Would not be suprised if this is an intentional build up of troops with Belarus for additional threat/invasion to Ukraine/Europe. Remember when Trump sulkily chided NATO allies with 'well what will you do in a few months' hinting US will not support them. Slip of tongue?
A visual showing Ukrainian traditional patterns and the text High-Level Meeting of the International Coalition for the return of Ukrainian Children 11.05.2026 Brussels. Included are the flags of the EU, Canada, and Ukraine.
Over 20,000 Ukrainian children have been unlawfully deported. This is a violation of human dignity.
On 11 May, we co-host a high-level meeting with Ukraine and Canada.
Our goal is to trace every child, secure their return, and ensure full accountability ↓

My kind of quiz. Some of it guess work, but at least will learn something interesting each day!
My kind of quiz! I think it has something to do with once wanting to be a Foreign Correspondent for the BBC! Thank you for posting it - definitely one to play each day, to take us off into another world! Think @phyllida.bsky.social will enjoy it too.
Have some allotment greenery to start your day....and cleanse your timeline. Enjoy your day people!
