Ukraine is Europe!
We stand by Ukraine.
We will step up our support to Ukraine so that they can continue to fight back the agressor.
Today, it became clear that the free world needs a new leader. It’s up to us, Europeans, to take this challenge.

Ukraine is not alone.
Germany together with our European allies stands united alongside #Ukraine - and against the Russian aggression. Ukraine can build on unwavering support from Germany, Europe and beyond. Their defence of democracy & their quest for peace & security is ours.

"Bluesky has learned from its predecessors, starting out invite only & growing slowly: it has strong social norms, a culture of blocking rather than feeding attention-seeking trolls, & features that nudge users away from aggressive “quote tweet” pile-ons."
