H&M toe-ring sandals are this summer's minimalist French-girl shoe

Toe-ring sandals from H&M feature a minimalist toe strap that adds a subtle, jewellery-like effect without overwhelming the look. Unlike strappy Roman sandals, they don't wrap the foot and don't visually shorten the legs. They work best in neutral colours — black, white, brown, gold or caramel beige — and pair easily with linen trousers, midi dresses, shorts or long skirts.

Are toe-ring sandals a better summer choice than classic flip-flops?

Historian: Ukraine Defends UPA Because It Underpins Its Independence Narrative

Prof. Piotr M. Majewski, speaking to Interia, explains why Ukraine glorifies the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA) — an organisation Poland holds responsible for the Volhynia massacres and regards as a genocide. According to the historian, Ukraine's stance stems from the need to build an independence narrative rather than ignorance of the crimes. The issue remains one of the primary sources of tension in Polish-Ukrainian relations.

Should Poland condition its support for Ukraine on a reckoning with UPA crimes?
