The presidential press office of Ukraine accused global media outlets of “nuclear hysteria” on Thursday for sharing remarks made by President Volodymyr Zelensky in which he asked the world for “preemptive strikes” on Russia to avoid nuclear war.
Zelensky made the remarks during a question and answer session with the Lowy Institute, an Australian think tank, on Thursday, asserting that NATO had a responsibility to “make it impossible for Russia to use nuclear weapons.

Cuba was a protectorate of United States. It wasn’t a republic or a state within the overall U.S country. You know damn well how the U.S would deal with an armed independence drive by Hawaiian kanaka. They’d crush it. Same goes for any other state that went down that path
your vulgar mouth fits your level of intelligence
democratic countries work things out. The Czeck Republic and Slovakia separated peacefully. Canada allowed Quebec to hold a referendum on independence, and the U.K. allowed Scotland. Agitation by some doesn’t necessarily mean a majority. Plus, there are numerous property issues to consider. There are also halfway positions such as autonomous zones.
But this peaceful approach does not characterize authoritarian countries. Rule by force is the old way. It’s the way of the Mongols who reduced Muscovy to vassal status for hundreds of years. It was the rule of the Czars extending Muscovy under the name of Russia, to the east and to the west through conquest.
It was by force that Russia was invaded by King Carolus of Sweden, Emperor Napoleon of France and Fuhrer Hitler of Germany. What goes around comes around.
We, the United States, seek to put an end to the endless cycle of wars of conquest. We were not very successful, after WWI, in convincing the victors to not sew the seeds of another world war with a vindictive treaty. We were successful, however, after WWII, in reconstructing Germany and Italy as democratic countries. We have come to the aid of countries being invaded or attacked by terrorists since WWII, not always successfully.
Now comes Putin with his paranoia and incompetent army, trying to re-establish the imperial ways. And you with your potty mouth.
You strain out the gnat ( some colloquial slang I use) and swallow the camel of thousands of depraved imbeciles bum punching each other on a hill.
You know damned well how Uncle Sam would deal with armed secessionists. The same way Russia dealt with chechens. But here is the rub. When albanian kooks used violence and co opted President Bent Dick to aid them , the so called desire for peaceful resolutions of such insurrections went out the window. And what terrorists was Bush saving us all from in 2003. He actually ended up destabilising Iraq and paving the way for islamic state crazies. Should have left Rumsfeld’s buddie in power
Apologies. Part of my post was conflating you with a response to another person in a different thread ( the gnat thing). By the way, I’d put my IQ up against yours anyday. But I don’t like putting a flyweight like you in with a heavy weight.
Guess what? What you think doesn’t really matter
The combined NATO nations want Russia contained and are assisting Ukraine to assure that fact.
The NATO thought controls and is what matters
Guess what! What you think doesn’t matter, you warmongering psychopath.
