Cat on outdoor street side table of books in Mecidiyeköy. Maybe thinking about reading Turkish translation of Maeve Binchy later!

🇬🇪Why is Georgian Dream surviving despite mass protests, backlash, and international condemnation? The answer isn’t repression alone. It’s money. 🧵A thread on how Bidzina Ivanishvili’s fortune and Russian inflows saved his regime - and why it’s still may crack. 1/15

Iran’s new leaders are younger, but they are just as religiously devout—and far more brazen than were their older predecessors assassinated in the opening days of the war. ow.ly/rkFW30sP3hS

Russia has not changed its goal: drag Ukraine into a new Russian Empire. Moscow has demanded that Ukraine cede territory it already holds and the remainder of Donetsk, which it has been unable to conquer. Zelensky will never do so. Meanwhile, meetings will continue because…

Angry rooster. He looks very peaceful and innocent here, but he had just sneaked up behind me and pecked my legs. I’ve seen him before while walking from Mecidiyeköy to Levent uphill via the Kuştepe. Don’t know he was angry with me that day! (Middle of June)

I’m from Donbas. I remember Ukrainian songs in school. I remember books, not bunkers. Don’t tell me we were “always russian.” I was there. We lived. Then russians invaded.

4 Tu-95MS launched cruise missiles over Ukraine 7 minutes ago. By the way, these are the planes that Ukraine gave to Russia in exchange for security guarantees from the US, Russia and the UK.

Unlike Trump, I have had dinner in DC numerous times in many places over the last 23 years. Pizza, burgers, Georgian food, Ukrainian food, tapas, Chinese, whatever. Never felt unsafe once. The dude is such a liar, and so goddamn stupid.

Mississippi, with one of the worst crime rates in the US, is sending national guard troops to DC (that Trump says he already fixed) for purely political purposes. Stop using our military as props. It’s gross.
