Dmitry Medvedev, deputy chairman of Russia's Security Council, said on Saturday that nobody could guarantee that the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv would survive to see May 10 if Ukraine attacked Moscow during World War Two victory celebrations on May 9.

That would be you and your fellow Zeepers.
Then why didn’t you finish the war, comrade?
Putin must be the most pathetic dictator on earth.
But I didn’t support Ukraine calling off an election. You brought up parades.
Zelensky is a dictator and Ukraine a tyrannical hellhole that we got ourselves linked thanks to Obama and Biden.
Everything you claim Putin and Russia is guilty of IS true of Ukraine and Zelensky.
Our meddling in Ukraine, from the start, has been about our elite enriching themselves. Biden, the Clintons and George Soros made a fortune in Ukraine. That is scum YOU'VE ALIGNED YOURSELF WITH.
Well at least I’ll never align myself with scum like Putin and his worshippers.
It really doesn’t matter what names you call Ukraine. Russia is supposed to be a superpower, and Putin has slaughtered his people fighting Ukraine for three years.
He’s a disgrace, as is anyone who defends him.
I brought up pride parades, which apparently are more important to Ukraine than holding elections. Elections during war...Nope!! Pride parades during war...A-Okay!!
No one cares if they have a parade. You must be so afraid of gays, do you wear a butt protector?
There’s a war. Russia has Muslims from Africa, and North Koreans killing Europeans.
And you’re fascinated by a stupid gay parade.
Maybe you should have a butt protector since you talk out of your arse.
That’s called my underwear.
We haven't given a penny of taxpayer dollars to Russia and I certainly have no desire to see us do so.
Are only interest in Ukraine has been our elite sucking money out it while taking actions that have us closer to WW III and nuclear than were during the Cold War.
Your case of Russian Derangement Syndrome is a far greater danger to this country than Russia is.
They are the same ones behind pushing mass migration and open borders and the green energy agenda onto Western countries. As well as being behind the horrible trade deals this country has been subjected to.
Globalists, you dumb freep, are the biggest threat to this country and the Western world. Our survival depends on defeating them.
That you're obsessed with Russia, who is fighting the same forces, is laughable STUPID.
False flag, anyone?
I’m not even remotely obsessed with the pig sty known as Russia.
But yeah, we know Putin will be allowing opposition parties - never.
All you’re doing, because you’re a propagandist liar, is bringing up things that conservatives don’t like, and then lying through your ass that Ukraine is behind all that stuff, and Russia isn’t.
The war in Ukraine has absolutely zero to do with gay pride parades, and all the other smokescreens you throw up for Putin.
Leftist Europeans suck, but the murdering psycho Putin is even worse.
But you’ll do this all night to defend your Russian Fuhrer.
Russia is fighting my enemies? That must explain why every other week they brag that they have their nukes aimed at us.
Are you Tokyo Rose’s grandson?
Russians consider May 9 as victory as the Germans had to resign the surrender the day after they signed it at Eisenhower’s headquarters. They see surrendering to Russia as the only victory, the one with the western allies was phony in their eyes.
You refuse to accept that a color revolution was designed. That the coup d'état was designed. That the hostilities against the Russian speaking Ukrainians, who all knew how to speak Ukrainian as well.
FACT: Putin is waging a war of conquest.
The facts actually refute your claim. But you are too obtuse to either see or accept the actual facts. Putin was looking for a peaceful end to the hostilities in eastern Ukraine for many years via the Minsk Accords. Which Angela Merkle herself admitted were just a ruse to are & train Ukraine's military.
The fact that all of that took place long before Putin even began to amass troops along their border with Ukraine. But connecting the dots apparently is not your forte.
Then Biden turned around and threw the U.S. border wild open, and even facilitated bring in illegal immigrants via airplanes. You people need a brain, because apparently you currently lack a functioning one. I bet you even believe that Biden received 81 million votes.
Nope, all that was needed to be done was to claim neutrality. They had even signed a trade agreement with the EU after running their president out of Ukraine. Ukraine would have not lost land to Russia, Ukraine would have not lost any of their men to the meat grinder that ensued, and also cost many Russian men their lives as well. But they didn't, because they wanted the military conflict with Russia, fully expecting that NATO would jump into the breach. But that was not the goal. The goal was to have Ukraine take on Russia by itself, and then rely on American taxpayers to supply all of their military & monetary needs.
First Europe commits suicide by inviting in Muslims by the millions, then it provokes Russia into a proxy war. Trump tried to find a peaceful resolution to stop the kinetic conflict, and Europe throws a wrench in it. So, let them deal with Russia.
We are 37 trillion dollars in debt, and our status as the world's reserve currency was then, and is now even in worse jeopardy, because our legislature is incapable of creating a budget that stops adding trillions to the deficit spending problem that is just barreling this nation into bankruptcy. Europe is actually already there.
But Russia had no right to demand that / make that a prerequisite for peace.
Your preposterous statement is comparable to saying that WWII didn't have to happen - if only the Allies had acceded to Nazi Germany (and later Soviet Russia) invading, dismembering, and annexing Poland.
In actual fact: All that was needed was for Putin to order his troops to remain in their barracks.
All that was needed was for Putin to mind his damn own business!

“Russia”
Is a whore with HIV.
Is Trump wrong to be concerned about China having control of both ports of the Panama Canal?
Is it wrong that we U.S. citizens are concerned about the criminal elements that were allowed in this country by Biden, along with many illegals that were never vetted and we do not know who these people really are or what they real intents are?
Is our concern about the communist threat nothing more than paranoia?
Was it wrong for Sweden, Norway, and the other nations to claim neutrality during WWII?
The point is that sometimes reality dictates that a neighbor sometimes is better off adopting a tactic that eliminates the friction, rather than stoke it, in order to remain whole themselves. Because defusing the friction is almost always more beneficial than is to continue stoking the friction.
We could have eased that friction also by merely taking NATO expansion off of the table, and continue bring Russia further & further into the family of nations, instead of continuously trying to isolate them and continue the belligerent hostile attitude towards them. After all, as I said they had made very positive strides since the collapse of the Soviet Union.
Problem is that you see using force as the only option to defuse the friction. Ukraine brought much of this upon themselves. Which doesn't absolve Russia completely, but it also doesn't absolve Ukraine either. Both played a role in creating the problem. Sadly, we played a major role in creating that problem as well.
It's time that you look at the issue honestly.
Only then will you begin to see that you followed evil to foment more evil, instead of seeking the better option.
Until then, it is worthless for us to communicate.
All that was needed was for Putin to mind his damn own business!
Typical myopic view. As the leader of Russia he was indeed minding his own business, but it was none of our business, other than to seek a peaceful resolution, but again you are unable to see that what happened was by design. Until you acknowledge that reality, then you will be constantly cajoled into accepting unnecessary wars as being necessary.
What is necessary is to bring conflicts to a peaceful resolution as quickly as possible, because then & only then can it achieve the best outcome for both nations.
