Ukraine’s Zelensky Blasts ‘Weak’ NATO for Refusing to Start Air War with Russia
Breitbart ^ | 5 Mar 2022 | JACK MONTGOMERY

Posted on 03/05/2022 5:18:56 AM PST by conservative98

President Volodymyr Zelensky has slammed NATO as “weak” for refusing to enforce a no-fly zone in Ukraine, saying it will bear responsibility for future Ukrainian deaths.

Speaking at a public press conference, the Ukrainian president branded a recent NATO summit on the war in Ukraine “weak” and “confused” and evidence that “not everyone considers the struggle for freedom to be Europe’s number one goal.”

“Knowing that new strikes and casualties are inevitable, NATO deliberately decided NOT to close the sky over Ukraine,” he railed.

“We believe that NATO countries themselves have created a narrative that the closure of the sky over Ukraine would provoke Russia’s direct aggression against NATO. This is self-hypnosis. Of those who are weak, underconfident,” he claimed — although it is difficult to imagine how NATO could “close the sky over Ukraine” without directly confronting and destroying Russian warplanes, and likely Russian ground forces tasked with engaging hostile aircraft as well.

“All the people who will die starting from this day will also die because of you. Because of your weakness. Because of your disunity,” Zelensky accused.

I feel for him and his people, but if Putin’s forces don’t cross into a NATO country, there is nothing we can do.
***We can give them back their nukes, since we guaranteed their security when we took them.

Ukraine had a Membership Action Plan in place for NATO membership. Get it? Ukraine has a signed Security Assurance. Get it?

Then post your concerns about immigration on an immigration thread rather than using those concerns as a red herring.

I’m familiar with that story.

Here’s one way it could go:

The ICC announces an investigation into possible Russian war crimes in Ukraine. They find enough evidence to lay charges. Warrants are issued and Interpol is tasked with arresting the accused anytime they set foot outside of Russia proper.

Demands are made for extradition by the ICC.

Then it’s Putin’s move.

I suppose then, IF and only IF [did you see that “IF”?] and to reiterate this as a hypothetical, I say IF [hint: IF] I were a Ukrainian nationalist then I’d be targeting the US Senators who did not ratify that agreement, as well as pootypoot himself. Did I mention this was a hypothetical? You DO understand the word “if” I hope.

They’re not the only ones to find disappointment at the (nonbinding) promises of a Dem politician
***So we’ve got a dem politician who can’t even control his bowel movements tossing another dem politician’s supposedly nonbinding promises. I suppose we ought to be looking up the definition of “is”.

I think it’s a little late for that, but we never should have taken them away.

‘’hunting down’’ colonizers’’? That’s what I pay federal and state taxes to agencies and a military that’s supposed to be doing that.

So why don’t you shut the f**k and go post to somebody else.

Today The Asbury Park Press, owned by the Gannett News Organization and southern New Jersey's premiere Leftist rag has a front page article that say the reason for soaring gas prices is because of Vladimir Putin. I didn't know Putin had been given the power to overturn Executive Orders singed by an American president. When did that happen?

***Yes.

That’s what I pay federal and state taxes to agencies and a military that’s supposed to be doing that.
***Then perhaps ya should be ‘hunting down’ those whom you suppose it is that oughtta be doing that job.

So why don’t you shut the f**k and go post to somebody else.
***Why don’t you do the same, and post about illegal colonizers on an immigration thread? All that bullsnot is just a gigantic red herring so STFU yourself and post that stuff where it aint a red herring.

Well, we did.

That’s on us. We sold the Ukes down the river. There is no reason for any other country to trust us as long as some bullsnot memorandum of assurance of security is “nonbinding”.

No one ever tells a country with nukes that their efforts at self sovereignty are “nonbinding”.

“the reason for soaring gas prices is because of Vladimir Putin.”

This is like Bidet blaming the pandemic on the unvaxxed.

Demonizing the opposition is how they roll....

I just realized that your phrase would make a good tagline. You could troll the entire Free Republic with it every time you post.

So I think I will post it to the tagline page with attribution. Congratulations.
