'You have to protect us': Zelensky calls for air support from West as Russian siege continues
NY Post ^ | March 8, 2022 1:50pm | Evan Simko-Bednarski

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky continued to plead for Western assistance against Russian airstrikes Tuesday — a day after he warned that there could be dire consequences for the rest of the world if it doesn’t support the country’s fight for freedom.

“While Russians are to blame for the killings, responsibility is shared by those who for 13 days in their Western offices haven’t been able to approve an obviously necessary decision, who didn’t save our cities from these bombs and missiles — although they can,” Zelensky said.

In an interview with ABC’s David Muir on Monday night, Zelensky said Western protection of Ukraine was in democratic nations’ self-interest.

“Everyone thinks that we are far away from America or Canada,” he said. “No, we are in this zone of freedom. And when the limits of rights and freedoms are being violated and stepped on, then you have to protect us.”

Zelensky, you have already hinted you will make most of the concessions Russia wants when it comes to not joining NATO and the EU and recognizing the 2 Russian breakaway republics. Declare yourself a hero and then shut up and take the deal. Most of the Ukraine survives and you get to fight another day, if you choose to do so.

Excuse me folks if the United States has any sense,it doesn’t need Zelensky to explain the importance of Ukraine to us.

That’s certainly basic awareness our leaders should possess.

Ukraine is of vital importance and sadly if it falls some of you will find that out.

I hope WWIII doesn’t start during the SEC basketball tournament. That’s as much of a give-a-sh*t as I can muster.

He is learning a lesson way too late. Everything is cannon fodder to the globalists. He is going to be left out to dry. Sure they may fly him out of there, but it’s all over.

He's the Ukrainian version of Justine Trudeau.

Never trust the leadership of a country where the powers behind the scenes hire the court jester to be the president.

How did we survive without it when it was part of the Soviet Union then?

_____________

Actually, Joe Biden’s administration encouraged this fiasco and funded it as the oligarchs instructed. It is simply a bonus that it works to bail out their lack of leadership and record low approval numbers. Zelenskyy is able to walk outside and take selfies even though he supposedly hunted by 400 assassins from somewhere on the African continent. Anyone who believes that story when they see he broadcast where he is and even go outside for selfies is swallowing the lies hook line and sinker. Zelenskyy is installed.

Explain it to us. Without mentioning that you just want to watch the world burn.

The fallout should be minimal in these cities.

Wrong. Ukraine is of vital strategic importance to Russia’s future. Why the heck do you think the Russians are determined to stop it becoming a Nato playground.
The U.S future is in the Asia Pacific and it might have escaped your Europe obsessed mind, but there is a rising power there that intends to cut America’s balls off.
