If you do not personally come to the conclusion that it is time to end this war, Ukraine will continue fighting for its existence. We will have those who support us.
But you, too, will have to fight much harder for your own existence — not Russia’s, but your own. And this is not a threat from me or from Ukraine. It is a fact of Russian history that you know well: when Russia grows tired, change comes.
We can work toward that fatigue.
You can stop your war.
Eternal memory to all those whose lives were taken by this war.
Glory to Ukraine!
Open Letter
To the President of the Russian Federation
From the President of Ukraine
When you came to power in Russia more than 26 years ago, many people in Ukraine viewed you positively. That is how it was. But that is now in the past.
Now, the overwhelming majority of Ukrainians view it positively that our long-range drones paid a visit to the opening of your forum in St. Petersburg, covering a distance of more than 1,000 kilometers. As you know very well, that distance is not the limit of our capabilities.
“So now tell me, what the f*ck do you need this f*cking war for?”
— a Russian soldier, the only survivor from his unit, is starting to ask the right questions.
He wants this video to be seen by as many people as possible.
Hey, western commie!
Nothing makes me laugh harder than a guy or a girl tweeting about "great communism" from a $1,400 phone, in a 3-bedroom suburban house, with a fridge full of food.
Comrade.
You would not survive week one.
And here is why.
In the USSR you couldn't just quit your job to "find yourself." Not working was a crime. Literally. They called it "social parasitism." They put the future Nobel laureate Joseph Brodsky on trial for it. Your podcast about late-stage capitalism would've gotten you five years.
You picture yourself as a commissar. You'd be in a queue. Three hours. For maybe bread. The commissars were a tiny elite with their own shops, their own hospitals, their own everything. You weren't invited. You'd be the guy informing on his neighbor for an extra ration.
That brave political take you posted today? In 1949 USSR deported 20,000+ people to Siberia in three days for a lot less - for just being LOCALS. Whole families. Children. Cattle cars. You'd have lasted until your first "actually Stalin was misunderstood" reply landed in front of the wrong person.
The gulag wasn't an edgy metaphor. Roughly 18 million people passed through it. Unpaid labor, -40°C, digging canals nobody needed. But please, tell me more about how you'd "organize the workers" from the group chat.
Things get bad and you want to leave? You can't. There's a wall. There are dogs. There are guards who shoot. The whole design was that you couldn't go.
The people romanticizing it from a comfortable suburb can always book a flight home. People in the USSR couldn't even move to the neighbouring city without permission.
So wear the Che shirt. Read rge Red Book by Mao. Enjoy the iPhone he'd have confiscated, the internet he'd have banned, and the free speech that lets you praise the exact system that would have shot you for using it.
Some of us actually remember how it went.
Overnight, the Ukrainian Unmanned Systems Forces targeted and struck the Admiral Grigorovich, a Admiral Grigorovich-class guided-missile frigate with the Russian Navy’s Black Sea Fleet, with a number of one-way attack drones while the ship was pierside at the Port of Novorossiysk. Damage to the ship is currently unclear, however, multiple fires were seen by residents burning along the water in Novorossiysk.

🤭 The reaction of Russian Z-patriots to Denis Kapustin’s ‘resurrection’ is nothing short of delicious! Enjoy! 🔽
“As for the resurrection of the boss of the banned RDK, Denis Kapustin, there was once a rumor right before the offensive that Zaluzhnyi was dead—and he turned out to be alive and screwed up. Well, alive—so what use is that?
Now it turns out Kapustin isn’t dead either, but alive—and a disgraced clown who’s shit himself.”
— Evgeny Norin, Russian historian/writer
“When the first reports appeared at the end of December about Kapustin being eliminated—supposedly killed by a drone strike in Zaporizhzhia—we immediately wrote that it all looked far too neat to be true.
At the time, we assumed that the traitor had been taken out by the Ukrainians themselves.
Too many people there disliked his debauched lifestyle and the “heroism” he displayed in expensive restaurants.
But the reality turned out to be even more mundane. No one killed him. They hid him somewhere far away and came up with a fairy tale about foolish Russia falling for a GUR setup and gifting Ukraine 500,000 bucks. Half a million for this clown? Don’t make me laugh.”
— Aleksandr Kots, Russian war blogger
“The outcome of the war is in no way affected by whether Denis Kapustin is dead or alive. Just as it isn’t affected by the existence of the RDK.
TikTok-fighting Nazis are hardly a serious strike force. I even thought at one point that his Ukrainian handlers had shot Kapustin themselves, since he’s not much use anyway.
Turns out they didn’t even shoot him. Did they spare a bullet?
The funniest part of this whole story is that most Ukrainians were actually happy about Kapustin’s “death,” because he irritated them so much.
Now he’ll probably find it interesting to read everything that’s been written about him online.
In Russia, meanwhile, people also made plenty of ironic jokes about Kapustin’s death—in the vein of “lived sinfully, died ridiculously.”
Still, it takes real effort to behave in such a way that you’re equally despised in both Moscow and Kyiv, and that Russian soldiers say roughly the same things about you as Ukrainian ones do.”
— Andrei Medvedev, Russian journalist
“It’s interesting—who actually received those “half a million dollars” that were supposedly paid for the liquidation of the “RDK leader”? And who was the one who ordered it?
Budanov is keeping silent about this—apparently, he hasn’t come up with the next chapter of his story yet.”
— Tsargrad TV
“As expected, the traitor and collaborator, the leader of the terrorist organization RDK, Denis Kapustin, staged his death with the help of another terrorist organization, the “GUR of Ukraine.”
This scum has been hanging around Kyiv for a long time, has not taken part in real combat operations for ages, and never comes anywhere near the range of Russian FPV drones.
He is guarded by four bodyguards, and his place of residence is constantly changing.
This talking puppet, who has Jewish roots but pretends to be a Nazi, is needed by Ukrainian fascists solely for media support of their information-psychological operations about ‘the right kind of Russians.’”
— TG channel “Zаписки Vетерана”
“Over the course of 2025, the RDK ceased to be even a marginally noticeable factor.
The unit never had any real combat value to begin with, and by the end of the year even its media presence had disappeared.
In this context, the staged “assassination attempt” looks like a cheap attempt to return to the information space.
And judging by the expression on Kapustin’s face in the enemy footage, by the way, it’s clear that he is well aware of the reaction to his “death” in so-called Ukraine: only the lazy didn’t spit on his empty “grave”—and that was true on both sides.”
