Russia is 100% capable of striking Ukraine anywhere it wants, including whatever bolt hole Zelenski crawls into. Why they didn’t decapitate the regime in Kiev early is anyone’s guess, but maybe they didn’t expect the 2024 Ukraine elections to get cancelled and he would get removed that way.

Russia never had air superiority in Ukraine, and never had the ability to drop bunker busting bombs on Kyiv from bombers. Even if Russia knew where Zelenski's command bunker was, it couldn't hit with big enough conventional bomb's to kill anyone. Using nukes would have other consequences, and belie the claim that Ukies are really Russians who don't know it yet. It has shown little ability for pinpoint airstrikes with its missiles, and that ability has decreased greatly the longer the war has continued. What Russia has done with its missiles is target hospitals and civilian apartment buildings. Russia's missile warfare has been a series of war crimes, but not militarily impressive.

Biden tried to evacuate Zelensky at the beginning of the war. Right?
Zelensky refused and said he would not go anywhere, staying in Ukraine to fight.
Zelensky IS in Ukraine. Right?

Those are the facts. If you don’t accept these facts you are desperately deceiving yourself. For what gain?

“Sure buddy...Zelenski didn’t need no stinking green screens

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Ah, you didn’t answer. Shocking. It’s almost like you pro-FSB comedians never have arguments — just memes, out of context description of photos, and conspiracy theory starter kits.

Unless… wait. Are you a flat-earther too? Because then I totally get it. You’re free to say literally any crazy thing and expect applause from your echo chamber.

Or maybe you’re one of those “intellectual rebels” who believe a missile hit the Pentagon and 9/11 was just a high-budget Hollywood project funded by... the U.S. government? Impressive...

THE GREEN SCREEN:

Now about your recycled, green-screen fever dream that’s been going around since the FSB started playing budget Spielberg:

The photo in question was taken in Kyiv, during Zelenskyy’s filming for a hologram that was shown at European digital tech conferences.
Confirmed by director Martin Williams of Talesmith to the AP.
Captured on June 14, 2022 - behind the scenes of a documentary project.
The green screen was built specifically for volumetric capture of an AR hologram.

So unless your tinfoil hat gets better reception than Williams’ direct email to the Associated Press, maybe… just maybe sit this one out.

At worst: Stop playing marionette for the FSB.
At best: Put down the whiskey and slowly back away from the internet.

Spare us the Western intelligence pap...this short video made at the time explains the Zelenski green screen "controversy" quite well and folks here can decide for themselves what to believe.
