It seems the Ukrainian technique is to play the heroic victim card and try shame others into conforming to their will.
The thing that has perplexed me since this idiotic war began was the malleability of the West to suddenly accept Ukraine as a country worthy of EU and NATO membership. Zelensky recently trying to shame NATO into giving a date of Ukrainian membership into NATO and the PM's words concerning Ukrainian grain exports are part and parcel of Ukrainian strategy to get what they want.
I only hope the West becomes as indignant as you. Wanting to help Ukraine defend itself and accepting Ukraine as a functional country worthy of membership into Western alliances and unions are two completely different things.
