian. It issues a "Statement on the Economic Impact of War in Ukraine" not criticizing Russia with a word. Russia is presented as a poor victim of international sanctions. Really?! imf.org/en/News/Articles/202…

My wife and I visited this young man back in 2010 at Children’s Hospital LA. Today I ran into his parents in our hotel lobby in Charlotte. His name is Chris Hegardt and he’s a rookie midfielder for @CharlotteFC. I gave him a jersey once, hopefully he will give me his tomorrow!

Finally, an interviewee asked me to share video of his friend’s daughter, age 3, in a bomb shelter, dribbling football up and down. Innocence amid barbarity. Beyond the dictator, oligarchs, banks and bombs…the senseless victims. Full report @TheAthleticUK theathletic.com/3156195/2022…

Today the EU imported natural gas worth almost €700mn from Russia. €700mn in one day. [The 2700 Strela missiles Germany decided to give to Ukraine are probably worth about 10% of that]

Russian embassy in #Vilnius is getting a new address – Ukrainian heroes St. 2 👏 Earlier this week the mayor of Vilnius helped create a piece of art on the same street opposite to the embassy, which says ‘Putin the Hague is waiting for you’ #StandWithUkraine #Ukraine 📸S. Žiūra
