Summary
Days before the third anniversary of Russia’s invasion, Ukrainians find unity threatened not just by Russia but also shifting U.S. support.
Donald Trump’s false labeling of President Volodymyr Zelenskyy as a “dictator” has provoked fierce backlash, even from Zelenskyy’s critics, who now rally around him.
With ongoing Russian attacks and Ukrainian forces stretched thin, Trump’s suggestion of a swift end to hostilities raises fears of concessions favoring Russia.
Officials argue that elections amid war would undermine Ukraine’s sovereignty. Many vow to continue resisting, regardless of major foreign policy changes.
Slava Ukraini from America. Fuck Trump.
There is a similar thing happening with Trudeau in Canada (with lower stakes perhaps). His popularity in 2024 was abysmal, but Trump being elected and coming after him as revived his legacy.
Fuck Trump, fuck Putin. We stand with Ukraine.
Does a country need extra unity at war time. And if they did do they get from external sources???
American citizens are with you even if our traitorous politicians aren’t
Ukrainian friends, as an American I’m sorry this has happened, sorry both for my country and for yours. It may be a small consolation as our new regime withdraws aid, but remember that most Americans are still on your side as we have been throughout the war.
Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦 !
,slava ukraini?
That’s a Nazi slogan.
In the age if trump we cannot afford to be associated with a Nazi scum. Fu and fuck UkraineIf you’re being ironic somehow I don’t think your joke landed
I’m worried that this will soon lead to a US invasion into Ukraine, using Russian talking points. The military is already beheaded to avoid any opposition
How many countries can this guy invade at a time? Greenland, Canada, Panama, South Africa, Ukraine… the list is so long I’m sure I’m missing somebody.
Wait, South Africa? Did I miss something? I know about all the other ones, but what is his beef with SA? Did Musk complain about something?
Invasion? Only uninvited like the ruskies are doing an Invasion.
Besides, peace keepers on Ukrainian non-Russian borders like Belarus would free up Ukrainian units.
If Trump’s incompetence in executing Vlad’s grand vision saves Ukraine, and his chaotic bumbling at home collapses our government in such spectacular fashion that we look more like modern Europe in a decade, I will obviously be happy about it but I will also be so annoyed.
He would not be the Trump we deserve, he would be the Forrest Magoo that we need.
Looking more like modern Europe means you’re going to have to fight, maybe even physically fight, the rather distressingly large population of very rascal right wingers your country has.
If your government collapses and it’s not you who’ll stick your neck out for it to be remade in a different way, then there’ll be someone who comes along and remakes it in an even worse way.

Pre-2014 borders, correct?
And what reputable source do you have to suggest that “almost half” of all arms that the US sent lined the “pockets of the leader class”?
so those running away to avoid conscription are coming back? /s
you might even find fucked up news like russian and ukrainian ganging up together and doing illegal online scamming, while based in Phuket region.
in reality, it’s no so black and white. and online “reaction” are never representing on the ground situation.
Out of all the conflicts in the world, Ukraine is the simplest, most black and white one there is. It’s one country invading another, and quite openly stating they want the other country to do as they say, or else.
Ukraine didn’t attack Russia. There are no Ukrainian terrorist cells bombing places within Russian borders. There are none of the things in this conflict that wouid make it complicated.
It’s one country invading another.
So ask yourself; do you condone unprovoked invasions?
and online “reaction” are never representing on the ground situation.
Unironically saying this as online reaction such as this, absent of any evidence or being on the ground themselves.
Fleeing from conscription is common across all wars, no matter how just. Russia has massive problems with people fleeing. Anyways, that’s not really what the article was discussing.
It actually is pretty black-and-white in terms of who is fighting a just war, and who is fighting a war more akin to Hitler’s invasion of Poland.
Fuck ukraine
You’re such an edgelord!
Why?
Unfair Fairy!
Also fuck Putin and fuck Trump. I’m an American, and I look forward to taking a shit on Trump’s grave.
Good! Keep the truth alive Ukraine!
I dunno about that.
I wouldn’t be more willing to die in a losing war just because donald trump said zelensky was bad or something.
Seems like this is just propaganda to convince useful idiots that Ukraine isn’t currently getting routed and cover-up their massive desertion and recruitment problems.
This is the reality of war, everyone. If you were “gung-ho” about Ukraine decimating the incompetent Russians, you may have fallen for propaganda.
Hopefully you can learn from it in the future so you can recognize it when you see it again.
And yet Russia isn’t exactly winning either. A smaller country is putting a much bigger country, with a supposedly much bigger, better equipped military, into a back-and-forth stale-mate that has lasted well over a year.
Yes, there is a lot of gung-ho propaganda out there. But if it’s truly completely wrong… Why wasn’t Ukraine conquered already well before the first aid from allies arrived?
That honestly doesn’t matter. A loss is a loss.
They can pat themselves on the back for how they killed a bunch of Russians and Russians killed a bunch of them. At the end of the day, when that Russian flag goes up over Kiev, it will have a much more lasting impact than the defense Ukranians put up.
I should be clear, I don’t want the Russians to win. It just seems inevitable given the circumstances. We should start learning from their mistakes instead of trying to cover them up.
The 3 day special operation is now on the verge of year 3, also a country that has 3 times your population, and was considered the second most powerful army on the planet, was halted? Talk about falling for propaganda.
I don’t know any country that runs an election in wartime, on top of the thought that Russia could easily manipulate those elections from outside to further destabilize the country.
America had elections in 1944. It has no exception in its Constitution for war.
Besides Pearl Harbour, was American soil ever invaded?
Pretty sure The Netherlands didn’t hold elections in that time. Pretty sure England didn’t hold elections either. Or Poland…
I’d argue there’s a big difference between being at war somewhere and your country being currently invaded and your country fighting survival.
Murica is always at war somewhere.
Isn’t it pretty standard to postpone elections in wartime?
Not really in the course of history. A lot of countries had no elections that could have been postponed.
Also, yes.
But the US had elections during WW2 and they where in exact same position as Ukraine is now!
Were they? Wich part of the US was ocupied exaclty? Apart from some atols in the middle of nowhere?
I’m 99. 9% confident they were being sarcastic.
fuck russia. fuck the american people as they had a vote.
American here. Fuck the people who voted for Trump, didn’t vote at all, and anyone involved in the huge spike of voter suppression. We were sold out through misinformation and inference.
