⚡️On the border between Mykolaiv and Kherson regions there are russian troops which can't retreat because in that case they are threatened with executions, - the Head of the Mykolaiv State Administration Vitaly Kim
They took positions in the villages. They can move neither forward nor back. They won’t talk, but also they cannot leave. I will address the command with a proposal to organize a "green corridor" for the russians. For those who did not shoot, did not commit a crime against civilians. It will not apply to artillerymen, or missile launchers. They can either run or stay to die. For others, we will organize a hotline for instructions," he said.

🇺🇦 Dmytro Kuleba for Financial Times: : “the EU must grant Ukraine membership now”
Tomorrow, March 11, there will be a crucial moment for the future of Ukraine and the future of the whole of Europe. The heads of state will discuss Ukraine's request for accelerated accession to the European Union.
▪️Our membership would significantly strengthen the EU. Today, Ukraine is a powerful force for good, a brave and intelligent nation that will make a major contribution to the political, economic, cultural and social strength of the EU after this war. It will be a matter of prestige and power for the EU to have a country like Ukraine among them.
▪️Today Ukrainians not only defend their land, but also defend their values. We defend the vision of a united, free and peaceful Europe. We reject the vision of Europe as a battlefield divided into spheres of influence as in the Cold War.
▪️This is clearly not a classic process of joining the EU, which usually takes years and focuses on technical and economic details. But the decision to make Ukraine a member of the EU right now can be a decisive victory for Europe and all its countries, all its leaders. Having made such a decision, Europeans will be proud of it forever - proud of being on the right side of history and making a morally right choice.
It is time to make historic decisions. We have made one. EU leaders, now it is your turn to make history.
