Zelensky Presents Oil Painting of War Crimes to Pope on ‘Victory Plan’ Tour
Breitbart ^ | 10/11/2024 | Breitbart London

VATICAN CITY (AP) – Pope Francis met Volodymyr Zelenskyy at the Vatican on Friday, the latest step on the Ukrainian president’s European tour to win support for his proposed “victory plan” aimed at ending the war with Russia.

The pope and the Ukrainian leader held private talks for 35 minutes. After their private meeting at the Sala della Biblioteca and the presentation of the Ukrainian delegation, Francis gave Zelenskyy a bronze plaque depicting a flower and an inscription reading: “Peace is a fragile flower.”

In turn, Zelenskyy gifted the pontiff with an oil painting portraying “The massacre of Bucha. The story of Marichka.” Bucha, a suburb northwest of Kyiv, was occupied by Russian troops shortly after the full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 and witnessed some of Russia´s worst atrocities against civilians.

Depiction of Ukrainians murdered by other Ukrainians?

Ukrainian war crimes, no less.
Bucha was staged by Ukraine after the Russians withdrew.
Some of the massacred were still wearing white arm bands ( tried to remain neutral or to surrender) and the bodies were quite obviously staged along the road.

THIS is an atrocity in itself, to use the Pope as an instrument of Ukr state security.

Theater -- costuming is crucial to the show.
My thoughts go back to the Arafat costume, presented even at the UN General Assembly. The consistency of costuming for 'create' and sustain a character's imagery is a part of theater.

Reading the Brietbart comments is amusing, as the push-back begins.

Why isn’t Zelensky wearing a turn coat?

It's awaiting him at his beautiful, new government-in-exile residence and throne room.

Wonder how many millions that painting cost U.S. taxpayers.

Z-Man keeps talking about his “Victory Plan”.
But when are the Ukies going to unleash his “Victory Plan”
Talk is cheap. Implementing is a whole lot harder.
As Z-Man will soon realize.

>>>”Shouldn’t this little goblin be running a war right now?”<<<

You noticed that, too!
The little queer dancer stays as far away from THE Ukraine as he possibly can.
The he[[ with the war.
Dressing up and parading around in his little olive costumes and going on his never-ending grifting vacations are more important.

Probably painted by famous pedo, Hunter Biden — ought to be right at home with the Pedo-defending Pope.
