“Don’t shoot!”
Statement by the Yabloko party Chairman, 17.06.2024

Photo from social media
The Yabloko party stands for the immediate conclusion of a ceasefire agreement without preconditions.
Neither the resolution of the summit in Switzerland, nor Vladimir Putin’s statements at the meeting with the leadership of the Foreign Ministry answer the most important question: when people, including civilians, will not be killed anymore.
This means that the bloodshed will continue and there will be new victims.

The Versailles Trap
Grigory Yavlinsky’s web-site, 13.06.2024

However, the Treaty of Versailles only delivered peace to Europe for a brief moment, before setting the wheels in motion for the start of the even more destructive and bloody World War II. Why did this happen and what lessons must we draw today from events that happened more than a century ago?
