Elon, first of all, thank you. Nobody really ever denied SpaceX’s enormous contribution to Ukraine’s defense, especially during the early days of Russia’s invasion. That deserves recognition.🇺🇦🛰️

But stop twisting the fundamental reality of this war, FFS! Russia invaded Ukraine. Not the other way around. Russia is responsible for starting this slaughter, and Russia can end its invasion by withdrawing its forces.

Ukrainians are defending their homes, their children, and their right to exist. And the recent Starlink and Starshield restrictions reportedly affected Ukrainian drones intercepting Russian attacks, not just offensive operations.

You talk about people dying in trenches and condemn those you call warmongers. But where is that same outrage directed at Putin, whose decision to invade created this catastrophe? Wanting the killing to stop is one thing. Blaming those defending themselves without holding the invader accountable is another.

Yes, you helped Ukraine enormously. Most of us appreciate that. But your past contribution doesn’t make every subsequent statement correct. You know who started this war, Elon. Stop obscuring the difference between invasion and defense bro! Not everyone is as foolish as MAGA cultists you keep trying to appease, for some stupid reason.

WHAT A FUCKING DISGRACE. AND THE WHOLE WORLD IS WATCHING.

I am absolutely furious about what is happening.

Putin asks for his gratitude to be conveyed to US First Lady Melania Trump for her efforts to help bring children home.

ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS?!

This is coming from a dictator under whose rule Russia has deported and forcibly transferred Ukrainian children, separated them from their families, imposed Russian identity upon them, and subjected them to militarisation.

And this is not something I am making up. These crimes have been documented and investigated by international institutions.

The International Criminal Court has issued arrest warrants for Vladimir Putin and Maria Lvova-Belova over the alleged war crimes of unlawfully deporting and transferring Ukrainian children.

International organisations have documented the Russification, ideological indoctrination, and militarisation of Ukrainian children under Russian occupation.

CHILDREN!

They are deprived of the opportunity to live normal lives in their own country, only to be raised within a system that justifies war against their homeland.

And after all this, Putin wants to express gratitude for “saving children”?!

How the hell does the world allow this man to appropriate the language of humanitarianism when his own state is responsible for crimes against Ukrainian children?

AND DONALD TRUMP!

I am fucking outraged by the way your administration continues to normalise engagement with Putin while Russia violates human rights, international humanitarian law, and Ukraine’s sovereignty.

You are the President of the United States of America. Your decisions and your words have consequences.

And when a dictator receives international attention and political legitimacy without accountability for his crimes, that sends a dangerous message.

UKRAINIAN CHILDREN ARE NOT TOOLS FOR DIPLOMATIC PUBLIC RELATIONS.

They are not Russian children. They are not Putin’s trophies. And they are not props for his propaganda performances.

HERE IS WHAT INTERNATIONAL INVESTIGATORS HAVE ALREADY DOCUMENTED:

UNITED NATIONS — 12 MARCH 2026

The Independent International Commission of Inquiry on Ukraine verified the deportation or forcible transfer of 1,205 Ukrainian children.

The Commission concluded that Russian authorities had committed crimes against humanity through the deportation, forcible transfer, and enforced disappearance of children.

Approximately 80% of the children whose cases were investigated had not returned.

OSCE — 9 JULY 2026

An independent expert mission documented the systematic militarisation and ideological indoctrination of Ukrainian children by the Russian Federation.

The findings describe practices aimed at erasing Ukrainian identity and imposing loyalty to the occupying power.

TORTURE FACILITIES IN KHERSON

Ukraine’s Human Rights Commissioner, Dmytro Lubinets, reported the discovery of ten detention and torture facilities in Kherson, including one with a separate cell where children had been held.

Evidence of the mistreatment and torture of children was also reported.

AND AFTER ALL THIS, WE ARE SUPPOSED TO LISTEN TO PUTIN EXPRESS GRATITUDE FOR “SAVING CHILDREN”?

THIS MUST NEVER BE NORMALISED.

The world should not be seeking expressions of gratitude from those responsible for the abduction and unlawful transfer of children.

It should be demanding the return of every unlawfully deported or transferred Ukrainian child, independent international monitoring, and accountability for those responsible.

We will not allow crimes against our children to be transformed into a beautiful diplomatic story.

We will continue speaking the truth, documenting crimes, and demanding justice.

UKRAINIAN CHILDREN MUST COME HOME. TO UKRAINE.

@elonmusk Elon, I want to tell you something as a Ukrainian.

For years, many people in Ukraine admired and respected you. I was one of them. I personally saw you as a technological genius, a visionary, someone who was building the future while others were still living in the past.

And that is exactly why your growing hostility toward Ukraine is so difficult for me to understand.

Ukraine is not a perfect country. We have corruption, political failures, and many problems. Nobody denies that. But tell me, which country is perfect?

Ukraine is also a country of incredibly talented engineers, scientists, entrepreneurs, developers, artists, and ordinary hardworking people. We build world-class technology, innovate under impossible conditions, value education, and have repeatedly shown the world what courage, resilience, and human dignity look like.

We are a country that voluntarily gave up the world's third-largest nuclear arsenal in exchange for security assurances.

We are a nation that stood up in 2014, during the Revolution of Dignity, because we refused to live under authoritarianism and Russian domination. We wanted freedom, democracy, and the right to choose our own future.

And today, we are fighting for that same freedom.

Every day, Ukrainian civilians are killed by Russian missiles, drones, and bombs. Children lose their parents. Parents bury their children. Entire cities are destroyed. Millions of lives have been shattered.

These people are not dying because of Zelenskyy. They are not dying because of Ukrainian corruption. They are dying because Putin chose to invade another sovereign nation and continues to wage a war against its people, cities, culture, and identity.

Yes, corruption must be fought. Yes, every dollar of international aid must be accounted for. Ukrainians themselves deserve transparency and justice more than anyone.

But corruption does not justify invasion. Political failures do not justify bombing children. And no amount of criticism of Ukraine changes who crossed the border with an invading army.

You seem to believe that giving up Donbas and Luhansk could bring peace. But why should we believe Putin would stop there?

He already violated Ukraine's sovereignty after promising to respect it. He took Crimea in 2014. He fueled war in Donbas. And in 2022, he launched a full-scale invasion.

What makes you think another territorial concession would finally satisfy him?

History has shown us what happens when democracies believe they can secure lasting peace by rewarding an aggressor with someone else's land.

We have seen this before, in Europe, in the years leading up to World War II.

Peace built on surrender to a dictator is not necessarily peace. Sometimes it is simply an invitation to the next war.

Elon, you are a man who talks about the future of humanity, about making civilization better, about taking humanity to Mars.

But what kind of future are we building if we accept that powerful dictators can erase smaller nations simply because they have more weapons?

Ukraine is not asking the world to pretend we are perfect.

We are asking the world to recognize that we have the same right to exist, to be free, and to determine our future as Americans do.

And one more thing: Ukrainians have never been your enemies. Many of us admired you, believed in your vision, and appreciated what Starlink made possible during the darkest days of this war.

That is why your words hurt more than you might realize.

You have enormous influence. Your voice can shape how millions of people understand this war.

I still want to believe that the man who dreams of advancing humanity can recognize the humanity of people fighting simply to survive.

It is not too late to stand on the right side of history.

Not on Zelenskyy's side. Not on any politician's side.

On the side of freedom. On the side of human life. On the side of a nation's right to exist.

That is all we are asking for.
