    Brilliant! Ukraine is today in a better position than at any time before in the war. I hope eu can continue to increase support and by doing so create a new European defence paradigm with Ukraine at it’s core.

    Zelensky is a traitor to Ukrainians. He’s making deals with the US and helping Israel. I don’t believe we’re being told everything anymore. If the world wanted to stop Putin and help Ukraine, they would. I’m not denying reality - Russia did invade Ukraine. However, the world betrayed Ukraine in 2014 when they let Russia take Crimea. This is just an exercise in supporting military industrial complex. There was an attack in Romania just a few days ago, and NATO did absolutely nothing (and as somebody from the Netherlands it’s my duty to say - fuck Rutte, goddamn traitor).

      If Putin hadn’t decided to forcibly annex parts of Ukraine in the first place, many Russian sons would still be alive and Zelenskyy perhaps wouldn’t be seeking help from the “wrong” people (not that I think that’s an entirely valid way to think about it.)

      And as best as I can tell Zelenskyy is not in favour of the way Israel is going about what they’re doing in Palestine, and I’m sure he very much recognises the parallels with what’s happening to his own country.

        Early on Zelensky supported Israel (I remember because I was very dissapointed).

        Later on he just shut up about it, which I take it as the pragmatical position of not wanting to lose support of two large very pro-Israel allies - the US and Germany - by voicing criticism of Israel whilst at the same time not wanting to actually support Israel after it was clear they were commiting a Genocide.

        As we remember from the whole “did you even thank us” circus at the White Wouse, he is a person who has had to endure a ton of bullshit for the sake of his nation.

          Ukraine offered to help defend Iran’s neighbouring countries against drone attacks since they have experience with that. Also ukraine has issues with Israel as well, they are buying stolen ukrainian grain from russia.

            Iran is not attacking neighboring countries. They are attacking US military bases in those countries. It’s self defense. If those countries want to be US bitches, then they should reap what they sowed

              I mean, fine. Just saying what Ukraine offered. I don’t think zelensky betrayed anyone. Offering to help defend things is something else than bombing someone.

          Can’t imagine Ukraine would harbor terribly much sympathy for Iran given the tens of thousands of Shahed drones that have been bombarding their cities that were either made in Iran or based on Iranian drone designs licensed to Russia. They probably figure that if Iran was fine starting this by selling such weapons to Russia that were certain to be used on Ukraine, then turnabout is fair play. They have basically no economy in Ukraine so they’re desperate for any way to make a buck to put back into military production for fending off their gigantic neighbor, anyway.

          TRUMP attacked Iran. The rest of us want nothing to do with it. Only about 6 people support this war, and all of them are MAGA traitors

            The US state attacked Iran. They have been planning this since 1979. I do not blame American people for it. But putting the blame on only Trump lets the real culprits escape from questions unscathed.

            Trump won the popular vote. Period. You can’t have your country elect a pedonazi and then pretend like he is not your democratically elected president. He always have at least 40% of the population approval. He’s the potus and represents the US.

              All true, but It’s all about perspective. Trump won the election promising repeatedly that he wouldn’t start new wars, and would in fact end wars.

              And depending on which polls you follow, the approval rating for the attacks on Iran are as low as 27% (Reuters/Ipsos, March 2026). But all polls conclude that the majority of US citizens do not support the war.

              So this is definitely not something the US voters directly signed up for. Voting for a president is not a mandate for that president to operate on wholesale deception.

              This may come as a shock to you, but he wasn’t unanimously voted in as president. There are tens of millions of us that actively voted against him. Those that did and do support him can’t pretend like this isn’t the consequences of their actions, but the rest of us sure as shit can.

              Even among the traitors and idiots that did vote for him, even the majority of those don’t agree with his war in Iran.

              Have you have lived somewhere where you didn’t agree with your democratically elected official? It’s possible to be critical of that person’s actions and not be culpable for them.

              Unfortunately, you are correct that he does represent the US, and that’s damage that will probably outlast my lifetime, but representation doesn’t mean reflection, and his actions don’t reflect the majority opinion in the US right now.

                I voted in every election in my province/county for the past 20 years and none of the party I’ve voted for have ever been elected. I don’t like either of my Prime Ministers, federal and provincal, but they have been democratically elected and are my representatives. trump his your president, stop acting like he’s not and fix your own mess.

                  I explicitly stated that he does represent the US, but that many of us didn’t vote for him or support him. Both can be and are true. We don’t want a war in Iran, but as you’ve pointed out, Trump was democratically elected, and there are processes to stop the war. Unfortunately, it’s not anything we can kick off as citizens.

                  There are protests, but when your healthcare and that of your family is tied to your employment, missing work to protest is a good way to not have a job, income, or healthcare. It’s not a simple as, “make change happen”.

                  Generalizing an entire population is a weak and shitty argument. You can do it if you want, but it just makes you look narrow minded and out of touch with how the world actually works.

                  The whole point is that the entire US doesn’t want a war with Iran and most don’t, even those that voted for Trump in hindsight don’t want it. They fucked us and got the country to this point, but war with Iran isn’t a popular opinion regardless of past actions.
