KYIV, Ukraine (AP) – A sharp rise in global oil prices following Israeli strikes on Iran will benefit Russia and bolster its military capabilities in the war in Ukraine, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Friday in comments that were under embargo until Saturday afternoon.

Speaking to journalists in Kyiv, Zelenskyy said the surge in oil prices threatens Ukraine´s position on the battlefield, especially because Western allies have not enforced effective price caps on Russian oil exports.

“The strikes led to a sharp increase in the price of oil, which is negative for us,” Zelenskyy said. “The Russians are getting stronger due

The Jewish Nazi wants to keep his globalist support by throwing Israel under the bus. If he would’ve just rolled over for Putin, maybe Hamas wouldn’t have attacked Israel in 2023. Did he ever consider that?

“Russia is getting stronger”….of course, you twit. The world is watching, stealing a nation’s Sovereign wealth fund and weaponizing the USD has hurt the West beyond imagination.

The West is a ship of fools.

Well, Zel ole boy, go talk with your bros in Europe, your allies, that use Russian oil and gas. Tell them they must stop and collapse their economies for you.

Zelensky knows that this is just what the left needs to feed and foster its institutional antisemitism. It won’t be long before those deranged, insane conspiratorialists are claiming Netanyahu is a “Putin puppet” — never mind that Iran is Russia’s ally.

While Trump stumbles into Project Iran, Putin sits back and counts his oil rubles. Putin was much relieved. How to continue to develop those generation ahead missile systems and supply Iran with Iskanders, drones, and hands on technical “advice” to slaughter American boys in Project Iran and not have to borrow a dime to do it?

Thanks, Mr. President! Keep it up!

The sentiment aside, I really deplore the phrase “wrong side of history”. As an amateur historian, to me history is just facts of what happened. There is no right or wrong side of history, it just IS.

Take the Roman empire after 476 AD, ie the “Byzantine e”. Was it on the “wrong side” because it was conquered in 1453? Or the right side as it survived nearly 1000 years after losing its western components?

The phrase “wrong side of history” betrays a leftist mentality that man is advancing towards an inevitable socialist utopia.

What would hurt Russia is that is Europe turned off the gas spigots.

But that would hurt Europe…so they won’t do that.

It’s ALL about the dollars. All the time.

“The world is watching, stealing a nation’s Sovereign wealth fund “

Yes. Putin has stolen their reserve fund.

His solution? Raise the retirement age to 65. The average male life expectancy is 64!

Russian weapons output is Russian weapons factory limited.

Russia can pay for Chinese machine tools and chips for its weapons factories using gold.
