3/3 .@irgarner . If the country in which you were born and raised refused to recognise your only language as official, in education and employment, you'd know *exactly* what 'second class citizen' means. Don't betray your craft. Recognise the truth. — PolitiTweet.org

.@DavidTa69192197 I agree. The same could be said of many other Ukrainians. The key to civilised relations is to deal with the whole person, and to recognise virtues among your opponents and critics wherever you can. Of course there are limits, but even so it is a good rule. — PolitiTweet.org

@MickFlahertyArt Well, disagreement is the stuff of life and the source of much learning. I believe that the adversarial system, full of debate and opposition, is the truest way to proper understanding and wise decision-making. So rejoice. — PolitiTweet.org

.@hiscockrod. You speak truer than you know. The USA plainly regards Ukraine as an important part of its European sphere of influence. If support fades for war, it might well be willing to give up land to retain that influence. See Yalta for precedent. — PolitiTweet.org
Rod Hiscock @HiscockRod
@ClarkeMicah I'm sure the USA would give up land as well.🤔

@curtainsilicon. The mark of a fanatic is that he is unable to see any fault in his chosen side. See how Mr Fink, losing the argument, changes the subject to avoid conceding the indisputable fact that Ukraine is wrongly de-privileging Russian-speakers. ...But...Putin.....Putin! — PolitiTweet.org

'Protected'it may be,.@freebirdsoars, but the clause is extremely vague, and, as we learned in 2014, Ukraine's constitution can be ignored when nationalists want to ignore it. The fact remains that Russian is *not* an official language ina country where almost everyone speaks it. — PolitiTweet.org

1/2 .@siliconcurtain. When exactly did I say that Ukraine attacked Russia? (answer: never, nowhere). The incident you are looking for is when the USA supported the violent overthrow of a non-aligned, legitimate government in Ukraine. Much followed from this. — PolitiTweet.org
