Hey MSNBC, you know no one believes you any more, right?
40 billions later and that pathetic country is still losing.
Ukraine will be a 3rd world country and in debt forever. 🤡 government just selling weapons
It's Putin's fault gas is 5 to $7 and food prices doubled and the and somehow it's Putin's fault says Biden. Gas and food was going through the roof the day Biden attacked AMERICAN Oil so we would have to buy Solar panels from China to keep hunters sneaky energy deal with China going because if they don't go through with what he did the Chinese will let out Hunter Biden's truth and treason.
Ukraine’s 1st lady is very attractive 🥰
as a democrat very disappointeded about the hosting of this person . Powerfull remarks ..how so ? Where is the critical journalism? Are we now suddenly glorifying a country that was always know to be corrupt,ultra nationalistic and very disfunctional ? Who is really in charge in Ukraine ? Back with Iraq I believed media reports but not any longer, it is more showbizz than anything else .Shallow and with plenty drama . Whilebeing based here in europe it is clear to me that this proxy civil war is misunderstood by the west. Unfortunately several NATO countries ,lead by the US helped laying the foundation for the civil war and the following direct Ukrainian russian conflict . not a fan of Russia but we have acknowledge the full context and circumstances which in the main stream media is completely left out. The US and NATO need to stop supporting this conflict and instead demand negotiations and peace. Have we not learned anything ?
Is she one of the girls in Hunter Biden's video?

Terminator Elena. Give her nuclear weapon, Himmars for her son and clean bulletproof vest for her husband to protect little girl in the stroller, killed by Ukrainian anti aircraft missile debris.
And don’t forget lingerie panties- a dream of all Ukrainian women.
Slava Ukraini! 🇺🇦
Russia, Ukraine, US, Nato should mutual respect each others. No one can win this war except more and more loss and deaths. Do not say of think: "i am stronger, and i am the winner". Please cooler down and accept the situation, stop now and give chance for the soldiers to go home to see their kids.
Spend all the money on building the Wall instead…we can build like 3 walls with the money we have already sent to Ukraine.
Did the General mention that Ukraine is making the US pay for every inch of territory they lose??
Where are the peace efforts? Begging money to prolong a lost war and more lost lives? So many Ukranian government officials supporting Russia? She and her husband are heartless beggars!
Olena Zelenska is such a great representative of her country. Both sensitive and courageous at the same time.
It's going to get tougher madam first lady, I wish I thought otherwise but I do not. Russia will lose eventually, this Russia can not compete but it may take a while. I sincerely want my country to do much more to help Ukraine eject the Russian's from your land, the stated goal of the current administration is to simply weaken Russia and I believe this is a huge mistake. Russia needs to lose in Ukraine in the most humiliating way possible and this needs to happen NOW!
This never would have happened with Trump all of these people the children would still be alive
Russia is preparing for a massive offensive to end this war once and for all, they will do it in the next 30 days – military observer, retired US Army Colonel Douglas McGregor
Zelensky is actually the leader now. He has an army there – nationalists who are trying to control what is left. But the truth is that the Ukrainian troops have failed – they cannot regain what they have lost. The bulk of the Russian army has been withdrawn. They've been resting and recovering for the past few weeks. They are preparing for a massive offensive to end this war once and for all. I think it's time to end this all that the Russians will do – within 30 days.
Nobody in Europe wants war with the Russians. Most of the armed forces of these countries are purely symbolic. Scenery! They haven't fought in decades. And they are definitely not ready to take the blow of the Russians. The Russian army only seemed inept, but now we see that for 150 days there has been a continuous struggle with the Ukrainian troops and their literal destruction.
So no one wants to have anything to do with this war, the Europeans are not ready to fight. I think they were following Biden's injunction that Putin's resignation should be hastened and that would cause disaster in Russia. And they believed it. Now we've got a lesson. Russia has plenty of resources, perhaps the most resource-rich country, and is not going to back down. And Putin's popularity ratings are going through the roof. After all, he defended Russia.
Who cares? Her husband is a zionist jew who is colluding with a bunch of Nazis!!!
Zelenski's whole family so brave and it's thankfully rubbing off on all Ukrainians!!!
We should not obsess over the precise boundaries and think of the ordinary people both Ukrainians and Russians who need to live as neighbors in the future far from where the first lady lives. Think how to give some land for peace in a way there can be cooperation in repairing all the damage caused by the warmakers in high places..
*Slava Ukraini! 🇺🇦
ALSO: Slava Ukraini! 🇺🇦
No Nazis
🇷🇺
NBC news will give us the full documentary.
Good interview. Slava Ukraine.
She is a lier she knows that money will go to her pocket she is a billionaire
is elena zelinska a president? where did she com from? who the heck is she?
where is the president of ukraine?
Why not Evacuate women and children from that city instead of doing interviews they can't fight anyway
I just hope helping theses crazy pple won’t back fire. Ukrainian Russian all the same. Very cruel culture. They are not exempted.
The war in Ukraine does NOT have the support of the majority of American people. The United States is being invaded at our southern border and the Biden Administration is not protecting our own country‼️ Zelenskyy is delaying the inevitable and must begin peace negotiations and stop the carnage‼️ Russia has been joined by China, Iran, Turkey, Syria and several other countries, and WILL use nuclear weapons if necessary! Russia will win the The Donbas and South Ukraine. PRAY FOR PEACE and for the innocent people of Ukraine and the innocent people of Russia. ♥️ 🇺🇦 ♥️ 🇷🇺
Ukrainian Nazis can take a hike.
Good luck with Ukraine people 👁️🙏👁️
Ukraine has to find a way to fight their own battles. This lady is delusional 🙄🤔
In the 1st gulf war they said Saddams troops were taking babieds out of incubators, never happened. It's always some war the American people are being talked into supporting. When do we call this out, and say no more? The governmetn always shoots down medicare for all, they say social security must be cut, we have record inflation and gas prices in some states. So, who's paying for this war? Where are they taking the money from, us. We're all getting fleeced and left with the bill.
It's very important to you to fight a proxy war, on behalf of the USA GOVERNMENT, against your own people
The Zelesnky's will be remembered as war criminals along with Putin when this war is over. Sending innocent civilians to a war that can't be won is evil and not negotiating makes it even more evil.
Zelenskys wife flys to the US using death stories to secure weaponry and money to keep the killing and war going….That’s pitiful
Ukrainian First Lady met with Jill ‘ Taco’ Biden and her useless husband over breakfast tacos and a side order of Covid on Tuesday morning at the White House.
