Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky blasted Swiss food and beverage giant Nestlé for maintaining business ties to Russia despite its invasion of his country.

“‘Good food. Good life.’ This is the slogan of Nestlé. Your company that refuses to leave Russia,” Zelensky said during a televised address to the people of Switzerland on Saturday.

Why didn’t he “blast” Novartis for selling medicines there?

Russia lost McDonald’s, Pizza Hut, Coca-Cola and Phillip Morris cigarettes; their national public health is probably going up.

I think we can see that Zelensky is truly a comedian...looking for OUR BOOTS on the ground and OUR weapons.

He forgets...every one of his people likely have RUSSIAN ROOTS and this really is a civil war which has been in progress since 2014.

It's apparent the people have no say.

In Crimea...the people did have a say...and they voted to return to the Motherland. The Ukrainian soldiers recognized the status of the Crimean People and would not fight them.

In other words...The people of the Donbass region should also have a say....They were not even allowed to vote when Zelensky ran.

Brandon will undoubtedly makes things worse and we'll wind up with another Vietnam.

You may not like what I wrote...To take on Russia...over Ukraine?? How dumb would we be??

Ikea, too. There was a Black Friday style brawl over the last pot on the day Ikea closed in Russia.

The attached video goes over the full list of sanctions imposed by governments and then, starting at about 2:36 the list of companies that had carved out exemptions that went ahead and closed their Russian operations anyway. Absolutely amazing! Nestle is going to be very lonely.

Its the equivalent of people being badgered into saying "Black Lives Matter."

what's interesting is that in Ukraine, on one end of the spectrum, the Russians are engaged in war, while we, at the other end are engaged in a hybrid leftist-woke social engineering movement.

Pretty noticeable. He's taking his orders from Brandon.

I hope someday he realizes he's getting his own people killed for no reason. Acknowledge Crimea and Donbass and move on.

Both had a special Independent Status. And dumb a** Kruscheve scre*** the pooch when he gave Crimea, with a majority Russian Population, to Ukraine.
