  1. You all say that the Russians are weak, but you are still afraid of us, like the devil is afraid of the cross. Soon there will be no Ukraine with your chain Nazis. The Russian world will be everywhere and thanks to this, all the people of the earth will be equal, even the poorest countries will be fed, because we will tear you away from the feeder and divide everything equally among everyone.You are concerned about global warming, minorities, abortion, ecology, but none of you even thought that your well-being, your comfortable life is the result of the poverty of the countries around you. You can send billions to the Nazis and not help countries that really need it, you are evil. We will fix it soon! Let there be a Russian world!

  2. I really have great respect and admiration for the Ukrainian President, Zelensky and Ukraine for what they had to endure and what they are still enduring which is testing the boundaries for what most people can ultimately endure. I am so glad you obtained the much needed military support however it's far from over until Ukraine is established as a "Sovereign" country. Sending you tons of prayers and angels.

  3. Who isn't going to welcome 40 billion dollars in financial backing?
    Give We the People some too while Congress is at it. Make Ukraine repay Us for helping them.

  4. It’s 2023 & our government still puts other countries before it’s own citizens.

  5. You can have the cup though, should have asked though.

  6. But, you sided with america

  7. Russia is using 50,000 to 60,000 artillery shells everyday. There are now 1,000 Ukrainian Nazis dying everyday. An estimated 450,000 Ukrainians are already dead. Bakhmut will fall soon as Ukrainian Nazi there are running out of ammunitions and some does not even have a single weapon. Ukrainian Nazis are no much for the Wagner Group of Russia. New Fighting vehicles from the West will only be target shooting for Russian artillery guns.

  8. keyboard warrior complaints don't matter, you're not in power. Keep crying more aid will be sent.

  9. The population of Ukraine has never had self-awareness. And there is no him. And there won't be one. And don't need it. The population of Ukraine, as well as Ukraine itself, exclusively exist as a lesson to the world.

  10. I don't trust Zelenski.Jis wife went to Paris and put down 40,000 euros on personal stuff.We need to pull out of Ukraine.No hope for Ukraine without ISA billions of help.Why in history,US leaders are the 3 stooges going to Ukraine.Sober up leader,it's time to get out.Devistation not victory in the end.No one is going to oust Putin from his job.Jesus loves you.

  11. This man knows the truth on the Biden's

  12. Translation: “I want to thank the United States and Germany for entering this war as ‘proxy’combatants for Ukraine. Please continue to ignore your own citizens and continue to send Ukraine billions of dollars along with many more weapons so that Ukraine can continue its propaganda stories and so that I can continue to purchase designer olive-drab shirts that help me look like the effective leader that I really am not.”

  13. I’m so sick of the far right troll and his lies.

  14. It's just a waste of money. Ukraine already lost most trained and motivated soldiers along with almost all hardware it had before the war. Its army is a shadow of its former self at the beginning of the war. It accounts for catastrophic increase in military casualties along with inadequate erratic Zelenskyy and his nutty tactic of constantly throwing poorly trained (most don't have any training whatsoever; lucky ones have 5-week training at best. So poor fellows are just half-baked cannon fodder) Ukrainian reserves into a meat grinder and holding on to disadvantageous positions until it's too late. Zelensky banned marking of soldiers’ graves with Ukrainian flags (many bodies are deliberately left where they perished without a burial, it helps Zelenskyy not to pay even a meagre compensation to the families of the "missed in action"). Endless forests of flags at cemeteries across Ukraine proved to be too scary and demoralizing for those still desperately trying to escape forced conscription and bribe their way out of Zelenskyy dictatorship. Mass summary executions for attempted surrender or unauthorized retreat just cause further demoralization and despair. Bakhmut is just the last instance of this insane tactic.

  15. Like how it’s so easy for other countries to bash America for military things but they haven’t been to war yet and will be doing the same

  16. Ukraine is corrupted and Zelensky want the war to go on to keep asking for money, Don't trust Zelensky. Zelensky rejected ceasefire and peace.

  17. Freedom isn't free, go get the Russians for us both Ukraine.

    Anyone against this Noble support doesn't really care about America.

  18. 🇺🇸🇺🇦🇺🇸🇺🇦🇺🇸🇺🇦🇺🇸🇺🇦🇺🇸💙💛💙💛💙💛STAY STRONG UKRAINE!!! USA GOT YOUR BACK!! 🙏⭐GOD'S GOT YOUR BACK!! ⭐🙏 BLESSED WILL BE YOUR VICTORY!! 💛💙💛💙💛💙🇺🇸🇺🇦🇺🇸🇺🇦🇺🇸🇺🇦🇺🇸🇺🇦🇺🇸

  19. Now that congress is back is session they need to get busy and vote to give another $20 billion to this noble man.
