Looking back on the lady in the blood-red lake

People are saying that making the Ukraine a candidate for EU membership is a good day for Europe. It sends a ‘very strong signal’ to Putin.

The move has set in motion a long process – potentially taking years – which could bind Ukraine closer to the West 

Candidate status was also granted to Moldova, a small country boarding Ukraine

Officials have said Ukraine will need to implement changes to meet EU rules  

So, as another political move to stop Putin’s murderous horror grinds on as the death count grows, The Society looks back at what ordinary people have been doing to end the situation:

Russian diplomats look out at lake of blood and tears at the Lithuanian embassy

The Society asks, how can we remain neutral in the face of this bloody war. We all need to take an active part in fighting for the lives, the freedoms and democracy of Ukrainian people who are being tortured, raped and murdered by Russians.

A blood-red lake has appeared in front of the Russian embassy in Lithuania.

The ‘protest art’ in Vilnius is a way of graphically pointing to the threat of genocide from the monsters of the Russian military and the horror of Putin’s ambitions.

Lithuanian Olympic swimming Rūta Meilutytė, aged 25, is pictured swimming across the lake dyed which has been dyed with ecological paint.

Rūta said the lake represent the blood of the Ukrainian people murdered by the invading troops in the regime’s war on Ukraine. She was a star of the London 2012 Olympic Games at 15.

She was based in England working with Jon Rudd and coaching staff in Plymouth.

Her swim was called “Swimming Through”, a call for action in support of the Ukrainian people as allegations of war crimes mount and evidence of atrocities is documented for submission to the International Criminal Court in The Hague.
