Online disinformation and interference poses a real threat to democracy. I have written to the UK Security Minister to ask that these serious allegations are fully investigated and the Scottish Government informed of any outcomes.

Many congratulations to @NikolPashinyan and best wishes to Armenia as it looks to strengthen its independence and deepen cooperation with democratic Europe
I congratulate Armenia on holding democratic and free elections, and @NikolPashinyan on his victory. This is also a victory for Armenia’s sovereignty, your independence, and your right to live the way you choose. We wish you success.
Ukraine is ready to expand our cooperation, and now is precisely the time for the European Union to provide real support to Armenia and do everything necessary to ensure that people feel their lives are better thanks to their relationship with Europe. This is a test for the European Union. It is important not to lose time or miss opportunities.

Scotland needs full power over our energy policy. We have huge renewables resource, part of the solution to Europe’s energy security needs. But projects in Scotland face punitive charges compared to those elsewhere in the UK - scotsman.com/news/politics/t…

Zelensky arrived, the crowd applauded. And then this happened:
🇺🇸 veteran: You’re a saviour of the people
Zelensky: No, no, you saved Europe
🇺🇸 veteran: My hero
Zelensky: No, you are our hero

The Ukrainian decision to double down on drone warfare, from the battlefield, to mid range and long range strike, and not to draft all of its young men to make infantry, will be seen by historians as one of the most important decisions in 19th-21st century warfare.

📸 Great to be out in Arbroath today with the First Minister, meeting SNP activists and visiting local businesses including E&O Fish and The Bellrock Restaurant.
🏴 On Thursday 18 June, vote SNP for an MP who will stand up for Arbroath and Broughty Ferry — and who will always be on Scotland’s side.

A majority in the Scottish Parliament has just backed our call to devolve energy powers to Scotland.
We can’t afford being tied to the failed policies at Westminster.
Scotland’s energy should work for Scotland - with the powers we need to help bring people’s bills down.

We are calling on the UK Government to give Scotland full control over its energy.
This will allow Scotland's energy wealth to be used to help Scottish households, communities and businesses.
Watch for more.
