Possible reasons why Magyar wants to retard Ukraine's accession process.
Finally got the Xmas tree up.
ruzzia can try all it wants. but at least some of time the lights will shine on our trees in Ukraine!
You know you are a refugee cat from Pokrovsk, when you have a blanket like this. HIs name is "Vuchko", named after the cute little mascot for the 1984 Winter Olympics in Yugoslavia. From "Vuk" = Wolf, so Vuchko is kind of diminutive name for "wolf". But it's a proper name like "Peter" or "Paul".
Never forget what DOGE & those wealthy degenerates like the Mango-manchild & Elmo did to USAID. They talked about scams & fraud, when in fact, USAID was money well spent to help education here in Ukraine. My wife's uni was displaced 3 times & she gives classes online with her USAID laptop for years.

My interview with Oksana is now live on YouTube. One not to miss, 1st Ukrainian woman to graduate from the UK’s Royal Naval College and now heads to war.
She is nothing short of inspiring 🙏🇺🇦
@scottlucas.bsky.social @ceoretort.com Just an FYI about Hungary and Ukraine's EU accession you discussed on the show. Magyar intends to stall the process. Link to @kyivindependent.com story below.

Also, it is common for a lot of Ukrainian surnames to end in "ko" (e.g. Poroshenko, Gerashchenko, etc etc etc) so I thought this South Slavic (Yugoslav) name, that ended in "ko", for a Ukrainian cat was appropriate. 🐈🐈⬛😺🐾🇺🇦

@wardcarroll.bsky.social I know you are a dog person and congrats to new mother Ingrid. I am a cat person, and this bemusing video demonstrates why Grumman gave the F-14 the absolutely correct codename - "Don't mess with our carrier battle groups, we have Tomcats"! 😺

⚡️Hungarian PM Magyar pushes EU to water down stance on Ukraine accession.
“At my initiative, a clause referring to accelerating accession was removed from the text at the very last moment. It wasn't easy," Hungarian PM Peter Magyar posted on X, after EU leaders finished meeting on June 18.
I noticed something where my wife gives online classes. Her communal staff laptop was provided by #USAID. Her uni was displaced from Donetsk City in 2014 to Pokrovsk, then to west Ukraine. The Russians bombed her uni. My wife's macbook is an old 2011 model. The extra USAID laptop really helps her.
The conclusions of the meeting of EU leaders on June 18 have been watered down, at the insistence of Hungarian Prime Minister Peter Magyar, to reduce the urgency of advancing Ukraine's EU accession pr...
