For my US friends - why certain things are not true:
1) Does Ukraine have issues with conscription? Yes. So is US army where recruiting targets had not been met over a number of years
2) if US companies will explore minerals Putin won’t attack. False. US embassy will give them 48 hour notice to evacuate personnel and US will later collect from russia the amount of lost investment. So this is not in any way protects Ukraine
3 Zelensky was not thankful. That’s easy. He had thank US, its Presidents and taxpayers hundreds of times. And let’s not forget - US got Ukrainian nuclear weapons FOR FREE for which is had not paid and for which it had promised to defend Ukraine’s borders. Did not happen.
@smelyansky_igor Looks like most of Europe coming in behind you all in support after yesterday. Maybe Trump needed to be the agitator! But EU should put boots on ground asap. And hey we can do a deal on your minerals rather than steal them!
@FT I think the US humiliated themselves today. Shameful and Trump seemingly playing second fiddle to Vance who lost his composure and filed the flames. Neither actually listened to what Zelensky was trying to say.
@realDonaldTrump The Kiel Institute is a German-based think tank tracking support going into Ukraine. It calculated that the United States spent $119.7bn (£94.3bn) on aid between January 2022 and December 2024. 3 times less than your fake news number of $350bn
@realDonaldTrump What an embarrassing shit show for Americans that was. The disrespect was solely in the way that you behaved towards another president of a sovereign state. Bullies looking for a victim. Hideous to watch for anyone with half an education.
