Demand Russia's Withdrawal from Ukraine or Their Exclusion from the 2024 Olympics
#1. This petition seeks to ban Russia from participating in the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris under the Russian flag, or any other “false flag”.
#2. This petition further seeks to have all major sponsors publicly withdraw support AND all advertising during the games if Russia participates.
#3 if Russia is allowed to participate in these 2024 Olympics this petition encourages all signatories to not view any games. If there are low anticipated viewers due to the global protest, the IOC, and more importantly its sponsors, will be penalized for support of Russia in this aggression.
#4 This petition further seeks for sponsors to shift all sponsorship and advertising spend to ads protesting the illegal Russian invasion and supporting Ukrainian relief causes.
The range in viewership has ranged from 1.4 billion for the 2022 games in China to 3 billion in Japan in 2020. This petition seeks to make the Paris Olympics a success if Russia is banned and a failure if Russia participates.
The International Olympic Committee (IOC) receives $2 billion in advertising from 13 sponsors. At least 9 of the 13 major sponsors have discontinued operating in Russia. The sponsors who have already ceased operations are:
Coca Cola
Visa
Airbnb
Toyota
Panasonic
Intel
GE
Bridgestone
Atos
These 9 sponsors have already proven they protest the Russian invasion. We appeal to these 9 sponsors to pressure the IoC to ban Russia.
Since the full major Russian invasion of Ukraine over 1,000 corporations have withdrawn operations from Russia.
Over 50% of Russian medalists are typically active duty Russian soldiers. It is a crime against humanity to allow Russian soldiers to participate in the Olympics while their comrades continue this aggression in Ukraine.
This protest was created and led by the American University Kyiv (AUK). AUK privudes full scholarships to Spouses and Children of the Fallen Ukrainian Heroes.

🇪🇺 At the summit in Brussels, EU leaders decided to allocate €50 billion to Ukraine for 2024-2027. For this purpose, the Ukraine Facility will be created.
Ukraine's Foreign Ministry welcomed the decision and expects all legal procedures to be completed in January 2024, after which funding will begin. The money will be used to maintain macroeconomic stability, restore and modernize the state, and accelerate EU integration.
Due to Hungarian Prime Minister Orban's veto, these funds will not be included in the EU budget, but the EU has a backup plan. The 26 member states are expected to provide €1.5 billion to Ukraine starting next year.

Good Morning. Cloudy and supposed to rain. But we need rain. Temps in the 20s will return Sunday.
The regional court stated that Alexey Navalny “left the Vladimir region”
During the hearing, the court read a certificate dated December 12 from the Federal Penitentiary Service for the Vladimir Region, which states that “Alexey Navalny left PKU IK-6 in the Vladimir Region to a correctional facility located outside the Vladimir Region, in accordance with the verdict of the Moscow City Court that entered into legal force dated August 4, 2023. Navalny’s arrival will be notified within the framework of current legislation.”
The meeting was postponed to December 18 “until the whereabouts of Alexey Anatolyevich Navalny are clarified.” Navalny’s whereabouts have not been known since December 6.
Killed? 🧐
Gee, I guess Ukraine killed a lot of Russians between yesterday and today.

I have a hard time picturing Republicans as fun loving uncles to real living breathing women. The thought that popped into my mind was, "a monkey's uncle".

Today, there is a decision to open negotiations on accession to the EU. This step will be followed by the next ones. This is a massive job – to integrate the state, all the institutions, all the norms into the European Union. But we will do it. Ukraine has repeatedly proved what we are capable of. There will be another victorious decision – the time will come when we will be able to celebrate Ukraine's accession to the EU.
Many people in Ukraine are now in high spirits, and this is important, this is motivation. And I congratulate all of you, each and every one of you, on what has been achieved! Achieved by all of us who, through the unity of Ukraine, are strengthening the unity of the whole of Europe. I would like to especially thank all our boys and girls, all men and women who have fought and are fighting for Ukraine, who are now in combat, who are defending the freedom of Ukraine, who are helping our warriors by treating, training, bringing in weapons, producing weapons. All that we are achieving would not have been possible without the heroic courage of our people, our nation, which inspires the whole world.
No matter what happens, we are working, fighting, and building up the strength of Ukraine. Believe in yourself!
Glory to Ukraine!
Goodnight Resisters. May tomorrow find Iran with another dead Ayatollah.
Most Ukrainian tanks are repaired when damaged. Not abandoned as the Russians.

10 years ago, Ukrainians with the flags of Ukraine and the European Union came out to the Revolution of Dignity to defend our European choice.
655 days ago, on 28 February 2022, the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyi, myself and the Prime Minister signed the application for EU membership. At a time when the enemy was mercilessly bombing our cities, launching a full-scale invasion.
Today, Ukraine is one step closer to full membership in the European Union!
This is a historic decision. And we are paying an extremely high price for this decision.
The Armed Forces of Ukraine, our warriors, prove every day what a victorious struggle for a free future and a free Ukraine is.
For the fact that there will be no russia in Ukraine.
And for Ukraine to be in a free Europe.
I am grateful to our defenders for their daily defence of Ukraine and our choice.
I thank all European leaders for today's unity.
I thank the President of Ukraine for his leadership, the Ukrainian Parliament for its unity and speed, and the Government for its efficiency. I thank everyone who has made and will continue to make efforts for Ukraine's full membership in the EU.
And, of course, I thank the courageous Ukrainian people!
The people whose "truth has never been conquered by anyone".
A united people. An unbreakable people. The victorious people!
