  1. Russia started a war with Ukraine. It's not the other way around. What a bunch of idiots live in Russia if they aren't smart enough to figure that out

  2. Where do I fill out an application?

  3. 17 марта 2024 года состоятся президентские выборы. В этот день мы призываем всех прийти на участки и проголосовать против Владимира Путина.

    Сделать это можно, поставив галочки за любого другого кандидата.

    Что еще важнее, мы призываем каждого использовать 100 дней до голосования для агитации против Путина и его власти.

  4. This man, like little man vile Putin, sits very comfortably in his fancy tailored suit, his expensive hair cut, his puppet rhetoric while Russian soldiers are getting killed, maimed, their families to suffer loss and pain. Why do these individuals get shown any respect

  5. The global South ( the whole world excluding Europe and US) know Russia will win this war since the beginning and US is now a sinking ship ( Boarder problem, soaring Inflation, homelessness, gun violence, world expensive medical services e.t.c)

    Sanction on Russia is not working. Because Russia is not isolated, Putin war in Ukraine continue, Russian economy is saved by Chinese market, African nations increases support for Putin, Russia developed mechanism for sanction deviation support by Iraq, North Korea, Venuzula and Cuba, Republican Kongo e.tc. De-dollarazation of US dollars is accelerated globally.

    Russia stand as a symbol of strength. One nation that can face the entire west (NATO).

    Russia and China bring economic development, western countries (EU) bring neo-colonization while US under the umbrella of NATO bring war and destruction

  6. Putin is a war criminal just like Hitler.

  7. I think the whole world wants to see Biden go. I'm Dutch, and because Biden wanted to provoke Russia into the Ukraine war, my taxmoney now goes to weapons for the terrorist Zelensky regime. I think a future US president should stop meddling in foreign politics.

  8. The entire conflict was incited by Biden. It's the truth but the Biden regime will never admit guilt.

  9. Because the only rebuttals U.S knew is "Freedom" and "Democracy" which is pretty stupid.

  10. Get out of Ukraine that's the best way! Ukraine belongs to Ukrainians and never harm Russia!

  11. The truth is that Putin started the war to stay in power. But Russia acts like the fox claiming that the mouse tried to eat it.

  12. russos vão para casa, enganem a morte, não precisam de matar, os vossos ditadores não sabem o que fazer, salvem a russia se não serão aniquilados quando forem empurrados contra os restantes humanos, os vossos ditadores matão pela fome e pela guerra, não têm noção do que irá acontecer contra a Ucrânia quanto mais contra o resto do mundo….

  15. I saw a sign today in a car , Unable putin wishes, or something like that, nobody should trust putin in what he wants. LOL.

  16. I think the people of Russia would like to see a fresh and constructive new president.

  17. All these ukrainian bots can type good but won’t fight…

  18. Ja Putin is a matured Stateman, we need cooperation between nations not leaders who are anti peace always wars, wars like Democrats

  19. Well, let's all be sure to vote for the presidential candidate endorsed by Vladolf Pootler. He's definitely got the United States' best interests in mind.

  20. Then work with me, end the war.
    Archangel Michael

  21. America is a bunch of colonizers who colonized the aboriginal people..

  22. You got paid to say that . Domestic Democrat

  23. Zelensky didn't try to prevent this conflict through diplomacy because he lacks honor and integrity.

    In 2014 there was a coup. Soon after, there was a massacre in Odessa (dozens of people were burned alive). Ethnic Russians living in Ukraine were treated as subhuman. Their language and culture was being oppressed. A civil war broke out due to the rise in ethnic tensions. For 8 years the Ukrainian military was indiscriminately shelling civilians living in Donbas.

    If Zelensky honored the Minsk agreement and pledged neutrality, none of this would have happened. The 8 year civil war would have ended and Donbas would have remained part of Ukraine. War is the ultimate failure of diplomacy.

    Zelensky, Poroshenko, Merkel and Hollande admitted that Ukraine had no intention to honor the Minsk agreements.

    Who didn't want peace? Who advised against the 2022 peace talks in April? Hint: someone visited Zelensky in Kiev at that time.

    Russia's national security was compromised once nato began to expand eastwards. Russia clearly stated that Ukraine joining nato was a red line (November 2021) and unfortunately this concern was never taken seriously. The Russians openly stated: if nothing changes, we will be forced to act in order to defend our national security. Enhancing the national security of one country at the expense of another is unacceptable. The Russians have legitimate security concerns.

    20th September, 2021. Ukraine launched military drills with US and nato.

    NATO is not a defensive alliance. Nato illegally bombed Yugoslavia (a direct violation of the U.N. Charter).
    We should never forget what they did to Libya, Afghanistan, Iraq etc.

    Who blew up the pipeline causing an environmental disaster?

    Zelensky banned all opposition and arrested a leading priest.

    Zelensky also tried to invoke article 5 under false pretenses. Remember the incident in Poland.

    Ethnic Russians living in Ukraine were treated as subhuman. Their language and culture was being oppressed.
    Poroshenko said, “Our children will go to schools and kindergartens—theirs will hide in the basements”.

    Russians will never forget the 2014 Odessa massacre. The whole world needs to know about it.

    Why was Denis Kireev eliminated? He was a member of Ukraine's negotiating team during the peace negotiations. He wanted to help his country.

    Ukraine has a hit list. They target artists, journalists and ordinary citizens. Hundreds of children are on this list. (13 year old Faina Savenkova was placed on this list.)
    Pink Floyd's Roger Waters is on this list. Jimmy Dore (American stand-up comedian, podcaster) and Aaron Maté (Canadian writer and journalist) are on this list.

    There is evidence that Ukrainian troops have been indiscriminately shelling civilians in Donbas. (they used petal mines and targeted areas where there was no military presence).

    The azov troops trapped in the azovstal steelworks in Mariupol used human shields. They refused to allow civilians to leave despite of humanitarian corridors being present. Russia held a proposed cease fire in order for the civilians to leave, but azov would not allow the civilians to leave.

    Ukraine has committed many acts of terrorism (car bombs and other forms of assassination). Darya Dugina (journalist) RIP.

    The first terrorist attack on the Kerch bridge killed the truck driver and the individuals in the adjacent car (innocent civilian victims).
    The second terrorist attack on the Kerch bridge killed two parents and severely injured their young daughter.

    I have done a lot of research and it took me a long time to write this comment. I have stated a lot of facts and I have given my honest opinion.
    I have provided a brief summary of events that took place. In order to explain this whole situation in great detail, a book would need to be written.
    Hopefully someone will write an UNBIASED book, stating facts and allowing the readers to form their own judgments. Everything I said can be fact checked and verified.

  24. Russia articulated its strategies and objectives very well. There are regular briefings and Putin himself regularly spends hours and hours answering questions. Those who have ears will hear it. And Russia's objectives are changing dynamically. Russia made it clear that any military threats towards them on their borders will be dealt with. And if this requires demilitarizing all of Ukraine and securing borders all the way into Eastern Europe then this is what Russia will do and will do it successfully. Russia cannot fail in this mission because this will lead to use of tactical and strategic nuclear deterrent and Russia will of course use it as and when this becomes necessary. There is no possibility and never was a slightest possibility of achieving a "military" victory over a nuclear superpower such as Russia. Any demented EU officials that talk otherwise simply show their complete contempt towards their own countries and safety of their own people.

  25. Russia's copy of Hitler waiting for America's copy of Stalin? Good luck with that one…
