President Zelenskyy is in Druzhkivka, Donetsk region, which is about 20 km from the russian invasion battlefront. He's also visiting Slov'yans'k and Kramators'k.

Putin the "bunker dwarf" never visits the front line.

Trump, JD Vance and Steve Witkoff have never been to Ukraine.

Nazi Germany unconditionally surrendered only after it was utterly defeated by Allied forces and occupied. The Empire of Japan unconditionally surrendered only after the United States dropped two atomic bombs.

Trump is insane.

Hungary kidnapped seven Ukrainian citizens, employees of Oschadbank, yesterday. Russia kidnapped 19 Ukrainian citizens, villagers from Sopych, today.

The United States lifted oil sanctions to benefit the russian invaders.

Russia and its two proxies won't leave Ukraine alone.

Putin puppet OrbΓ‘n begged Russia to run an election manipulation operation in Hungary. It's happening now.

This is the same as when Putin puppet Trump appealed for Russia's help in 2016, 2020 and 2024 and when Putin puppet Yanukovych asked for Russia to invade Ukraine in 2014.

Militants of the russian terrorist state raided across the border and kidnapped 19 Ukrainian citizens in the village of Sopych, Sumy region. The terrorists then displayed their hostages on russian propaganda channels.

Trump’s dedicated service to Putin kills Americans.

The russian terrorist state provides military intelligence to Iran to target U.S. armed forces in the Middle East.

Militants of the OrbΓ‘n regime in Russia-ally Hungary kidnapped seven employees of Ukrainian bank Oschadbank and stole €65 million in cash and gold from an armoured car coming from Austria.

Trump cut off military aid to Ukraine to help out his boss, Putin.

The consequence of the United States assisting russian terrorists to attack Ukraine with drones was it ended up helping Iranian terrorists attack the U.S. and its Gulf State allies with drones.

The Trump regime is easing sanctions on the russian terrorist state for oil exports. India (one of the biggest financial backers of the russian terrorist state) can buy and refine the millions of barrels of russian crude oil in floating storage.

This is a huge blow to Ukraine.

The Russia-backed OrbΓ‘n regime in Hungary seized a Ukrainian bank convoy transporting $80 million in cash and gold from Austria.

The people of Iran must choose their representatives, democratically, without coercion. It's a universal human right.

Trump says he, personally, must have a role in choosing the new leader of Iran. He doesn't believe in democracy for Iranians, Americans, Venezuelans or anybody.

Trump wants Europe's help, including that of Ukraine.

That's nice. First, remove all the tariffs. Stop threatening Denmark (Greenland). Work with the European Union as an equal partner. Restore American military and humanitarian assistance to Ukraine. Oppose Russian aggression.

Recognizing its weakness countering Iranian "Shahed" drones, the United States officially appealed for help from Ukraine – the world's leader in drone warfare.

This comes after a year of Trump insulting President Zelenskyy and humiliating Ukrainians – and backing invader Russia.

Taking credit for the achievements of others …

The "Fox News" information warfare outlet in the United States stole a video from Ukraine's Wild Hornets military technology company showing their "Sting" drone interceptor in action against Russian-Iranian "Shahed" attack UAVs.

When one clerico-fascist state (the USA) goes to war with another clerico-fascist state (Iran) it's never a good thing for humanity.

Death-cult religions that glorify the "end of days" should never be in power, in any country.

Ukraine a year ago: Russia is attacking us and also the USA.
Trump regime: You suck! Why aren't you more grateful? We're cutting off all military and humanitarian aid.

Ukraine today: We can help the USA shoot down drones.
Trump regime: You suck! Freeloaders! Putin wants peace.
