Ukraine had no reason to harm him; his illegal trading in temporarily occupied Crimea was small fry and he was of course opposed to the illegal and unprovoked invasion.
Would California need Washington's consent to secede, or would a referendum with 51% voting "Yes - separate" be enough? Or could NYC become part of Canada as long as enough people voted "Yes - separate"?
Important stuff is happening in the world and you're deep into petty bickering. Don't be hopeless, guys.
NATO summit ended with some big announcements. Ukraine will receive additional 70 billion in military aid (on top of 90 billion from the EU) and support is assured until 2027 at least. Novichoc despair! Your country will help Ukraine to keep fighting Russia and destroying its oil and gas industry. Trump also promised Ukraine a license to produce missiles for the Patriot AA systems (unlikely to happen in the short run, Germans have been building their factory since 2024 and it still didn't start operations) and more importantly, supported the deep strikes campaign. So it looks like Orange Man's friendship with Putin has ended and now Zelensky is his new friend.
Despite Poland's recent conflict with Ukraine over our common history, I'm very happy about this development. The brighter Russia burns, the better for the West. Also, I like how European allies are united in support for Ukraine. As for Trump's 180 degree turn on the issue it is a nice thing to see, but I doubt it will last.
Your country will help Ukraine to keep fighting Russia
"My country" has no good reason to fight Russia. Anyone claiming that Russia is our enemy is a moron or part of the MICC.
Considering how it became independent, my country has no right to even criticize Russia, Crimea, and Donbas for the way these three became one. At least they had the decency to have their referenda.
The colonies didn't bother...and they shouldn't have. When you have guns, you don't need a referendum.
The brighter Russia burns, the better for the West
There is no West. There is the US and a bunch of parasites, aka European NATO members - our allies who gave the US the middle finger when we decided to test them.
I don't know how the average American feels. I know how I do: If Russia were planning to drop a dozen nukes on Italy and my 20 bucks could stop it, I would keep my 20 bucks.
As for Trump's 180 degree turn
Trump knew from the very beginning that Russia is not our enemy. Our real enemy is the internal rot, woke morons, commies, Antifa, brainless "revolutionaries", budget deficits, debt, and the millions of illegal scum - not Russia, China, or even North Korea.
Memo to North Korea: I want to thank you for getting them nukes and, thus, keeping DC warmongers from trying to liberate your country again.
Anyone claiming that Russia is our enemy is a moron
If you are talking about The USA now, it is you that is the moron....Wake up Rich! Your hatred of Europe has consumed you so much that it is eating you up!
You really want to cosy up to Russia,China and North Korea?
....First, Russian battlefield costs continue to mount, with as many as 450,000 battlefield deaths and 1.4 million casualties between February 2022 and June 2026. These rates are astounding. Russian fatalities in Ukraine are more than four times greater than all U.S. fatalities in all wars combined since World War II, and more than nine times greater than all Soviet and Russian fatalities in all wars combined since World War II....
The hopeless have no hope of being anything else.....
In other news, the US has apparently acknowledged helping Ukraine target russian oil infrastructure... a far cry from the Biden administration hmmed in by Jake "the big chicken" Sullivan's fear of 'escalation' and Biden wanting to protect his crooked pro-russian son.... (people tend to forget the "Ukrainian" company he worked for was a kremlin puppet organization).
And.... the Trump administration is the first to tacitly admit that no, putin is not the problem, russia in it's current form is unreformable and incapable of acting like a normal country and will continue to try to attack Ukrainian civilians for the foreseeable future... no matter the cost.
Two fascists from Poland have been charged over an incident where they hassled a Ukrainian woman who runs a business providing services to other Ukrainians.
One had also been charged earlier this year with espionage on behalf of r*SSia.
We shouldn't underestimate how r*SSian spooks try to penetrate society in the free world and how they take advantage of lowlifes.
a far cry from the Biden administration hmmed in by Jake "the big chicken" Sullivan's..
Let's not exaggerate. The Biden government has been incomparable more supportive to the Ukrainians than Trump has been. In fact, if it weren't for the sharing of intelligence (which Trump has stopped at times) one would be hard-pressed to call Trump supportive of Ukraine at all.
Trump "allowing" deep-strikes at Russian territory doesn't even remotely make up for cutting all aid to Ukraine, trying to strong-arm Ukraine into surrendering to Russian demands, trying to normalize relations with Russia and starting (amd losing) a war with Iran that has dried up global the supply of Patriot missiles.
Worth mentioning that the individual hiding behind the name "Przemysław G" is a former Konfa candidate called Przemysław Grzegorek and he comes from Poznan.
the individual hiding behind the name "Przemysław G"
Not "hiding" exactly, Polish media can't publish his last name... IINM the other hoodlum was a former WOT (terytorials) already held once for spying for russia...
Nawrocki's escalation against Ukraine continues to bear fruit!
There will still be hard work to be done. To ensure that r*SSia is demilitarised and not in a position to do this again.
More missiles in Kyiv last night, between about 0330 and 0500. The first one was a big one which sounded like it hit a target somewhere in the north west of the city. Unusually it hit without any sort of alarm, then there were bangs (louder than normal) after the alarm.
All praise to the emergency services people who were putting out fires and rescuing civilians while ar risk of a 'double tap, attack. No matter what Putler and r*SSia throw at them, they are never defeated.
And meanwhile, 65% of r*SSian refineries are destroyed, most r*SSian regions have very strict petrol rationing, and Putler is begging for petroleum from India, petrol that they'd already sold them and shipped there!
