    Victoria was a member of our Harvard Ukrainian community when she spent one year in Boston area before the start of the all out war. In war she documented Russian war crimes. Her death is one of such crimes. Her work will continue. The criminals will be punished.

    Putin finally found a guy who believes in the legitimacy of his “referenda” in the occupied territories. This real estate developer knows neither geography, nor culture, nor (recent) history of the places he goes to.

    Yesterday it was Poltava. Today it is Lviv. Russia bombs Ukraine’s historical and cultural centers deep in the rear. Washington worries about Putin’s red lines. Does it have any of its own?

    A Ukrainian MP speaking from inside the Odesa Orthodox Cathedral hit last night by a Russian missile. Ukraine needs weapons to protect its cities and its citizens, and it needs them now. Concerns and condemnations are not enough.
