This is about russian imperialism
Zelenskyy was elected after maidan with 73% of the vote.
I guess you want to take away the agency of the Ukrainian people.
Meanwhile, russia just lies and lies and lies.
A Russian mobilized man was given two buckets of carrots and a bag of onions instead of 3 million rubles for his being wounded.
Oleg Rybkin, a mobilized man from Volgograd region, was denied payment of 3 million rubles ($32,600) after being wounded. Local authorities gave his family two buckets of carrots and a bag of onions instead, his wife Irina told Mozhem Obyasnit.
According to her, 45-year-old Rybkin was drafted to the front on September 25, 2022, just four days after Russian President Vladimir Putin announced mobilization. The summons was handed to the man at his job. Two hours after his arrival at the military enlistment office, he was sent to the firing range without a medical examination. The training lasted about three weeks, and by the end of October, Rybkin was already in the trenches on the front line.
Ten years ago, Euromaidan - our revolution - began. Fingers broken by policemen, sleepless nights, bitter cold. As soon as we won, the war began, which continues to this day.
I hope we can give our children a life that's a little more peaceful.

Magyar says the drones he ordered on 13 Dec are now blocked on the Polish border despite claims that no border blocks are present. He now has to urgently search and buy drones from within Ukraine as Russian EW is very effective in Krynky.

Russian Igor Salikov an ex Wagner Mercenary and Officer is to testify at The Hague on atrocities carried out on Ukrainians within Ukraine.
Salikov said he took part in Russia’s 2014 annexation of Crimea, as well as the 2022 invasion of Ukraine, where he said he had witnessed Moscow’s role in stoking a separatist conflict in the eastern regions of Donetsk and Luhansk, “atrocities against civilians” and child abductions.

Yeah, so for some reason Putin decided to start making excuses again today, perhaps the feedback from his 4-hour conference was not as good as he had hoped?
Apparently, he was doing nothing in Ukraine in 2014, just observing, but then "was forced to intervene!".
And his BEST next decision was to wait another 8 years until deaths came down to almost zero in the Donbass, and kill another 500,00 people, and counting.
Who is buying these pathetic excuses? Just admit you're a maniac who wants to kill, kill, kill. It will be better for eveyrone.
Olena Vladymyrets, 94, from Vinnytsia, and her daughter Nina made 4,000 trench candles for our Defenders.
The women make trench candles at home, and volunteers provide the materials.
Olena survived two wars and the Holodomor. She wants there to be no need for trench candles.
