Zelensky knocks annexation as ‘Russian farce’
The Hill ^ | 10/03/2022 | ZACH SCHONFELD

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky called Russia’s annexation of four Ukrainian regions a “farce” on Sunday.

“Recently, someone somewhere held pseudo-referendums, and when the Ukrainian flag is returned, no one remembers the Russian farce with some pieces of paper and some annexations,” Zelensky said in his nightly address.

“Except, of course, law enforcement agencies of Ukraine,” he continued. “Because everyone who is involved in any elements of aggression against our state will be accountable for it.”

Russia on Friday annexed four regions in Ukraine’s east and south, a major escalation in the seven-month war after Russian President Vladimir Putin called up 300,000 reservists and ramped up his threats of using nuclear weapons.

Zelinsky, whose entire family is now living in Florida in their $$$ multi-million estate has a big bark when the United States is financing the entire fiasco to the tune of $$$ muti-billions and our Navy seals just blew up the Russian Nord Stream pipelines one of their primary sources of income.

When the hammer finally falls, and the Russians decide to do something really bad to retaliate... Zelinsky and all the tough talkers here will be singing a different tune. We are following a senile old fool into oblivion. This is not a situation that can be “won”. Anyone who is going along with this lunacy is crazy themselves.

And judging by their posts, 99% are on Free Republic.com. They intend for Lying Joe Biden to continue to receive his graft money through Ukraine no matter the cost.

Given our success in Afghanistan, I’m sure we are prepared. /sarc.

“Crazy Ivan.”

You know, maybe he is crazy. But, don't forget he has the largest nuclear arsenel on the planet and with minimal effort has captured 20% of Ukraine territory and saved countless lives from being killed by the clown Zelensky.

So, sure. You keep supporting a leader who launched sanctions that have totally backfired on us and who barely knows his name on any given day.

Frankly, if I was looking for someone to protect my country, it sure as hell would not be Zelensky the clown or a bumbling old fool who does not know he's in this world.

You pick for yourself -- not me!

And Zelynskyy’s telling Congressional reps to shut up whenthey ask questions about how US taxpayer $$ are being spent in UK is indicative of a corrupt politician too close to a microphone.
Piss off, Z. May you get the Mussolini/Gaddafi treatment.

A few here are eager to submit to threats, setting the precedent that America will submit and shut up if a nuke threat is made.

You people who are willing to take us to the brink of nuclear war just to show everyone how big your balls are total lunatics. I would actually be for locking you people up in insane asylums for being a threat to the western world.

If Russia and Red China, and in time Iran and North Korea, and other states can tell America and NATO, do not supply weapons to the countries we are invading, or we will nuke you, and we obey their command, then it is all over.

Can you tell me how we got here and whose fault it is? I already know and it’s why I am wholeheartedly against this entire charade. It’s why I look down on you people who are for this extremely dangerous charade with such utter disdain.

Only lunatics think like you.

No one is suggesting America submit to a threat that does not exist. The nuke talk needs to die.

Putin is right. We have become an Empire of lies.
